Am I back in that car with Tyler Durden, careening towards oncoming traffic?

Okay, okay. Finish writing my book. And... And have it be reasonably successful (in a cult sort of way).

There's more than one thing on my bucket list, but the thing that's been there the longest is:

Play in a dixieland band.


Eliminate fossil fuel subsidies. (If you're not on the edge, you're taking up too much room.)

Don't restrict yourself to current. But ever since the 80s and MTV, rock stars have to be good looking. Young and sexy, no matter what gender they are. I've seen photos of The Bear, and I don't think he counts on the young part.
