What is New Years without some resolutions? But self-improvement resolutions are a sham, as most people break their resolutions due to a lack of will-power. I know this self-effacing feeling all too well, so this year I will be making resolutions I can keep. Here are the ones I am mulling over before the holiday deadline:
- Drink more beer - All too often I fall-in to calls for Jager shots / bombs and mixed drinks. While I'll continue to drink these concoctions, beer will be my first choice at all times, which brings me two number two...
- Drink better beer - I've already begun this one, but I still order too many low brow beers than is necessary at bars, Adolphus or better, except no substitutes. If someone orders me a lesser beer I will promptly hand it off to the next sap sitting next to me.
- Eat more flapjacks - This goes without saying, every member should consume at least a short stack a week.
- Make my own flapjacks - This will save me money on #3, and make me a shoe-in for 1st place in the "Annual I.F.S. Flapjack Cook-Off", watch out Rabbi, Panamanian crepes don't count.
- Spend more time at my local IHOP - Nothing shows greater character than knowing the help at your local eateries, well there are probably other things, but I want to know the local San Clemente IHOP staff on a first name basis. This is going to take some work. Maybe just hang out on a Saturday, and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner there. Tip well.




great flipping of flapjack graphic!
