Bucket with a Hole in it

You must have seen them: 100 Things to Do Before you Die, 100 Places You Must Go Before Passing, 100 Foods to Tickle your Innards and 100 Movies Before You Croak. These lists are everywhere.

But do they ever check your age? No, these are lists for a long lifetime and my lifetime is largely spent and even worse, mostly in Baltimore, Oakland and other such places. I do not have that many years left. If I tried half the hundred things the to-do guy wants, I would be way past dead. In truth, I probably have only a dozen or so neat to-do things left in me. And I do not want to go anyplace without good toilets, showers and hot breakfasts with coffee.

But some of those strange places are calling to me right now, Tahiti, Taiwan, and Toledo. And some new exotic foods would be great for a younger stomach.

What to do?

Solution. I wrote an iphone app to help. Bucket with a Hole. It not only has a checklist for the things to do in this life, but has one for your next life too. You no longer can eat hot food--slide those chiles with your finger across the screen to the next you, the one you will be when you get reborn. Ditto for jumping off some bridge with a big rubber band wrapped around your ankles.

You can make your full bucket plus list right now.

Remember how it took fifty years or so to figure out which end was up in this life. In the next life, just check your list. You will have a whole lifetime to work through it. What could be easier?

And as a bonus, we throw in a third life list for free. Some stuff like going to another planet may have to wait a long time. We plan on keeping our company going forever. That is why we ask a little more for it than Skype, email or some of those other throw away apps.

Now you ask, how do I figure out who I was when I get to my next life. This is where we got the patent, so hang on. After years of research we found that people name their dog the same in life after life. That is why I met Rex the dog in Mexico and Fifi in China. Their owners are born again Americans. You just check your dog 's name on our site and it hands you your old life's bucket-plus list. Of course we recommend that you name your dog with something that maybe has a few caps and special characters in it, just to keep things straight.

So get listing. Your next life is awaiting.
