    1. Visit the birthplaces of my grandparents (India/Italy/Cyprus).
    2. Build my own Cafe Racer.
    3. Experience zero gravity.

    ... that's all I can think of.

    Yep zero gravity would be fun.

    What's a cafe racer?

And now we have to use it.

    And that's Why I'm Voting Leave.

    How do you expect to run with the wolves at night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies?

    Mix Second Hand Lions with The Bucket List and I should be good to go.

    I'd like to spend time in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland...all of GB / UK. Not just as a tourist, but as a seasonal or temporary resident. It might be interesting and fun to trace my American heritage and genealogy back to its European roots....and meet distant relatives.

    I'd also like to try my hand at hand-made things, before my hands become too arthritic. Throwing pottery, making leaded stained glass, tatting lace, knitting a sweater, crocheting doilies, ink-and-pen calligraphy.

    Eh, the notion of having a bucket list makes me feel you're not living the live you want to live.

    I'd also like to visit Australia, New Zealand, China, India. And maybe be a passenger on a barge or merchant ship, where I could witness and appreciate their labors and camaraderie, along with the scenery, with low fares. Slow boat to China?

    Hazir, I think a "bucket list" means any dream that looks to the future. That helps us stay alive, or at least strive to be alive.

    I second Hazir. If you'd value doing these things so much, why not just do them instead of using the prospect of death as the reason to follow through?

    I was interested in what others had on their Bucket List. That's why. I didn't anticipate
