Greetings, Readers

At the end of 2011, Joseph Kockelmans decided to start a blog. Over the next year, he wrote on many subjects, some serious (the Air Florida Flight 90 airline crash in the early 80s, the scandal at Pennsylvania State University and the Louis Freeh report), some personal (a touching tribute to his father Professor Joseph John Kockelmans, news about his cat Keekee, a RIP to Dick Clark), some professional (news about his writing projects, updates on the books he published through CreateSpace.com), some fun (top ten lists, playing bingo), and some from his writing assistant Rebecca Taylor (about blogs, about her favorite films). This book contains the best and most popular blog posts in his first year of blogging.
