Bucket List Updated.

So a while back, actually November of 2009 I posted THIS list.  It's a long list of things I wanted to do before I died.  Thought I'd take the opportunity to edit that and update it now as it's been over a year and a lot of things have changed since then.

Yes, I'm a CopyCat. Yes, I'm ok with that.

Inspired by a few blogs I read  here and here.  I thought, what a great thing to do right now.  Lately I've had a bad case of the I wants.  I thought it would be a great time to refocus and set some life goals.  A list of 100 to be exact.  Here goes.
