Year 29 was good, Year 30 will be EPIC

Alcatraz: Seeing this will keep you within the law

Well, well, well, three months and I haven't written anything. I've been busy ok. It's been an eventful time and I'm not going to sit here and justify myself to you readers. (I say that that there actually are some :) If you didn't forget about me and you were wondering when I would write again, well then I'm glad you are you.

2010 has come and gone and it was a pretty damn good year really. Why was it so good you ask? Well let's see...went to Cuba with 5 great people, started a great new job, played some great sports, my niece celebrated her 1st birthday, my better (much better) half kept me around for another year, I got to go to California for the first time and saw many cool things like Alcatraz and a San Francisco 49ers game.

That's just a snapshot of the highlights and there are many more things I could add, but don't need to bore you with that. So looking at that list tells me that I definitely have things rolling in the right direction.

Speaking of going in the right direction, here we are in 2011. Now if you are a believer in the ridiculousness that is the 2012 theory, then you better made this tear very EPIC!! I am not a believer in the 2012 BS but I still plan to make it epic. I don't make New Years Resolutions, because I believe they are for weak people who ned a crutch to make a change in their lives, but I do set goals, and here are some of my 2011 goals:

1. Make this the best year I can with my family and friends. You may not get to choose your family, but you don't get to buy news ones either, so make the most of the time you have with them.

2. Be successful in my new career and work my butt off to make sure it happens. Work Smart and Hard.

3. Survive my 30th birthday party in Las Vegas, Nevada. That will be the definition of Epic folks.

4. Be fiscally responsible and pay some debt so we can buy a better place to live.

I know many of you may not care about my goals for the year, so I will say this. The point is that we have to set goals that make us work and make us value what we see as important to us. Don't make resolutions, make changes when they need made and take care of those around you. We all have to share this planet, so let's Smile and Wave.

As Dewey Cox said, "Make a little music everyday until you die."

JLS aka the czar of making it happen.
