Bucket lists

Here is the "Real" bucket list from the movie:

The "Bucket List"

1. Witness something truly majestic
2. Help a complete stranger for the common good
3. Laugh till I cry
4. Drive a Shelby Mustang
5. Kiss the most beautiful girl in the world
6. Get a tattoo
7. Skydiving
8. Visit Stonehenge
9. Spend a week at the Louvre
10. See Rome
11. Dinner at La Chevre d'Or [1]
12. See the Pyramids
13. Get back in touch (previously "Hunt the big cat", added after being earlier added and crossed off)
14. Visit Taj Mahal, India
15. Hong Kong
16. Victoria Falls
17. Serengeti
18. Ride the Great Wall of China

Some of these things mean nothing to me. Some I have done, but would not have counted my life unfinished without them. I keep seeing mock bucket lists on facebook and other places and wanted to see what this was really about. Some things are just more important to some people.
Here's the challenge: this is what lists are all about. Make your own bucket list. As you broaden your perspective, add to the list. As you become more understanding of what's important to you, you learn more about yourself.

Feel free to share here or keep it in a Chock-Full-Of-Nuts can...

Here is some facebook stuff to give you more ideas:
