Subsim Bucket List
 

So...let's hear it. :salute:

What are the things you want to do before you " :dead: "?

I've got a few. This isn't the full list. There are many more that I can't remember off the top of my head. I haven't ever put this to writing. Obviously, some of these things have better chances of happening than others. I doubt I'll actually get those autographs...but hey...it might happen.

Here's what I've assembled of mine. I'd like to see what you guys want to do before you die. :)

• Skydive
• Visit Chernobyl
• Get my Pilot's License
• Teach my future kids baseball
• Get an autograph from Eric Church
• Get an autograph from Liam Neeson
• Visit Europe
• Visit other Russian cities
• Become successful at whatever career I choose
• Visit at least 5 museum ships/submarines

Ok I'll bite :hmmm:

• Go out on a date
• Undertake at least one patrol on a submarine
• Visit U-995
• Develop a video game
• Get cast as the Doctor

nothing.
i have seen all the upsides of life, and having fun will not advance my knowledge.
and even if it did, and i would become a wise man, i would still die and humanity would still be stupid.

so... nothing.
what my experience lacks iws sickness and pain, being poor and fear of death.

guess i am ready to.. "kick it".

Already done everything. Bucket list is in the bucket.

I am either very content or very shallow, but in my 50s, I don't really have a bucket list.

I have had a great life, full of strife and joy. I have done wonderful things and experienced terrible things. I fully expect to do more wonderful things and will probably experience more terrible things.

But I don't have any specific items in a bucket list. Maybe I should. I just plan on living and trying to do goodly things in my small way.

I do know that there were some things that I wanted to do when I was younger that just don't seem as important any more.

Done pretty much everything I've wanted as I've gone through life.

I can only think of two:

1) Hopefully be visiting Alaska this year.
2) Meet Neal and some other great friends again at some future SubSim Meet.

See Norway
See Germany
See Italy
See Bora Bora
Make $100,000 a year
Plant a garden
Learn to golf

That's it for now. Some are easy, some are near-term, and some are longer term goals.

Win a Lottery and help keep SubSim going even longer.

Repaint the GTO back to it's original color.

Visit Australia and New Zealand.

Find a metorite from Mars.

All of which will probably never happen. But it's nice to dream. ;)

One of the main points of this thread...

Everyone has dreams... :yeah: I'd sure as heck love to be the Captain of a WW2 American Fleet Boat...

That won't happen though... :oops: :D

Not likely to happen...but...

Do a paradrop from a C-47
Travel the world - visiting, Egypt, Russia, Germany, France, Italy, America, Japan, Australia and Kenya.
Walk on the surface of Mars or at the very least witness someone do it
Fly, not as a pilot or if I do then make it the last item on the list... :O:

@Mookie
I mis-read yours, I thought it said "visit Tora Bora.":o


My list would be:
See a White shark in the wild.
Ride on a submarine
Have a pint with Jim and others:D

Come see the PT boat.:cool:

Aren't you in Oregon or something? :hmmm: That's a bit of a distance for me.

Maybe sometime...If i'm ever up that way.... :woot:

:rotfl2: Note to any government agents reading this: I am NOT looking to visit Tora Bora or the Taliban. Thank you!

:shifty:



Tiger sharks are better.
