Subject: [ranchos] New Year's
Resolution
I thought this was hilarious. Just wanted to
share!
1. No man is truly well-educated unless he learns to
spell his name
at least three different ways within the same document. I
resolve to
give the appearance of being extremely well-educated in the
coming
year.
2. I resolve to see to it that all of my children will
have the same
names that my ancestors have used for six generations in a
row.
3. My age is no one's business but my own. I hereby resolve to
never
list the same age or birth year twice on any document.
4. I
resolve to have each of my children baptized in a different
church --
either in a different faith or in a different parish.
Every third child
will not be baptized at all or will be baptized by
an itinerant minister
who keeps no records.
5. I resolve to move to a new town, new county,
or new state at
least once every 10 years -- just before those pesky
enumerators
come around asking silly questions.
6. I will make
every attempt to reside in counties and towns where
no vital records are
maintained or where the courthouse burns down
every few years.
7. I
resolve to join an obscure religious cult that does not believe
in record
keeping or in participating in military service.
8. When the tax
collector comes to my door, I'll loan him my pen,
which has been dipped in
rapidly fading blue ink.
9. I resolve that if my beloved wife Mary
should die, I will marry
another Mary.
10. I resolve not to make a
will. Who needs to spend money on a
lawyer?
