Resolutions

Below is a list of resolutions for the new year penned by Woody Guthrie himself. It makes the rounds online this time of year. I like his list. If I manage to accomplish a handful of these this coming year, it will be a better year. 1, 2, 6, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 32, 33 would all be good. 8 won't happen, and I'm fine with that.
