Tom Cruze's Nine New Year's Resolutions

How Not to Be so Serious

Nora Nick
Beginning on January 1, 2009, Tom has vowed to keep his pants on when making guitar commercials, no matter how lucrative the pay.
He has called in his decorator and ordered new couches that would permit such fabulous personalities to interview him without looking as if they are ready to make out. For example, he was trully embarrassed that Oprah Winfrey was reclining on his couch with feet coquettishly tucked.
Tom has begun to accept that his little boy features will never get him a role as Patton. Therefore, he has vowed to grow a beard and appear Amish.
On the lighter side, Tom has decided to explore his funny bone and try for a role as Harpo.
His personal life being as uncommitted as it is, he has vowed to begin to look at his marital partner as a fellow human being in life's journey and not just a necessary male accessory.
New Year's resolutions being what they are, promises to oneself and therefore accountable to know one, Tom has promised to accept himself as worthy of keeping promises to himself as much as he tries to keep promises to others.
Tom will never neglect himself and he has vowed to never neglect another human being for which he has responsibility over even if it compromises his career.
Tom has decided to learn to crochet and to make himself an afghan using four different colored yarns. He will then donate his afgan to a worthy charity and impress himself at the worth of a task done by his own hands.
And, being politcally correct, Tom has decided to look into politics and take a risk at influencing the legal system.

Happy New Year Tom!
