New Year's Resolutions

In the tradition of our foreparents, it is time to make resolutions that I will break or ignore by the end of the month. So, here are my 2004 resolutions:

  • Try that new South Park Anorexia diet the kids are talking about, and lose about fifty pounds.
  • Conquer France
  • Purchase several handguns, and send lots of pictures of them to Ross.
  • Convince Mrs. Buckethead that we need - solely for Sir John the-in-great-danger-of-falling-behind- his-peers-in-video-game-kickassitude's sake - really, really need to buy a game console.
  • Remember all the embarrassing stories I can so Drew's wedding reception will be extra, extra fun when I give the toast. Problem here, though, is that I was just as drunk as he was, and my memory is a little hazy.
  • Purchase a large, American made SUV. Something like a suburban. Send time-stamped pictures of me filling up the tank several times a day to Ross.
  • Complete, and hopefully publish, a book.
  • Not mess up my son's head too much. Have to save some for his teen years.
  • Build the Me- 262 model that's been sitting on my bookshelf unassembled since 1997. *
  • Produce more offspring.
  • Learn to crochet. Not.
  • Spend at least one more hour this year learning to play the base.

Of all these resolutions, I think I might have a chance with the last one.

Didja ever quit smoking, ya smokestack?

I think you really ought to learn to crochet. Great for reducing stress, or so I hear. Also, you can never have too many afghans, throws, and cozies.

It is your diety-mandated duty to get a game system for young Sir John The Soon To Frag With Aplomb. And for me when I come visit.

If you can't remember any of Drew's embarrassing moments, just be drunk for the speech... all those golden days will come flowing back!

Welcome back, Buckethead! You've been in the wilderness too long.

Haven't.

True, but I still won't learn to do it. That's why I got married.

Send an email to the Mrs. I need all the help I can get on that front.

Drew always said that memory is a state learned condition, so if I return to the state in which the learning occurred, it should all come back to me. Thanks!

Yes, I have.
