Below you will find links to dates when new entries are added. The stories will not necessarily be in chronological
order, but rather as I remember them. I am dating them so that you can skip to new ones you haven't read since the last time you visited,
and so that you are more easily able to find something you found humorous to share with others.

More is Better
Them forst question goes out to primarily women: how many books or magazones do you own about dieting or losing weight? And men: How manu books do you own about hunting or customizing a car? Then the follow up question needs to be: How many of those books are working for ya?
Have you ever noticed that when we find something we want, or want to be, we buy more literature about it, trying to find the magical number of books required to turn you into your dream? Those of you who know me personally, know I am one of the top five. unorganized, "Queen of Packrat" nomonees. As I stood in an office supply store last night, browsing the planners, calendars and organizers, it occured to me that buying another organizer will not make me prganized. wow -EUREKA! It didn't, however, stop me from standing in the aisle drooling for a few minutes anyway.
An aquaintance once replied "buy more power tools" when asked what he'd do with an extra $1000 per month. He followed up by saying, "Of course, I wouldn't know what to do with any of them, but I'd go to the garage and turn them all on in hopes it would make me more 'handy'."
Tell me please, ... did each piece of exercise equipment you bought make you more ambitious to exercise, or make you thinner? How many weight benches or similar pieces of apparatus do you have in your basement or spare room that started oit as good intentions, but now serve soley as a clothing hanger? Ya, but I'd be willing to bet, that if you buy just ONE MORE PIECE, thay will be the piece of exercise "stuff" that makes working out fun and envigorating.
More is better.
So, did buying another diet book make you skinny? Did buying another exercise book make you anxious to "hit the gym"? Did another handbag make you more attractive or more wealthy? Did another set of screwdrivers make you want to hurry and remodel the kitchen, or turn you into "carpenter extrordinaire"?
The moral os this January story is: Make MORE resolutions. The more you make, the better your chances of actually accomplishing one of them. Imagine how smart you'll feel if you get to.cross something off of your "resolutions" list.
MORE IS ALWAYS BETTER.
