Hey there guys and girls any new year resolutions for 2009
Like giving up smoking or drinking or to drink more or starting up a health kick or trying to stay away from IIS for at least 2 days or to post 1000 more posts
And second question do u ever keep the ones you have made before

I make the same resolution every year - to be more tolerant of my fellow man ( or woman)
Do I keep it?
Well, I have to make the same resolution every year!
In a similar vein but on another note (if you get my drift) - I carry a card permanently in my wallet which reads -
"The reward for patience is more patience"
It's the most "viewed" card in my wallet!

I resolve to give that short a**e Jen more stick on this forum. Especially after she pointed out how young she was when I was already attending astrocamps. I'm going to say rude things about her telescope: "rude things about her telescope". See I told you I would!!!

She can't find my home address can she Mr Moderator?

Nah Jen, it's all OK. Luckily, I never keep my resolutions.

Mine is to get a life...
So I will make a resolution to take up surfing and under water photography...I have given this a lot of thought priced stuff.

Keep away from ladies who confuse me...
AND
Stop mooding over past failures of relationships and keep motivated with various interests that have slipped over the last couple of years.

I haven't thought of any yet Jen but I've still got a few days to go.

One might be to to more imaging but that is more cloud dependent than resolution dependent.

Cheers

Stop being depressed about things I cannot change. Think less - live more.
Give my RBI (repetitive bum injury) a rest and get back to work.
Do a starter course in astronomy

Yup....my record on these resolutions is not good...but that means it can only get better right?

According to the IIS info we are 707km apart. So you just have to travel 707km in the correct direction, but which direction? I suggest you walk in a circle centred on your place with a radius of 707km. That way your bound to bump into me sooner or later.

New Years Resolutions
1. Again I'm going to try to give up the dreaded ciggies.
2. I was nice this year, and it didn't get me very far. So next year I'm going to be naughty.
