geebsSo one of the entries on that 75 things a man must do list I posted about in my last entry was "make a list of 75 things to do before you die". As they said, 75 is actually hard when you sit down and try to list it. So, I figured I'd try for the less lofty goal of 25. And after an hour, here's what I came up with:
1) make a 1000 yard bullseye with a sniper rifle in high wind.
2) fire a machine gun out the door of a low flying helicopter.
3) personally restore a muscle car/trick out a rice-burner.
4) skydive.
5) rappel down the side of a tall building.
6) cook a big breakfast. Perhaps a tasty omelet, or french toast with various breakfast meat sides.
7) make the ultimate burger.
8) write at least one recap for TWoP that gets posted.
9) help two souls find happiness together. Preferably in a way that doesn't screw someone else over.
10) win a car race.
11) win a fighting game tournament.
12) have a threesome with a mad cute blonde snowflake and an asian hottie.
13) spend a week in Vegas living it up.
14) visit LA and have a several minute long conversation with a famous star.
15) do a hot famous chick.
16) take and complete a stunt driving course. Successfully drift.
17) take and complete a CQB shooting course covering pistol, smg, shotgun and assault rifle techniques. Run through a killhouse type set up.
18) successfully disarm a bomb.
19) rig something to blow and blow it up (on a testing ground!)
20) get at least EMT-B certified.
21) solve a real murder mystery.
22) do a musical. (As in a major singing part, not like a stagehand or background vocals)
23) fly a drone. get to shoot a missile at something.
24) fire a mini-gun. fire a fully automatic shotgun. fire a fully
automatic grenade launcher.
25) sing the song a bride and groom dance to at their wedding.
Some of those are doable. Others are about impossible outside of joining the military or getting some really good contacts. But more than a few do require a bit of time and cash.
