its a continual ''work in progress''....
This is a on topic funny story.
On the 30th a local morning News / Entertainment show called Good Day Sacramento asked this question. Just before the anchor asked this they had one of the studio audience members(a blond gymnast) do some moves so I sent in an email saying "My resolution is to marry that blond gymnast". Just after I sent that in they asked on TV for me to send in a picture, to carry on with the creepy stalker theme I sent in a picture I call my "Creepy Picture". Once they put it on TV the Anchor said "Bill, that's a bit creepy". True Story.

I have made three New Year's resolutions: First, I promised to my wife to cut my working week down to under 50 hours. Related to this, I'm going to try to delegate more and travel less; my new car, bought after this accident only 5 months ago, has got 40000 km (about 25000 miles) already.

Last but not least, I am going to quit smoking. Tomorrow. Or maybe next week...

My New Years Resolution is to finish 2010 without a Major Health Issue! This getting OLD stuff sucks but it sure beats the alternative.
