#1 I resolve to down one bottle of nice white wine everytime Bush vetos major leftist legislation. That along should keep me relatively sober the whole next year.

I will resolve next year to convince everyone in the world that the statue at the Lincoln Memorial of Lincoln did a break dance to Snoop Dogg if the new democratic congress cuts domestic spending increases military spending with promises of winning the war on terrorism.

I resolve to learn ballet dancing if the leftist congress cuts NPR funding.

Hey, this is fun. I got a million of 'em!

#7 i only hope the comment "Grab other conservative pundits for a weekend of headline-grabbing partying in the manner of Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, and Paris Hilton." was a snark. a panty-less Rush Limbaugh or Bill R. is really more than i want to even contemplate. please pass the steel wool.

#11 I resolve,

1) To lose at least 20 lbs
2) To spend more time exploring the great outdoors
3) To quit Skoal
4) To finish the rewrite on my 1st novel and complete my 2nd novel
5) To write more, more often, and to do so consistently
6) To fight back against creeping liberalism and multiculturalism in America
7) To defend my country and conservative values with gusto when challenged by some idiot dhimmi
8) To win the lottery
9) To become independently wealthy
10) To celebrate uproariously when Saddam hangs, when OBL is bagged and tagged, when Sadr meets Allah, when the Hildebeast drops out of the Presidential racer, and when the US finally tells the UN to STFU and get the hell out.

I have a dream!

#14 I made a New Year's Resolution about 20 years ago that I've easily kept ever since.
The Resolution?
To NEVER AGAIN make a New Year's Resolution.

#19 I've kept my resolutions for the last two yeats. Now comes the hardest one:

I resolve to get more exercise, including running, which helps me get lean and fit (even though I have to hold up the rack while doing it, otherwise, ouch!)

Keeping resolutions short, sweet and ATTAINABLE...that's what works for me.

#21 I resolve to survive two trailing daughters behind the wheel. I don't think I can handle much more this year -- td #1 got her licence today, td#2 will get her learner's permit by the end of the summer. And I'll mail off my pittance to Fred when the year rolls over ('cause I'm an end user and I don't do paypal, that's why).

Of course I'll keep reading Rantburg and trying to learn whatever y'all are willing to teach. But that's an easy one. :-) And throw celebratory tea parties for the certified deaths of certain overachievers in the wrong direction... with the hard stuff on the sideboard for those who don't like tea, of course.

#23 I resolve to start smoking. I resolve to choke slam a liberal war protestor. I resolve to kick my brothers ass when he gets back from Bagdad. I resolve to keep enjoying dating the "wrong" girls. I resolve to move to a warm climate. I resolve attend a rant-a-palooza.
