And I've never been to Boston in the Fall.

Some of my favorite Monty Python inspired talking vegetables are the dudes from Veggie Tales. They tell Bible stories with a twist and sing silly songs. I promise, they're well worth the watch.

This is one of my favorites.




While laying awake far too early one morning this week, I began to think of things I have never done. Much like Larry, Pa Grape, and Mr.Lunt, I have never been to Boston in the fall. But I would love to go sometime.

Here is a short list of things I've never done:
  • I have never flown. Anywhere. On any type of air travel conveyance.
  • I have never been out of the country.
  • I have never been west of Saint Louis, MO, east of Washington, D.C., north of Detroit, or south of Orlando.
  • I have never broken a bone (not all of these are things I'd like to do).
  • I have never driven a tractor.
  • I have never worked in retail.
  • I have never watched a single Saw, Exorcist, Halloween, or Predator movie (and never intend to).
  • I have never had measles.
  • I have never met a celebrity.
  • I have never been skiing, water or snow.
  • I have never been ice skating.
  • I have never willingly ridden a fair/amusement park ride that goes in circles. I did ride the tilt-a-whirl once but it was completely against my will & I vomited an hour later.
  • I have never been tattooed.
  • I have never mowed an entire yard on my own.
  • I have never pulled a fish off a hook...but I can bait my own hook.
  • I have never been arrested.
  • I have never gotten a speeding ticket.
  • I have never served on a jury.
  • I have never purchased a computer.
  • I have never been house hunting.
  • I have never downloaded a song.
  • I have never bungee jumped.
  • I have never hitch hiked or picked up a hitch hiker (aren't you proud of me?).
  • I have never been to a High School Reunion.
  • I have never slept out under the stars.

Maybe next time I'll tell you some things I have done.

Ah, you've got me wondering what I haven't done. I never stop to think about what I haven't done, just what I'd like to do (at that moment, then it changes two days later). I love your list. You really must never break a bone. After spending the last 8 weeks in a walking cast, I don't recommend it.
