Here are five of mine:

1. Master the clarinet

2. Watch a sunset over the pyramids.

3. Own a house, preferably in Centretown or some other friendly little place (not Kanata or Barrhaven).

4. Publish many novels (currently working on one called The Passing of Arthur King -- Robertson davies meets Jack Kerouac meets J.R.R. Tolkien -- weird, I'm having fun with it).

5. Ride my own horse.

As with others, my five comes out of a longer list of things I want to do; in my case, before I'm forty.

Am I allowed to post others later?

1) Learn to play piano well

Whoa Babsy' date=' we have the same #1...and typed it at the same time. Cool! :D[/quote']

No what's even crazier.....if I could learn to play piano like anybody it'd be 'ersh or Kyle Hollingsworth!

Blair,

Just don't forget that it was your piano playing that indirectly (or directly) resulted in us being friends, so you aren't that bad at it. ;)

1. die

2. opium

3. find some like-minded musicians and make music

4. wander off and never come back

5. be a father

I'll presume that's not sequential (given even just 1 and 5, you'll at least want to start looking into sperm banks in the neighbourhood).

Hmmm...

1. Get back on stage (preferably somewhere that doesn't involve a minimum 1 hr. 20 drive), with soulful and insightful musicians (I think I've got that second part covered, actually).

2. Jam at full tilt with my girls.

3. Write something publishable that I wouldn't mind reading myself (and get it published).

4. Finally get a solid handle on the $%#$&* keyboard, and/or harmonica.

5. Go to a summer festival and not pass out early on the first night.

Fair enough! If my memory serves me well, it was a rousing rendition of the theme song from the sitcom "Cheers" at the Mansion party that drew you in!?!? (maybe I should put the "rousing rendition" in whatever colour represents sarcastic is!)

Dang! Honestly, I don't even remember. However, perhaps my state of mind made it more rousing :)

4 - be involved in making a movie

Hmmm... I've done that. I was in Cambodia, and I was approached and asked to play a part in a movie, simply because I was a white guy. Funny thing is, I have no idea what the movie was called, or even what it was about. I think my character's name was "Steve" though.

Sweet. Did you have a speaking role?

-Steve

Yup.

I made small talk with the lead character, and commented on the extreme hotness of the girl he was with. To be honest, the scene seemed kind of pointless. I'm still not sure why they needed a white guy to play my role - I was on camera for about three minutes and nothing that I said or did lent itself to any plot development. It was fun, though.

Although I *do* recall being a little concerned as the film crew drove me to a rural mansion twenty minutes outside of Phnom Penh. It occured to me that perhaps I was being kidnapped. I also remember thinking that maybe I had been cast in a porno. Of course, maybe it *was* a porno... the dialogue was pretty terrible... but I wasn't cast for any of the good scenes if it was.
