10. Well, since YOU brought it up...

...so to speak...


I promise to touch myself MORE there than I did this year...


Oh, and also to engage in more wild, heathen liberal dancing:

I might just do some dancing as well, assuming I have more time on my hands like I'm thinking I'm going to.

46. Hey there!
I think he is only dancing (he's called a "dancing bunny" by the site I got him at). But you are right--when he puts his paws down it does look a little like self-love. :rofl:

12. You probably didn't intend to be serious
But I need to immortalize this someplace:

1.) Take better care of my body (better diet, less food, right amount of sleep, more physical activity)
2.) Spend more time with my wife and son
3.) Be assertive in visiting my friends and family more.

23. If I say it,
it'll never happen.

So my resolution is to sit on my ass all year eating a steady diet of potato chips, oreos, and lard, let the house go to hell, watch my kid become a li'l juvy, drink too much as often as possible, and hang out in WalMart for kicks.

26. To help get bush impeached is my primary resolution.
To help get the rest of his administration removed from their jobs is my secondary resolution.

Let's make "ACCOUNTABILITY" the buzzword for '06! :patriot:

31. Aw, man. That resolution is SWEET.
It is my opinion that while retaking the House is essential, ONLY an Impeachment can save this nation. So, that's a GREAT resolution to have made.

27. to keep to myself,
not get involved with married men. (including my own) oh, hell, never keep them, never make them. one year runs into the next. it's all the same bullshit. with little sparks of smiles here and there. i guess i'll just try to better prepare myself for when the smiles fade.

37. Mine is a TOTAL cliche, but thoroughly realistic.
I resolve to lose 10% of my body weight at least twice this year. i.e., if I weighed 200 stone -- oops, I mean pounds! :P -- first i'd lose 20 lbs. Once that was lost and i was down to 180, i'd lose 18 lbs.

Completely realistic.

Best luck to everyone who does resolutions. This is my first in many, many years.

I've kept it for 16 years.
