Instructions: Nauru is a tiny island all alone in the middle of the Pacific. Today let them know they're not completely forgotten by sending the President a friendly postcard at Office of the President, c/o Ministry of Works, Yaren Nauru.
I sent a virtual pinterest quote to avoid figuring out the postage and had to settle for sending to the Executive Security.
I did learn in my research though that the waters are so deep there that boat anchors won't touch the bottom. Interesting stuff :)

Day 30 - Ignore today
This was hard being that it was Mother's Day and we had a family cook out. However, I did manage to ignore any problems in my life for a day so I count that as a success.
Day 29: Dial a phone number at random and read this script with a Deep South accent
It was a biblical passage. I didn't do.

Day 28: Choose your final meal on death row and make it
The poplar choices listed in the book are as follows:
Leonard Rojas Offense: Double Murder. Executed: 12/04/2002
One whole fired chicken (extra crispy), salad with Thousand Island dressing, French toast, two Diet Cokes, one apple pie, and French Fries
Lawrence Buxton Offense: Murder. Executed 02/26/1991
Steak (filet mignon), pineapple upside-down cake, tea, punch and coffee
Ron Shamburger Offense: Murder. Executed 09/18/2002
Nachos with chili and cheese, one bowl of sliced jalapenos, one bowl of picante sauce, two large onions (sliced and grilled), tacos (with fresh tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese), and toasted corn tortilla shells.
It was a toss up between a cheeseburger and french fries (don't know how to use the grill or make french fries), filet mignon (I really need to learn to grill), and.....
And a dream meal wouldn't be complete for me without crunchy bread (and yes crunchy is a culinary technical term..lol). I didn't make the bread though :)
Side Note: Death Row Cannibal Denied Last Meal: Archie Williams, 36, was denied his last meal before his execution in July 2002. Reports from the prison state that Williams had requested that he be served his cellmate, John Perison, who was also on death row awaiting his execution had agrred to himself be fed to his friend after his death. 'They had made some sort of death pact with each other a few weeks before they were set to be executed' stated Kevin Marsh, Warden of the San Angelo Maximum Security Prison. 'The state is not in the habit of granting such odd and disgusting requests.'

Day 26 - Choose what you'd prefer to be reincarnated as
Instructions: Circle your first choice and send of with a $5 donation to the Dalai Lama, Lhassa, Tibet.
Notes: Not sure if the authors didn't do their research, but info. I'm finding talks about exile from Tibet and it seems the current place to send donations has changed. In any case, here is where I sent mine:

Day 25 - Things You Will Never Do Before You Die
Due to some life crises we had to take a short hiatus from our daily tasks that will change our lives - but we are now back on track and picking up where we left of with Day 25.
Instructions: Tick the boxes to come to terms with the fact that you will never....
Some of the items I checked included become a fitness instructor and greet the extraterrestrial delegation.
Side notes: I would, however, like to add "crush grapes in my bare feet" to my bucket list of things TO DO and I didn't know what a lot of the words in this list meant such as cuneiform and truculent - but I do now :)
