I think those Secret Service guys can cross one of those things off their lists. I was thinking this might be a good time to talk about my Bucket List. I’ve always said that I’ve already done more things than any person should or could do; either by chance or just being in the right place at the right time or just because I was in the Marine Corps. https://timhon.wordpress.com/2011/05/10/12-things-i-learned-in-the-marine-corps-that-you-just-cant-learn-in-ordinary-life/ I’ve done the weird the bazaar and the crazy….and that’s just the women. https://timhon.wordpress.com/2011/05/06/bartender-18-salty-dogs-and-a-heineken-no-for-each-of-us/ I’ve traveled the world and seen and have done more things than you can imagine, but there’s still a lot of things I’ve not done that I could do.
