Hey Corinne,
Ha ha! Yes, Bracken the Kangaroo was an experience I’ll never forget (even if all he tried to do was hump me or anything I owned that I foolishly left outside)!

Whenever I read someone else’s list I want to add and add and add to mine! I love all the things you’ve done, but I’m especially jealous of the pet kangaroo. I think every child (big and small) wants to snuggle a kangaroo!

Hi Dick,
Yes my namesake Nora Dunn (or rather, I guess I’m her namesake since I’m younger). She’s a famous actress and director, one borne of the early SNL days.
And sadly, IMDB lists her – the other Nora Dunn! – instead of me as that part. That girl in the green dress – that’s me, through and through!

Hi Nora ,

Just had to look op ‘The Prize winner ‘on IMDB.com as a fully paid-up film junky. Did you know there was another Nora Dunn in that movie as a ‘girl group member ?! She is American though and ‘often plays doctors’?!’ Includes a picture , if you want to know what ‘you’ look like !

Cheers,
Dick

Hi Dick!
Actually I have my PADI licence and have scuba dived and done the fishy thing (I was more cold than thrilled, though I’ll admit it felt like another planet); and yes I’ve also skiied in all kinds of adverse weather conditions – again I was more uncomfortably cold than thrilled!
(This is why I live near the equator now!)

Gliding I’ve also done (I should probably add that to my list); both hang gliding, and I also did a skydive off a powered parachute glider. Only thing is I didn’t assemble either! 🙂

The Nile experience sounds awesome, and let’s see who makes it to the Northern lights first!

Hey Kellie!
I was in a movie called “Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio” with Julianne Moore and Woody Harrelson. I’m a recurring theme through about 10 minutes in the middle of the movie – the “girl in the green dress”; you won’t miss me! 🙂

I’m a little bit dissapointed in you ! Don’t tell me you haven’t suba dived (with oxygen bottles)
and let a school of fish eat out of you hand ?! It’ll blow everything away.And espcially for somebody from Canada … have you skied in a whiteout ?(it occurs when there is a heavy fog and you can’t seperate the snow from the air ) it feels like free-falling through the air and is murder on your back. Or skieing in a blizzard at dusk..

You should also try gliding after you have assembled the glider yourself of course…. or travel down the Nile in an old fashioned Egyptian sailing boat with only the wind to help you along . Or row the damn thing when there is none.

I’ll race you to the Northern lights though…

Cheers,
Dick

I recently completed my AtoZ of travel bucket list inspiration full of things I’ve done and those still on my list – it was a great reflective exercise, so I enjoyed reading yours very much!

Now…I want to know more about this Hollywood citing you’ve done! 🙂
