Happy February (this year is already sailing by at a terribly clip).

Mari and I have now had two consecutive nights of uninterrupted sleep. For the first time since May or June, by my reckoning.

May the new streak last!

rand()m quote

Selfish leaders increase risk by placing themselves first. It's a fundamental mistake to assume that what is good for us personally is mutually exclusive to what is good for everyone. That kind of zero-sum game is for cowards, and in the end, we all pay the price for this type of latent, toxic leadership.

—Col. Eric G. Kail
