You have one day to do anything. What would you do? (1 Viewer)

I always think of Jimmy V's speech. 

Time is very precious to me. I don’t know how much I have left, and I have some things that I would like to say. Hopefully, at the end, I will have said something that will be important to other people, too.

But, I can’t help it. Now I’m fighting cancer, everybody knows that. People ask me all the time about how you go through your life and how’s your day, and nothing is changed for me. As **** said, I’m a very emotional and passionate man. I can’t help it. That’s being the son of Rocco and Angelina Valvano. It comes with the territory. We hug, we kiss, we love.
When people say to me how do you get through life or each day, it’s the same thing.

To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. Number three is you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think and you cry, that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day.

I know we have been pavlov'd by ESPN into thinking we need to revere this speech, but this is horse ####.

Nobody wants to cry everyday.

Who wouldn't want to cry due to joy every day?

 
A round at pebble beach in the morning and then fly down to the rose bowl in pasadena and watch the US win the world Cup.   And hookers and blow throughout the day.

Don't be.

Sounds exhausting.

I'll be chilling on a beach surfing... you can waste time crying if you like.

Maybe spend your last day taking a reading comprehension course.

You could post it a fourth time if you like.

Feel free to cry all day on your day.

I'll be too busy enjoying myself to bother with crying.

Comprehension and counting aren't your strong suits. 

 
Me and two buddies went to Vegas about a decade ago.  We were on the hooker and cocaine joke.  I played in a 500 dollar tournament in the Bellagio and if I won we were going all hookers and cocaine.

Started the tournament at 12pm, chopped 1st place at 3am.  I went to bed an hour later, no hooker or cocaine when I could have bought much of both on a free roll.  Old guys suck.

After much though, I want to live Billy Murray's final day in Punxsutawney or go to the space station and back.  Probably the ground hog thing.

Man, you're awfully concerned with how I spend my last day. 

My other wish....that you're nowhere near me. You'd harsh my mellow.

I'm not really concerned.

I've posted over and over again I'm cool with you crying if you want... I just won't be. :shrug:

Oh, and if I had one day to do anything? I'd fly to the Vatican and get a tour of the super secret archives and talk to the historians about all of the freaky, weird stuff in history and see all the documents and artifacts they have squirelled away.

Can I admit something that has bothered me most of my life?

I have no idea what dogs have to do with dares.  I have always been confused by this.

I know it from the movie, I have heard it 100000 times.... I don't get it.

You're on a role!

 
Hang out with my mama in Vegas. As much as I enjoy spending time with my friends and GF--I still have the best and funnest times hanging out with my elderly mom.   I know I'm opening myself up to ridicule and it's all good.

Vespa, vixen, Mediterranean island

I hope it is a small island, cause you plus a "vixen" on a Vespa ... let's just say that your gas mileage may be on low the side. YMMV.

Me. If "anything" is really an option, I'd want to have one of those often discussed dinner parties with great historical figures; which would undoubtedly include Vespas, vixens and a Mediterranean island.

As for the great historical figures, I haven't figured that out yet. I'll let the vixens give me some suggestions.

 
Slab of Gates.

A bonfire.

Cooler of cold beer.

Wife and kids sitting around talking about life. I could die at the end of that day.
