New Year's Resolutions

A Simple Choice.*

I resolve to…

Where do I begin?

Last year was, by any reasonable measure, an extraordinary one for me personally.

I started this blog, completed the development of a full billing system, and somehow managed to keep my wife from going completely mad — all at the same time.

And while I did, inevitably, get a little older, Fogy has had the curious effect of making me appear a little wiser too. With so much madness unfolding across the world, Fogy became a way to vent a frustration shared by many — those watching global events erupt while reliable information became increasingly scarce.

The real challenge was digesting all of that without simply getting fatter and fatter.

But this year is going to be different.

The world will find a more even keel. No major craziness will occur. How could it, after the sheer concentration of insanity that was 2025?

So here it is — my New Year’s resolution:

I will focus only on the positives.
I will keep the US president out of my posts.
And I challenge you, dear reader, to do the same.

Let’s get 2026 off to a good start.

And some lunatic has just kidnapped the Venezuelan president.

Other lunatics are still refusing to find common ground — prolonging wars that should already have ended.

And yet more lunatics remain convinced that their personal wealth matters more than the welfare of the planet itself.

In a previous post, I suggested that the New Year is really just another day.

It seems I was right.

2026 is simply Season Two of 2025.

Fogy, in tears.
