Happy New Year 2012 !
Picture Credit to Joshua…
Well it was a great year. Thank you all so very much for dropping in and participating in this blog.
I think it has grown up a bit. Some things worked and some things didn’t.
A valuable lesson learned is to leave politics out of perfusion. I want to thank the leadership at AMSECT, Craig Volcelka, and Bill Riley for helping smooth some things out, and for being willling to give this a chance.
To the readership at AMSECT- thank you for tolerating my many posts, and there shall be no further posts heading in that general direction. Sorry if it was so troublesome.
The upsides are the following:
- 75,000 visits
- 137 Countries
- 350 + Cities
- A few jobs were landed
I am looking forward to the next year and want this site to be a great place to visit, learn more about our profession, and see the human side of the things we do.
Below is a sample of some of the best work that came out of last year…
