As Paul is too bashful to say, I will volunteer his innermost secrets :  ;D

He wants to :

1/  Wear a pink tutu, whilst
2/  Singing a Bob Dylan song (using a Minnie Riperton voice), all whilst
3/  Scoring a cup final hat trick at Wembley (assuming it ever re-opens)  ::)

I vote on Wembley not re-opening as being the LEAST likely of the above three events  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

-Go on a roadtrip across the country and visit every state - I've been to several, but only like 15 of 50.
-Learn to drive a stick shift (I don't have a car because my peripheral vision wasn't good enough to pass the DMV test...although I can drive an automatic just fine, manual is another story).
-Get better at cooking. I have the skills enough to do it, but am usually too impatient/hungry to prepare anything that takes awhile, lol.
-Become semifamous or at least successful with acting, comedy or some other kind of performing.
-Write a book of some kind.

One more that comes to mind at the moment (which I've only very recently made some steps in practicing) is singing. Despite my lifelong exposure/love of music, I never really thought of pursuing it at all, but a friend recommended that I go to one of the American Idol auditions. I almost went this past Summer (for next season), but it was too sudden and I didn't have the time to nail it down or plan my expenses, etc. I do plan on very possibly giving it a shot for the following season, though.

for a couple of Cole Porter nights at the town hall but once, just once I'd like to play in front of a large crowd not old enough
to be my grandparents.
Wow, it's awesome you did that Kevin.  I tip my cap to you. man, I'd be afraid my heart would stop  ;D  was it a total rush or what?  how was it the moments right before you jumped, was your heart pounding or were you very calm?

It was an absolute rush.

I wasn't as afraid as I thought I'd be, I don't think the attendant finished the word "jump" before I was out of the basket,
a perfect swan dive out, at least I thought so until I seen the video. The only bad thing was when I was being lowered,
I was spinning like a top, After I was unshackled and stood up I immediately walked sideways and fell on my ass.  ;D

I want to learn to tango and get a kick-ass gown to tango in.  It'll never happen though, hubby doesn't even remotely like to dance.

I was thinking that since Julie has left home for college and I have to interact more with Diane now, that maybe we could do something like that. neither of us are exceptional dancers but lessons would be a fun thing to do together, I'd like to learn Salsa, Tango, Fox Trot and I know she'd like to learn Swing. Hip-Hop would be cool too. maybe you can make your hubby an offer he can't refuse Patty and then he'll go with you to learn how to Tango!

Been trying to think of something to bribe him with.  ;D  Haven't come up with anything yet.  We'd look pretty funny dancing together anyways, there is over a foot difference in height between us.  I'd wear heels, but I am even more klutzy then normal when I'm 3 inches off the ground.  lol

I think you SHOULD take lessons.  That would be awesome.  Maybe I can live vicariously thru you and Lady Di's experience.  ;)

well, we've only discussed it very briefly but I admit I have some interest, but not sure if we'll follow thru on it or not but if we do, I'll let ya know.

oh c'mon Howard, you can chow down more than that. I'm thinking you could slam down 6-10 at least, if you were ravenous.


I'd be sick,couldn't do it.
