Alka Helter Skelter Seltzer 2: Another Perfectly Reasonable Series of New Year’s Resolutions

All the items on my last list of resolutions were dispatched with alacrity. So I thought I’d do it again, serving as an inspiration to the lesser among you in terms of spiritual strength and will power. You’re welcome.

  4. Employ the Power of Mental Thinking
  5. Fluoresce
