You know, a list of things to do before you kick the proverbial bucket.
Mine are:
1. I would like to organize a Bad Movie Fest in South Africa and invite all of you ~ all expenses paid.
2. #1 would take care of number two ~ I would get to meet you all.
3. I would like to literally travel the world and see every town and city in each country.
4. I would like to visit Universal Studios in Hollywood and go into the Bates House and drink some tea. :drink: :buggedout:
5. I would like to have made several films before I kick it.
6. I would like to visit Althorp Estate and take Princess Diana some roses.
7. I would like to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.
8. After my passing there is something else that I would like to do ~ I would like to have someone take a handful of my ashes and 'antique' Robert Mugabe in the face with them. :smile:
* Have a vacation in Sicily, which is where my grandfather was born
* Attend Trevor's bad movie fest (see above)
* Join the Peace Corps (wish I was interested in this when I was younger and really could have done it!)
* Read everything written by Charles Dickens
* Write a feature-length screenplay (even if it never gets sold or even read by anyone except me)
* Go drinking with Jack Nicholson
* See a baseball game in every major league ballpark
* See a football game (American football, that is) in every NFL stadium
* Go to the Olympics (as a spectator) - my wife and I may go to the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro - - she's from Brazil
* Gamble at the "high rollers" tables in Las Vegas
Here is mine:
1. Visit a country in each continent (except the arctic areas) - All I have left is Europe, South American, Africa, and Australia/Oceania, though I would like to visit some more countries in Asia.
2. I would like to visit the country or countries where my ancestors come from (I know I'm mostly Irish, but there is a lot I don't know yet, especially since I no idea who my dad real father is.)
3. I would like to visit each state in the US.
4. I would like to become the US National Karate Champion (Work in Progress)
5. I would also like to become the World Karate Champion (Work in Progress)
Actually, I need to add one more:
* Take a leisurely drive across the United States with no real plan in mind. Just drive until I find an interesting place, do some sightseeing for a couple of days, then drive to the next interesting place. No timetable, no agenda. Just drive.
Witness each of my favorite sports teams win a championship, in their arena.
Meet many of the badmovies.org'ers.
*slightly* less realistic:
Own a mansion with a game room, indoor pool, theater, and gymnasium.
Own a US city.
Have millions of dollars practically fall into my lap.
A bucket list?
Nope...
I do have a wish list...
1, My first book becomes a best seller. :)
2, Hollywood will demand for my scripts.
3, Live with my wife and child (or children) in a nice house (with the money earned from my story)
4, the freedom to write more books.
5, travel and eat weird foods (No animal sexual orgins or bugs) with family (family dont have to eat weird food) hehe
6, AND NOT BE FAMOUS!!! (I dont want fame, just the money)
Why yes, I do have a list of the buckets I own.
Why do you ask?
Hmm... I sort of do. I have a list of some things I've always wanted to do, but probably never will.
- Direct a Feature Film
- Be one of the few survivors in a zombie attack
- Learn boxing and beat the s**t out of Mike Tyson
- Win the lotto
- Move out, get a good job, and live the rest of my life happy...
Like I said, probably will never happen... :bluesad:

Are you going to scare it at night time, when they try to lift their leg when the other leg is up?
I'm always learning/thinking of new stuff I absolutely must do, so I will probably accomplish very few.
But here are some favorites:
1. Explore Europe: nowhere in particular, it just seems like it would be really cool. If I ever end up going I will definitely do more research.
2. Explore USA: see above
3. Meet/Get autograph from/Have picture taken with any of the following people of interest:
*Bruce Campbell
*Scott Adams
*Kurt Russell
*Roger Corman
*Kevin Murphy
*Angelina Jolie (I have not watched it yet, but I want to see how she would react if I asked her to sign my Cyborg 2 DVD)
*Jean Claude Van Damme
*Bruce Coville
*Dolph Lundgren
*David Hasselhoff (just to say I met him - I joke about him somewhat often)
*Many More!!!
4. Get a letter/photo published in MAD Magazine
5. Create an amazing and unique recipe.
6. Go to some sort of bad movie event/festival
7. Convince the local outdoor theater to start showing movies again.
8. Become world-champion of Mini-Golf
9. Many More!!!
I will probably come up with about 10,000 more within the hour.

It's a good sentiment, but I hope you expect to outlive Mugabe.

Thanks Andy but my health isn't good at the moment. I've had to cancel my trips to London and Potsdam, Germany because of the hassles I have. :bluesad:
No Skull I haven't started it. I have had stories floating around inside my head but actually feeling confident enough in any of it to put to paper is another matter. Part of me also has this bizarre desire to write a huge review book on Movies and Television episodes combined.

Oh, I know the feeling. Confidence is a big step... Sometimes its best to take baby steps.
I started dotting ideas since High School (1986) wow... and I'd attempted to write my first book in 1989 "Scorpion Stinger" ~ its an odd story (based on those "Freaky Friday" rip-offs from the late 1980's that I was getting sick of seeing, the story takes place in near future and the scientist were testing a "mind reading device" on the criminally insane without knowing that the device was pulling the soul from their criminals and placed them onto the testing scientist... I wrote a beautiful outline almost 4 pages long and wrote only 50 pages... saddly I was losing interest in the story because it seemed too much work. Then years later I lost my outline... :(
Quentin Tarantino got me onto script writing in 1996, I figure if I could write 120 pages I'll have a neat movie. My thinking if it worked for Quentin then it could work for me... So I wrote my first script in 3 months (although it took almost 6 years before typed it and copyrighted)
The script is called "The Next Mission" its a mixture of Mad Max, Apocalypse Now and Pulp Fiction... the sad part I have hand written almost 250 pages of material and I had to trim it to a 120 pages... outch!
I wrote my second script in 2008 called "Missing Persons"
QuoteJavanese is a former Zombie Headhunter turned Police Officer that is haunted by the ghost of a child - the victim of a brutal killer. As each day passes and the killer still lives, the ghost becomes more aggressive.
This story takes place after the zombie wars as man is rebuilding civilization. The solution to the zombies is called a "Lifeline" - a band worn around the neck by all occupants of a city. The Lifeline decapitates upon death, preventing the person, who soon becomes a zombie, the mobility to seek out and harm others.
The killer knows how to activate the Lifelines. (script was copyrighted in 2008)
Unfortunately the 120 pages didnt justifed the story (and I wasnt too happy on the reduction of my first script) so I decided to rewrite my script as my first book. I'm at 316 pages. (But I've also been writing on and off last year and hopfully I'll have it completed by summer).

Does that include eathing them? Cause I really like meat.

If you hunt for it. Then it is completing a cycle of nature. I just hate people who abandon and abuse pets, inhumane treatment (as well as altering with f--ked up chemicals) of livestock reserved for food, eating baby animal (such as suckling pigs or veal), animal testing :bouncegiggle:, and wearing animals for clothing.
This is just my opinion. I am guilty of eating meat, but it is mostly poultry and I eat less of it. The only steak I eat is in the carne esade supreme from Filiberto's. Other than that I hunt for it when I can...but I'd rather order a pizza with mushrooms and olives.
Keep on loving meat you bastard. :bouncegiggle:
I kid.
