I notice many people said their bucket list was complete, curious what was on them? I like some of the list items mentioned, it inspired me to add a few. One thing I like about this site is many of the posts have really pushed me to see what else I could do. Thanks for that.

I started my bucket list before I knew the term "bucket list" sometime in high school. since then I have crossed some things off my list and added things as new goals have come to mind. With any luck I'll cross them all off the list but honestly, I suspect if I have done this right some won't get crossed off as I will know I pushed the limit. This weekend i crossed one off the list (run half-marathon). This is my list cutting out the more boring ones like places I want to visit:

Own an Antique Car -DONE X 5
Find a beautiful, intelligent wife (who is great in bed and loves me) -DONE (parenthetical added after divorce from first wife)
Have children -DONE
Get my pilots license -DONE
Go Skydiving -DONE X 3
Rebuild a car engine
Get my PhD -DONE
Get published (journals, conferences, presentations, etc.) -DONE X Few
Rebuild an antique car -DONE
Run a half-marathon -DONE
Run a marathon
Do a triathlon
Fly a helicopter -DONE
Land a sea plane
Own my own plane
Write and publish a book
Build a car from scratch (kitcar or other)
Be a stand up comedian once in front of an audience
Pilot a plane to every state in continental US
Build or own an amphibious vehicle
Race in an auto race
Hunt and kill my own food once (deer or duck)
Create a kick-a** garage / man cave
Take wife on weekend getaway where we go to an airport and decide where to fly at the counter
Restore a car with my son
Make a comfortable living in business, retire and become a college professor (again)
Do everything I can to help my kids become more successful than me

If the stars align (the really hard ones):
Get into outer space
Own a Tucker
Make a major positive impact on the world (make world better place)
