I know resolutions are the thing to do so I sat down and really gave it some thought. Then, the voice of my mother rang through my head saying, "If it's not broke, don't fix it." Plus, "Leave well enough alone." And that classic, "Don't mess with perfection."
What's a girl to do? I did the only thing I could do under those circumstances. I accepted the fact that I was not going to make any resolutions for myself this year.
Then I made some for other people. I'm just giving like that. It's a wonder to me I don't always win those altruism awards.
Without further ado, I present my resolutions for everyone else for 2010.
Susan Boyle is resolving to learn another song. Yes, we were all blown away the first 30 times we heard her belt that bad boy out. But even Milli Vanilli knew two or three songs
Kanye West is resolving to pick on someone his own age and size. However, other stars are quite disappointed in this resolution. Coincidence or not, one can't help noticing that after he acted like a spoiled preschooler and grabbed that award out of Taylor's hand, she hasn't lost.
These next two are just resolving to go away.
And hopefully to remember that there were eight other people in that family. Just a trivial fact they seem to have forgotten long ago.Speaking of families, this next resolution is being made by the bulk of a family. Michael Jackson's family is finally going to let the man be put to rest. Yes, that means even the brothers who forgot to develop careers or talents of their own.
Keith Urban resolves to choose only one of the following: shag, mullet, high-contrast highlights, or extreme straightening. Oh, and to get a razor.
These people have already had to resolve through the court system not to profit from their admitted balloon hoax for five years. In 2010, they are going to do the right thing and resolve to never profit from that. And to take some parenting classes.
Adrien Brody resolves to give his mom back her cardigan and feather scarf, get a professional to do his hair, and give those shorts back to the retiree he stole them from on a Florida golf course.
And this gentleman resolves to give a large chunk of his fortune to his wife as well as become very well-acquainted with the return address of the local STD testing clinic.
Whew, I'm exhausted. It is terribly hard work helping other people live better lives. Maybe I should have just stuck to myself after all.But what fun is that?

Thank God Jon & Kate resolved to go away! I can't take them anymore;)
Those are all great resolutions! Loved it!
Excellent resolutions!
I'm thinking of making a list of demands of the universe. For the universe? Toward the universe? You get what I mean. *moan* I've got a high temperature and don't know what I'm saying.
All I can say is :D :D :D !! (My that looks awfully funny....but it's 3 smiley faces lol)
No way - your resolutions for these celebrities (or wannabes in some cases) were so amusing to read! I hope you make this a tradition and do it more often! So funny Debbie!
I love it. What a good idea. And Jon & Kate totally have forgotten about the kids. How sad to say. I used to watch them. Too bad they'll be gone. Serves them right. LOL
xoxo

It is way more fun to make resolutions for other people.
Since I also don't do too well at making my own I'm going to give a big second to yours.
Great list. I like the idea of making resolutions for others. I hope Keith Urban reads your blog - he's in dire need of a makeover.
This is hilarious! All so true. I wonder what people could resolve about me? I better not ask my husband!
I am so glad for Jon and Kate, if only they would go away!
LOL!!! Oh my goodness, you are a riot!! This is the way to go - make resolutions for others! :)
Thanks for visiting my blog the other day! Hope you have a great New Year's!
I have to say I agree with all the resolutions. Some more than others. J&K, Tiger, and even Susan Boyle. To her I say....Please get another song. I know they are out there. There has to be more.
I have a feeling that Jon did not make that resolution.
And what happened to Adrien Brody?!?! He used to be so cute!
Wow, you made the resolutions for other people that I would have made too! Thanks for a good laugh.
Love it!
I love this idea! I am going to make some resolutions for my dog. And my husband. And even my kids!
Great idea!
I love it. great list!
Nicely done Debbie! Happy 2010 to you and your family. I know your future posts will be all about "helping" people and i can't wait to read them. :-)
HA! That was a great start to my day. It makes my resolution to stick to our family budget sound measly in comparison :)
This is just an amazing post. What great writing skills you have.
Way to Go Woman! This was absolutely hilarious and right on target for all these people!
Sure brought a smile to my face today.Thank you.
Now if only they would all stick to these resolutions you made for them.
Can you do one for Billy Ray Cyrus? That guys drives me nuts.
I hope Father Jackson doesn't try to dig Michael up for a remake of "Thriller"
Wait.... Milli Vanilli had more than one song?
Well, I personally appreciate the fact that you made those resolutions for them - because those are probably NOT the resolutions they would've made on their own!
Keith Urban DOES seem so confused on what to do with his hair...PICK A STYLE!! GEEZ!!! Good thing he has you and I to tell him what to do. :) Happy New Year!!!
Also, can Keith get rid of the earings?
LOL! That was great! Happy New Year.
Hilarious! What a clever idea, making resolutions for others. Now, if some of those people would just read this list...
I have a feeling Tiger's might come true. . .at least the giving away portion.
Such great resolutions! I think you should do mine!
Debbie, I have a request, since you're continuing your perfection streak with this resolution for other people stuff. Could you please add Brangelina and their tabloid shenanigans with Jennifer Aniston? Let them resolve to never be mentioned together on the cover of any magazine anywhere anytime for any reason.
Whew, thanks. I feel good about this. Don't you?
After having a truly horrific morning, I gotta say, I so needed this post! LMAO! Great resolutions for all! Cheers to 2010!
Heh heh.
You were my much needed chuckle this morning.
Thank you
I am laughing out loud! You nailed every one of the resolutions!
Wishing you a wonderful 2010!
xo
Along with everyone else, I thoroughly enjoyed this post Debbie. What a great idea to make resolutions for other people.... much more fun than doing them for ourselves and we get to skip the guilt feelings at our abysmal failure to keep them! Yes, I like it. :D
hee hee hee hee.
hee. hee.
rofl...
This is awesome. You really could go on for pages and pages. thanks for visiting my blog.
I love these and only hope they all follow through!
Great advice... oh Jon & Kate.... and then Tiger. Looking forward to a better 2010.
You do know that Jon was recently in the new again...right? *puts gun to head*
Good suggestions there!!
I'm going to have to check into the cookbook giveaway.
You really DO deserve an award. Maybe Jon and Kate could spare some of their extra dollars just for you... Since they've forgotten they have children.
It is very hard trying to help everyone else...it is tiring being such a good person ;)
~WM
Very well said. If Jon and Kate go away, I will be happy.
Lol!
Lovely to hear from you and read about new years resolutions.
So pleased Susan is so well loved. I am glad she as become a star!
Talking of stars!
Hoping your new year will shine and be a brilliant star for you!
Hugz!
Julie
Ha! right on.
I resolve not to make any resolutions.
LOL...you make a great life coach!
Great resolutions!!! but I love Keith!!
Cookbook giveaway?! Man, I've been gone a LOOOOOONG time. LOL
What...no resolutions for us, your readers?! LOL
I like the Tiger Woods one the best.
The White House resolves to check their guest list more carefully.
American Idol resolves to make this their last season (I wish!)
This is a riot! Not sure which bit is the funniest...they all made me smile.
Thanks for the laugh!!
Loved this, Deb!
You're "good to go" for the New Year!
ROFLOL...You just crack me up, I think you should really do stand up... you are a natural!
I love the resolution for Tiger...:)
Happy New Year.. and stay perfect!
Now this is the way to do a nEw Year post :)! Happy New Year!
hahahaa! perfect!! seriously you couldn't have picked better resolutions for them! thanks to you 2010 will be a better year for everyone! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Oh, would that you could make it all come true! Excellent resolutions!
You have done a wonderful job in making resolutions for others. Bravo!!! To add to Susan Boyle...that she get her eyebrows done in 2010...I am just sayin'!
Happy New Year!
Hugs
SueAnn
The Keith Urban comment was priceless! Thanks for making me laugh this past year.
Oh my goodness I agree 1000% with each one of those resolutions. Excellent!
hey Debbie,
here I am. I was only awy, because of my new job.
they don´t like that I have a blog.
And so I wait a bit. do you have any idea how I can change my name, and keep all my comments in the blog????
because i love my blog.
Happy 2010
keep in touch, and hope you could help me in this case
Nic
This was a fantastic post. I hope each of these people stick to these resolutions you have so thoughtfully assigned to them!
That was very funny ---you did a great job of setting New Years resolutions for those bozo's.
could you do some for me.
I NEVER make resolutions, that way if I do something amazing --or not--I am just surprised. (not disappointed)
Those are funny, but I don't think any of those people are doing those resolutions. Like the Jackson's - they are going to have a new reality show on some channel. And I wish Jon & Kate would go away, but that doesn't seem to be happening either.
Hopefully they'll all read this and make these resolutions - lol.
Hope you have a Happy New Year! ♥
Funny stuff! I can't go down that road... I mean, where would I stop? And then the tables would be turned and I would be like "dang.. you noticed that?"
Happy New Year!
Sadly, I'm sure this year will be full of celebrity disappointments as well. Regular people should be famous, then we won't expect so much! :o)
My best, Lynn
*swing on by my place, I am hosting a mega giveaway extravaganza this week!
Ohhh Debbie, you make me giggle. I think you've done a great job with your resolutions :)
You said it all in such a kind way. I'm very hopeful that you will work on my resolutions, too!
Have a great New Year!!!!
Hahaha... I love your list of resolutions. It is simply superb! Now if they'd just work on them. Happy 2010 to you!
Hilarious! And it's much more fun to make resolutions for others...
Too funny! And true!
Hie hie! Loved it! Thanks for visiting my blog!
LOL, this was the best resolutions post I have read today. Nicely done!
What great resolutions! I hope they listen to you.
Thanks for the GREAT laugh! I needed it this morning!
LOVE that post soo funny!!!
You gave me a GREAT laugh this morning. Thank you, and I agree with every single one!!
I did a post with my resolutions, too: http://wmljshewbridge.blogspot.com/2009/12/2010-resolutions-this-time-i-really.html
Happy New Year!
Great list:-)
I think you've done mankind a service by helping these people in their journeys. Thank you!
Happy New Year!!
LOL. I'm so glad you stopped at Tiger. I was worried I'd be next on the list! :0)
Happy New Year!
Wishing you the happiest of years my fellow SITSta!
Your so right! Why mess with perfection.
Happy New Year.
HA! Well thought out. Very cute. I'm pretty good at coming up with ideas on how OTHER people can change. :) I just joined SITS and look forward to all the neat blogs I never knew about.
And that was the best new year laugh I have had. I hope that they all live up to those resolutions, especially the "reality" TV (and wanna-be) parents!
Happy New Year!
Amusing!
LOL
Parenting hmm should be on a few peoples list there huh?
Really makes me think ok my craziness isn't that bad.
Now for them to stick to them. I say 20% chance?
I couldn't agree with more with every single one of those resolutions!! I can't stand what the Jackson family is doing now, trying to make money off of their dead brother just to make their careers more successful.
Happy New Year!
I came by to say Happy New Year! You are very funny.
Ha hee! Oh are you a clever and naughty girl. :)
Happy New Year! Happy New Decade!
What a great post! You know it must have been good since I read it aloud to my hubby!
Great sense of humor!
This is a wonderful, indeed revolutionary idea. We all know that making our own resolutions is never successful, so why not let you undertake this task for others, as an act of noble charity.
In particular I hope the Jackson family was listening.
Perhaps next year, if you could spare the time, I would appreciate your also making one for Dr. Phil
Thanks for getting the New Year off to such a great start!
Brody's wardrobe issues do raise eyebrows. Can't this guy afford a stylist?
Such a fun twist on the resolution post. Happy New Year Debbie!
I love coming by to visit you :)
I hope they all listen to your resolutions for them! Will make everyone happier!
LOL!!!
Happy New Year!
Very nice! Ya know I like Keith Urban's tunes but I got to thinking recently about the fact that he fakes a country accent when he sings. It just isn't right.
Happy New Year!
love it!
Oh Debbie...you are just too funny & witty!!
I resolve to come by for wisdom more often this year. :o)
Lisa (Mother Mayhem)
You do good work!
Those are all great resolutions!
How to make a website
My life was quite devastated when Michael Jackson died. I mean, what is life going to be like without the King of Pop!? At least now his brothers and sisters can do something on their own without being in his shadow...
Thanks for coming by my blog!
:)
Love them all! Happy New Year to you!
Heh, heh. Making resolutions for other people is MUCH more fun than making them for yourself.
You? Crack me the heck up!
what happened to Adrien Brody? YIKES.
Holy Guacamole, Batman! I know I'd be PLENTY worried if I were one of the one thousand and sixty-four gals Tiger has slept with...talk about STD Central!
Oh. my. gosh. Loved this list!!!! :) Can Brad Pitt resolve to leave Angelina for me? ;)
PS. I'll be sure to let you know what I find out about couponing. :)
I am praying and wishing that many of your resolutions for those folks happen - especially Jon & Kate!
Happy New Year to you!!
Wasn't that nice of you to make a list for them? I'm sure they all couldn't be more thankful.
ZOMG, Adrian Brody. He is the true definition of "hot mess"!
Debbie~Happy New Year and Hooray to "No resolutions!" Well...for you and me anyway. Girl, I've been there, done it, one hundred times to many and I still don't weigh 103 pounds like I did at 21!! Even after eating...many farms worth of veggies!!
Sweet wishes,
Sara
WAHAHAHAHA!!!
You're a giver, you are!
I, too, resolved to not make any personal resolutions - but I never considered making them for others. I think you're on to something...
I am letting you know I will be right over to help you clean.. Have a great Sunday..
That's a great idea! Make resolutions for others! I love it!
I featured you on the Sunday Funnies: http://tinyurl.com/yekgl4e
And I resolved to faithfully keep reading your blog during 2010. :D
LOL! I've done about 2-3 posts about these topics myself. Putting them under my "Media Chatter" tab as I type. Feel free to take a look at 'em.
Thanks for stopping by!

You are such a perfect poster. You never cease to make me laugh and laugh. And laugh some more. I am resolving to gain 20 more pounds... Hopefully I will fail : )
I wish Jon and Kate would go away. But I keep hearing about them on the E! channel. Apparently Kate might be starting a new show? Ugh.
Great resolutions!
I'm big on resolutions, but I have to say, those you so generously made for others are AWESOME. Love them, love them, love them!
You are doing a great service to humanity by helping these folks with their resolutions.
I've decided not to make any myself either - I hate having to hold myself accountable for anything...
Thanks for the laugh this morning!
Ha ha --fantastic!! Loved this post!
Oh, my it has been awhile since I came to check you out...Ooooo. Been off of blogger for a few months and "resolve" to get back to journaling and reading my favorite bloggers! Had me a gigglin today..THank you.
BTW another resolution for Tiger..actually tigers do get to "mate" around..fitting I must say! Keep the cheating under 13 (that we know of) please..sicko;)
Is it sad to say during the winter my legs can become quite hairy..not like Keiths face mind you but very shadowy non the less..tehehehe
These were fabulous! Rolling throughout - ugh... the return address for the STD clinic. Ha-ha!
Love these!! Especially Susan Boyle!!
So funny. Now I'm inspired to check up on my celeb gossip. Ta-ta!
Wonderful resolutions! Hope you have a happy new year.
LOL! Great post!
You have no need to make resolutions for yourself. These are the good ones!
Now THAT was funny!
So much simpler to make resolutions for other, isn't it? Hopefully everyone you've mentioned will actually do the ones you've set for them. :-)
LOVE it!!! How funny!!! Much more fun making resolutions for others, lol! Love your blog!!
Thanks for Stopping over :)
