This New Year’s Eve, put safety first behind the wheel
As 2010 draws to a close, Americans across the country are planning their New Year’s celebrations. But during this exciting time of parties and resolutions, it’s important to keep safety in mind.
The fact is, New Year’s Eve can be one of the most dangerous nights of the year on our nation’s roadways because of drunk and impaired driving. And I can’t overemphasize how serious this problem is: in 2009 alone, 10,839 people were killed in drunk driving crashes, representing 32 percent of all traffic fatalities for the year.

Red Shirts, Red Ribbons… Empty Actions
Lately, I have received several versions of an email. The email tells of a soldier that has fallen, and being brought back home. After an emotional story, the writer then asks you to show your support by wearing a red T-shirt this Friday. If you like poorly written prose, the latest email I received, is at the bottom of the article.
I truly do not wish to offend anyone that has sent me the emails. But I find these emails offensive. On some level, the emails represent people’s need to feel like they are doing something. But is it appropriate to show your support for fallen troops via the equivalent of ‘Hawaiian shirt fridays’ at work?
Instead of reading the email, forwarding it to dozen people, and then forgetting to wear red on Friday (its unlikely anyone would even know why I was wearing red)… I thought I would do something productive… put pen to paper. «Read the rest of this article»
