Everybody’s got a Bucket List of things they really, really want to do. What’s on Greater Boston host Emily Rooney’s?
- “I would really, really, really like to be invited to a State Dinner. I mean, really…with the President. Any President. I don’t even care.”
- “I really, really, really want to interview Cardinal Bernard Law. I would go to the ends of the earth…I would even hold it, for posterity, wait until he dies. I would do anything.”
- “This is a little bit macabre. I want to witness an execution. I want to be there…I’d like to be the reporter there.”
- “One other thing I want to do as a journalist: I want to put on one of those hazmat suits and go into any contaminated space…Full regalia, with the breathing machine, the whole thing.”
- “I want to convince O.J. Simpson to confess.”
- “Some of these are a little ridiculous. I’ve never been to the Kentucky Derby!”
- “I’d also like to get a ride in a blimp. I can’t believe I’ve never done that…I’m not doing a hot air balloon.”
- “I’d like to have a conversation with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. Just a conversation.”
- “You know what I’d like to get the nerve up to do? Ask for a raise. I’ve never done it. You know why: cuz karma!”
