Sooo....the query today is a simple one: What, if any, New Year's resolutions have you mad, and what are the odds that you'll keep em? I would remind all of you, btw, that my wife and I went for an ENTIRE YEAR (2006) without eating ice cream of any kind, which if you know us you know how difficult that must have been!
So chime in, and good luck!!! 2007 points for the EASY reference...

Tim, thanks for the Private Eyes plug...hmmmm, that sounded a bit dirty...it's a fun show, funny, lots of twists and turns, very creative in the way the story is told...come and see it if you can!
And congrats on getting the program off the ground! Best of luck with the auditions.
No resolutions this year...

Hey Bob,
Call me in my office (or check your eamil and shoot me a reply) when you can. Office number is in the last post.
New Years Day
U2 off of the "War" album
I have made a few resolutions:
TO work out more...I pray to keep this one to keep my butt still looking reasonably like it has for the past few years.
TO keep moving in some sort of forward positive way while living in this shithole of Ft. Myers, FL (oops, the complaint slipped out...I used to be resolved to stop complaining...but it IS a poophole...really...but if you vacation here, it IS lovely)
TO have a baby...(yeah, no luck in the baby making yet..we're still trying) I don't know tho, is that a resolution?
Happy New Year!
My resolution is to stay healthy during this pregnancy. And keep in shape afterwards!
Have a good one!
Hey Laurie,
Erin and I had talked about a baby sometime down the road. Know when it happened? When we picked names. We had a girl's name picked already and we discussed and quickly agreed on a boy's name. Bam! Baby.
There is another version of this legend. Our son Addison was sitting on Santa's lap before Xmas and told him he wanted "Cars... and a sister." Bam! Baby.
Resolutions: Lose weight. Make a million bucks.

Awesome, IMO. AGL is my hero. This step just thrust us forward. Unfortunately, it seems too many want to keep looking behind...I wish people could use their energy to be productive. Anyone ever read Atlas Shrugged? There's a wonderful speech in there that fits the moment.
Tim, congrats on your maiden project at BCTC!

Hiya X: Hope that you and the fam had a great Xmas! We need to chat! Resolutions: To watch my sugar intake, to eat slower, to spend more time with my sister, and to continue growing as an artist and human being. :) Congrats to AGL, and to the Private Eyes cast. Can't wait to see it!
JB, what's the quote?
I think the new venue sounds so wonderful, what a good find...I haven't talked to anyone who is still "looking behind", maybe a little tender-hearted about the "old", which is only to be expected, many people devoted and invested lots of their passion and hard work over the years to the festival but, are completely looking forward and support what is next...I think it may be a good time to embrace this new endeavor and at the same time not compare it to what has been or be critical of what was...just move forward and let everyone come to the table at their own pace...
I am so thrilled AGL has made this new connection and I am sure Equus Run is as well, it will be fun to watch it come together, I certainly know that sensation...
Weird, bro!
Holla at me in an email with the details.

B, it's not a short quote, it's a long speech by Fransisco. Probably shouldn't discuss it so I'll just drop it...
D, congrats on the possibility of the Winthrop job. Good school. The Eagles, right?
JB
Happy New Year to all. I'm still in New Year mode, can't believe Jan. is almost over...but I had 5 days in Hawaii to help pass the time.
Adam, I have Hawaiian cards for you.
My resolution is to be less crabby, smaller & fitter in body, and more generous in spirit.
X, didn't know if you had seen the new UK press release, but given your new position with KCTCS I thought it might this part might interest you:
Details about the new initiatives include:
The Trustees Scholars – an initiative designed to increase the number of students transferring to UK from the state's community and technical colleges. The $1.8 million program will offer students who earn associates degrees and 3.5 GPAs the opportunity to transfer to UK and continue to pay Kentucky Community and Technical College System tuition rates for two years. The goal is to increase the number of transfers with associate degrees from 60 to 100 over the next year. Scholarships also will be offered to a limited number of community college students transferring with at least 48 hours of academic credit and 3.3 GPAs. (A fact sheet outlining all the programs is attached).
