Fictional Bucket List

Ashley did this over on her blog yesterday and I thought it was an awesome idea. And, if you know me, I'm always looking for good post ideas that I can steal. Actually, I asked permission to do the same thing on my blog, which she so graciously gave. So thanks, Ashley! So the idea … Continue reading Fictional Bucket List

…And the Home of the Brave

Kids, did you know that we have a minor league baseball team affiliated with the Boston Red Sox right here in southwest Virginia? Salem has had a minor league baseball team for as long as I can remember. I’m sure they existed long before that, too. When I was a kid, they were the Salem … Continue reading …And the Home of the Brave

Reviewing the Bucket List

I can't believe it, but it's been more than three years since I first decided to post a bucket list to the blog. And, in that time, I've barely looked at the thing to see if I'm making any actual progress. No, I'm not dying. At least, I don't think I am.

In 1998, the American Film Institute unveiled its list of the 100 greatest movies of the previous 100 years. Their list began with 400 movies which were nominated. From there, 1,500 leaders in the film industry were polled, whittling the list down to the 100 that were presented on a television special. In 2007, the … Continue reading AFI Top 100 Films

Previously on Big Brother

Item number 73 on my Bucket List is to spend a summer living in the Big Brother house. I've applied once before and never heard anything from CBS. Kids, I've decided to give it another shot. Thankfully, this isn't like that time I decided to try out for American Idol and had to drive to … Continue reading Previously on Big Brother

Bucket List

Recently, Alex over at Only Bad Chi did a post about the bucket list and I thought it might be a good idea post my own bucket list. I actually compiled this thing several years ago on my old blog, so a few of these things have been crossed off. Which I'm kind of glad … Continue reading Bucket List
