Ahh. New Years. What better to follow a three-day Solstice hangover than a night of hard-core partying!I’m not a resolution guy. I think if you have a self-improvement that you need to accomplish, that you should just start right away, without waiting for a special day to kick it off.That said, the end of the year is a good time for self reflection, perhaps to decide on what exactly needs improving. So here are my resolutions, which start today.1) I’m going to spell check these damn posts2) I’m going to read the Book of Thomas3) I’m going to have an active role in the 06 elections 4) More fiber5) More features on this blog!Note number 3 — a more active role in the elections. Can you resolve to do the same? Can you promise 15 hours of volunteer work with your favorite candidate? What do you wish to accomplish this year?

hit enter by accident. anyway i have been toying with a few slogans for a t-shirt:
proud to have evolved
or
product of evolution
or
intelligent product of evolution
may have one made eventually but where to wear it without ending up like poor mr. hooper is another matter.
How about:
“My great^100,000,000,000 grandfather was an amoeba.”
RoostaNH:
It was Lily Tomlin, who did the ‘never mind’ thingamabob (the daffy ‘Phone Operator’ character, I believe it was).
My resolution is to exercise daily, even if I have to do most of it sitting down.
Another is to better organize my time.

LOL… it’s disarming too so it’s doubly good.
flavon and r4d
Thanks for the t-shirt suggestions:
“Hairless Monkey” is another of my favorites
There better not be anyone who would shoot a little baby for wearing the wrong t-shirt!

FYI, sword is in Canada, so unless you are the Master of Canadian politics of the NGB as well, maybe you should do an in depth search, or here’s a novel idea, ask sword what he is talking about!
Once again, a resort to a personal attack, heed your own advice.
mine are easy get out of debt and get back into debt by going back to college

“The last few years has seen one corruption scandal after another and it’s time people got involved and stop voting the same crooks in power time and time again.
It’s posts like this that make me wonder to what depths anyone really searches…
Name one conviction…???
You must have been in diapers from 1992-2000. “
Again the personal attacks?
I’ve stated on numerous occasions that I’m from Canada, and I was refering to the Liberal Party of Canada. No convictions yet, but a lot of key figures were charged and are awaiting trial.
I won’t be waiting for an appology as I’ve yet to see you do so on this blog, but I just wanted to make you look in the mirror when you post something like:
“It’s posts like this that make me wonder to what depths anyone really searches…”
mxracer652, thanks for holding the fort while I was away
hey sword i am looking for a pretty objective web site to monitor your contrys elections any sugestions
and phreedm apoligize he will just say somthing else assine and say you are picking on him maybe go hide for a while or do one of his other little childish things he does and you know he only wears the diapers at night
Udonman, although the Quebec independance issue makes it hard for any newspaper to remain impartial, this website I think is:
http://www.cbc.ca/canadavotes/
As for phreedm, to quote an arab poet: “May the fleas of a thousand camels infest his crotch, and may his arms become to short to scratch.”
How’s THAT for piking on him?
he he he
thanks sword i will be checking in on that site pretty often and thats good i like that one have you checked out my post on the tread about the guy who killed the atheist i think i figured out phreedms main problem
and shouldnt that be eh eh eh
just kidding
one more thing do you fence or kendo
I fenced with bamboo swords back when I was taking jeet-kune do classes a few years back (before I got married), but only for fun. JKD uses a stance similar to fencers so it comes naturally.
You are right, it should be eh eh eh. The “h” before the “e” is the french version.
cool i fence so thought id ask any way we should wrap this up so the thread can get going again se yah later from the great corn state of IA
No problem sword, phred has done nothing but turn into a troll for the past few weeks, and is again re-earning his RA appointed Phallacymaster title. I just call bullshit where I see it. Now everyone get back on topic!
Ok, back on topic!
My resolution: TRY to stay away from chocolate. I have a few pounds to shed, but I swear the stuff is addictive!
Taking the stairs instead of the elevator and eating healthy foods I started a few months ago, no sense in waiting for new years.
But dark chocolate is always there, tempting me. Mocking me. Seducing…
Gahh!
I resolve to shove a stick up the distal-GI tract of every reasonable politician. I resolve to ask at every political rally:
Are you better off today than you were 8 years ago?
Are you safer today than you were before 9/11?
Do you really believe that the Government is a bad concept?
Do you really believe that we can act without taxes to pay for our nation’s infrastructure?
phreedom,
keep hoping

That is too funny! I am going to use it next time some fundie tries to debate me and wont let me talk. lol
Darrow, well said. Well said.
sntc, feel free to use it!
I’m pretty sure it’s a real arab saying, but I can’t remember where I heard it.
Hi Everyone!
Just trying to catch up after being out of town and busy.
My resolutions are:
1. Stay on my budget – DH and I went over the finances and YIKES!! Are we ever spending a lot! The up-side of that is that I should be able to spend more time on this blog – I won’t be able to afford any other entertainment!
2. Paint my house.
3. Keep losing weight – I’ve lost about 1/3 of what I want to loose.
4. Get my act together politically and figure out what I want to do, as far as party affiliation, etc.
5. Be Happy!
SNTC, swordstrike:
Hey, I got’s an idear!
When phreddy returns, let’s all swear at him in Arabic.
He’ll probably think the jihadists have taken over (heheheheHEHE!)
I got a few irish curses, laid up against a rainy day….
RobW, your college has an Atheists Club? I’m insanely jealous
My resolution is simple: to finish up at tech school, graduate, and finally leave my sucky job for a much better one.
I often wear my “Atheists are beyond belief!” shirt. My favorite place to wear it is in Wal-Mart, on Sunday, at about 12:30 or 1:00, right after church lets out
Actually, even a few Christians haven’t been able to resist a chuckle at the pun, and have admitted they find the play on words funny. I even met another Atheist as a result of wearing it. The worst negative reaction so far has been merely a very shocked expression. If you have an Atheism shirt, wear it.
I thought the original phrase was German, and was “May the fleas of a thousand reindeer nest in your groin.”?
I can teach you a few German phrases if you wish.
