    I have a to-do -list for my life, things I want to do or places I want to visit or events I want to see. One of them is Reno Air Race. And it seems to be that I'm missing it again. But someday...

    Do you have similar to-do lists? And what kind of things you want to do?

    Heh!
    You don't work for the same people I do by any chance?
    :lol:

    Aside fromm 'married, kids' and all that...

    1) visit Aberdeen (in America, not the Scottish port!)
    2) join a Medieval re-enactment group - preferrably as an 11th Century English thane (or maybe even a huscarl), but I'm open
    3) do a PhD on castle sieges in the British Isles
    4) attend a variety of airshows / AFW shows etc around the globe
    5) work in a museum, being the informed chap who seems to know everything...

    that will do for now!

    It appears you have not been informed of the fact that Amsterdam has no beautiful ladies. :D Oh, you didn't mention they had to be beautiful! :lol:

    I'm really going to go with Ricky's list, stupid as that may sound for a life's to do list. (Dude don't you know personal initiative? No sir!)

    Well, maybe I'll go for a different subject for the doctorate. And not join a medieval reenactment club.

    Nutcase. :D

    I wasn't going to say that but I will go along with it. :D No really, they're very hard to come by over here, go some place exotic and please never go to Amsterdam. It's a silly place. ;)

    Because you wrote them in an offensive manner.

    If you accidentally double-post I usually remove the second or third ones.

    I think you would know better than I would, on women, okay, fair enough. But Dutch ladies?! 8)

    Aside from my fairly uninformative previous post

    1) Develop a computer game. Always wanted to, but I suppose ambitions change as you grow up.
    2) Get into university. Do a PhD on something interesting if possible.
    3) Survive national service

    I mean it sounds stupid to say, "yeah, what he said" when it's about your dreams.

    It seems that I didn't provide you more than one entry in my to-do -list.
    Others:
    1. Visit some famous but isolated islands, like St. Helena, Ascension, Falklands, Bear island, Jan Meyen, Spitzbergen (I know some people who have been there, apparently they don't let you go out of the populated area without a rifle and proper training for that) etc.

    2. Visit several battleship museums.

    3. See live some (motor)sport events, like Indy 500, some dragracing (with TF cars, ofcourse), Monaco GP, summer olympics.

    4. Got myself a classic car, either Dodge Challenger or Shelby Cobra (latter is a bit unrealistic).

    Today I managed to make one "dream" come true (not listed above). Got myself full-sized USMC Ka-Bar with leather handle.
