Learn to Pick a Lock
I found something I want to do before I die – learn to pick a lock. Ligitimately, I want to be able to pick a lock with a paper clip or something similar. Half inspired by the article in wired, half because my mom could do it and showed me how a long time ago. My mom used to keep pennies, nickels and dimes in a small metal “bank” that she could pick the lock on with a hair pin. I was in elementary school, so I’m sure I couldn’t remember how to do it now, but I’d like to learn again. Add it to my bucket list – though I cringe at the name “bucket list”.
