Happy New Year!

We wish everyone a prosperous and safe New Year.

2014 looks to be one of those important and eventful years in history.

2013 was a mile-marker year for me. Another life's anniversary - It's great to be alive!

To all our readers, I'd like to thank you for your support and understanding. The plan is to keep things interesting and divergent. 1914 was a history changing year. It is 100 years in the future for some, it is a new a modern day for others. For me each day is a new challenge. I wonder what challenges face the world and this country starting tomorrow. Will it be ushering a new day of peace? One can only hope. I, personally see the peaceful becoming more peaceful and the hateful warmongers becoming more belligerent. There is a distinct difference between the living and the dead.

So, lets all toast in a shinny new 2014 with courageous optimism and hope for some serious positive changes for our prospective future on this planet.
