There was a thread like this on another forum, and it was kinda fun. People were listing the things they would like to have accomplished in their lives, and there were some pretty neat ideas. Try to stay away from thinks like "Having sex with ten Chinese women" (cause after all, who doesn't want to do that).

Before I die, I want to...

1. Live long enough to see my children have children of their own and enjoy my grandkids.

2. Own a house on the beach.

3. Learn to play piano.

That is a good idea. I’m going to have download the tools and see if I can Inventory and upload them.

Half.com has cheaper fees than Amazon, but less traffic. Amazon on top of the percentage they take charges a fee of around a dollar for every book sold. If you sell over 40 a month, you can purchase a premier seller membership (or something like that) which eliminates the dollar fee, but costs 40 a month. What is good about selling books and media is that once they are listed, they stay listed until you remove them, although Amazon will require you to relist a book if it doesn't sell in 30 days (they send an email, and all you have to do is click on a link to relist). Neither site charges you for listing. Others like Alibris do.

I've been getting better at bookselling, and what to look for at sales.

Horrific. He will be in our prayers daily (also for a FULL recovery!). How could these shots do that, I just can’t understand. Something that was supposed to help him. UNFAIR. Thank you for telling me Josh’s story. I pray whenever I see such a thread, but I don’t always remember people’s details.

Wouldn’t you know it, I get slammed by a couple of expert Tit men. Just damn! And I was only trying to help the cute little birdies.

[Hildy]

LOL! Ah...that’s mean! I think there’s space down there in Florida for all of us!

[queenkathy]

I sent out an email asking everyone to pass this information on for prayer. I’ve gotten some good response from that. One person put his pic on her desktop as a reminder to pray for him...

[Hacksaw]

Hike Half Dome again (post health problems);

That sounds like something interesting.

[Doomonyou]

I am with you. I have been fortunate and done about everything I wanted to do. Some gravy would be the following:

2. Be the cause of OBL's long and painful death.

3. Urinate on Jane Fonda's grave.

4. Welcome Allegra home safe and sound.

5. Break the bottle on the bow of the next ship named Enterprise.

It's in Peru.

My grandfather was the anthropologist and medical doctor for the expedition that dug it out. He went to undergraduate school with Hiram Bingham at Dartmouth.

We have his photos. Many are better than those published in the National Geographic.

That is exciting about your Grandfather. Wish you could post those pictures. I did go to a web site and took a tour of the area. Thanks!
