On March 6, 1995 @ 146am, at age 24, I made this list of 100 Things To Do Before I Die. Here is the list

Came across this list today in an old cigar box that has my nostalgic stuff in it. I run into it every couple of years. I made it right after finishing grad school and was working at a small TV station doing the weekend weather and making $7.93/hour (no lie). There are lots of Alaska items because I knew I was going to be living there a few months later. As you can see, I’ve gotten about one fifth of these done so far. Some simply will never be achievable, even if I want to do them. Others I now have no interest in ever doing. I think I could easily knock another 20 off the list. Maybe another 20 would be doable with some extraordinary effort. Pretty interesting to see what a 24yo me had on a list like this. Enjoy. p.s. Yes, I know Number 100 on the list is “Get to Heaven”, which is kind of hard to do before you die, unless, I suppose there is the rapture or something.
