Somewhere out there (I forgot where exactly), I read about having goals in life. Not just your typical goals, like to finish school, get a good job, retire by age 30. Nothing like that... More like, the things you want to achieve or do before you die, such as visiting the 8 Wonders of The Ancient World, or something to that effect.
So now, I'm finally doing my own. Maybe I should do a hundred... Hmmm... Let's see if I can finish that in an hour... Hehehe.

Elaine, goals are good and accomplishing them is great!
Serveral years ago there was actually a television program on a cable channel titled something like "100 Things to do in a Life". It was very similiar to your list. After watching it my wife and I made our individual list of 100 things each. When we compared our list we had more than 50% in common. We then merged our list and have been marking them off 1 by 1. I hope you are soon marking yours off 1 by 1.
I do however have a little bad news for you. #50 Starbucks is not a franchise. If you'd like to learn more about franchising you can visit fransynergy.com or their blog at Synergistic Thoughts.
Again best of luck in deleteing and adding to your list!
