Live a little longer.

**Tsen** · 03-30-2006 03:54 AM

-Skydive
-Hangglide
-Kayak at least four major rivers
-Bike across the US
-Grow a friggin' awesome two-foot long (or more) white beard
-Go to Macchu Pichu (I've always loved looking at the pictures of that place)
-Raise/Corrupt a child
-Finish the Myst series (ACK! Almost finished with two...)
-Raise my song library to at least 20,000 GOOD songs. Currently over 4,000 but I haven't checked lately...
-Fly a VW Beetle over the Grand Canyon. (Been plannin' this one for a while)
-Plan my funeral. Must include: Live entertainment, 21 guitar salute, free drinks and catered food.

I like the idea of riding across the U.S... My dad did that about about 20 years ago, and I might do it with him some time.

Things I'd like to do:
-Find true love
-Become a skilled drawer/painter
-Learn to play the guitar well
-Learn to fight, and learn parkour
-Jump out of a plane (with a parachute, of course)
-Build an awesome hotrod, maybe from an early 50's chevy pickup
-Make someone's life better
-Play a part in creating an eco-friendly, self-sustaining society

I can help knock this last one of your list...or try anyhow-
You know most Funeral Home's carry forms/pamplets on just such a thing. In the U.S. its called pre-need forms. You just fill-in the blanks stating all your wishes (that includes a huge party) and make sure most of your family knows where the "final wishes" are stored when you pass on....sorry im a little morbid I guess. Occupational hazard.

*****************************

Move to Ireland.
Be fluent in Gaelic.
Become a best-selling author of romance novels (or at least get one book published).
Learn to forgive and forget.

Get shot. Or maybe swallow a bottle of pills.

Russ, you are so much better than that and you know it...Or should. Be nice to yourself.

**kafine** · 03-30-2006 01:10 PM

Heh...

Make films of the entire Discworld series.

That might take somewhat longer than I've got.

More realistically (and more seriously!) ; Become recognised enough for my artwork that my name is spoken long after my death.

**mongreloctopus** · 03-30-2006 02:42 PM

before i die permanently, i would like to have several temporary death experiences lasting just long enough to not inflict serious brain damage.

**Pyro Yuy** · 03-31-2006 01:20 AM

I'd like to have sex with a nucklear reactor before I die.

**Inverting_world_lines** · 04-02-2006 03:55 AM

isn't "attaining immortality" kind of contradictory to the theme of "What you would like to do before you die?"

Thanks for the tip, though I can't really use a traditional funeral home. You see, I've already hired a friend to plant explosives in my coffin, and I'd prefer to keep collateral damage to a minimum.
*Note to self: Include rapid evac plans for the grand finale...wouldn't want any casualties at a funeral.

no, not really. if you do attain immortality before you die, its something you've done before you die.

I like big butts and I just can't lie, you oth..... no I can't continue

**Neruo** · 04-03-2006 05:59 PM

Hmmm, that woman was wearing clothes, maybe you couldn't see them, but I am sure she was. It's just racist to delete pictures of fat people. Yes, racist.

Fat is a race right?
