The Crazy World of Bucket Lists

He Said Did I ever tell you about one of the items on my bucket list that I actually accomplished? I know you write about me being lazy, lethargic, non-caring, slow thinking, etc. One of my goals was to be in a movie. I did just that when I appeared in the movie CRAZY PEOPLE... Read More
