    1. Thank you. Same to you: a merry Christmas and an uneventful but prosperous New Year.

      I'm gonna have a devil of a time categorizing, listing the "Top Stories" of the year, going through the past 52 weeks.

      It's actually quite interesting to scroll through the top stories of 2011:

      I think the list is actually quite good.
