Some New Year's Humor

Here is some miscellaneous humor to help bring in the New Year:

Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average… which means, you have met your New Year's resolution. – Jay Leno

An optimist stays up until midnight to see the New Year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves. – Bill Vaughn

New Year's Day… now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual. – Mark Twain

Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits. – Unknown

May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions! – Joey Adams

Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account. – Oscar Wilde

A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one Year and out the other. – Unknown

I have no trouble keeping resolutions. Well, at least the one about recycling my resolutions. I've successfully reused the same list since 1998. Maybe this year, I'll finally be able to accomplish the others as well. – Mike Durrett

I resolve to assume full responsibility for my actions, except the ones that are someone else's fault. – Unknown

Before I criticize a man, I walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot. – Unknown

We’ll end with a New Year’s poem – Author Unknown:

Twas the month after Christmas, and all through the house,
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.

The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste,
At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.

When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).

I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared,
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared.

The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese,
And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."

As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt,
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt.

I said to myself, as I only can,
"You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!"

So--away with the last of the sour cream dip,
Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip.

Every last bit of food that I like must be banished,
'Till all the additional ounces have vanished.

I won't have a cookie--not even a lick,
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.

I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie,
I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.

I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore,
But isn't that what January is for?

Unable to giggle, no longer a riot,
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!
