A few years ago I made a list of 100 things I wanted to do
before I die. I've done my best to recreate it (and by recreate I mean
remember a few and steal the rest from other lists I've seen and then forget
half of them). Of course some things that seemed worthy 10 years ago seem
like a waste of a spot now, so some items may have been changed a bit. Comments
and completion dates are added where applicable. As always,
comments are welcome.
