Awesome ideas that you will never get around to pursuing

This thread is exactly what it says here. Talk about awesome ideas you have but can't do or won't do for whatever reason. Mine are mainly:
1. A new Linux-based operating system.
-Actually this would be more like programming for an operating system base that has many different themes and graphical user interfaces, as well as different extra features and ways of handling apps. My old name for it was Galaxy but I dropped that due to the Samsung's Android phone line having the same name.
2. Many, many story/manga ideas.
3. A Christian UTAU and a Christian UTAU/Vocaloid community.
-This one's kinda justified, as I couldn't get the UTAU installer to work on my poor American Windows XP.

God bless!

My judo/jujitsu black belt.

See those characters in my sig? Yeah, I've been dwelling on their stories for years now. No idea what to do with them.

Visit all 50 US states plus Canada's provinces and territories. I can dream.

Relearn to do a split (well, I'm almost there)
Be able to sing pretty
Redraw The Last Supper
Become a moe
Go to Japan
Go bungee jumping
Marrying Gerard Butler (that's never going to happen since he's old enough to be my dad)

My list could go on and on.

For some reason when I thought of someone who had done all of those things I thought "Epic Grandpa." They would be the kind of person who when they are old and gray they tear their grandchildren away from the TV so they can tell the story about how when they were young their Shakespearean knowledge and skills in Jujitsu saved them when they were about to be mugged in England.
End random rambling.

-A thousand awesome story ideas I could go on all day about.
-Getting into shape. (I cannot be the only one to think this. >.>)
-Knitting or crocheting a bunch of rad sweaters.
-Learning to tap dance. (I like old musicals. A lot.)

Um...
Well, I have a list of projects that I'm not sure when they are going to get done, but I still intend to do them (or most of them). Some include making a computer game (my instinct might force me to make one anyways. xp jk) Making remixes of my favorite songs sounds fun, but most of those are definitely on the list of things I probably won't do. That, and programming a new OS based on Linux like you, Mew.

Hmmm...I will be going there soon. Going to visit my Distant Relatives and visit Vicenza (Where my Family is from).

Things I never get around to pursuing:

-Working on that Space Opera that I made as a kid.
- Learning how to do complex Computer Coding
- Learning how to knit.

Someday I would like to own my own website in which I sell homemade clothes (that I make) and artwork and stuff like that with 100% of the profits going to charity. I'm really awkward and shy with people and a terrible traveler, so I feel like that's the only way I could help others. I would want others to possibly contribute their work too to expand the site and keep it going if anything ever happened to me. It's a dream I have but I don't know if or how it could ever happen.

My other dream is to either stay here in NC in the mountains or move to Canada, kayak a lot on a gentle lake, own at least one dog and cat, paint a lot, and live in solitude and meditation for the rest of my life (when I'm not at my job anyway).

I think I can accomplish that second thing, actually. One thing that I doubt I'll ever accomplish is to get married, but that's one of my dreams too.
