This a good list - a mix of things you'd probably want to do, and a couple of things you probably wouldn't.

I think your goal for the uncompleted things should be to do several at a time. Seeing the Sistine chapel would be great - but what if you held a praying mantis while there?! Awesome.

Getting fired sucks - but if you can break a bone at the same time - you've just entered epic territory.
