blackjohn Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 OK I'm tired of working just for room and board... I don't want lots of money... but I wanta fair share of what I make/produce........I want to be paid for my labor..... I am tired of being Poor.................SO my NewYears resolution.... To take charge of my own life... to stop being used, and get paid a fair wage for what I do...... As Yule Brennor said in the "ten conmandments"... quote.... "So let it be written.. so let it be done..." Rock on man! There's no one stopping you but you! And now, I'm going to quote someone in a film: You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the fortune you seek. But first -- first you must travel, a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril. Mm-hmm. You shall see thangs... wonderful to tell. You shall see a... a cow... on the roof of a cottonhouse. Ha. And oh so many startlements. I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the obstacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow them, even unto your salvation. As for me? Every year I make a resolution to do something for a year. This year was no alcohol. The year before was no Starbucks... no donuts... and so on. I'm having a hard time coming up with something for 2006. I've actually given thought to no re-enacting. However, like William, I think what I'd really like to do is get something published in 2006. Even if it is something small, like a magazine article. I'll have one figured out in a couple of days... My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Caraccioli Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 That was the first time I had ever heard the word "startlement" used in a sentence. The Coens have an interesting ear for dialogue (not to mention an interesting eye for characters). I second blackjohn! Do what must be done, Patrick! You're really the only one who will do it for you. For myself, I'm re-starting the writing of my success newsletter every month next year. (That will surprise the folks on my email list...) I decided to stop writing it last year and I wish I hadn't. I'm also studying one topic a month to supplement my training information. And several other things. (Hint: Write your goals out longhand. You're much more likely to achieve something you've written - not typed - written.) "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?"
Barbados Sam Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Aye, the march of the Resolutionists. My goals are to continue my ongoing battle to lose weight, get in better shape, and hike to the summit of Mt. Whitney. I also resolve to finally get my patio project completed. I also plan to build up my tolerance to alcohol. I noticed that most alcoholics are rather thin people. I may have discovered a doable diet plan "There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them. We frittered them away on drink and food and pleasurable company. The more we gave them away, the more we came to realize... the drink would not satisfy, food turned to ash in our mouths, and all the pleasurable company in the world could not slake our lust. We are cursed men....Compelled by greed we were, and now we are consumed by it."
Rumba Rue Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 I don't make any resolutions. Cuz if I did, I'd have to kill you.
Gigi Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Mine pretty much echoes Sam's....except I want to cut back on my booze habit.
Dorian Lasseter Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 I resolve ta get back ta doin' all th' stuff I did afore me auto accident... Damn Bus... me poor truck.... Me poor back! I'm at 95% from when it happened back in May of '04... Truly, D. Lasseter Captain, The Lucy Propria Virtute Audax --- In Hoc Signo Vinces Ni Feidir An Dubh A Chur Ina Bhan Air "If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me."

Caraccioli Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 Or was that 18 year Scotch on a ice bucket splashed with bottled water???? Just so long as you don't put the ice or water in the good 18-year old scotch...that's high treason. "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?"

Red-Handed Jill Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Not so much a New Year's resolution, but it's been almost two years since I've given myself a real challenge. The last one was mental, so this one should be physical.
The Doctor Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 Laugh more Love freely Live each day like it's my last Rediscover music Resist the urge to fart in crowded elevators OK, the last one was just for fun. The more, the merrier, says I!! Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

Yeah. Me too. Althought I have some 15 year old Aberlour I'll be nursing at the NYE soiree I plan to duck out of after an hour or two of conviviality. "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?"
Dread Mach Brannigan Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 I resolved years ago to never make resolutions anymore because I never see them through after about the first 2 weeks.
