Ultimate/Feasable To Do List

Painthappy · 11-27-2006, 11:38 PM

Here's a good idea for a thread. What is your Ultimate, yet Feasible to do list?

I've been watching Everest on the Discovery Channel (and if you are NOT watching, do so... Tuesday, 10 pm), and these guys giving everything to follow a dream. And then TLC is having this Ultimate list of 30 things to do.

To give an example: I've always wanted to climb Mount Washington here in NH... in the Winter. EMS does guided tours, like climbing everest for me, but in my back yard. Sleep in the observatory at the top, etc.

Skydiving. I have not done this, and would like to do this.

So what am I missing out on in this world that is something I've just got to do? I'm not in my mid life crisis stage yet, but I want to be ready for it

Write a book.
Visit Australia.
Design something that helps people.

My list used to be longer but as I get older fewer things are feasible.

Oh, and doing 2 chicks at once while bungee jumping out of a helicopter that I was flying sounds good too, but I think I will save that one for my final splash in life.

in no particular order:

build a pipe organ
move back to Hawaii
buy a house
build my ideal car/truck
travel to all the continents at least once (Europe and North America down, 5 to go)

Jumping out of a perfectly good airplane, yea that was a good idea.
Its only gonna happen once. Next time I'll wait for the plane to land before getting out,

Feasible = If I had money.

Make the ultimate indoor paintball field. Something between the game Unreal Tournament, and the movie Aliens. Futuristic post apocalyptic. Smoke machines, flashing lights, and a sexy woman's voice saying "Core breach imminent. You have 5 minutes to reach minimum safe distance..."

Fix up my old 1970 Cutlass S. All I would need is a good workspace, a few (30) thousand dollars, and 5 years of my spare time (c:
