There is no 'trying', either do or don't. Good luck. :)

I have decided to give up having expectations of others. How's that for deep?

That is something I never thought of or even contemplated.

I agree Jack, but I have been down this path before with very limited success. This time I am serious.

Now on a completely different matter, just read this story on the Beeb about Malaysian women getting caned for having extra marital sex which I guess is a bit harsh but something that at least can be argued about.

Apparently there is another one in jail awaiting caning for drinking...beer...Now there is where I think it becomes quite a tad too much

All I can say is I am glad I am not a women living in Malaysia. Wow! Talk about harsh.

I am giving up caning Malaysian women who have had a bit on the side.

I may ask for the three strikes limit to see me through.

I gave up giving up for Lent.

Went out to a concert last night got drunk, ended up smoking and then had a kebab on the way home.

My wife it seems has given up sex.
