In the tradition of Doable New Year's Resolutions for 2006 and Doable New Year's Resolutions for 2005, I present:

DOABLE NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS FOR 2007

1. I will not drill all the way through the Earth's crust.
2. I will not attempt to get any heavenly bodies named either 'Mondas' or 'Yuggoth'.
3. I will not bite any radioactive spiders.
4. I will not open a hog farm.
5. I will not name any computer hardware after John Galt.
6. I will turn quite a lot of oxygen into carbon dioxide.
7. I will not contract any haemorrhagic fevers.
8. I will not violate any no-fly zones.
9. I will not crush any of my neighbours, see them driven before me, or hear the lamentations of their women, unless their women are lamenting at least as loud as their stereo system.
10. I will drink tea.

MODERATELY DOABLE (AT BEST) RESOLUTION:

1. I will not sell out the planet to the Daleks.

I must say that I am worried about why the Dalek resolution is only "moderately" doable...

Because wow do the people of New York get on my nerve sometimes.

And the Daleks do have such a convincing manner.

Dalek Sek is, indeed, a consummate diplomat.

I figured it only qualified as much as it did because it's not that likely the Daleks would take the time to make an offer.

It's not selling if you don't turn a monetary profit. ;)

I've been chuckling about these all day.

Ahem. I'm aware that this is completely off topic, but...

River... go kill people.

... what?

mselfie's avatar is taken from the film Serenity (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379786/) - it shows up on a television screen within the movie, and, on seeing it, the character River Tam flips out and lays waste to a crowded bar before being knocked out by a series of hypnotically implanted code words.

Or something like that.

I really liked the movie, though it makes more sense if you're already a Firefly fan.

Ja, -n

-- Oh. *facepalm*

No, I'm very familiar with the movie, just -- I'd stopped my browser before it loaded most of the icons. Including that last one. So I didn't realize what you were responding to.

[genarti]

...I think I love you.
