rainfletcher: Tender, you are breaking my heart! (pauses to cry real tears in his Jameson).... :'(

What I'd like to do before I die:

* Make love to a woman I love
* Climb Denali
* Climb Mt. Everest
* Make a living as a musician (went to college for it, let it atrophy... :'()
* Own a jazz club
* Build a house

I'm sure there's more, but I've never thought of this. And let me add my basso profundo to Nony for starting this thread.

Did anyone ever see Fight Club? This question comes up in that movie when Brad Pitt is driving on the wrong side of the road. He asks everyone in the car to name 3 things they want to do before they die. Everyone can answer it but Edward Norton...Very, very good scene. I remember thinking at the time I needed to go and figure this out. Then forgot about it until this thread came up!

Thanks again, Nony.

rainfletcher: Thought of a couple more (Thanks again, Nony)

* Change my first to 'make love to a woman that love me'.

* Hang out with Maynard Keenan for awhile, collaborate on an album or two and then go on tour where I play various instruments on various songs.

* Discover the meaning of life and explain it to my children
