Mark Kalar: I desperately need
to improve my punctuality. My lateness has been getting worse
and worse over the years. I show classic denial-type responses
justifying my behavior - I can be late for stuff with my girlfriend,
because she was late that one time. I can be late to band
practice because I set up faster than the other guys. I can
be late to run with my buddies because they're uptight and
need to be taught a lesson... you get the idea. With that
out of the way, I'll be damn near perfect, and all I'll have
to focus on for '07 is trying to stay humble.
Stephen McClurg: Anything I can improve, but especially
improvising on bass and making cocktails.
Keith Pille: Oh, a lot of the usuals... Getting my
exercise mojo back would be a nice start. Maybe taking up
meditation to help maintain my chill. I could use more chill
these days. The sweet-ass model SR-71 that my wife got me
for my birthday will be missing a couple of its decal markings
because I wasn't sufficiently chilled to put them on without
mauling them. And without a reservoir of chill upon which
to draw, it's probably just a matter of time before I murder
the kids who live in the other half of our duplex. Murder
most foul is definitely in my future if I don't get a-meditatin'.
Don Pizarro: I wish to become more proficient in bladed
Southeast Asian weaponry.
Simon Riordan: I would like to officially announce
my campaign to run for the office of February 24th Representative
on the Birthday Party ticket. The Birthday Party Convention
(BPC) will be held February 24th, 2006 in Minneapolis, MN.
If you are unable to attend the Convention, please make
an effort to fill out an absentee ballot for this crucial
election year - these ballots will be made available right
here at American Nerd.
I would like to thank American Nerd for the wonderful venue
for my announcement. The food and drinks are great, Keith,
you've really outdone yourself this time. If you haven't
already, you should try some of Reebie's homemade pie, it's
delicious! I hope I can depend on each and every one
you for your support - thanks again. And may God continue
to bless February 24th!
Jonathan Shipley: Get one of those penis patches.
I hate to admit it, but, dude, I'm shrimpy.
Amethyst Vineyard: I'm seriously considering removing
the broken car and the two broken bikes from the side of my
house. After that, I'll have to rest for at least six months.
Clint Weathers: In 2006 I hope to improve upon my
ability to grow out a totally badass handlebar mustache. I'd
also like to improve my left big toenail that got all f'd
up when I was 16. I definitely want to improve my skills
at making the perfect cup of Darjheeling. I need to
stop subscribing to arts/lit journals because I always get
that
first issue that I just bought at the bookstore. It
probably wouldn't hurt to bring my Rotting Things In Plastic
Containers-to- Edible Things In The Fridge Ratio down some.
And maybe get better at taking photos.
