Paying a Monday morning visit to the variety store...

Almost empty

I know I’m late to the game, here, but I finally had an opportunity to see Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman’s tag-team effort in “The Bucket List” over the weekend.

Seeing the flick got me thinking (a rare happening anymore, I know), with lengthy sabbatical coming after this week (three weeks paid, one week unpaid), what is my “bucket list?”

So, without further ado, and with apologies in advance to Nicholson and Freeman, here goes nothing (and it pretty much is):

n Go to Cedar Point.

n Taste lobster.

n Have a margarita.

n Have a cup of coffee.

n Return to the golf course once to use the new clubs I bought two years ago for the first time.

n Go scuba diving.

n Go sky diving.

I might be the only Ohio resident to have never been to Cedar Point.

I’m not much of a seafood guy, but I’ve heard so much about how good lobster is, I figure I might as well sample it.
