My Half Century Bucket List

Posted: May 5th, 2010, 5:12 pm
by Lavabe
I have now a little less than one year to do some things before I begin my 50's.

SO... given my current financial state of SERIOUS TROUBLE, what should I do before I turn 50?

Here are some things I've already done this year:
1) Attended an NCAA Final Four game, and saw my niece cheerlead.
2) Turned 49...
...
Yeah, that's the trouble. What else should I do?

visit 5 attractions within driving distance
http://www.roadsideamerica.com/
(such as World's Largest Whiskey Barrel in Bardstown, KY or Big Mike's Mystery House - admission $1 - in Cave City, KY. While in Cave City you can spend the night in a Cement Wig Wam Motel)
In August you can attend the World's largest yard sale - it stretches from North Covington,KY to somewhere in Alabama. One of these days when I retire, I'm going to see how far down that 127 mile corrider I can make it!

Go to Coney Island and eat 50 hot dogs in 50 minutes like Kobayashi or whoever the heck it is who won the hot dog eating contests before the fat American dude dethroned him last year, or was it the last 2 years?

Memorize the song 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover, but don't implement any of them. 8-|

Joey Chestnutt I think is the American dudes name. I'm not sure that he is that overweight though.

An important element of any "bucket list" is that it reflect the dreams of the person it's created for. What have you "always wanted to do"? What makes you say, "Gee, I wish I could do that."

What about the K Academy? After a three year absence, it's back this year (June 2-6).

Must go under 200 pounds... that's 52 pounds from now.

VERY likely, given my summer plans.
