Reporter vowed to stop watching news, avoid the dentist and other weird resolutions in 1987

Reporter Wendell Woodbury made some odd promises to himself for the new year.

I wanna learn Italian. I'm gonna go to the library. I'm gonna get the tape. I'm just gonna do it. Uh, mine to stay alive. Well, I'd like to make money, more money. Did you also make *** resolution like those folks? I did. Um, several of them. Let's see. Oh, number one, of course, give up sweets. Yeah, that shouldn't be *** problem. Are folks sticking to those well-intentioned resolutions? I, I have promised to lose some weight. Is it working? No, not yet. Yeah, I really am. You're sticking to it. Yes, yes, I played tennis this morning and I jogged last night. Oh yes, start walking 3, no, 4 miles per day. No problem You know what, I never thought of it. They're only made to be broken anyway, I guess. Never let peanut butter in any form touch my lips again. Stop smoking. Have you done it? Not yet. It's only one day, darling. Mhm. I do *** minimum, minimum of 100 sit-ups every night. Only 1. Keep off all the weight that I lost. And is it working so far? Yes, it is. Yes, give up pig's liver wrapped in warm lettuce. That's gonna be tough, but I've got to do it. Every now and then we get *** little cheated there, but I've been considering all the parties we've gone to so far this year, I've been doing pretty well. And I resolved not to see my dentist this year. Boy, these are tough. Mm, not really, not really. You've broken it already. Yeah, there's just too many things left over from the holidays to eat. The only thing I made was resolution to have *** good year like the one I had last year. So far, is it working? Oh yeah. And finally, give up watching Pee-wee Herman reruns or New Center 8. Gee, I'm gonna miss those news programs. But there are some things you don't give up.
