I'm talking about really crazy "would love to do" stuff, not real hard-and-fast goals. Or maybe they could be both. Some of my stuff is stuff I'll probably never get to do, either because I'll never be able to afford it, or it's just not in the cards, but it's still on my list.

In no order:
1. have kid(s) - x
2. own a 911 - x
3. go into space
4. visit every continent, incl. Antarctica - 3/7
5. see all the ancient & modern wonders of the world
6. drive a 959
7. go skydiving
8. survive a plane crash uninjured
9. Carnegie hall debut
10. make a real and lasting contribution to the world

I'm a little dicey on actually admitting to #8, in that old rule of "be careful what you wish for!" but it's a weird preoccupation I've always had. Just something relatively safe, like overrunning the runway on landing, or the Jetsblue front wheel malfunction from a couple years ago.

#3 will likely never happen, but if I could ever afford an extra few hundred K, I'd spend it on that. #7 will likely happen someday. #6 I hope would, but who knows?
