For the people that have never seen the movie, a "Bucket List" is a list of things that you have always wanted to do before you kick the bucket. I thought the premis was interesting and there are a few things that I have never gotten around to doing and I was wondering what the top 3-5 things would be if you have to make a list. Mine are probably deceptively simple...or...boring at least...

1) Learn to fly a helicopter (not RC...the real thing)

2) Become fluent in a foreign language

3) Learn to play the piano

I somehow filled my bucket up. I think my cancer treatments and extended hospital stay played a big part. Sometimes things just happen that way. Helping others fill their buckets make my day.

1) Extended tour....say 4-6 months of Europe. I'd like to spend about a month in Italy, a month in France, a month in the U.K then divide up the rest of checking out Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and whatever else we could fit in.
2) Run a marathon.....nothing too heavy just reasonable.
3) Finish my basement.....:eek::D:D
....they is probably another one rolling around in the back of my head somewhere.

Done it all. Built nuke warheads, backpacked the Grand Canyon, climbed a mountain, and many toher things most will never do, no just waiting for the big dirt nap.

To be the best friend my wife has ever had, and to be a wonderful influence upon my children.

The rest has and will continue to fall in to place!!!

I have thought of adding helicopter to my existing ratings but then I saw the price tag YIKES. Would have been 15k some years ago and now that gas has doubled I don't want to know
