gee, thanks --- I also should go to bed, but want to play....
better to have forgotten #46 than #1
Was the famous person you met...Bette Midler??
I love Niagara Falls. It's beautiful from the Maid of the Mist boat that almost takes you right beneath the gushing waters. Scary and fun.
I would also love to see Michelangelo's David and horseback ride through the Grand Canyon.
Fun meme! I might try this one!
VioletSky,
~~That would just be weird.
Scarlet,
~~Ha ha! I'd hardly call that "meeting." I've met 2 basketball players that later became sports announcers: Jim Spanarkel and Mike Gminski. I even hung out with Jim's mom at Duke events and once sat with her in Madison Square Garden. I also met Michael Trucco (Battlestar Gallactica), Rodney Dangerfield and two soap stars: James Mitchell and Peter Bergman. Peter's wife was expecting their first child and he wanted to hold my baby. James was teasing him about it and we stood there and chatted. Oh wait THREE soap stars: I met Walt Willey after his stand-up comedy show here in town. And I met Dave Attell after his comedy show in Raleigh, NC. He's VERY short. I think that's all.
I have a similar thing on my blog, except it's just a list of 100 things I want to do before I die and I get to cross them off as I do them. Actually I don't think there are even 100 there yet. But I agree with all your things in red, although I have held a praying mantis. I don't know why that's special as in something someone should do though. It's just a bug
Xup,
~~True that and the only bug I touch is the cricket. When they come in the house, I catch them and put them outside.
That was fun! :)
Your little note at the end cracked me up. heh.
Jammie,
~~Yeah, I was wondering if riding in front when my second husband got conked out when his head hit the ice rink counted when I remembered my car accident.
Nice. It is a fun meme, isn't it.
