Ain't Wasting Time No More
The Allman Brother's Band: Ain't Wasting Time No More. Is there any better way to kick-off a new year? The first morning of 2013 started with that song and a swim in Barton Springs. Happy New Year!

It wasn't that bad really. At least not in Brooklyn. Cesar and I were supposed to go to the Jets game. Given the dire predictions and closed subways, we decided to watch the game at Plan B. It was supposed to rain all afternoon, but didn't. After the Jets had lost and the Cowboys had won, I walked home without an umbrella.
Video for Those Stuck at Home During the Hurricane
It's the moon landing. Spliced together are video, audio, texts, the lunar module pitch angle, and most incredibly, a monitor of Neil Armstrong's heart rate. 150 beats per minute!!!
