This year, after some medical setbacks, I'm more dedicated than ever to back up what I believe.

It's easy to just ignore the issue. It's lots harder, but way more effective in the long run to back-up what you believe.

That's what a democracy is all about.

I may not agree with much my friend Gary Diamond has to say about global warming, politics....whatever.

But, I wholeheartedly support his right to believe what he does and back it up with support for those causes.

We're as different as you can imagine in many ways. But, we are "joined at the hip" when it comes to our friendship and mutual respect.

Gary's DA BOMB!

Best wishes to ALL this coming year!
