Personally, I never make New Year Resolutions. Why make
promises you know you're not going to keep? Besides, if one
wants to start something good, one doesn't need a spring
board like the New Year's Day. Today is soon enough.
However, it's fun to make fun of the resolutions... :)

"New Year's Resolutions for Internet Junkies"

1. I will try to figure out why I *really* need 9 e-mail addresses.

2. I will stop sending e-mail to my wife(husband).

3. I resolve to work with neglected children -- my own.

4. I will answer my snail mail with the same enthusiasm with
which I answer my e-mail.

5. I will stop sending e-mail, ICQ, Instant Messages and be
on the phone at the same time with the same person.

6. I resolve to back up my 12GB hard drive daily...well, once
a week...okay, monthly then...or maybe...

7. I will spend less than one hour a day on the Internet. This,
of course, will be hard to estimate since I'm not a clock watcher.

8. When I hear "Where do you want to go today?" I will not reply
"MS Tech Support."

9. When I hear a funny joke I will not reply, "LOL... LOL!"

10. I will read the manual... just as soon as I can find it.

11. I will think of a password other than "password."

12. I will stop checking my e-mail at 3:00 in the morning... 4:30
is much more practical.

13. I resolve... I resolve to... I resolve to, uh... I resolve to, uh,
get my, er... I resolve to, uh, get my, er, off-line work done, too!
