wrap-up of year

As 2007 draws to a close I'd like to take a few column inches to reflect on a some of the past year's events, challenges, high and low lights. Looking back at the year is a tradition for me. Maybe it's my inner poet who likes to reflect on the past. Maybe it's an easy way to get a last KT out of the dying ends of the year before my early morning deadline crashes against my eggnog-addled brain.
