Top Eleven: Things I Blogged About In 2014

Another year of writing, complaining, and commending down, hopefully many more to go.

Each year I've done this blog (read: last year) I've done a year end "wrap-up" where I scour through my archives and attempt to locate the eleven articles that mean the most to me.  Maybe they're connected to an important memory, maybe they were extremely emotional to write, or maybe I just had fun writing them.

And yes, there will also be a "bottom eleven" coming as well.

But for now, let's look back at the articles I'm the most proud of from the past year.

Cosmos - A Spacetime Odyssey

Confession time:  I'm a huge science nerd, but I've never seen a full episode of the original Cosmos starring Carl Sagan.  I've seen snippets here and there, but I don't think I ever managed to watch it on television.  Everything I've seen was online.

Yes, I'm aware this is blasphemy.  No, I don't care.

I also didn't like Goonies, so stick that in your nerd pipe.

Where was I?

Oh, right.  On Sunday FOX (and its affiliate stations) aired the first episode of the new series of Cosmos, starring Neil Degrasse Tyson, who I've already discussed before and still feel he should be the host of a smooth jazz radio station that adults get twitchy about their kids listening to.

So, what did I think?
