Have you made a bucket list?

When I was younger we watched Muchmusic, today's generation watches MTV. While I must admit some of the shows on MTV are oddly amusing, they are far from intellectually stimulating. However, I've become a fan of a show called The Buried Life. It follows four young guys who travel around the U.S. on a bus in an effort to complete all of the items on their Bucket List. (A list of things you want to do before you die.)
In each episode they meet random people on their travels and ask each of them "What do you want to do before you die?" The twist is,  every time they cross something off their bucket list - they in turn raise money and help a stranger fulfill their one wish. They raised money for plane tickets one episode, to take a girl to see her mother's grave for the first time.

Not the typical selfserving show you'd see on MTV. I hate to admit that more than once it's brought a tear to my eye. It has also inspired me to make my own Bucket List. Stay Tuned.

What do you want to do before you die?
