Column: Net zero 2050? That’s nothing – hold my beer

Serious goal-setting seems like a very good way to torment oneself, creating a new reason out of thin air. My New Year’s resolution is to avoid setting goals. Type A is not my type.
But maybe it’s time to turn over a new leaf. I’ve decided I don’t want to be a bedridden old coot. So it’s showtime.
By the year 2050, I’m going to be the first 80-something to run a sub-four-minute mile. I’m going to bench press 1,200 pounds and win the Tour de France five times in a row, all as an octogenarian.
Aw come on. You’re laughing at me. Why do you have to be like that?
I’m not crazy, I’m just trying to get with the times. Aspiration is everything, reality is nothing.
