Re: Whats On Your "Bucket List"?

HMMMmmm.. Let's see here.
I've done a lot of things I had not planned on doing, and still don't like planning on doing things I want to... Seems too greedy to think of my wants when the people around me have needs.

I kind of let things happen and if it was a good or educational experience I am grateful I lived through it;) and I am usually willing to share the tale, especially after a few beers:facepalm:. As for the rest of the things I have done, well let's just say if there's no pictures it didn't happen:eek::D

Re: Whats On Your "Bucket List"?

1. Buy something completely manufactured in the U.S.
2. Be governed by an honest politician.
3. Figure out what the impossible dream means.
4. Buy a computer and software that don't ever need upgrades.
5. Figure out why they call a logic based cell phone a smart phone. Being smart would imply the ability to reason.

Those are the fun ones, but in reality.. I'd really like to learn to play the piano well. Chop sticks I can do, Bethoven... in my dreams.

watched "Grinding The Crack" again and its as awe inspiring as the first time I seen it. Yeah, I'd put it on my bucket list, but only as the very last thing given the nature of it.

I read right past that, Swabbie....thx. I feel redeemed now!!

And for those how haven't heard, Jeb Corliss (Grinding the Crack) crashed on his last flight and was severely hurt. I won't post the video link because I don't feel that needs to be shared. For those of you who are into that, it can be easily found. I posted the "Grinding" video earlier and was amazed at how many people would attempt it. I know I sure would....at least the one time....:facepalm:

Re: Whats On Your "Bucket List"?

Have been watching this thread and I have decided that my bucket list is:

1) Make a bucket list.

(Does that mean I am finished?)

HA, that's kinda where I am.

I have always wanted to
1) Take an extended RV tour of the US/Canada up through Alaska. Like a couple of years worth.
2) Spend a couple of years sailing around the Caribbean
3) Tour with Jimmy Buffett
All this and meeting new people and experiencing new things
