New Years Resolution - Get fit

This year, as I'm sure many millions of people did, I decided that the new year would be a good time to get myself fit. With that in mind, I think taking up a sport would be a really good idea. I wasn't sure what, but then inspiration came to me.

LETS PLAY DARTS!

I was watching the BDO World Darts championship from the Lakeside and it occurred to me that darts would be the perfect sport to take up. We're having a pretty wet and miserable winter (unusual for the UK) and with Darts you don't need to leave the house, it's cheap and sociable, you don't get tired or sore, and you can get drunk whilst you're playing. The only thing better would be if you could get a pool table in the house. And whilst I did find some that stack vertically, they are a bit pricy.

So, whilst we're in the shop getting the Sky+ remote I talked about yesterday, we're going to pick up a dart board. I'll be fit in no time.

I will have to do a small amount of drilling in the basement to put the board up, but I think it's a small price to pay. My girlfriend also said that if we got a dart board then her mother came to visit she'd spend all her time in the basement playing darts whenever she came to visit. I just want to go on the record and say that didn't contribute to my keenness to get a board, not in the slightest.

Brilliant Idea

I'm an idea man. I like to think up stuff. Partly because thinking of stuff is easier, and lazier, than actually doing stuff but mostly because I'm really not good at doing anything. Those who can't do, teach. And those who hate people can't teach so they get drunk and think shit up.

I also like bizarrely awesome animals with strange powers, huge teeth, odd looks, and/or a penchant for human flesh.

I have combined these two "likes" of mine into another brillant idea. Potentially the greatest cartoon in the history of mankind and potentially martian kind. I wish to combine a Honey Badger and a Pistol Shrimp into the greatest superhero duo of all time. I haven't really worked out all the details like names, designs, or powers and abilities but I'm sure it can't fail. I'm fairly certain the Pistol Shrimp will ride the Badger into battle and dismount with some Matrix-like manouver blasting away enemies with his Powerful Pistol of Pistoliness.

However, as I said, I'm really useless at actually doing anything, so if anyone out there is not lazy and wants to draw, or contribute ideas, to this world changing idea go ahead and leave a comment. If you do not want to do so, you can ride off straight to hell in this fine little handbasket I've put together for you.
