I resolved not to make New Year Resolutions.

About the only one I could make is not to fight with Barrie on here....but it would just get broken by about Jan 1 so.............................I won't make any resolutions at all.

Just a couple minor ones for me, drink less beer, drink more red wine instead; and cut down on the swearing.

I will start drinking my stash of "Second wines" from the better Chateaux of Bordeaux and drink less Magnotta.
I will not be rude to any of the misguided forum members who disagree with me.
I will study this: http://www.eviloverlord.com/lists/overlord.html for when I come to power.

I'm hoping that sometime in 2009, my resolution will be 1080p.

-Discover a life outside of work (Will be very difficult for me)
-Travel somewhere, anywhere

That is the best one I've heard so far.

I don't have "New Year" resolutions per say but I try to set new goals each year. On my list so far....

Do my first triathlon even though I don't know how to swim.
Beat my PB for yearly cycling mileage (I was short almost 1000 miles this year

)
Take advanced drivers training (BMW school?)
Stop buying new electronics for at least one year.
Get more than 2 massages during the year.
See my chiropractor more than 4 times this year.
And get my Dad to come down and visit me.

--Smoke as many (or more) cigars than 2008
--Use my crockpot more
--Grow my winter beard until spring
--A tattoo maybe?

Car related:

--Race more, win more
--Explore and install alternate fuel for Supra. Either full E85 or Methanol Injection
--See more members of CTC than last year (I saw 2 last year IIRC..Barrie and Giant Dwarf)
--Strongly consider selling the Supra so I can get my next car

Can you combine the two?

^^^^If I could, I would!!

Made a nice Butternut Squash and Apple soup today in the crockpot.

Will be smoking a beautifully dark and oily CAO MX2 tonight!

Ok, maybe one resolution:

Stop buying made in China Christmas ornaments or screen them better before putting them on the Christmas tree.

Frosty should be carrying his broom stick and not riding it. I think someone in China got their Halloween and Christmas confused.

Happy 2009:

To re-read some of my all-time favourite books.

Currently, I'm re-reading Val McDermid's "The Mermaid Singing."

Read more; kick the smokes (already under way); get back on my running program; learn more about geocaching, and hike at least 100 more kilometres of the Bruce Trail before the year is out.
