A Geek's New Year Resolutions

Year 2010 is almost done. We welcome 2011 with excitement and happiness. What do you plan to change for the new year? Here is a list from a computer geek. Happy New Year to all!
I resolve... I resolve to... I resolve to, uh... I resolve to, uh, get my, er... I resolve to, uh, get my, er, off-line work done, too!
***
I will stop checking my e-mail at 3:00 in the morning... 4:30 is much more practical.
***
When I hear a funny joke I will not reply, "LOL... LOL!"
***
I will stop sending tweets, Facebook messages, e-mail, ICQ, Instant Messages and be on the phone at the same time with the same person.
***
I will try to figure out why I "really" need 9 e-mail addresses.
***
I will stop sending e-mail to my roommate.
***
I will not buy magazines with AOL disks bound in just to get another 1.44MB disk.
***
I resolve to work with neglected children... my own.
***
I will answer my snail mail with the same enthusiasm I answer e-mail.
***
When I subscribe to a newsgroup or mailing list, I will read all the mail I get from it.
***
I will stop using, "So, what's your URL?" as a pickup line.
***
No more downloads from alt.binaries.
***
I resolve to back up my new 400 GB hard drive daily... well, once a week... monthly, perhaps...
***
I will spend less than five hour a day on the Internet.
***
I will limit my top ten lists to ten items.
***
I will read the manual... just as soon as I can find it.
