Half-Bucket List

In 2013 I will turn 40.  Unless I die first, in which case I will not turn 40.

I think I'd rather turn 40.

Anyway, since turning 40 puts you in "mid-life" I thought I would start working on a list of things I would like to do before the end of my fortieth year.  For those of you who don't like fractions, let me explain.

My life is statistically half over, I am working on a half-bucket list. I would like this list to include things to do before the end of 2013. 40 years, 40 things, half a life, half a bucket.

So, I thought I'd ask friends and loved-ones to help me populate the list. I get final veto authority, but YOU get a souvenir or memento if your suggestion makes the list and I actually do that thing.

So fire away, brave souls. I'll be your huckleberry.

Visit the list here. (http://scottbarger.blogspot.com/p/the-list.html)

Can't do that, since there is nothing on my list at all yet. Wait, if there is nothing on my list that means I have to do nothing to complete the other half of my list, so...check! Got that done.

Buy an iPhone since it is the most expensive brand of phone out there and thieves know that. That's why a lot of iPhones are being robbed. It would be a wise choice from the time you bought one to get an iPhone insurance to secure future financial damage.

The Moabites, meanwhile, founded their capital city as Kir of Moab, which records indicate was on the site of present-day Karak. Cheap Jordan Shoes,rrhc kingdom was south of Ammon and stretched from the Dead Sea and the southern section of the Jordan River across often mountainous terrain to the Arabian Desert. Mount Nebo, famous according to Jewish and Christian thinking as being the burial place of the Hebrew prophet Moses, lay in the kingdoms territory.

Although little is really known about the Moabites, with only biblical stories and archaeological remains giving a clue to their lifestyle, it is considered accurate that they shared common descent with their Israelite neighbours through the line of Terah, Jordans Shoes,a biblical character from the Book of Genesis. Moab is believed to have had a period of Israeli rule, interspersed with times of independence, and out of the three kingdoms, Ammon, Moab and Edom, ranked as probably the richest through trading of its natural limestone and salt from the Dead Sea resources.

Edom, the other major kingdom to have been founded around the start of the Iron Age, lay south of Moab. The Edomites, too, traded in their natural resources that probably included copper. It brought wealth to this strategic kingdom on the main trade caravan route from Egypt. Bozrah was its capital city. jordan releases,It is mentioned several times in the Hebrew Bible, including its destruction in Amos 1:12. The remains of Bozrah can be found at Bosayra.a few kilometres from the city of Tafila.
