Thinking About a Bucket List
I ran across Ted Leonsis' list again recently.
I used to have a list, but the site got taken down and I lost the page. It's likely on a machine in the basement, and maybe I'll get it up and running again sometime.
In the meantime, I need to do a new list. Something to work on.
I'm saving Ted's list here, more to give me areas in life to think about than because I want to do things he has done.
