3. Attend a Stanley Cup Finals game

2. Convince my best friend and my fiance we should move to the tropics, buy a couple bungalos on an island somewhere and start charging stupid tourists $400 per person per day for the privilege of riding on our sail boat.

1. Obtain a bootleg copy of BR and Natalie Portman doing it so we have something to show the tourists in case it rains that day.

Is it 10 or 5 now? I'll do five:

1. Take a NASCAR Winston Cup car for a few laps at 190-plus MPH (preferably Jarrett's 88 UPS Ford)

2. Design and build (or have built) the perfect, ideal guitar of my dreams (have already designed it, actually...). In orange sparkle/glitter finish, of course.

3. Understand women.

4. Go to Ireland and spend about a week or two touring around.

5. Understand women.

hmm, fun thread... these aren't in any particular order.

5. Ride the original tour de France course
4. Survive my 3 years as an Officer in the Marine Corps
3. Meet Taj Mahal (blues musician)
2. Steal Jobs' Mercedes benz
1. Buy a 65ft sailboat, and just sail from port to port until I've seen it all

Yeah, that seems pretty good to me. Actually, I'd be happy dying knowing that I gave back something to humanity. Reminds me of a quote from a lecture Nick Cave gave many years ago...

"When I was about twelve my father asked me, weirdly, what I had done to assist humanity. I had no idea what he was talking about, but turned the question around and asked him what he had done. He said he had written a couple of short stories that had been published in magazines, and I shared in his pride as he showed them to me..."

Someone remind me to ask Tiger about Stefanie a year from now. Someone is whipped / has blinders on.


Meanwhile, I will add this to my list:

4) Take a break from AI and the web in general, and subsequently use that time for other things like books, bbq's and photography.

Maybe I'm just getting old but I feel like the web has become really uninteresting for the most part. At least right now. Probably my summer funk talking, but I have to get away for a while.

So, rather than start a thread I just posted in here. I will talk to you guys after MWNY sometime. Hope it all turns up roses for you who are going. Please, no suicides if Steve doesn't introduce a DDR Power Mac.

Thanks to all those who came up with some truly interesting threads the last few months. There have been some really good ones on everything from soccer to terrorism to the EPA. I enjoyed debating with you guys and appreciate you putting up with my smart-ass comments at times. What can I say, old habits die hard.

Until next time, have a safe and enjoyable summer.

Apparently, if you're a Jewish male at Harvard, objectives 1 through 4 of yours aren't difficult to achieve. I have a friend at Harvard who says that she sleeps around inside that community. So, yeah, I can't prove anything, but my friend isn't the type to spread false rumors.

Say, how does a fella go about converting?



More so, how would a chucklehead such as myself finagle my way into Harvard? Bribery? Blackmail?

I mean if THAT'S all I have to do for a shot at Senator Amidala, well...

5. Lead a vast army from the Med' through the Middle-East into Africa and the Asian sub-continent sweeping all before me.

4. Invent new religeon based upn my divinity that quickly engulfs the world.

3. point out to Stephen hawkings where he's been going wrong, writing a grand unifying theory which effectivly ends the scientific quest for knowledge.

2. Tell a corset clad Nicole Kidman, toying playfully with Cameron Diaz in an attempt to entice me into bed, that I was 'too damn busy' and ' if she can't put a little more effort into our relationship, I may have to call it off'.

1. Remember where i put my keys.
