Several years ago I actually started to make this list, aiming for 50 things. I can't remember most of them (and have completed a few of them), so I'll rhyme off the ones that immediately come to mind...

1. Finish my Masters
2. Live in at least 5 different cities/towns for more than 6 months (so far I'm on city #5)
3. Travel to at least 2 countries on each continent
4. Damn I can't remember any more....Oh, how about see The Bucket List



I liked it I reAlly like Mr. Nicholson & Mr. Freeman

Ahem...

Sorry to bust your list but Antarctica is the only country (if it is even considered a country) on the Antarctic continent. Unfortunately you will never be able to complete your list.

Your doomed to dwell in the Corner forever in it's purgatory like state.

I was going to say the same thing about Australia, but I guess New Guinea is considered the same continent.

Okay smart asses, you're not the first ones to point that stuff out. Probably won't make it to the Antarctic - or at least it's at the bottom of my list. I thought Australasia/Oceania is the continent, but I could be wrong on that one too.

It was part of Gondwana before the continents separated.

I think Australia is everything that shares the same continental shelf - which is Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea. New Zealand is considered to be part of the Asian continent.

Of course, it's somewhat retarded, because Europe and Asia are the same landmass. And if you go on the strict sense of plate tectonics, then India is its own continent, and parts of eastern Siberia would be part of North America.


So, for your bucket list, just travel a lot and go to Australia, New Guinea, New Zealand... and call it a day.

You can't do all that in one day.

You could. Might be expensive, and somewhat unrewarding.

Definitely New Zealand.

That is a great place to visit/live. It makes me think of what this country was like back in the 50's:
Cleaner, healthier, vibrant and somewhat free of STD's...
