That one's just absurd.....Everyone knows the chicken on the way rumours are just a myth.

I made a bucket list when I was 20 (1992) and I completed it just this year at the age of 35. Since I'm certainly not ready to die, I guess it is time to make a new one. The one I completed:
(1) Be front row center for a Sarah McLachlan concert. (accomplished 1994)
(2) See my Devils win a Stanley Cup (on TV) (accomplished 1995, 2000, 2003)
(3) Find a job I love (accomplished 1997)
(4) See Stanley Cup banner dropped in Jersey (accomplished 2003)
(5) Buy a house with a pool (2007)
(6) See Leonard Cohen live in concert (July 2008)

I didn't think I'd finish off the list given Leonard's advanced age, but when he announced that he'd be doing a concert in Toronto, I had tickets lined up the moment they went on sale. (Yes, I was a 20 year old Leonard Cohen fan.... introduced to his music via "Pump up the Volume" with Christian Slater.)

I have a lengthy list which is very travel and dive focused. Many of the suggestions above are on my list too so I'll stick to other things. This is just a sampling of my list:

I have over 60 countries I want to visit on my list (29 down, 31 as of Feb)
Visit all 7 continents (5 down, 6 as of Feb)
Base Camp of Everest
African Safari (Feb)
Swim/Dive with Whale Sharks (done)
Swim/Dive with White Sharks (the is no such thing as a GREAT white shark)
Swim/Dive with Hammerheads
Swim/Dive with Manta Rays (done)
Swim/Dive with Dolphins (done)
Dive Chuuk Lagoon
See Vimy Ridge (done)
See Easter Island
Get under 200 lbs and stay there
Dive great barrier reef (done)
Have a photo published in a magazine
Exhibit my photos in a gallery

I noticed a number of people have Machu Picchu on their list and also volunteer or humanitarian work. I ran across an organization where you can do both at once: http://www.globeaware.org/Content/tr...eruprogram.php. Thought some of you might be interested.

Visit all continents
See the Earth from outer space
Have another child; watch both grow up and see them have children of their own
Visit all of the wonders of the world that I can
Buy the cottage my Grandma owned in Upstate NY where I spent many happy summers
