Everything on this list is approved for the 50 plus crowd, providing they have a doctor's note...

My note says do everything once and if it fun try to do it again. I never argue with notes. Dennis:D

What's wrong with "fish tanks"?

My 75 gallon "fish tank". Yes, all the plants are real. 220 watts of light, pressurized C02 (10lb tank), and home made ferts make it happen. Look easy? Try it sometime!

Xenentodon Cancilla "Gars". These critters eat more shrimp than I do.

Responses:

2. Are you kidding? I'm a married man now, fer Pete's sake! Without shots
I'll be insane by my second anniversary...

7. Haven't done this one in a while...although I suppose I might if asked. It's the drawback to owning a fullsize 4-dr AND a SUV...

13. Does this include camo-pac face paint for woodland/jungle maneuvers? Just thought I'd ask...

33. This 'un doesn't apply to me personally...but I think it'd be scary to the American public to know---fantasy football is big business in the DoD.

40. I'z a big fan of "Learning to Fly" and Roger Waters' independent effort "What God Wants". Otherwise I'm inclined to agree...

43. Oh no...what? I can't enjoy "Gone in 60 Seconds"? Or "Con Air"? Or "The Rock"? Sorry, but I think I fail this criteria...

And if you haven't guessed...I'm kidding. :coolman: Although I would like to hear back on the camo-pac thing...

This is all Esquire magazine's ideas.

And I agree with you on Roger Waters.

What's wrong with "fish tanks"? My 75 gallon "fish tank"...
There's nothing wrong with fish tanks. You don't actually let these "lists" dictate who you are and what you want to do, do you? Number 50 on that list should be "making lists of what you think other people shouldn't do"

Here are two more winners:

7. Help friends move.
8. Ask friends to help you move.

Yes, because helping anything is so totally not manly. :down: Wiping before you poop makes more sense than this list.

Agreed! Hey, I just used it as a good excuse to post pics of my tanks...LOL! (oops, another internet acronym I shouldn't be using!). Regardless of this list, I'm still planning on getting a 225 gallon tank and a spawning pair of Cuban Gars. PM's sent! LMAO! (oops, did it again!).
