NFT: What are the top 3 things on your bucketlist

2)Run for political office.
3)Have an affair with Margot Robbie.

Russia, river cruise through Hungary, Austria, Germany, Belgium.

Invert your order and you're on the money.

Off the top of my head -- (1) Go to Olympic N.P., (2) see the Northern Lights with my family, (3) return to Italy.

2. Never go sky diving
3. Never go para-sailing
I'm 100 percent successful so far.

to have a bucket list. Or maybe just too apathetic in general separate from my generation.

I don't even really have any goals.

Millennials and later generations definitely are more dreamer-ish - if I can paint with a broad brush.

My youngest puts together a summer bucket list every year the past few years and has a goal to do as much of it as possible. She has things like "have a lemonade stand for charity" "go to a water park" "10,000 shots" (a hockey thing), It's almost inspiring. Almost.

Depends how realistic we're being. I guess, in the realm of plausibility:

1) Watch my children grow up happy/healthy and turn into good adult people
2) Win Jeopardy
3) Hole in 1

until I got to go (for free!) to SB 45 in Dallas for Pit vs GB.

Great experience. Def would never have had funds for a trip like that. My uncle won a trip I think thru Boomer and Carton and took me as I was working for him at the time and his kids were too young. Man, we ate like kings in Dallas.

It was thru Big Blue Travel and I highly recommend them if any of you guys were ever considering seeing a Giants road game. Awesome people and a fantastic experience.

1) Live on an island for a few years. I'm in my thirties but it's a hope of mine to retire and live on an island for at least a few years. Perhaps snowbird to an island as opposed to say Florida.

2) Put an inground pool in my yard.

3) Go to every giants game in a given season. All 16 games.

F**kin A, man

1) Retire healthy and wealthy enough to enjoy it
2) See #1
3) See #2

2. To see them driven before me
3. To hear the lamentations of their women

1. Visit France and Germany.
2. Trip to see West Coast national parks with the kids (did GC, Utah's NP's and Rocky Mountain NP a few years ago)
3. Thru hike the Appalachian Trail

1. Win the lottery
2. Buy the Giants
3. Sponsor an F1 team and go to every race

I like the way you think
:-)

I also plan out a few places I would like to go each year. But, I don't really have a bucket list. Bucket lists seem almost unattainable or really pie in the sky.

Life is short. Write out the things you would like to do and simply do them. Dont wait.

1. Graduate college
2. Get married
3. Start a family

I have accomplished all 3. Everything else I accomplish is gravy.

Mine in order:

1. Attend the Masters

2. Buy a 2nd house on Loon Lake up near Lake George (Been going there since i'm a kid and a dream of mine is to own a house on that lake by the time i'm 50, I got 10 years, i'm gonna make it happen)

3. Several weeks long trip to Europe - spending time in Ireland, Italy, France and Germany. Never been and hope to do it in the next few years while my kids are young enough to still want to go with us and not on their own or with friends.

Certainly changes as you get older. I'll never get myself in the kind of shape necessary to surf the north shore of Hawaii, so that's off now. Probably time to rule out two chicks at the same time, too. Oh well. I think:

1) Raft the Grand Canyon from top to bottom
2) Live on a boat (not a cruise) for an extended period in the Caribbean
3) Play the Main Event at the WSOP

1. Visit Israel (planned in 2020)

2. See a game in all 30 MLB parks (have been to 11, but 4 of those have since been replaced including old Yankee Stadium)

and

3. Take a six to eight week tour of Europe focusing on Spain and Eastern Europe

number 1 is out of the way, i was in Indianapolis for SB 46

number 2 is golf at St. Andrews.

and for number 3 i like the idea of the 2 chicks at the same time.

1. Win the lottery

2. Win Survivor

3. Live a happy life until I am 110

if you win $500 in a scratch off does that count?

2. spend a weekend with two female pornstars
3. spend a week on an island with 3 female pornstars and two SI models

2 gallon
Wooden
Janitorial (with the mop wringer thing)

Years ago I think I wanted to see every team live. I only have one left to check off. Not really trying but I have been going to more away games lately.

Uhhh...

Attend to Wrestlemania

See my mom live as long as she can

I don't know what else. Move out of NJ before I turn 40. Retire and live a long life?

I'm a simple guy. I really can't think of anything that I have a passion to accomplish going forward. I've been to Israel and Italy and France, the only places I really wanted to see. I've seen a lot of this country. I'm going to Oregon for the first time in August which should be nice. I'd like to go to Tuscon for a couple of days, to New Mexico, maybe back to New Orleans again for some great Cajun food, but if none of those things come to pass, no big deal. I'd just like to stay healthy for as long as I can and then go quickly.

"Be careful what you wish for"- D.J. Trump

I've been fortunate enough to do some fun/cool things, so far. If I'm half as fortunate, here on out, I might find myself being able to travel to some interesting destinations ... maybe live somewhere I really love in retirement ... definitely know the love of grandchildren one day, and to spend a good long time with them and my kids, watching them as parents ... and as sad as this may sound, to have them all outlive me, including my wife. That may be selfish (in a strangely backward kind of way), but I'm really not sure how well I would cope, if I lost them.

Damn. Kind of a downer. lol Sorry. OK, so ...

Right now on my list - just today, and into the weekend - go swimming at my sister's house tonight, get into the jacuzzi later and relax, have some good food and some way-too-expensive scotch she has allegedly purchased for my arrival, and laugh far too loud with a bunch of family, also headed there this very moment.

African safari trip.

Buy a lake/beach house.

And simply because tomorrow ain't guaranteed, someday walk my now 1 year old daughter down the aisle.

... with those who aren't "bucket list" kind of guys.

no bucket list I am on house money. Anything I do is bonus time at this point plus I've already eaten Kangaroo.

Never got the two girls at once thing what's the point of disappointing two women at the same time?

I'm right there with you. Couldn't give a damn less.

have anything. One of mine for a long time was to own an expensive luxury watch, but I crossed that one off at my 50th birthday last year. I guess the two main things for me would to continue to play jazz guitar and enjoy bicycle riding for as long as I am able. I haven't traveled much at all. At 51, I have only been out of country one time (and that was only to Canada in the 1980s). Travel doesn't interest me. I honestly can't think of anything else. My daily life is good, so I am pretty happy with the status quo.

African Safari. Will be doing that next summer

Become the GM of the Mets Will never happen

Play in the US Open. My handicap is an 8. Will never happen

My Dad goes on an ice fishing trip each year at Loon Lake. He has a 40" Northern mounted in his office that he pulled from there.

My Top 3 on my bucket-list are:
1. Visit every National Park and National Monument. Not just to visit and get a pin, but to actually fully partake in what each site offers. I've been to quite a few throughout my life, but have quite a few to see. I'll likely hit the road in the next 5 years and make a concerted effort to accomplish the necessary travel.

2. Thru-hike the Appalachian trail. Went to school that bordered the trail and spent many hours hiking the area. Gave shelter to a few thru-hikers and listened while they shared their experience. It sparked a desire to hike it myself. That was 20 years ago. If I am going to accomplish the feat, then it will likely have to be in the next 10 years.

3. Take my final dive into the Tongue of the Ocean. I'm not suicidal, but I'm not keen on slowly rotting away in old age. When the time is right, I will suit up for the final time and take the dive.

Take my grandson to a Giants game. (This fall in Charlotte).
Visit my mother's birth home in Ireland.
Become a great-grandfather.
Last two are probably not going to happen because of age and illness.

cause it could be a very, very long wait !

Meh. That whole wishful impacting activist, lazy, college grad, "can't even" shit you see being highlighted on FOX News or whatever is completely overblown. If that's what you mean. Some could be like that. I don't know.

All the ones in my close inner circle and on Facebook are more so blue collar people who just want to come home and say fuck you to the world and enjoy their apartments, wives, cats or dogs and everything else.

If anything, we like to bring up the past a bit too much. Everything is about when we were kids in the 90s and high school in the 00s when we do get together for boring events like weddings, reunions or when a friend is leaving the area and he wants one last get together. The times, the movies, "when WWE was WWF" Hey Arnold Doug Rugrats. Etc.

Then it gets boring and the night ends up being way shorter than you ever imagined it being going into it because you just want to get the hell home.

Bucket list

1. Have sex
2. Move out of moms basement
3. For someone to call me a boss.

incomprehensible gibberish......

But I learned the hard way to appreciate everything and everyone I have in my life. At any given moment it can be taken from with no notice. While do this or that or go here or there is nice instead be thankful for what you have.


Ps 2 chicks at once is definitely not overrated

Us "millenials" like to live a simple life.

Better?

Oh fuck didnt see your same boring jabs up here. I'm not going to roast you with the usual, you know, about being another worthless college professor. I was going to mention too about teaching worthless college classes and that sort of thing.

Instead, I will praise you because you stood tall in a thread among BBI drunks and stupid jokes that you never had a drink of alcohol in your life.

Proud of you, little trooper.

Visit the D-Day beaches at Normandy

Hike the Ho Chi Minh trail

See the pyramids in Egypt

The most important stuff - completed:

1) Completed my college education
2) 2 great kids
3) Great job I still very much enjoy after 37 years


Other stuff completed:

1) Visited all 50 states
2) View a total solar eclipse in person
3) (something I won't mention explicitly, but mentioned by others already)


1) Visit all 7 continents
2) Become a grandfather
3) Retire while still healthy and with enough money to live comfortably or maybe a little better than comfortably
