Happy New Year from NC
I hope everyone is enjoying the first day of 2009. We are watching the Rose Bowl, rooting for Penn State, and have just finished a yummy New Year dinner cooked by PatriotPartner.
Saxby wanted some of the smoked pork, sauerkraut, black-eyed pea salad and collard greens. He had to settle for a pig’s ear dog treat.
So, what are your New Year’s resolutions?  I have two:  exercise regularly and use the phone vs. text/email.
I’m keeping it simple.
Oh yeah, and MORE podcasts! (And more cowbell, of course)

1. Get my FID (firearms identification card). (I’ve already completed a gun safety course.
2. Get back into my French instruction. (My instructor — Alain — is fantastic.)
3. Drink more. (I really don’t drink that much. I drank enough in the Marines to last a lifetime.)

I usually don’t make resolutions, but I need to get myself into a job paying real money again. I’ve gotten “comfortable” in the crappy union shop I’m in now (but the insurance is free). I’d love a government job of some sort so I can get 12 paid holidays a year and beau coup vacation time.
Maybe I should run for congress so I don’t actually have to do anything. I could be a liberal and my only job obligation would be to give the American people the finger on a routine basis. I couldn’t pull it off though because I care too much about people.

We’re a day late, but my Charlie and Gracie want to say Happy New Year to Saxby. He’s as cute as they are.
One of my resolutions is, like you, to exercise a lot more. And I have a good reason — my 50th high school reunion is in September or October and I’d like to get rid of some of my gut.
Another resolution is to renew a long-running crusade — to date not a success — to get restaurants to change their onions policy. Instead of having to ask for a burger or salad, etc., without onions, the practice ought to be that people who like raw onions have to ask for them.

My news years resolution is to eradicate sauerkraut (and all remnants of its recipe) from the planet Earth. In this endeavor I will fail, but it will be a noble cause. LOL
Coleslaw over sauerkraut. Every. Day. Of. The. Week.

That is some funny **** – that your new years resolution is to drink more. LOL

Hubby and I are resolving to get back in the gym after a 6-month hiatus due to my messed-up pelvic disc and his lethargy.
Also resolving to be more organized.
(And J the J – love your resolution!)

I could start the new year by reading Liberal Fascism. Oh wait…..

2: charming. I love how you’re in a job that is supposedly against your ethics, but you stay in it because you get a free ride (thanks to the crappy union).

#8 – Kevin, at least he has a job. Whereas I suspect you still live in your mother’s basement.

#8 – And speaking of which, to paraphrase your response:
I love how gays like you are affiliated with a political party that is supposedly approving of your ethics, but never gives you anything in return. Instead, you stay in it because you THINK you get a free ride (thanks to their incorrect talking points which claim that the other party is less tolerant).
Back at you. Bask in the ambience. (H/T – “White Chicks”)
