Me too!
Just with some amendments. After all this is the 21st century.

Sentient beings are numberless, I will be nice to as many as I can, except the ones which I encourage my cat to chase and eat, and the ones I want to eat myself.
Desires are inexhaustible, I will exhaust myself trying to attain them until I am too exhausted for desire and then look back on it all with a smile when I am a dry old stick
The Dharmas are boundless, so I'll probably read the new Stephen King instead
The Buddha way is unattainable, so I'll just talk about karma when I really mean I want nice things to happen to me and nasty things to happen to people I don't like

(for as long as it takes)
