New Years Resolutions?

[Rev. Rye]

Here's an idea I've been toying with:

Inspired by this scene from The Aviator: 






I resolve to stop peeing into a toilet, using only mason jars. At year's end, or thereabouts, I will stack all those jars into a giant pyramid. Going by the standard 16-oz mason jars and the fact that the average adult male creates 135 gallons of urine per year, this would mean about 1080 jars, enough for a pyramid of 14 layers, roughly 72.8 inches high and a square 44.8-inch base, and weigh well over half a ton. Thy will be welded together, and the resulting sculpture will be sent to the White House. In addition, I will also start a Kickstarter campaign asking for money to pay the freight for such a monstrosity, the cost of welding the jars together, and, of course, more jars.

In all seriousness (since the plan is really impractical and likely to run into legal problems), I don't really do New Year's Resolutions. The simple fact that most of the time, mentions of New Years Resolutions are usually followed by remarks that nobody actually follows through on them say volumes about how meaningful they actually are.
