THEN AGAIN, IF IT WERE EVER THAT IMPORTANT, I'D HAVE DONE IT ALREADY

I'm composing a bucket list.

I began with ten items.  However, after a weekend of (increasingly unfamiliar) rational reflection, the list has been whittled down to three.

The other seven, it turns out, were seductively veiled death wishes.

For example, I realize now that # 5 -- building a cobra-powered time machine -- might contain certain design flaws.  Ditto # 8: having tea with Kim Jong il and beating his wrinkled ass at chess.

#3 still has possibilities... I mean, it's not inconceivable that I might discover the Holy Grail while on holiday in the Galapagos.

Yeah.  Let's keep that one at the top of the list.

You're really going to the Galapagos? Give my regards to the turtles if you are.

Man, I would love to go there. But it's such a fragile place. The fewer people mucking about the islands in their touristy shirtsleeves the better.

Fuck. I've just had to strike Madagascar off the list, too.
