Have you seen the movie "The Bucket List"?

It was released in 2007 and stared Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. It is the story of 2 ill men who go on a road trip with a wish list of all the things they want to do before they kick the bucket.

Now I think its sad that these men waited until they were ill before they thought about and went about achieving their wish list, I wonder what stopped them from starting earlier.

I wont be waiting for an illness in fact i'm starting right away on your list. I have made a start on my 101 things todo before I die list.
