100 Things for Your Bucket List

You may have seen the movie, "The Bucket List" - a movie about a couple of guys (Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman) who set out to complete a list of things they want to do before they kick the bucket. If you haven't I suggest you do because it was funny and good. I assume the movie was the inspiration for the following meme, which has been seen out and about on the internet. Feel free to copy this list, highlight the items you've completed and add/delete comments where appropriate.
