4. Get arrested.

5. Sleep with 2 women at the same time.

6. Visit at least 1 country where you don't speak the language.

Ray_Maines have you seen britney lately? She looks awful. At the store the other day I saw this picture of her with cottage cheese in her bum and really bad acne. She's been falling off lately. Maybe you should edit your post to say Britney in her prime because I'm down for that too! Let me just say "I know you want to hit that" Offspring


Seriously though these are all great posts> I may have to take some advice from you guys and put some of these things on my list.

Rocket - LOL ; ) That wasn't one of the one's I was thinking of...
Can I be greedy? Three purely indulgent selfish things I forgot:
- Get my knee down
- Be able to do a decent wheelie
- Ride a dirt bike on dirt : )

SNOW!? I love an adventure!
I'd like to take my other half and my step-daughter somewhere for a white Xmas one year, I'd love to go to the US again and they've never been, and I've never been to NY... but I'm open to suggestions : )

In the meantime, I'm hoping to have all bedrooms in my house air-conditioned before this Xmas...

My wife has family in Australia , she just got back from visiting Brisbane and Sydney yesterday...brought me a Morgan and Wacker tee shirt for my collection
