Here's a topic to talk about our goals for 2009. Whatever you strive to achieve/shed/stop/start/obtain/divest in the new year, let's see it Smile

1) Lose this gut I have developed from poor diet and massive quanities of beer consumption.

2) To finish the BMX restoration I started.

3) To move back to Astoria Queens, NYC.

4) Get the tape deck fixed on my Sanyo M-X820K and sell it via ebay. (Or if an ofer I cant refuse comes through here.)

5) Use said money to get parts for the BMX restoration, and fix up my other radios.

6) Continue my blog. (Basiclly a random online journal so people can see the insanity that occurs in my head) Blog

I need to sort some things with my flat -- new furnitures and a complete overhaul to make it even more attractive Big Grin

and , like vladi, i need to stop dating around and find one girl that "just fits" me Smile

I plan to lose a few pounds (the Slimfast & Nachos diet ain't working). Either add on 2-3 bedrooms to my home or buy a bigger one. Buy that 500hp crate engine for "LUCY" and aquire a few more boxes. And most importantly, become a better husband and parent.

Why lie and promise to do a damn thing in the first place? I don't believe in making promises that require outside help to complete. Laugh Out Loud

My ghettoblaster resolutions for 2009 are:

1: Have enough cash to score Petey Awol's Sanyo M-X820K
2: Get a Toshiba RT-S93
3: Get all my current partly working radios 100% working, one way or another.



Rock On.

jcyellocar - 2008-12-31 14:35

- get more exercise
- drink less coffee
- buy more boxes and walkmans
- get another digital camera

driptip - 2008-12-31 17:55

mine is simple .....buy more boomboxes.

2steppa - 2008-12-31 18:05

Stop allowing people to be my priority whilst allowing myself to be their option.

Get a second job or a better main job.

Lose even more weight.

Build a new FM stereo PLL transmitter. (The VFO one just doesn't cut it).

Acquire a Sharp 777 and/or Rising 20/20

Find me a new better half.

masterblaster84 - 2009-01-05 07:59

I could probably come up with hundreds of resolutions that I can't or won't keep so here's a few I will make an honest effort to keep.

1) Thin out my boombox collection. So far I've shed nearly 20 of my boomboxes in the last 30 days and that's without throwing any away.
2) Fix the boomboxes I have that aren't fully functional. In reality that's probably not going to happen since I would have to fix about 1 every 2 weeks during 2009.
3) Lose about 20 pounds of fat.
4) Date a decent woman, Do they exist? I haven't dated a decent woman in at least 5 years, crap!!!!!! They've all been shallow, self centered, looney, mean, wrapped up to tightly in religion and or 300+ pounds.

fuzzyduck - 2009-01-06 11:36

jovie - 2009-01-07 20:31

ghettoboom777 - 2009-01-12 22:04

Hi-Mine are:

To last but not last find a girlfriend-companionship is important for happiness.
Good-post-have a great year-Ghettoboom777. Smile Nod Yes
