So long farewell, auf weidersehen good-bye 2010. I can't say that I will miss you.
In the meantime, let's hope 2011 isn't the year that all of the chickens come home to roost.
Because no matter how many times you try to slap a happy face on it, the economy and the markets are as tenuous as ever.
Even still, as crazy as 2010 turned out to be, the year did give us plenty to write about here at The Daily Ration. Go figure.
That being said, here are my top 25 blog posts of the year.
In no particular order these are the stories that for some reason--in my opinion at least— say the most about who we are and where we are headed.

Two hundred blog posts later that is all there is for the year—unless,of course, something really wacky happens.
In the meantime, have a wonderful holiday season and a very Merry Christmas!
See you in 2011.....
