What I Did for Love

By Glenn McDonald

Setting our gaze levelly on the year to come, we make solemn resolutions that we have every intention of keeping, despite having batted exactly .000 over the last several decades. Such is the resiliency of the human spirit.

But we also tend to look back at this time of the season, reflecting calmly on the year that was. Assessing our achievements, counting our blessings. And wondering – for the thousandth time – just how the #&@*!# the Boston Red Sox could blow a nine-game lead in three weeks.

This year we decided that perhaps we should take another approach to The Year in Review. Considering U.S. economic woes, and seemingly endless bad news each week from around the globe, it’s good for the heart to occasionally look on the bright side.

To wit: All the terrible things that didn’t happen in 2011.

So we took a look at some 2011 predictions from this time last year (and, for the heck of it, some much older predictions, as well).
The conclusion? We should give thanks, as the year 2011 certainly wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
