In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

I quit for 9 weeks one time and thought it was just another long gone bad habit.

Then, I entered a pub in Plymouth England.....but that is another story.
 
mine :

travel : visit Europe and the western US.
art : i'd like to organize my poems into books and put them out there. i need to devote some time to this. i've also always wanted to hear one of my bands on vinyl.
a lot of other stuff, including starting a family.

nine weeks is pretty decent. i barely made it two on a couple different attempts. Allen Carr's Easy Way book is what worked for me.

Haven't got a chance at trying my hand flying a fixed wing aircraft.
Have someone with their hands just over the controls in case I screw up or start taking aircraft from a stable attitude.
I just want to try my hand at it, see how I do.
Getting a full pilot's license is just too insanely expensive, I can't justify that.

Also aircraft related:
Get a ride in an acrobatic airplane
Maybe get a ride in a military jet aircraft - but that too is insanely expensive
