What a week, first one of the year. I am happy the downtime is behind me and relieved to be back at it. Even though I spent the entirety of the holiday up against a deadline for a book, I am still glad 2011 is here and I am moving......

I guess we could talk about this past week's weather. What's there to say, besides I hope none of you got flooded out or suffered massive property damage. For many, I guess it's almost the end of the year and they are gearing up for gatherings, the ripping open of......
