I just had an awesome 3 days in Ocean City MD. I got an off road permit for my Jeep Liberty and spent some time driving down the beach on Assateague Island. It was great. For NY resolutions: 1. Take better care of myself. Hy health is not as good as it used to be. 2. Take more time off to enjoy off roading, sailing a boat, riding a bike, ect. 3. Spend more time with the family. 4. Keep making people happy by playing music. Happy New Year to everyone here, Joe ------------------ Songman55 Joe Ayala

I'm putting the next to the last nail in the "Dave & Donna" coffin. (saving the very last one till she's at the altar, or in a box) We were on again - off a again, for the last 2 years, and now, since the summer ... she's (gulp) in "like" with another guy. Looks like I lost her ... again. So, no more tears ... no more false hope ... Only good thoughts for her and the "luckiest guy in the world" Now, we ALL know what really happens to NYE resolutions, don't we? I'll "try" to keep this resolution, and wish her well, but I miss her so much, and feel so stupid for ever letting her slip away from me. (twice) Sigh ... It's Charlie Brown and the little red haired girl all over again. Happy New Year, folks. [This message has been edited by Uncle Dave (edited 01-01-2009).]

* Stop playing on Sundays and Mondays.
* Limit live playing to 2 gigs during the week and 2 each Friday and Saturday, or 300 per year. Work more with my "family" trio.
* Finish a textbook I'm contracted to do.
* Actually spend some time learning more about some of the equipment I got in 2008 (GW-7, SH-201, SD-5, Nords, Hammond system, etc.).
* Visit several Synthzone members (Tony, Chas, Stephen, UD and others).
* Get rid of lots of stuff I don't need.
* Get more involved in a local music education program I started last year.
* Teach a communications techniques course both semesters.
* Read a lot more than I have been lately.
* Get ready to transition ownership/management of my company to my son in a year or so.
* Build a Berrian dune buggy.
* Build a "monster" kit motorcycle.
* Accept a director post with a local charity.
*Continue to be primary caregiver for Dr. Gragg, my dear father-in-law, and help Janice Gentry, wife of my musical friend who died last year with her home repairs, taxes, etc.
* Spend much more quality time with friends and family.

Help Captain Russ keep the above resolution. All kidding put aside Russ, it would be great having you stop by Rhody for a visit. BTW,if you've ever seen the Showtime series "Brotherhood" there are some real great shots of Rhode Island in the series. Of course Tony and I are nothing like the characters in the series. Continue what I started this past September, i.e. getting back to a regular exercise program and keeping the off the 40 pounds I shed before the holidays. And of course continuing to work at the keyboard and get more disciplined getting out those promotional packages.
