How to write a book

So as I am losing weight and getting a six-pack of abs, I figured this would be a good time to tackle another major bucket list item: writing a book.
I know it’s going to be a major challenge, especially since I’m journalist. Reporters tend to write short pieces, and get to the point quickly, whereas [...]

Working on a major bucket list item

So for the past week, I’ve been working on one of my major bucket list items. Two of them, actually.
6. Get my weight back to 180 pounds
55. Get a six-pack of abs.
I decided this last week. I weigh about 215 pounds as it is now. Not grossly overweight, but enough that it bothers me.
I’m not [...]

Five more additions on bucket list

I’m now up to 70 items on my bucket list. 
I’m still trying to get to 100 items, but it’s difficult. I’ve already completed some of them, and will be shooting down some others this summer for sure.
But in the meantime, here are the newest additions to the list and the reasoning behind it.
66. Learn to [...]

Summer Glau is my new hero

On my bucket list, #47 always seemed to be the easiest, but I couldn’t seem to get there.
See, ever since I started this blog last April, I wanted it to be well-viewed, but I knew I probably would never get to the same level as some other great blogs.
So I set what I thought was [...]

More things to do

So my list of 100 things to do (aka A Bucket List) is slowly building to 100.
There are three new additions to the list, but I’ve had to cross a couple off.
The three new things I want to do:
1) Learn to whistle: I already know how to whistle normally. But I want to be [...]

Two more added

So I’ve thought of another two more things I want to add to my list of things to do.
63. Own a really nice camera. One that can take sixteen pictures a second, or something like that.
64. Carry the Olympic torch. I might have a shot of this next year. I’ll let you know.

Googlewhacking done

On my list of things to do that could be complicated was number 53: Find a Googlewhack.
That is now crossed off my list.
First, an explanation of what a Googlewhack is. As many of you know, Google is a great tool to search. For example, searching for ryan coke will give you more than 2.8 million [...]

Stanley Cup ring for sale?

So I’m slowing building up to 100 things I want to do.
You can see the full list here. I’ve just added two more.
The first has to do with creating a new word, and either having it used it modern lexicon, have it printed somewhere (such as a major newspaper or something), or get it in [...]

Two more added

So I have a few new items to add to my list of things to do.
Some have already been completed. I’ve watched Firefly and Serenity, I’ve gone to the NHL draft, and I’m close to having the juggling thing mastered (look for some video on a future edition of my blog, once I can keep [...]

Another one done

Scratch another one off my list of things I’ve always wanted to do.
I’ve always been a big fan of Joss Whedon and his shows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the spinoff, Angel. So I’ve always wanted to watch his show Firefly, and the followup movie, Serenity. So on my list of things to do was [...]
