Before I die I want to …

Nov 3, 2008 Author: stephen chip | Filed under: Funny, Interesting

The basic premise at “before I die I want to.org” is to say exactly what it is you want to do before you die. Here are just three examples of the many postings:


I hope you’re still alive when they carry you out.

Sounds to me like you’re ready to go at any moment

We have no clue who you are. You’re a total mystery. Since YOU know who you are, WHAM, you just solved your first mystery!

Here are the official rules:

To submit your own “Before I die I want to…” Polaroid to this project,
please follow these steps:

1. Think about what you want to do before you die.

2. Have someone take a Polaroid photo of you AS you are stating what it is you want to do before you die.

3. In your own handwriting in the large white area of the Polaroid under the photo, write down with a BLACK sharpie marker what you just said you want to do before you die, starting with the words “Before I die I want to…”

Lookybook.com is a cool site which allows parents flip through kid’s books before buying them. You get to see the whole book showcased in a clever page turning flash app. Other sites like Amazon allow you to preview the first couple of pages but that’s about it.

Skateboards + blue suits = one insane ride!

These guys are crazy! What’s crazier? Skating down a incline or shooting video while skating down an incline. Passing the camera back and forth was very cool and risky. As it turns out, they’re both pretty decent shooters… And you gotta love the blue suits!

Watch closely at the beginning of the video –  you can see a Beatles and Che Guevara poster on the wall. Influences I guess…

Here’s a fantastic feat pulled off by another wanna be joker. Another wanna be Joker? Are there any other wanna be Jokers? Here’s the rest of the story:
 

CENTREVILLE, Mich. – A man accused of trying to steal a large Batman movie poster from a cinema lobby while dressed as the Joker has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of malicious destruction of property.

Twenty-year-old Spencer Taylor entered the plea Wednesday in St. Joseph County District Court.

A judge ordered him to serve one day in jail, perform 16 hours of community service and pay $685 in fines.

Charges of attempted larceny in a building and using a mask to conceal his identity during the commission of a crime were dismissed as part of Taylor’s plea agreement.

Three Rivers police say he was wearing a purple suit, green wig and face paint when they arrested him on July 27.

Wow! I’m so impressed. I can’t wait until you dress up as the Hulk and run around terrorizing towns folk with your purple shorts. Ah yes. That will be a glorious day.
