Default Anything you want to do?

Anything in your life that you want to do or learn how to do that you haven't yet?

My two things now are ...

1) learning to play the guitar
2) snowboarding

It's weird I live in Michigan and have never snowboarded before, but I every summer I do watersports.

So this week I'm starting to learn how to play the guitar, simple stuff, but it's alot different than guitar hero lol.

Other things I've crossed off my list are...

1) getting my black belt (American Kenpo)
2) getting my bike license.

1) Go over 200 miles per hour in a car or bike.
2) Build my own engine from bare block to running and in the car.
3) Make a difference in some ones life.
Also right now I am working on a charity at school where we sponsor a teacher in africa. The teachers over there barely make enough to survive so it is hard to get anyone to stay. The whole thing is really puts how lucky we are here into perspective.

I would really like to meet John Lydon AKA Johnny Rotten. I would thank him for being such an inspiration to me.

I'd like to own an '03 Cobra, has to be black.

I'd also like to learn how to play the guitar. I could have learned before now, because my dad plays guitar/bass. I'm just a lazy-*** and I haven't asked him to teach me, yet.

I'd like to completely restore my grandmother's 96 year old house from the top to the bottom.

I can't think of anything else right now...

I live on a small ultralight/aircraft airport that regularly does skydiving. Every weekend, actually. I'm used to the sound of planes at 8am and when I'm washing my car I'll hear people happily screaming and I look up and see all these parachutes, haha. When you do want to go, let me know and I'll see what I can do/arrange for you.

How about you seduce them? No... wait. We might end up getting shot if you try that ****. As far as I know, it's not even near 500 bucks to go skydiving there.

I sent you a PM.

As for #2, why the hell would you want to marry someone's ***? Is the rest of her not good enough for you, you picky bastard?

And as for #4, http://www.carsonkressley.com/

The skydive place I sent you a link to isn't in Tampa. Although the name is quite deceiving. Look on the 'directions' link on the page I sent to you. It'll tell you exactly where it is. If we ever meet in Lakeland, that will be the best time to go.

I would love to do the honors of taking pictures... from the ground. I will not go up in the plane with you. I have a fear of flying.

Hahahaha. I love those but, I think I'd rather make a hippy explode with my mind.

Hmm for me I'd like to:

1) Skydive
(I live next to an airport, too actually. The guy who does the drops here only charges $160, but he's insane so I won't fly with him)

2) Do an entire 5.0 build for the drag strip
(maybe starting that late next year)

3) Work for John Force Racing

4) Climb to the top of New York New York Casino in Las Vegas in a gorilla costume
(going to vegas sunday night so maybe this could happen...)

Live in as many countries as possible.




I honestley didn't think skydiving was worth the cash (and I payed 140). it was fun, but I expected more of a 'thrill' factor.

some of you should add SCUBA diving to your list. **** is crazy, it is as other worldly as you can get on this planet.

EDIT: I was snowboarding next to Shaun White today! I kid you not. I was in Breckenridge for the 'Dew Tour' and we were kind of circling the half pipe. Boarding down, I hear a boarder next to me, look over and its Shaun White. Black bandanna, oakley goggles, black helmet with long red hair everywhere, and of course his competition jersey. For a sec it felt like I was riding with him, LOL. My claim to fame.

I would love to own pretty much every muscle car out there.
I would like to own a sweet house that has a nice clean garage with a nice clean floor, and perhaps owning a performance shop. I would like to see my whole entire family over in Italy, then after that we swing over to Ireland to meet the rest of the clan. But perhaps, one of my main goals, is to have a special someone in my life, and accomplish something in my life, truly be succesful in what ever I do.
