24. Feast on the blood of the living . . . no, scratch that

We've all seen books with titles like 100 Things to Do Before You Die. A current print ad campaign for Visa offers a list of "Things to do while you're alive."

Think about it. That's redundant.

With all the "before you die" lists out there, I'm guessing they chose their words carefully. It looks like they've also decided to not put a finite number to it (100, 101, 1,000, etc.) Maybe their point is to encourage people to view their experiences and accomplishments as something that contributes to their lives, not just as a countdown to their deaths.
