Since it's New Year's Day, I guess I should make some resolutions.
1. I'm gonna keep posting cute cat pictures for Pumpman.
2. I'm gonna buy a handgun to piss off liberals and so I can buy ammunition next National Ammo Day.
3. I'm gonna be less tolerant of Trolls. I've been entirely too nice lately. That will have to change.
4. I'm gonna continue writing Faxes From Babs. Maybe some day Hawkins might post one of them on his site. Yeah. Like that's gonna happen.
5. I'm gonna continue drinking good wine.
6. I'm gonna drive to Dallas so I can meet Kim and Connie du Toit and Rachel Lucas.
7. I will try to explain to conservative purists why staying home and not voting for Bush is a vote for a Dimocrat. I too am pissed about compassionate conservatism which seems to mean steel tariffs, an abomination of a farm bill, and an unneeded prescription drug program. ( Dammit Dubya! You're a Republican. Start governing like one! Quit spending so much money! Veto a spending bill! ) The important thing to ask yourself is this: Do you want to put the defense of this country in the hands of any of the Dimocrats who are running? The only one I can visualize actually putting the defense of this country paramount is Joe Lieberman, and I'm not sure about him. It looks like Dean will win the nomination. Do you want him as the commander-in-chief? If you do, stay home on election day and punish Dubya just like you did his father.
8. I'm gonna continue making fun of the Dimocrats. They do all the work. I just point it out.
9. I'm gonna continue being mean and nasty to the poor. Most of them are parasites.
10. I'm gonna continue doing the things that have made me rich, thus making me richer. Net worth up 15%. Investment portfolio up 13.5% All I can say is that Joanie in Doonesbury ain't too smart if she lost money in 2003. BTW, these numbers are different from a previous post since that was only through November. These numbers are through December and are still slightly lower since I haven't received end of year dividends and capital gains. The rich get richer because they continue to do the things that make them rich. The poor get poorer because they continue to do the things that make them poor.
11. I'm gonna continue writing about TCIDNN until they catch me and try to make me stop. Then I'll probably retire and see if I can find some contract work.
12. And most of all, I'm gonna continue being a Grouchy Old Cripple!
