1) buy a house
2) pay a house off
3) have kids
4) see those kids off to college, out of my house and into their spouses.
5) stay married
6) drive something really fast either on the autobahn or the ring.
7) make some heli snowboard trips
8) travel back to fiji again and hopefully a few other places man hasn't completely ruined yet.
9) retire comfortably
10) sit on a porch and talk shop with both my brothers when we're all over 70.
I'm a simple guy with simple goals.
overbear... I like your list. My quote on myspace.... I never say john wayne on the sand of Iwo Jima. My grandfather died in WW2 as well. I have been doing as much research as I can to find out exactly where and find his nose art... B-25 pilot. A good one. I have bought a vet lunch, thanked a WWII vet. I've sat alone on horseback watching a hawk fly... I did it in the mojave though. It really is that nice. But it's better with someone you love. Northern lights on horseback is brilliant. I've ridden a saddle bronc in a rodeo. My step father was a bull rider.

Great list.
I have a similar list as yours and I've also done #'s 4 and 5
Although I have to add, I also want to meet a German, a Japanese WWII vet (My grandfather was a Chinese WWII fighter pilot)
See, if you watched Ken Burns' "The War" and "Band of Brothers" - German and Japanese soldiers must have gone through even MORE hell than Americans. Cause things just kept getting worse and worse for them! They weren't evil or malicious, just regular Joes like the Americans who were swept up in unfortunate times.
German and Japanese lost an entire generation of young men, and for Germans these were young men who lost THEIR fathers in the generation before. Then your whole country is destroyed. The allies firebombed the crap out of a lot of German and Japanese civies as well.
Seriously, I want to meet German and Japanese vets and hear their stories, going home after the war to a broken nation and rebuilding both countries into the modern economic powerhouses. It's crazy, that postwar transformation
I'm pursuing a couple of my bucket list entries right now, before I get on with my professional life and "grow up and be an adult" so to speak (you always gotta do that one last thing while you're in your 20s)
1) fight Muay Thai in Thailand
2) fight (and win) a professional MMA fight
#2 may be a stretch, so I'm just hoping to get matched up with some street fighter who trains in his garage and doesn't know what he's doing

i once heard a stat a few years ago, that like 8000 WWII vets are dying daily...
so they are getting fewer and fewer...
