Year In Review 2014

New Years Eve is the anniversary of the Deeth Blog, and in a Deeth Blog Tradition I've once again postponed teh roundup of this, the 12th year of the site, until late New Year's Eve. And in another New Year's tradition, as always, my New Year's resolution is to spellcheck before I send.

So this year I'm completely punting and just slapping up selected tweets and retweets to kind of give you the feel of the year.

This post is for the addicts and inside jokers.  If you don't catch every reference, you really had to be there.Step into the Wayback Machine and remember what seemed so important in the moment and marvel at how right or wrong we were...
