I was thinking about what I want to do in my lifetime and I thought it would be cool to write up a list and see what other people want to do in their lives. This would be things that people normally don't do and it has to be something you really really want to do or accomplish in your lifetime. Here's my list. Go ahead and post your's.

1) Sky dive

2) Ciff climbing in Yosemitie

3) Pilot a jet fighter

4) Establish my own game design company in Arizona.

5) Work on a game that becomes as great as HL did.

6) Draw my own cartoon.

7) Maybe become a movie director later on.

I know what your thinking. Geez that's a lot of stuff to do. Well it can't hurt to try and do them all. Number 3 may seem impossible to do unless I joined the airforce but if you are really rich you can go to Russia and they will put you through a training camp for civilians and let you pilot one of their migs for a day.

I don't know anything in particular, however, to be able to experience
a higher level of virtual reality would be awesome. Like putting on a
pair o glasses, connect some cables to the brain and then enter a
virtual world. That would be nice, to be able to experience that.

Sky diving could be fun to try. Becoming worldchampion in a sport would
also be nice. I can't come to think of anything else atm, that is more
than usual life, that I want to accomplish.

No offense, but I think you're not just reaching for the sky ... but rather the closest start past the sun.

If you try to make a proper mod on your own you'll be busy for well over 6 years, at the very least.

In the same way spartan posted the same message on vlatitude and here:

1. Live.
2. Get a Cessna or other personal aircraft (And a pilots license).
3. Buy a House.
4. Kill Bill Gates and steal his fortune.
5. Get on the Price is Right.
6. Sex.
6a. Orgy where everyone else is female.
6b. Establish a good sound relationship with a female.
7. Graduate and get a bachelors degree in Architectural science.

Yep... I doubt I can accomplish more that number 1, although number 2 is perfectly feasible (Cessna's go for the same price as most semi-luxurious cars).

Write a book ... find an editor ... get little amounts of money for your blood and sweat having little to no recognition by stuck up assholes at the New York post. :smile:

So, in short ... you better be really good.
