My 101 in 1,001 List

May 15, 2007 12:35

I recently posted about a favorite blogger posting a 101 goals in 1,001 days list.

I noticed curtishart is giving the list a try. It sounds like he's compiling a good list, so I'll post my list, hoping to give him some ideas ( Read more... )

101 in 1001

Okay... curtishart May 15 2007, 18:32:29 UTC

This helps actually.

Funny you and I both have 'suits' as one.

Re: Okay... cgronlund May 15 2007, 18:43:38 UTC

I've never even worn a suit.

Once I lose enough weight where it won't be a "wear once and then donate," because I've lost more weight, I will buy a suit or two.

I do like dressing nicely...and ya know...Big Bad Voodoo Daddy WILL be at the Bass March 7-9 in 2008. If that's not an excuse for a suit, I don't know what is :)

For number 61, I'd suggest MeetUp.com. I'm a member of a few singles and dining out groups, and they are a blast.
My goal is one outing a week.

And yes, we can be reclusive, can't we? :)

cgronlund May 16 2007, 12:03:14 UTC

Yep, very reclusive.

meetup.com can be very cool.

I definitely need to get out more.

the_red_fez May 16 2007, 12:05:51 UTC

But the big difference between you and me is that you have a hottie at home to be reclusive WITH.

Me, I have to go out and find one.

This is a great motivator to go out.
You have the great motivator to stay in :)

"Swim in the Texas Gulf"

Sharks!!! Oh, wait. You're safe in the water, you just don't want to be on the beach for too long because they drill through the sand and getcha!

Very cool list :)

I'm tellin' ya, Mom...when I realized there was water beneath the sand when Granny and Pop took Laurie and me to Florida, I was convinced sharks could get me through the sand :)

Of course I'm the kid who--after Laurie and Debbie took me to see Jaws when it came out--was convinced the sounds of squirrels on the roof was actually a man-eating, great white shark!

We did, after all, live about 10-15 miles from Lake Michigan, and the Great Lakes are connected to the St. Lawrence River, which is connected to the Atlantic Ocean where sharks live.

And I'm sure you're thinking, "Salt water/fresh water," but you taught me that things evolved, so it was perfectly feasible in my mind that salt water sharks adapted to fresh water and then adapted like walking catfish--with the ability to move on land--all so they could descent on 134 E. Grove Street and devour me before zombies, ghosts, and the sump pump monster got me.

See what hell you wrought, allowing Granny to take me to Florida when I was five?! :)

Mole Sharks.

cgronlund May 16 2007, 11:57:51 UTC

Ya know, we did have moles up north...

Nothingn scarier than seeing a dorsal fin coming out of the ground in your backyard, man!

Interesting idea... curtishart May 16 2007, 00:23:21 UTC

27. Podcast HCWWPD

Hey, you ought to do it as a radio drama. You know, kinda like the Star Wars radio drama and Hitchhiker's Guide. You be the narrator and have others read other parts and such. That'd be a hoot to put together.

Re: Interesting idea... cgronlund May 16 2007, 00:35:36 UTC

I've considered it, but some of the people I've asked to read have strange schedules, and that's a bit more production than I'm able to handle ( ... )

Re: Interesting idea... curtishart May 16 2007, 00:42:48 UTC

It'd be tough but maybe even break the parts out and record separately and edit (sort of like how they do animation already)

Just throwing ideas out there...stirring the pot :)

Re: Interesting idea... cgronlund May 16 2007, 00:55:13 UTC

Oh, it's definitely a great idea; after all, we both thought of it and we're like idiot savants, or something ;)

It's the way I'd love doing it, and as long as everybody recorded together so all the levels were matched, it would be a blast.

Oh, and I found this for you:

Sort of a NaMaRiMoFaSoLaTiDo for screen plays.

cgronlund May 16 2007, 00:58:49 UTC

Hey, that's cool...I have a couple screeplay ideas that just sit.

But...

Must not change focus...

But...

It's only a month :)
