No wild New Year\u2019s Eve parties for the old guy tonight. They were fun in days past, but at my age I could break a hip\u2026<\/p>\n
Hope it\u2019s been a good year on your end.\u00a0 Has been on mine, for the most part. Survived a helicopter crash. \u00a0Welcomed a fourth grandchild. Every case I was involved in had either a favorable resolution, or a postponement requested by an opposing side not eager to face losing. I\u2019m hoping for the same in an attempted murder trial scheduled for mid-next month.\u00a0 Another year exactly the same, preferably minus near-death experiences, would suit me just fine.<\/p>\n
Resolutions? No time for it at this time last year.\u00a0 Couple years ago, resolved not to buy any new guns, but instead work on the ones I had.\u00a0 Managed to actually hold to that through third quarter 2012. 2014? Will probably just \u201ckeep on keepin\u2019 on.\u201d\u00a0 Am currently more concerned about finding more ammo than finding new firearms for myself.<\/p>\n
Have tested some new guns about to come out. Non-disclosure agreements require me to go no further on that, but will be able to share with you here in a week or three.<\/p>\n
On gun owners\u2019 civil rights issues, we can expect another contentious year.<\/p>\n
On New Year\u2019s Day, let\u2019s not forget those in our lives who didn\u2019t <\/i>have a 2013 to be grateful for.<\/p>\n
Just because I don\u2019t have any resolutions, doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t. Feel free to share those \u2013 and your hopes and predictions for 2014 \u2013 here.<\/p>\n
