I was starting to find my 101 list very hard to read, especially with all the commentary and editing I had done, so here is the trimmed-down current list. Completed or negated goals removed, including completed parts of goals (so, e.g. sushi and onigiri is now just onigiri), and all goals in edited form only. (I went on an editing spree a while back when I decided I had made this too hard and it was annoying me.)

Reposted from the original, and from 101 in 1001: my list (go there if you want to see where I’m at with commentary/completion dates).

My 1001 days goes until Nov. 9, 2009. When a task is complete, I’ll remove it from this list, strike it out on the original and note the completion date, and perhaps post about it.
I’m substantially behind percentage-wise, but W2W ’08 was not initially on my list of goals, so I’m interested to see what will happen after I finish that.
