The DJ Aro Remix for 2006

One of the best things about the dawning of a new year is coming up with suitable rhyming slogans to go with it. For example, I graduated from high school in 2001. My class motto ended up being "Success and Fun in 2001!" which is totally lame, but it rhymes, right? My cousin's school came up with their graduation slogan when all the kids were freshmen and still fourteen and fifteen, so theirs was "We Can't Drive in 2005." I'm not sure if they changed it or not when 2005 actually rolled around. I hope that they didn't.
Anyway, I spent the first few minutes of the this New Year coming up with phrases which will hopefully sum up 2006. Here are some of them:

-Kick some hicks in 2006! (dedicated to my hometown of Dallas, Oregon)
-Swim in creeks in 2006! (where "creeks" is pronounced "cricks" -- once again dedicated to the old hometown)
-The Rabbit gets Trix in 2006! (many companies could stand to benefit from having products that rhyme with the current year -- "order Netflix in 2006", "Milk and Kix in 2006!", etc, etc.)
-Make Rocky VI in 2006! (apparently this is really happening!)
-Win the Grand Prix in 2006! (I know, I know . . . )
-"Tyrannosaurus Rix" in 2006! (for a dinosaur wanting a name change)
-"How many licks in 2006?" (for The Tootsie Pop Owl)

Oh man, I totally had a lot more of these, but I'm too tired tonight to remember them all or come up with more clever ones. Any one else want to pick up the slack?
