Well, in my case, I did mean I was an extra in a movie production. Though it was a made-for-TV movie, and one that I never actually got around to seeing...

Things you’ve already done: bold.
Things you want to do: italicize. Things you haven’t done and don’t want to - leave in plain font. 1. started your own blog 2. slept under the stars 3. played in a band 4. visited Hawaii 5. watched a meteor shower 6. given more than you can afford to charity 7. been to Disneyland/world 8. climbed a mountain 9. held a praying mantis 10. sang a solo 11. bungee jumped 12. visited Paris 13. watched a lightning storm at sea 14. taught yourself an art from scratch 15. adopted a child 16. had food poisoning 17. walked to the top of the Statue of Liberty 18. grown your own vegetables 19. seen the Mona Lisa in France (Meh, the Musee D'Orsay is much more interesting than the Louvre. Seriously, check it out. It's in an old, beautiful train station that was not in use for long due to trains becoming too long shortly after it was openend. What's more, it has the regular and 3D sketches for many great sculptures, which are very interesting to compare to the final piece. Seriously, it's great.) 20. slept on an overnight train 21. had a pillow fight 22. hitch hiked 23. taken a sick day when you’re not ill 24. built a snow fort 25. held a lamb 26. gone skinny dipping (does doing this as a kid count?) 27. run a marathon 28. ridden a gondola in Venice (I was in Venice, though.) 29. seen a total eclipse (several, actually. Both solar and lunar.) 30. watched a sunrise or sunset 31. hit a home run 32. been on a cruise (It was a Nile cruise, so only a small one. Does that count?). 33. seen Niagara Falls in person 34. visited the birthplace of your ancestors (I kind of live there. I claim discrimination by this meme! It is aimed at US citizens apparently!) 35. seen an Amish community 36. taught yourself a new language 37. had enough money to be truly satisfied 38. seen the leaning tower of Pisa in person 39. gone rock climbing 40. seen Michelangelo’s David in person 41. sung karaoke 42. seen geyser erupt (I don't really think the fake geyser in Disneyworld counts...) 43. bought a stranger a meal in a restaurant 44. visited Africa 45. walked on a beach by moonlight (I've also walked through the dark snowy mountain forest after midnight. Boy, was that dark. I was glad I was not alone and we still sang to chase away the scaryness.) 46. been transported in an ambulance (Jumped down a wall in primary school, but got my jacket caught on the fence on top of it. As a result, I swung back against the wall - with my forehead hitting right agains the upper edge of it. 6 stitches in that one.) 47. had your portrait painted (well, drawn.) 48. gone deep sea fishing 49. seen the Sistene Chapel in person 50. been to the top of the Eiffel tower in Paris (I've been to about 1/3 or 1/2 the height. The queue to the elevator up was too long for us to wait, so we walked to the platforms that had stairs.) 51. gone scuba diving or snorkelling 52. kissed in the rain 53. played in the mud (I used to be known as the "Mud Monster" as a kid, because of that one time I really looked like one after playing in the mud.  )54. gone to a drive-in theatre 55. been in a movie 56. visited the Great Wall of China (Part of it, actually. It's not one large wall, but many shorter segments, and it never was different. Also, only parts of it are restored. and that's the one you usually see on TV or in pictures. I was at that piece of the wall, but I would have loved to see the non-restored, but we didn't have time, sadly.  )57. started a business 58. taken a martial arts class (I had a short introduction lesson to Capoeira, but I don't think that counts. I want to start Naginatado, though.) 59. visited Russia 60. served at a soup kitchen 61. sold girl scout cookies 62. gone whale watching 63. gotten flowers for no reason (The fact they were giving them out for really cheap prices because it was the end of the week and the shop was about to close is not a reason, I think.) 64. donated blood (I've been planning this for some time now, but something always got in between. One time I simply wasn't there, and the last time I was feeling queasy, and my mother said I shouldn't donate then, which I admit is probably right. She's the doctor in the family, so she should know - aside from that, it's also common sense.) 65. gone sky diving 66. visited a nazi concentration camp 67. bounced a cheque 68. flown in a helicopter[/i] 69. [i]saved a favorite childhood toy 70. visited the Lincoln Memorial 71. eaten caviar 72. pieced a quilt 73. stood in Times Square 74. toured the Everglades 75. been fired from a job 76. seen the changing of the guard in London 77. broken a bone 78. been on a speeding motorcycle 79. seen the Grand Canyon in person 80. published a book 81. visited the Vatican newspaper 82. bought a brand new car 83. walked in Jerusalem 84. had your picture in the paper 85. read the entire Bible 86. visited the White House 87. killed and prepared an animal for eating (If you count Blue mussels as animals. And if you do that, I have also eaten an aninmal alive, namely oysters.) 88. had chicken pox 89. saved someone’s life 90. sat on a jury 91. met someone famous (and ran around them in circles along with your chinese friend's kid in a silly attempt to pass the time waiting in the foyer until we all could finally go to our rooms. That was about four or five years ago, I think.) 92. joined a book club 93. lost a loved one 94. had a baby 95. seen the Alamo in person 96. swum in the great salt lake 97. been involved in a law suit 98. owned a cell phone 99. been stung by a bee
