Alacrity

Starting points for your resolutions (can you tell I'm "relaxing into the new year" by staying very cozy in my apartment??)

- Want to get into better financial shape? Try the Basics Page from SmartMoney.com.

- Want to get rid of the clutter? Try About.com's advice on organizing or the more philosophical advice from Discardia.

- What to be funnier? You can start with some anecdotes from Reader's Digest.

- Want to be smarter? or at least sound smarter... There are lots of word-of-the-day lists like those at Dictionary.com or at Merriam-Webster.

- If you're like 3XK, maybe you should look into being more liberal. I prescribe 30 days of reading Alternet.org.
