1. Finally do something that impresses my dad enough that he gets off my back about never finishing college. (that's more something to do before HE dies, I guess)

2. Visit Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Kenya, Japan, Australia, and Washington D.C., in that order.

3. Convince the Dr Pepper guys to make a Vanilla Dr Pepper with no damn cherry in it.

4. Buy a nice house.

5. Finally find the one-armed man, proving my innocence once and for all.

That's an awesome idea, I'm going to add that to my list.

Hmmm Let's see...

2. Wear a chicken suit to work. (I did this once but it's because I worked for Chicken Delight and had to stand on the street corner and wave at people in their cars, not nearly as much fun as walking into a conservative office and carrying a briefcase and laptop.)

3. Write a book that actually gets published.

4. Retire and devote most of my time to rescuing and caring for animals.

5. Take an airboat deep into the Florida Everglades and take pictures.

6. Visit Australia, New Zealand, Greenland and the Antarticia.

7. Learn how to play the cello.

Heh. I must be the only person who doesn't want anything fancy from life.
I want to get my ass out of college, get an easy job, move somewhere quiet with my girl, have kids...
