Well, what is it? What is at the very top of your priorities list, that must be done before it's too late?

I would like to design the "Unstoppable Police Chase Vehicle"... that is I want to create a vehicle that the police cant stop. Say Im diagnosed with terminal cancer at 70, I can pull it out of the garage and grab the attention of the police and get chased. Something that repels stop sticks, unable to be "pitted", bulletproof, RPG proof, long range fuel tank... basically immune to everything short of an F-16 dropping a bomb on it. Heck, if Im going to die Im doin it in style. I would be happy with a non stop 12 hour chase. It would be legendary.

Just so there is no confusion, Im not talking about mass destruction of public property... just a vehicle that cant be stopped so the only one harmed would be myself and the vehicle I was in.

Write a few books on subjects within my discipline and most importantly, try to teach as many people as possible to think outside the box and to accept others who are different from them.

Have you seen the video of the guy who stole a tank and the cops chased him?

I think I want to join Club 33. Eating off of golden silverware appeals to my sense of vanity.

Good question Mortal Wombat, I thought about this for a bit and to be honest it's not at the top of my priorities list now at age 23, but before I die I want to have children, give birth (preferably not in a hospital, a tub birth would be super cool), it just seems like a super brave thing to do.

I watched a documentary once about women who give birth at home using midwives and it was powerful, and it's how women have done it for hundreds of years. If at age 70 I can look back before I die and know I had the strength in me to do something like that, man, that'd be cool.

I read somewhere that the average number of heartbeats in a human life is about 2.8 billion. I want to see if I can live to be 110, and only have 1.9 billion beats, by getting my resting heart rate way down.

I've thought about this a lot.

One thing I would like to do is be in a field of work in which I feel that I am contributing to the well-being of others. I realize that just about any job out there can probably be put into the category of doing something for others, but I wanted just a little more. That's why I'm in a healthcare education program in which I'm working with sick and injured people every day. I enjoy it, though I'm not able to fully understand why.

Another thing I would really like to do is travel to overseas and not just learn about different cultures from reading, but experience them first hand.

And, if marijuana ever becomes legalized, I'll probably smoke some.

We hypothesized that there would be a positive association between marijuana use and lung cancer and that the association would be more positive with heavier use," he said. "What we found instead was no association at all, and even a suggestion of some protective effect."

So yeah, before I die, I want to contribute to working for the legalization of marijuana/cannabis

I was just going to say "reproduce", but Warrior says it much better. I have a secret desire to write something "significant", though I haven't the slightest idea what that might be.

Ha, yeah. Good question.

Well, the profession into which I'm going is very rigid regarding the enforcement of ethical standards. If I were to get caught using an illegal drug, it could jeopardize everything I've worked for up to this point.

But, hey. It's something to look forward to.

Now that is one of things I find particularly appealing about INTJ females. In general, I've noticed most seem to take parenting rather seriously.

Heh, I understand I think. My father was a cop. I think the law itself is unethical, but it will change someday. My mother actually grew a pot plant on the front porch before the "war on drugs" hysteria back in the late 70s (my memory recall extends all the way to crib memories that I've had confirmed), and my father made her hide it when one of his coworkers came over for dinner.
