Yesterday Gary tagged me for the list of seven after publishing his own. Well, here's mine:
Seven things to do before I die:
1. Be world’s best daddy alive
2. Get a PhD and write a book
3. Run and finish the New York marathon
4. Play in a movie
5. Buy a round-the-world air ticket, a rucksack, and elope for a few years
6. Travel through space
7. Make the world a better place and become enlightened
Seven things I can’t do:
1. Visit the centre of a black hole
2. Turn into a fly and go eavesdropping on my neighbours
3. Be a celebrated male fashion model
4. Discover the final unifying theory of everything
5. Remember birthday dates
6. Become a Muslim fundamentalist
7. Stop acting like an idiot savant from time to time
Seven things that attract me to blogging:
1. improving my lousy English vocabulary
2. Meeting interesting people
3. Cold-shoulder non interesting people
4. Filling the last hour I had left a day
5. Learn on subjects I care for
6. Express my amateurish creative talent
7. Having fun
Seven things I say most often:
1. I think..
2. Why is that?
3. Can you give me an example?
4. ..hmm, sure..
5. To my opinion..
6. I guess you could see it like that but..
7. ..did I say that??

I like your taste in movies (esp. Star Trek and Lord of the Rings. Esp. Lord of the Rings!).
I think your English is progressing amazingly, to be honest!
does it have to be the things you've listed??
Hi DA
My 7 ups posted now.
Reading yours I would say there's a common thread to my interests ....by the way I love the opera by Faust and some of those books you read sound appealing.
How about a posting or 2 on them !
Hey Dimitri... I'm working on the tag listings.... I have to mull these things over a bit... but I promise it will be up at Fuzzy and Blue asap.
Hmmm, Pscho and the Dalai Lama in the same lists of 7. You're an interesting man! You consider 'make the world a better place and become enlightened' one thing - that's interesting too. Good plan!
I love the Star Trek movies. I will watch them over & over.
Thx Julian, that's very kind..
I suppose not Callooh, it's one big anarchy over here in blogsville :-)
It is nice to share interests indeed Lindsay. That's one of the great things of blogging. I will take up the posting on two books!
Great Tina, I am curious!!
The good and the evil united in one person as if it were the same Gary :-) I have to say they both appeal to me more than the part in the middle..
Startrek is my absolute no.1 Elizabeth. I am experiencing withdrawal symptoms as it is off the cable in Holland at the moment :-((
My list is complete, Dimitri... :)
