Meme in the making

The term "meme" has been hijacked and repurposed on the Internets to mean "something that is passed around on the internet, usually requiring some response or modification by each recipient." This is pretty far from what the term first meant when it was coined by Richard Dawkins decades ago,but that's the way these things go.

I'd like to try to turn this list written by Francesco Marciuliano into one of these latter-day memes. The premise is simple: "(A) succinct list of activities everyone should engage in, not only for the amusing anecdotes but also to know what it truly means to be human. And because of a crippling economy, paralyzing oil prices and myelopathic job market I made certain that each of the following life-affirming pursuits would cost no more than five dollars, tops."

I plan to do my own list, but after mowing and weedwhacking the lawn across town, I'm too wiped out. Maybe tomorrow. Be sure to read Franceso's list, and start thinking of items you'd like to add. Or just make your own list!
