- have kids
- get to ~50k a year in my job and then not bother my arse working as hard any more
- spend some time in America
- do a mad event for charity - not sure what - and raise loads
- I would never sky dive but maybe a bungee jump
- run marathon

Build a house (site already planned - 7-10 years)
Get over fear of commitment!!!! (God knows when)
Do more travelling (South America definately)
Be involved in a major charity event in 2010 that would become an annual thing (started planning)
Go to Cheltenham this/next year
Get through the recession intact

Ed McMahon to POG, "You are correct sir"
I have entered a contest to sing at the Cubs game (fingers crossed). I attempted the steak once before, didn't finish in an hour was driving 18 hours a day for three days when I got there so my heart/stomach was not into it- next time I will fly into Dallas then spend a nite in Amarillo to prepare. Need to save 1200 for the fighter jet ride, need to save roughly 9-15,000 for the bike trip, need to save 125-300,000 for the pub, need to save 250-450,000 for the warm water retreat, need 10,000 to enter WSOP and beat out roughly 9,000 other people and hope Phil Helmuth makes the final table with me. Would need to donate about 1 million to charity to set up the golf foursome. Announcing the Bears game would be the tough one, maybe donate 1 million to a charity the NFL supports. Revise the 1 year in Alaska to 1 month(3500) and find a 350 pound gold nugget (gold at 900 an oz) valued at $5,040,000 and that would cover everything , this is so simple :D

ah so maybe you don't have a fear just a sixth sense
i would like to....
1= win an all ireland medal in scor
2= do missionary work for about a yr
3= cycle across Vietnam
4= find an ideal man for me!
4= have a wedding day.......
5= go to austrailia and do a skydive and bungee
6= be at a world cup final where ireland wins!
7= see tyrone have a bigger tally of all irelands then kerry!
Saw the Club win a Senior All Ireland and that was top of the list, already did the jumping out of the plane also. So, Mayo to win Sam would be the one big thing I'd love to see happening in my lifetime.
If we're going into unlikely dreams, well Mayo to win Sam with me as Manager would be a nice thing to do.
Bucket list: To be extremely thankful everyday for what I have been gifted :)

Jaysis, what age do you plan on living to?
I'd settle for beating Down and Cavan at the moment :P
In no particular order
1. Release an album, working on it in my spare time these days
2. Go to the Superbowl
3. See Meath win a few more A-I's
4. Coach Meath to an A-I victory (wont do it as a player anyway)
5. Own an emission free car
6. Climb Carrauntoohil
7. Restablish the Kingdom of Míde/Meath
8. See the 1st televised Shamrock Bowl on RTE, played to a sell out crowd in moderately sized stadium
Is it sad that I have nothing that immediately springs to mind? I'm just happy with life at the minute everything seems to be going well (touch wood).
I have no aspirations to bungee jump, or swim with sharks or go to Oz. People often say "you have to to this, you have to do that, you have to see Oz, bla bla bla". I'm happy with my life in Ireland so I'm sticking with it.
(Plus if I left now I'd never get a job when I returned) :D
Cant think of any major ones at the moment
Jump out of plane
See Utd at a CL final
Keep my job during the recession
Stay alive long enough to see full back junior grow up
See Armagh win Sam once more (just once f**king more for the love of Christ)
Not crave a cigarette
See the club win a Senior Championship
heres my provisional list, me and her agreed to laminate it put it away and take it out in a lock o years;
1. Ride the California Coast on Harley
2. Visit 7 Ancient/Medieval/Modern Wonders of The World
3. Not to work under someone for the rest of my life
4. To live in a hot place beside the sea for a substantial period (eg San Diego/Australia)
5. To Scuba Dive
6. Learn how to surf
7. To travel the course of the Tour de France
8. To go to the golf Masters
9. To go to a World Cup Final
10. To go to a Champions League Final
11. To go to Cheltenham
12. To go to Ireland v England (Six Nations)
14. To see Celtic at Ibrox
15. To Bungee Jump
16. To Sky Dive
17. To run a marathon
18. To go to Superbowl
19. To speak a foreign language fluently
20. To stay in ice hotel
All doable but need to make the effort, i think if i could look back from my death bed and said i had done all the above i would be a happy man!

I did 3 things last year that would be on a lot of peoples wishlists, got married, went to Thailand on honeymoon( I know a lot of you would want to go for a different reason but it was an amazing experience nonetheless - my wife's not a prude) and jumped out of a plane in July for charity(with a parachute from 13000feet)! I'd like to do too many things to mention but my main one is probably to see much more of the world...I need to win the lottery first!
My list is a short one- only one item on my list.
Sooner or later, we all gotta go and I have come very close to doing just that a number of times.
Now, if I have my way, when it's time to pass on to greater things, I'd like to be shot.....
As long as it's on my 110th birthday, and the trigger is pulled by a jealous husband. ;D

it has to be one of the most underwhelming things i have ever done, not sure what i was expecting but it done nothing for me. You are put into a cage hanging off the side of the boat and they fire big chunks of bait for the shark to nibble on. Maybe if there was no cage it might have been more exciting!!

The doctor did recommend that as an alternative, but I haven't found anywhere that has it. As for the Superman suit..... not sure it's me.
I would like to write a book.
I have had a couple of ideas over last few years. However, much like most of my posts on internet forums, I am not too sure if these ideas would be of interest to others.

I would like to write a book.
I have had a couple of ideas over last few years. However, much like most of my posts on internet forums, I am not too sure if these ideas would be of interest to others.
Also have always wanted to write a book - started one a few months back - hope its worth reading when its finished.

Very good tyrone girl. What topic is in on. Are you going to give this forum a sneek peak at it? Give us the first few pages.
Are you wise? Give this forum a sneak peek at it? Id rather run naked down the motorway. People on here without naming names delight in taking the piss out of others and i certainly aint having anyone bringing the book down before i have it finished or telling me its shyte.

I'm sure people on here are not that harsh. What is it about?
You can always email a copy. I will give my honest opinion.
I wouldn't mind a look at it either! Always thought I could write a book but it would take an awful lot of thought and planning! Whats the general storyline TG? Not taking the piss!
Wouldnt be like you
I know :P
Seriously though, whats the theme?
I would image most people who post to internet forums would see themselves as being able to write a book. Everyone has their own ideas regarding topics that is of interest to them but it would be a challenge to come up with a topic that others would be interested in.
tyrone girl whats your theme share and share a like. I actually starting writing one some time back, a superhero children's book. Never went back to it thou.
Hard to pinpoint a theme without going into what the general gist of the book is going to be and im not doing that. It will more than probably be dung anyway so il come down to earth with a bang when i finish it and someone edits it or watever they do. Still , always wanted to do one and its one thing im well capable of doing i think so why not .
No point in keeping it to yourself, you have me intrigued now!
Give us the general storyline!

Agree with you here tyrone girl if your capable of writing it then why the hell not.
You have to give us something though tyrone girl as I am intrigued now. Forget Mickey Harte's book or Brian Cody's I want tyrone girl's.
Have you come up with a title yet.

Girl falls in love with boy.
Boy gives girl a good rogering.
Girl falls in love with girl.
Girl becomes pregnant.
Baby has two mammies.
Baby gets bullied for having two mammies (once it starst school)
Baby falls in love with boy.
Boy rogers first mammy.
Mammy rogers baby.
Mammy falls in love with boy.
Roger boys girl.
Girl rogers girl.
Roger roger roger.

Cheers redhugh - one of these things i always talked and thought about for years and never bothered myself getting of my arse to do it - figured its now or never - went to school for years and uni for years and sitting in a crap job i could have done years ago so decided got to have a bit of ambition somewhere. That was the main motivation for doing it

WOW its fun learning about your book tyrone girl.
Fair play to you anyway, if she can do it so can I. Next Christmas our books will go head to head tyrone girl.
:D :D Deal -
Though u may lose the childrens superhero theme as we be targeting diff markets then :P
Seriously though i actually thought about a childrens book as well - was sort of in 2 minds as to what i would go with first - wish in a way id have done a kids book first or attempted it first. Though if anything comes of this one it will be next avenue il explore.

STAY THE FECK OUT OF MY MARKET
At least let us know what genre you are going for.
What would be your target audience?
Hmm theres one , 16 and up - mostly females id say - its all at a very very early stage though - may go nowhere - il eventually finish it and then see where i go from there.

Fiction or non fiction?
So basically its going to be a book about adolescent girls growing up and encountering every day real live problems like boys, money, part time jobs, periods and vampires (the way the whole market is going at the moment).
I knew it! So predictable TG :D
Ah come on give us the general theme of it. Dont want the ending just what its about. Drugs? Football? Babysitters? Just to give us a small insight!
Nope isnt gona be like that. Its fiction - couldnt see how id write a factual book - what would i write it on. Though i hate reading fiction books - would only read real life books
Drink plays a big part in it - thats all im saying about it .
College Girls Go Wild in Space 2130?
Space fiction no?
I dont like fiction :( sorry TG.
Just not my cup of tea, but good luck with it!
I wouldnt read fiction myself - and lots of bits of it are true in different senses if that makes sense but the book in general is suposed to be a fiction book.

It's a story about a girl who finds love, then finds out that her love is in love with another woman called 'Mark'. It's a very sad story.
Hence the reason was reluctant to say anything on this thread cos of pricks like yourself - go take the feckin piss out of someone else - or if laughing at someone elses misfortunes makes you feel like a man then u go right ahead and continue.

Yikes, was only joking. Sorry if I offended you. Think I might have hit a raw nerve.
Hilarious joke and you knew full well u were hitting a raw nerve hence the reason u did it.
No book is fiction to the writer.
Harsh on maiden there - you have to admit most people enjoy laughing at others misfortunes, so you've just given license to take the piss even more...unless...is her name mark??
Good luck with the book though, and if you are going to have it previewed by a select audience, I'll be one of them sure. No better critic could you have :P

Sounds interesting. How did she find out?
Your another one - catch yourself on - if you have little to be at in your own life that laughing at that makes you feel good as i said to Maiden carry on with it.
Im off from this board , couldnt be bothered with tripe like this. Try to talk sensibly about something im doing and it turns into people taking the piss out of me for something that happened a long long time ago and still has me in bad form - nice boys you are.

Oh f*&k off. It was a joke. I didn't realise Tyrone_girl was sensitive about it. When she posted about it at the time there was about 20 pages of people taking the p1ss.

Surely that
this should be
these.
The rest of the post makes even less sense.
Yes it should be Saffron Sam2. Good spot thanks for that. You are very good at grammer and spelling. But could you do it in the cube?
