Take Care Of Yourself And Your Computer in 2006
www.everonit.com
by Doug Ziewacz
Yeh Yeh, I know, join a gym, lose weight, stop smoking, go on a diet, and become a better person. These are noble and good intentions; these naïve and over ambitious goals are, however, in the end, a bunch of lip service for most of us. Rather than attempt to humor yourself with a vain attempt at total transformation for 6 weeks resulting in nothing more than 10 ½ months of credit card charges for an unused gym membership; here’s 11 New Year’s Resolutions that you can actually keep, for yourself and your computer.
