Well, happy New Year to you if you happen to come across this blog. I always enjoy reflecting on how much I have to be thankful for in my life (amazing wife, two great dogs, etc-I could be here all night). I have barely been committing any energy to this blog as of late. I still have been playing with a bigger idea I hope to tackle for a non-profit over the medium to long term-so, if you are reading this, it is probably by accident.

I generally do not believe in doing things unless I can commit to giving my best, and it became clear to me from my efforts in 2012 that I was inefficient at best and could do much better with a better thought through strategy. I continue to read, learn, and collect statistics with the hope of honing my general ideas. I need to spend more time speaking to people more knowledgeable than I am about a lot of the issues/ideas I am bouncing around so that is my resolution for 2014.

I hope you and your family had a great holiday and wishing you the best in 2014.
