I wanna own an old hearse....
oh wait, i already do!!!

Couple nice cars in the drive and a weekend road track warrior, nice house, great wife. I'm not asking for the world. Am I?

LMAO @ Newman.

Has SomeOne Been Watching Fight Club??? MwaHaHaHa...Well For Me It Would Have To Be Freefall From A Very High Altitude... Without A Chute...

"I want to be in two places at once, I want to be married in the same church my mother was married in."
A Walk to Remember, my fiance watches that movie every time it comes on HBO. Which reminds me, I want to find someone to love and cherish and who will do the same. I did what I wanted.

I want to drive the autobahn....and drive across the country.

Two things:


1. Go on a driving tour of the US
2. Learn to fly a Cessna

I want to travel around Europe and drive cross country. Oh and maybe win the lottery so I can do those things.

I'm doing well so far; I have an awesome wife and 2 happy and healthy kids.

On the frivolous side though; the following are some things I'd like to do:

Drive a 962C on a racetrack (Spa, La Sarthe or Nurburgring).

In my garage, build a ridiculous lightweight 911 with enough torque to embarrass the hell out the 500 CI monsters I see on Woodward Ave. all summer long. A completely stripped 964 turbo look shell. A 3.6 case converted to 3.8 with PMO 50mm slide rails and twin spark; Mahle 10.5:1 pistons, etc.

Scuba dive in Fiji.

Climb 11c on rock and 5/IV on ice.

And the not so frivolous:

Get an MBA from Michigan State

1) Finish my Private Pilot (waited so long that I have to take the exam again and finish ground school)

2) Own a villa in Costa Rica and Spain or Italy (should have the one in Costa Rica done in 6 months; the other two? Let's just say I'm not holding my breath...)

3) Pick up Piano again and get damn good at it.

4) Enter the open class in racquetball IRT tournaments and get nationally ranked. "A" class is kicking my a$$ right now, so this one may be a pipe dream...

5) Help at least one person realize their full potential(atheletic, intellectually, spiritually, whatever) in life and have them do the same to someone else.

6) Convert BBorges to a conservative.

That's about it. I've little regrets and few other rampant desires about anything else in my life at this stage. If I get #6 done, I could die happy tomorrow...
