The new year. New plans. New resolutions to slowly break apart. Before that all kicks in, it’s always interesting see what’s bringing people to the web site. Here’s a quick look at which news posts, podcast interviews, and rescue dogs (natch) drew the most attention to my humble little corner of the interwebs in 2013:
