Those 100 things to do before you die.

Here's the whole list, printed on the occasion of the death of Dave Freeman, one of the authors of "100 Things to Do Before You Die: Travel Events You Just Can't Miss."

Ugh, it's all travel. Or "travel events," whatever that means.

La Tomatina: Food-fight festival held annually in Bunol, Spai, involving over-ripe tomatoes....

Devil Dancers of Corpus Christi: Locals dressed as devils dance under the tropical sun in church squares all over Venezuela each summer....

Hounen Matsuri: An annual Japanese fertility festival with a 7ft wooden phallus carried to a Shinto shrine....

Chung Yuan Ghost Month Festival: A celebration of dead spirits in Taiwan features the burning of paper money.

I'm perfectly content to allow multitudes of "locals" around the world to have their fun and work out their obsessions and fantasies without having me checking them out.

I'll just burn a few dollars here at home.
