It’s December 27th. Let us get this ball rolling. I hope you all had an excellent Christmas with family and friends and good food and drink. On the subject of drink, I had taken a self-imposed sabbatical since the previous Thanksgiving. I planned to go clean until Christmas Eve. That worked, and I could definitely tell the difference. Sleep data showed I had much less interrupted sleep and my heart rate much less during sleep.
We went to our favorite Irish pub last night. I had a couple of drinks as we were out with family. It was a good time, but I kept thinking to myself,”Is this something I need?” We’ll see. I could see another big break again coming. Peter Attia likes to push for people to do 90 days to see the effects it has on the body.

Alan Ritchson. How buff did he get for the Reach role? Just amazing. It’s hard to believe he was the voice of a Ninja Turtle, and now onto this.
One more thing….
The Bulwark put together a video of what all we should expect politically for 2024. A good chance most of it is wrong. But, as many of you probably don’t know, I’m a fan of Tim Miller. Brutally honest guy. He holds people to the fire. I especially admired what he did with Kerri Lake.
So lets brace for 2024 and hope for the best.
