    100 things to do before you die.

    I caught a rerun of the now cancelled TV show 'Boomtown', which featured a character who was slowly working his way through a list of a hundred things he wanted to do before he died. It got me thinking, and I want to start compiling a list for myself.

    What would you put on your list?

    DOesn't have to all be funny or serious, but please give it some thought!

    Get back to full fitness, and competing nationally again.
    Get my degree, a first will do nicely thanks.
    Finish my album and find someone who actually likes it.
    Should the album become popular, or perhaps even develop a cult following, I'd like to die onstage.

    Not much there, really.. I'm quite content in myself, and wouldn't mind if I died tomorrow.

    You know why people have all these wishes though?, real reason is that the human brain has to set itself objectives - as a species we deal with uncertainty really badly, 100 things to do before we die, even if we don't do them provide a comfort net of things we need to do.

    maybe.. i mean, i wouldnt be pissed off that i hadnt done something if i died tomorrow. i'd be pissed off, but not about 1 particular thing (ie i'd be annoyed that i'd not lived longer and experianced more, but if there is something i really want to do - say parachute - then i'd just do it )
