Strive for excellence, not perfection.
Plant a tree on your birthday.

Look people in the eye.
Be the first to say "Hello".
Return all things you borrow.
Make new friends but cherish the old ones.
Keep secrets - Don't gossip.
Sing in the choir.
Plant flowers every spring.
Always accept an outstretched hand.
Stop blaming others.
Take responsibility for every area of your life.
Wave at kids on school buses.
Be there when people need you.
Don't expect life to be fair.

I'll have to do extra credit work too. Not even excessive amounts of Tequila make me think I can sing. Though sometimes it makes me think I can dance.

A very nice list Bumper! I printed it and will put it on the fridge. BTW, I owe you an apology...I didn't PM you about Hard Rock pins before going to NY last month and I still have to PM you about Peep Fest prizes. Will get right on that this week I promise.

Made it through the first (I sing and hum all the time... it's a sickness really) and will probably stumble numerous times on the second. But that one is definitely one of my 2006 goals. Hopefully the people I meet will have the same goal!!
