OK be honest, are you making any new years resolutions?
I am never one to make a new years resolution, never thought it necessary. However since new years is only a few days away, what is yours?

I'm afraid to make one.
Last year, I resolved to hire someone good to help me get the boss's beachhouse looking great. I hired the manager of the Garden Department at Home Depot and she works a couple days a week. We got the place looking really good. Then we got swatted by 4 hurricanes and it's a wasteland. |

1)Start keeping a "to-do" list ... I did this in college and was much more organized ... I'm not an organized person, but simply writing down a list of things I need to do and a "deadline" for each really helps.
2)Learn more about cars, investing, and the sports I cover (odd trinity, I know) 3)Gain a few pounds (obviously remaining svelt enough to be an efficient distance runner) 4)Stop worrying about everything so much. OK, maybe that I won't even try #4.

My new year's resolution is to keep as detailed records as a can for my new '84. My '85 came with wonderful records and they were very handy. I've already got a spreadsheet started with the few things I've done thus far and I'm going to do my best to keep it accurate.

On second thought, I think I'll resolve to upgrade my safety devices.
This $655 South African device seems like a good investment. Sometimes people might approach you with a seemingly innocent question, when they've actually got something criminal in mind. "Hey Buddy, got a light?" more details |

It's an easy resolution to keep
I'm going to cut down on my smoking this year.
After January 1st I will only smoke if I am by myself. Or with someone. |

I guess I could make some resolutions:
To get my SD's body damage on the rear right door and fender from 2 years ago (hit and run by a drunkard) taken care of. Then it can look nice and awesome and have no more rust. My other one could be to not be online on the forum at 3:07am

My goal is that before school starts back up again (the 9th of Jan.) I want my 300SD to have its water/air intercooler installed.
Went and got the aluminium today. If the rain lets off I am going to test fit and start tigging!! I already did a couple of the things I have been wanting to do...I tore down my turbo injection pump (spare one) to learn how it works and modifiy it accordingly. I'm just havin a good ole time |
