I know that New Year's Eve is still a little bit away, but considering that I'll be working, I figured that I'd post this now.
My New Year's Resolutions, in no particular order:
- Actually post at least once a
monthweek at the site. I know that all of you with only believe this one once you see it. These past few have been a bit hectic. Getting used to the new home schedule (Denita and I only have every other Saturday off together now). Also, the absolutely crappy dial up service out here was putting a crimp on even checking the weather forecast. But life is starting to settle down into an almost manageable routine for me and Denita's family got sick of the busy signals while we were online, and hooked us up with a broadband connection... so I should be able to post more frequently. - Get a headset with mic for the computer to take advantage of insanely cheap VoIP calls (seeing that everyone we know is long distance). For those who know my Real Life™ name, you can find me at first name.last name on Skype.
- Post more humorous contributions to life from Zane... pictures, videos and stories.
- Come up with a damn moniker for the new town we live in... This has actually been a very tough one for us. TinyVille just popped to mind for the town we used to live in, but we just haven't been able to come up with a fitting one for where we are now.
- Plug more cool shit I find online... such as Pandora.
- Perform only one wipe-and-reinstall on the computer. Honestly, this one is in Bill Gates' court.
- Keep in better contact with my relatives. I've never been very good at keeping in touch with anyone outside of those I see on a regular basis, and I need to get off my lazy butt and remedy this. My family deserves MUCH better.
- Get back into occasionally writing letters and sending them to people, instead of typing out a sterile e-mail. There is something more satisfying (in my opinion), in getting an old-fashioned, written letter in the mail.
- Finally, get a slide rule, and learn how to use it... just for shits and grins.

Look for a Kueffel & Esser "Log-Log Deci-Trig" model, which was the standard student-engineer's slide rule back in my college days.
A circular slide rule can be worked with one hand though, and those are still sold new.
