The Great NS Bucket List

Postby Antilon » Tue Jul 07, 2009 8:46 pm

Making a bucket list by ones self or with another person doesn't seem that exciting to me, so let's go above and beyond. How about everyone post some things that have to be done before we depart our beloved Earth? It doesn't matter if you did the activity already, but try to shoot for something memorable and unique. No one here has to commit, of course, but I will personally try to complete the list.

Organize and participate in a giant water-fight (ballons, super-soakers, trap slip-and-slides, the works) involving no less than 25 people.

A couple pieces of information I discovered the other week...

1. You can take a tourist helicopter flight around HK harbour, it costs something ridiculous like US$300 per person for 50 minutes but... if you take an introductory helicopter flying lesson, 4 people get to fly for 15 minutes each for an entry fee of $150 total, meaning we each pay $37.50 and we get to fly the damn thing, the whole flight is over an hour given take-off and landing,

Sorted!

Also, most taxis are owned by the government here, so you can actually hire one even though you don't have a license but you are not supposed to pick up passengers. To hire a normal car from a car-hire company it's about $100, hiring a taxi through the government is $40 but you get to drive a taxi around all day, like Batman,

Sweet!

These are on my list, helicopter is this weekend, taxi requires an occasion,

Osvikken, has been apprehended by US security forces after they discovered a trail of terrorist plots and plans in his bedroom.
It appears Mr Osvikken, sent a text message to Israeli brides, which happen to be an undercover terrorist organisation under covert Surveillance.
After he twigged on to his governments activities in the Nevada desert he crossed country, where Israeli merceneries shot down an FBI chopper homing in on his position. After he ducked down into a secret research facility under the guise of to name "painters and Decorators Inc", he discovered purely by accident the Toaster gun, a weapon completely un-useable yet his actions distracted officers hunting the Israeli group. Osvikken then found a small petri dish which seemed to be glowing green and had little lifeforms on it, he called it, Toaster nation. Osvikken later regrouped with the terrorist group and declared war on the US government via an internet video.
Here is the clip he sent live.
The FBI are appealing to any witnesses who can identify the man, he has a toaster welded on a gun, with a petri dish and was working for a painters and decorators company, so it's likely he'l skip to the next company and link up with other terrorist cells.

That was the Mad hatters news, brought to you by me....The pope of raptor jesus and the hope that all dinosaurs and humans will one day live in harmony in the future.

Hmmm... is this supposed to be a collective list? As in if someone posts it and someone else has done it, we check it off?

If so, we can check off being on TV in a foreign country and participating in a mock medieval battle, as I've done both several times. :D
