Before You Die

I came across this small piece of wisdom this morning while reading in the bathroom. It comes from a delightful book called "It's Not Rocket Science and Other Irritating Modern Cliches" I think it adds nicely to vision of this blog,

"All of a sudden people are writing articles and books about things you must 'do before you die': 'A Hundred Books You Must Read Before You Die', 'A 1,001 Places You Must Visit Before You Die', '500 Beers You Must Drink.....', etc. You can hardly do any of these things after you die can you? And, if you tried to read all these books, visit all these places, drink all these beers and so forth in such a hurry you might just die because of it."
