Have you heard the word "bucket list" and you think: "Bucket, I know what a bucket is"? A bucket is something like this, you put things in it. If you go to the beach, you put sand in it, you can make a sand castle. And then you have the word "list", now a list is writing on paper, maybe a grocery list, or shopping list, or what lessons I'm going to do list. But "bucket list", what's a "bucket list"? I'll tell you. A "bucket list" is a number of things that you would like to do in your life. What do you want to do in your life? What are your dreams? So, "bucket list" basically just means what your dreams are in your life. I don't really have a lot. I've done a lot. What have you done? What do you want to do? I'm going to just go through some very simple vocabulary, and teach you about something really exciting that you can do, maybe check that off your bucket list. Maybe you want to be a rock star, maybe you want to record an album. A long time ago, we had these things called records. Maybe you want to be a rock star, or maybe you want to be like Barbra Streisand and sing "Hello Dolly". So, that's one of... A lot of people's things to do. And then if you make an album, you become a rock star, you get to go on tour. I've often thought about writing books. I have so many great ideas about books, and mice, and blarney, but you know, I'm just too lazy to actually sit down, and try and write one. Have you ever written a book? Is that on your bucket list? Next one: You want to drive a race car. I have a race car. I also have an airplane. Maybe you want to learn to fly an airplane. This could be you in the driver's seat, this could be your buddy is going to jump off the airplane. Maybe you want to drive this guy. It's really old, cool Royal Airforce airplane. Another thing that a lot of people want to do, like I said before, is drive a race car. Yeah. Not a Lamborghini, but it's still a car. I'm working with what I got, so driving a race car, you can go really fast. Or actually owning, a lot of people want to own some classic cars. This is beautiful. You could sit right there, I could sit here, we could go for a ride. Driving a race car, flying or jumping out of an airplane, dying. This is a curious thing, what does this mean: "Have a threesome"? One, two, threesome. A threesome is a lot of priorities on some people's list. A threesome basically means... Let's learn some slang. You have sex with two other people, and yourself. You're there, so that's you, and two other people. This is a lot of fantasies or bucket list for a lot of men out there. Have you ever done that? I think it'd be weird. So, a threesome means you have sex with two other people. I'm guessing that a lot of you, one of your bucket list things to do is to speak or to learn English very well. I've got something that can help you do this, I'm really excited. Maybe your bucket list includes come to Toronto where I am right now, and just kick it with me, just hang out with Ronnie. You can do that. This is my bucket list, it's short, because I have one, huge, big dream, and my dream is to travel the world. I've been to quite a few countries. I've been lucky enough to be able to travel. I want to see them all before I die. I want to go everywhere. I want to come visit you. I want you to come visit me. And this dream that you have, this bucket list can be checked off by this really exciting project that I'm going to be offering, it's called "Explore Toronto with Ronnie".
