It's always been fun making NYR's (not New York Rangers BTW), thinking and believing that somehow you will change a habit or become a better person by practicing mind control. The problem is New Year's resolutions are intended to last forever, when you commit yourself to making them. There's a lot of pressure when you commit to a promise that is supposed to last forever. Just look at the last time you got married. Scary huh?
Maybe we should only make New Year's resolutions for the first month of the new year, or maybe the first week, or even for one day. That way if you can keep your promise for a whole day, then you can build self esteem and possibly go for two days, or three, and maybe even a week before reverting back to your old ways.
What ever your 2010 resolutions are, I wish you good luck in keeping them. And if for some reason you aren't successful, don't worry, you only have to wait until next year to try again.

Happy Two Thousand Ten or Tripple T or even better "T3"
Welcome to the future. We have arrived in a new year and decade. Have you thought whether the next ten years can be worse than the last ten? It's probably likely considering the poor state of the economy, and the negative ectoplasm that has existed ever since 2001. Maybe another Ghostbusters movie might bring us out of the doldrums and help turn things around.
I sure hope we can get rid of all the political ill will that exists, but somehow I also know that's impossible. Maybe someday people will wake up and realize that government can't solve social issues. They can make rules and pass laws and spend our money, and give us something to argue and complain about, but they can't really make life better for the average person. I suppose I wouldn't be saying that, if I had a good paying, cushy government job, would I? Probably not. But since I don't, I'm going to stick to my original comment that the government is full of mostly inept bumbling boobs. I said mostly bumbling boobs, as the law of averages states that there must be at least one intelligent being who knows how to run a country. However, I can't afford to chance making a wager on it.
