There just doesn't seem to be enough time or means to do everything you really want to do. But what would be near the top of your list if money were no object?

I have never been in a limousine. I'd love to have one chauffeur me around for the day.....to the grocery store, Dollarama, Chic-Fil-A....Target! Anywhere I want to go....in style!

You?

    Be a running guide for a blind person during a race - maybe a half marathon distance or shorter. Not sure I can handle anyone else on a marathon - I have to focus too much on getting myself to the finish line!

    It's probably not very glamorous with so many on here being from the States but I would love to visit NYC and pay my respects at Ground Zero, that day really touched me.

    That is really nice and totally a selfless act

    It isn't in my control, but I'd like to see the Buffalo Bills win a Superbowl and the Buffalo Sabres win a Stanley Cup in my lifetime. Something tells me my bucket is getting kicked before either happens though.

    Well it's not *entirely* selfless. I'd get a high off being able to do that with someone who might not be able to otherwise :)

    Catch all 7 species of black bass. I've caught 4 different species in one day here in Texas, but getting a redeye, shoal, and suwannee bass will take me to some backwoods places that are absolutely amazing.

    It is still a very nice goal to achieve, I hope you do it.

    Nothing but respect for Redwing Nation...a truly great American hockey market. Sabre Nation is right there with ya though, but minus all the Cups and fun of a championship. As a Sabres fan I WISH we had the success you guys have had.

    P.S. It is ironic that the hockey talk that found its way into this thread was between two people from North Carolina.

    Now you've made me feel guilty.......The Sabres aren't that bad I suppose.

    No, they're that bad. But we love 'em anyways.

    Ok....well I am from Toronto, Canada where hockey actually originated back in the....past....sometime....so, as an authority and a Leaf fan (a very sad, despondent, unsatisfied, Leaf fan) who is a rival of the Sabres.....I just want to share my regrets with you that you probably won't see that item on your bucket list come to fruition....but if it helps....I won't see that for the Leafs either.

    You are probably right about both teams. That said, the Sabres tend to have the leafs' number, so I can at least enjoy that.

    P.S. Tim Hortons started in Hamilton. Toronto needs to stop trying to steal it.

    I would love to learn both. My two left feet and inability to do different moves with my left and right hand at the same time prevents me from being at one with the piano.....they may be attainable for you, tho. Go for it!
