Things You Will Never Be Able to Do!

Here is a parial list of things I would like to do, but (unless miracles happen) I will never be able to accomplish:
-Dinner at the Hall of Mirrors, the Palace of Versailles, France
-Swim in the roman swimming pool, Hearst Castle, San Simeon, CA
-Travel to the South Pole
-Go to the bottom of the Marainas Trench (deepest spot in the oceans)
-Go to the bottom of the deepest gold mine (S. Africa)
-Travel at Mach 2 on the Concorde
Is there any way I might accomplish some of these?:dubious:

I second the Hearst Castle swim, although I want a shot at the indoor pool. VERY cool, and I’m not much for swimming. So if you figure that one out, give me a heads up, ok?
As for the rest, I think the South Ploe is now a tourist destination, much like Everest. Quite pricey, but do-able. And it’s never too late to change careers and become a gold miner!!

Give birth.

You can’t fly in Concorde anymore, but if you want to fly at Mach 2, you can do it in Russia.

The Elvis lip curl, on the left side. Right side, no problem. Left side, the King is dead.

Triathalon. Unbelievable that people can do that.

Unless I get really fit and flexible, I’ll never be able to pee my name in snow.

You should have someone else pee it for you. Right outside your home, just to freak out guests.

Funny, I can’t do that anymore myself. Coastal NC doesn’t get much snow, and when we do, it doesn’t last long enough for me to whip it out. ;):stuck_out_tongue:

When I lived in Indiana, however…

Oh come on, swimming in either pool is something you can quite easily do. You just have to risk going to jail for doing it. :stuck_out_tongue: So how badly do you want to fulfill this wish?

I’d like to pee my name in to the dust on the moon and then I shall become immortal.

If by South Pole you mean Antartica ITT has job postings for down there. Been thinking of applying myself. Still got several months left on this contract first.

Play major league baseball. Since I’m female, that was probably right out anyway, but now I’m too old regardless. :frowning:

Buy a new car.

Walk on the surface of Mars, or even the moon.

Be declared a child prodigy.
Sigh.

Well, this is possible, but I still doubt I’ll ever be able to go to a bar.

Juggle or use a pogo stick. I spent three years (Ages 9 - 12) trying to use that darn pogo stick. All my friends would come over, “Gee let me try,” then spend an hour jumping on the darn thing. I couldn’t even do it once.

As for juggling ever so often I get a book and try again. So far not luck…

Odd. My left is totally Elvis, while the right is dead as… well, I don’t want to say it.

Things that I Will Never Be Able to Do - any more - Walk into a club, in a sexy dress and stilettos, awash with pheromones, attracting men like moths to a flame, and dancing the night away :frowning: …and who knows what, later?:stuck_out_tongue:

(for a while there, I thought ‘crossing my legs’ might be something I’d never be able to do, having gotten a tad hefty. Luckily I lost weight and can now cross them. Small consolation, though, not being able to do that in a club.)

I will never be able to have more kids. At the time, I didn’t want any more, and now…I kind of wonder how different our family life would be with more members.
