Now I am knocking on 35 in just 3
months. There is still some hope. Some of these things I am still hoping to
make good on. Ha. There is some interesting commentary
below. It is amazing how my thought
process was when I created this list and how I see it now. There are some not gonna happen things below
that I will exchange for something else and there is some things that I hope
will happen before I turn 36.
