I'm going to do something today that I've never done before.

Try to guess. If you begin with "I hope it's..." I predict somebody will get it quickly.

IN THE COMMENTS: The second commenter, Rockeye said:
Going shooting. A boy can hope.
That's the answer. I shot a gun!

I had 2 hours of training and practice at shooting range.

AND: Here's my new post with video.

Request an absentee ballot?

gspencer કહ્યું...

get a tattoo

Dave Begley કહ્યું...

change party registration to Republican.

Rick કહ્યું...

"I hope it's"...announce your candidacy for public office. I don't expect you to win, in fact the reverse. But it would be an informative test to identify how many liberals there are in Madison.

Expat(ish) કહ્યું...

I’d like to know what @Meade guessed.

-CC

Equipment Maintenance કહ્યું...

Buy Meade some shorts.

AustinRoth કહ્યું...

Bikini wax?

Call spirits from the vasty deep.

Well, who knows. But, that's normally the start of a good day. Hope it is.

Ken B કહ્યું...

Be neutral.

Birches કહ્યું...

DD Driver has a good guess.

Ken B કહ્યું...

Rick's suggestion is a good one! I'd vote for Althouse for senate. Except I’d never live in Wisconsin.

First Tenor કહ્યું...

I hope it's try your hand at animation, ala early commentator Chips Ahoy.

Amadeus 48 કહ્યું...

I hope it is walk naked down State Street to illustrate your commitment to individual liberty and free expression in these troubled times.

Come on, professor. You have still got it!

Alternatively, wear blackface down State Street for the same reasons.

Alternatively, wear a sign board that says, "He that knows only his own side of a case knows little of that."

MayBee કહ્યું...

What I think you've been wanting to do for a long time: Try LSD. But I don''t hope its that.

What I've been hoping you would do for a long time: take a yoga class. But I don't think yoga studios are open in Madison

What I think you've been secretly longing to do: visit Japan. But I know it isn't that.

So....I hope it is get a dog.

Ann Althouse કહ્યું...

I've had LSD — 50 years ago.

Ann Althouse કહ્યું...

No way I'm up and visiting Japan today. You have to get in a plane.

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

Have you done yoga before? That might be a guess.

You're getting a dog?

You're going to appreciate the beauty of a man in shorts.

I'm Full of Soup કહ્યું...

Parachute?

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

I didn't see Left Bank's guess before I guessed.

Francisco D કહ્યું...

Ann Althouse said...I've had LSD — 50 years ago.

Window Pane, Orange Sunshine or some other variant?

Why do I know these names?

I tried LSD in 1971. It was great, but I did not like the long term prospects. I might have become a CHAZ/CHOP resident.

NCMoss કહ્યું...

Going for a run in your birthday suit to protest for world peace?

mccullough કહ્યું...

Put up an American flag

Matthew Heintz કહ્યું...

Anal sex?

Sebastian કહ્યું...

"I'm going to do something today that I've never done before."

Resolve to vote on the basis of policy and principle rather than personality.

BlackjohnX કહ્યું...

Admit I was wrong about something

jeff કહ્યું...

Hold my beer, watch this...

dbp કહ્યું...

I hope it's get a puppy! They love early morning jogs, but carrying a plastic bag of poop is kind of a drag, though it is the right thing to do as a responsible dog owner.

Kylos કહ્યું...

Shoplifting?

I'm Full of Soup કહ્યું...

On further thought, it has to exclude exposure to other people so parachuting is out. Perhaps she is mailing me a birthday card which she has never done before.

MayBee કહ્યું...

Ha! You didn't say it isn't yoga!!!! I hope it's that!

MayBee કહ્યું...

If it's yoga, and you like it, then I will send you a gift certificate to take an online class at my yoga studio.

Fernandinande કહ્યું...

Not care what they say and not stay in a world without love?

Ron Nelson કહ્યું...

The way that phrase has been traditionally finish is "a boy" or "a girl". If this is Ann's first grandchild that would fit with "I'm going to do something today that I've never done before."

Mark O કહ્યું...

Stay in bed all day.

Dan from Madison કહ્યું...

banning a commenter or commenter(s)

Hammond X. Gritzkofe કહ્યું...

I hope it's go to a pistol range. Rent a Ruger 2245. Good to start with. Pistol shooting - it's a zen thing.

Ron Nelson કહ્યું...

buwaya કહ્યું...

Convert to Catholicism.

Leslie Graves કહ્યું...

It might be cut your own hair? But that doesn't work with the prompt.

Kai Akker કહ્યું...

I hope it's fun.

I hope it's selling most of your stock portfolio. That should be fun, in retrospect.

LAST CALL @ 11 Wall

Carol કહ્યું...

Too late to file for office I think. Unless as a write-in.

Meade કહ્યું...

I hope it's... be in the car buckled up in 4 minutes. Or we'll be late!

Rosalyn C. કહ્યું...

Go jump in the lake?

PatHMV કહ્યું...

Endorse Trump for re-election?

Bushman of the Kohlrabi કહ્યું...

Take a passionate stand against the suppression of free speech?

Ken B કહ્યું...

It won’t be, attend Wagner's Ring.

Sebastian કહ્યું...

"I'm going to do something today that I've never done before."

Admit the right is right.

Jaq કહ્યું...

"Admit I was wrong about something”

She’s done that, she said she was sorry that she voted for Hillary.

Andrew કહ્યું...

"I've had LSD — 50 years ago."

There goes your chance at a Sup Ct nomination. Remrmber Douglas Ginsburg?

cubanbob કહ્યું...

Considering the great job that you and Meade did covering the fracas during the Walker recall I thought for a moment the two of you would go to Seattle to report on CHAZ/CHAZ. Then I remembered you guys don't fly. Whatever it is, I hope it's fun.

Readering કહ્યું...

How was the egg salad?

tcrosse કહ્યું...

Loot.

AZ Bob કહ્યું...

End moderation?

Mark કહ્યું...

Finally apply moderation to the trolls who offer nothing but personal attacks.

But apparently you approve of Drago and the rest shitting on your blog and ignoring your rules.

loudogblog કહ્યું...

Watch a movie that I've been resisting watching because everyone tells me that I should watch it.

PM કહ્યું...

Finally get a driver's license. Good luck on the parallel park!

AllenS કહ્યું...

You are either going to buy, or shoot a gun, or a combination of both?

David Blaska કહ્યું...

Read, aim ...?

David Blaska કહ્યું...

Ready, aim ...

Leland કહ્યું...

I hope Meade is putting on shorts.

ColoradoJim કહ્યું...

Ride on your ebike all the way to the lake without the motor being used? Or perhaps skipping the car on your sunrise runs? You are probably in your best shape in a long time so I can see it as one of your challenges.

n.n કહ્યું...

... a "boring" day?

RigelDog કહ્યું...

Wash your shoes?

I hope it's get a puppy, though. Somehow I'm feeling skydive.

Shane કહ્યું...

I hope it's...taking photos of sunsets

Lewis Wetzel કહ્યું...

Start smoking?

NorthOfTheOneOhOne કહ્યું...

You're buying an AR-15.

Temujin કહ્યું...

Its either that you're going to make a video of you and Meade and post it online, or...you're finally going to allow Meade to wear shorts.

Eddie કહ્યું...

I was thinking "porn," but then I remembered the egg sandwich video.

BudBrown કહ્યું...

Wear a mask to a store and not rub it?

Krumhorn કહ્યું...

I hope it’s going bass fishing.

- Krumhorn

Harry Lime કહ્યું...

I know what it's not: eating an egg salad sandwich.

langford peel કહ્યું...

"I'm going to do something today that I've never done before”

Make sense.

Richard Dolan કહ્યું...

I hope it's safe.

RobinGoodfellow કહ્યું...

“ Blogger Sebastian said...

Let’s not get nuts here!

Tomcc કહ્યું...

Japan is a long way to go for a dog.

bagoh20 કહ્યું...

Let Meade wear your clothes?

bagoh20 કહ્યું...

Climb Everest?

bagoh20 કહ્યું...

Behead an infidel?

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

My wife and I were talking about shooting yesterday. Guns and shooting is something I learned in Boy Scouts. (I've done very foolish things with a .22 despite that, but no one was shot). She had hunter safety in high school, but has never shot a gun.

MayBee કહ્યું...

Exciting! How did it go?

rehajm કહ્યું...

Nice! How'd it go? Are you interested because of self-defense? Just curious?

Earlier this year brought my spouse along to an academy clinic and spouse's office assistant asked if she could maybe tag along next time. There's lots of quiet but curious people out there.

I've also found lefties 'hate' guns but love love love shooting them...

Ann Althouse કહ્યું...

I put up a new post with video. Check it out.
