My bucket list

I find a lot of people talking about their bucket lists these days. A list of all the stuff they really want to do before they die which usually includes traveling to God forsaken Amazonian jungles, jumping off cliffs or aeroplanes, making uncomfortable conversation with ex GF/BFs & then convincing themselves that they've made up for past sins, driving a Ferrari etc etc. Here's mine(not that I don't wanna do any of the above):

  1. Wander into a Lawrence & Mayo store & ask for a jar of mayonnaise
  2. Defeat my friend Padma in at least one game of carrom, even if it means tying both her hands & blindfolding her.
  3. Find out the color of Karunanidhi's eyes.
  4. Figure out why parents are against the concept of young men & women living on the same planet.
  5. To be on friendly terms (to at least know the imp events going on in their life) with 1 more person than my friend Murali. He knows everyone!
  6. Meet the guy behind AbstruseGoose.
  7. Find out what hyper-emotional journo Arnab Goswami is smoking.
  8. Live long enough to see politicians being more expressive on TV & with the press in general. I mean, just imagine Dr Manmohan saying "We welcome the decision by the United States to lift controls on export of high technology items and technologies to India. Woo Hoo!!!!" or Obama(not Bush) saying "We will hunt him down & kick his Ass!!!"
  9. And the one last question I'd like to be answered before I pop is, what the hell happened before the Big Bang?

Not a bad list eh?

Pandering? Hadnt thought abt it that way. Maybe you are right.

Murali said...

Actually the previous one gave me the pandering impression...This one, not so much...This one's a good bucket list actually..

In keeping with the current season, lets label this post as kung-fu pandering ^_^
