    Earlier this week we passed along some advice from a personal trainer, via CNN, on New Year’s resolutions. Click here: The Secret To Keeping Resolutions? Accountability.

    In a response, Dr. John Thompson, a teacher from Centennial High School in Oklahoma City, offered his advice. We’re passing it along:

    =============================================

    Join us in opposing NCLB type accountability, and we’ll help you repudiate your New Years Resolutions in a guilt-free way.


    Repeat after me, “Chocolate.”


    Think Homer Simpson and say, “beer.”


    See its not too hard.


    And if you can’t follow this process and enjoy a kinder and gentler new educational program, and need a little aversion therapy, then repeat after me, “Margaret Spellings.”

    Keep pluggin, John. We hear Oprah is looking for the next Dr. Phil.
