This thread may have happened before. If so, mea culpa! If not, let's go!

Years ago, I made a list of 10 things I want to do before I meet my timely or untimely demise. One was to run a marathon, and after 14 I think it's time to take it off the list. Another is to publish a book, and I am trying! Another is to teach a semester of college. And so it goes ...

What's on your list? I'd love to hear about it, from pole dancing to politics. Let's let it fly!

When you figure it out, will you let me know?
I haven't revised my list lately, and some of the items have changed but I would still like to jump out of a plane before I die, preferably not on the day I die though.

Getting published is up there, but saying that on this particular forum is kind of extraneous. I want to travel to England and to Alaska. I want to see my boys be happy with their lives. I want to buy my (as-yet-nonexistent) grandbabies their own ponies. I want to touch an elephant. I want to tell my boss to shove his price changes up his fat...well, maybe I won't do that one.

I will complete a play this year! I will!
I got seven.

1. Write a great play and have it performed in a theatre with a paying audience.

2. Study history.

3. Climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

4. Learn to eat with chopsticks.

5. Get a tattoo.

6. Do a transatlantic crossing from Southampton to New York (just like the Titanic - well, hopefully not just like the Titanic.)

7. Write some poetry and show it to someone.
