Dear Friends,
I'm here in Saigon, working on a top secret assignment--all I can say is it involves leeches, oil rigs, and 14 young men all named Nguyen. Hope you had a safe and happy holiday season. I know what most of you have chosen as a New Year's resolution--to be more like me, Dave. Let me give you a little bit of advice that will help you kick 2007's ass. Here are Dave's maxim's for the ultimate best life you can lead.

Why say "No" when you can say "Yes!"?
Do unto others if they do unto you.
Remember the Alamo (I keep a little photo of Davy Crockett in my wallet).
Treat your feet well, and the rest of your body will follow.
Care enough to send the very best.
Life's too short to drink cheap booze.
Booze is too short--bartender fill 'er to the top!

My resolution? To be a little bit more like myself too!
