OK, lets talk bout BUCKET LISTS and Im NOT gonna sugar coat it!!! Bucket lists are for wannabes!! They are bad medicine!! Pick a couple of places or things that you have always wanted to do and set a GOAL and make it happen. These books...e.g. 1000 places to see before you die are poison!! How negative!! They are maddening and totally subjective. Live in the moment! Live in the NOW!! And..... for those of you that flaunt your state or country count like scalps taken...STOP DA NONSENSE!! If you are counting stops in airports or on a cruise ship they DO not count!! Spending a few hours in port is NOT seeing a country...feeling its texture and understanding its culture is seeing a country!! ALSO....Flaunting your 7 continents count. If you did not spend time at one of the research centers or do a climbing expedition..and cruised...you cannot count Antarctica!! or if you took a short ferry from Spain to Tangiers, had lunch and returned, you cant count AFRICA!! and finally...if you went to one location in Africa or Australia or any of the continents, DO not say I went to e.g. Africa You didnt!! There are 52 countries in Africa!! It drives me crazy when someone sez Im goin to Australia, or Africa or Europe!! Exactly where are you going? For you to count a state, or country you must spend a minimum of 2 night. For a city...1 night!! Respectfully submitted ELG Chairman of da Been There, Done DAT World Committee
