Thread: Bucket Lists

Anyone got anything want to do before they kick off? I was thinking about this today for some reason or another. Mine is simple enough, just takes some green (doesn't it always?). This is mostly stuff that I hope I do sooner rather than later of course.

*Go to Rally Car school and race at an amateur level
*Get my pilot license
*Jump out of a perfectly good plane, aka skydive
*See the world with SWMBO
*Get a few custom razors
*Not have to worry about money

The list grows n' such, but that's a basic run down.

Mine changes a lot... but skydiving is one that's always on.

So thats what a bucket list is.

Skydiving is on my list, and it's a win, win. See if your parachute don't open, you die, after you sky dive, therefore, you still did it before dying.

Can't get any better than that.

That's a good list.

Here's mine...

* Drive a Lotus Elise, Exige or Esprit
* Actually finish writing a book
* Yell obscenities at Doc and Woody (two FM radio hosts for the local classic rock radio station. They're on for hours, talk more than they play music, make really unfunny jokes, have annoying fake laughs and play very nearly nothing but AC/DC and Pink Floyd, and only the really famous, popular songs by them....)
* Write an up to date history of all my razors (I'm going to leave them to anyone I know who straight shaves, or if I don't know anyone in person who straight shaves at the time, I'll ask the girlfriend (she'll be wife by then) to put them up for the cost of shipping here on SRP.) That has the benefit of both the new and subsequent owners of the razor will have just a little more history on the razor than I myself started with, but also a little bit of me will live on in that history. Besides, I can't stand the idea of them being left in a drawer to rust.

A pretty simple list, I suppose... But hell, that just makes it easier to achieve, right? :P

Sky diving was on my list, I've done it, and it was absolutely awesome.

I want to shave with a blade that I made myself.

travel to at least 3 continents.

and become fluent in a foreign language (at least 1)

You know that Elise can be had for $47,000, right? These days that's a steal! I hear ya on finishing a book. I'd love to do that, I just don't know how good it would be. John Grisham I ain't

Mike, I'm right there with you on the language. That's always been a goal of mine for sure!

One more razor,preferably made by myself, hopefully usable.

Travel to Japan
travel to Africa
travel to Russia
travel to Brazil
travel to Scotland
Travel to Israel
See my grandkids (possibly great grandkids)
Win the powerball (but this is optional)

Hi Cobo, I'm Jordan. Nice to meet you. I shave with a straight.
