Today: State of the Union.
My fellow Americans (and other people too, obvi), I missed President Obama’s final State of the Union last night. I was wide awake, and just feet from the television, but was preoccupied by one event (that sounds nicer than crisis) after the next, most of…

Today: Goodbye, 2015. Hello, 2016.
On one hand, I try not to buy into the New Year’s hype too much. The “new year, new you” stuff sort of gets under my skin. But on the other hand, I love a fresh start. A clean slate. A chance to set new…
