Other than "lose weight" what is everybody going to do differently in 2009?
As for myself, finally finish up my PPL and get working on a new degree. I also want to get my IA certificate if I can get the time off to go to the course.

Lose weight is a good one for most of us.

For me, I am also going to work on being more patient , and remembering the words of Jesus in his final hour. "Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do."

For dealing with some of the starboard wingnuts on WIX, I can use the shorter version, "Forgive them Lord, for they know not."

Hmmm.....already lost the weight. So I guess my only resolution will be to get the heck out of So Cal as soon as possible. :lol:

Well, I already got out of my unhappy relationship so that's taken care of. I usually don't do resolutions anyway. I am hoping to lose some of the weight though. I'm hoping my new, happier and more positive environment helps that.

Join my wife in walking the Fox Cities marathon (she did it this summer with a time of 6.5 hours or 15 minutes per mile). Actually build some of my model stash (didn't complete a single kit this year!). Learn archery. Learn how to weld. Attend an air show (Oshkosh doesn't count as it's mandatory). Have a beer with Dan K., Bear, and Mustangdriver and a deviled egg with Bill Greenwood. Oh yeah...lose weight!

Yeah , I had more than one beer handed to me as I walked into the cookout! Ha Ha. I can't wait to do that again. I don't do eggs, I leave them for Bill,but me and Bill did attack the brownies. Not sure on the resolution yet, as I started losing weight already. I can use a happy year instead.
