Bucket List

Anyone ever see the movie Bucket List?  I never did, but I heard it was a riot.  However, since I was told about it, and informed as to what was a Bucket List, I have developed my own.  Some of them are to conquer a fear, others seem fun, some I have always wanted to do, and others are out of mere curiosity.   I laugh at myself when I read it...because I know that some are unrealistic...but hey, its my Bucket List, right?  I'll share...
