101 in 1001: Master Post
This is my Master Post for 101 in 1001, put in a forwarded dated sticky post so that people can easily see it as the first thing in my journal. Also, since I'll be finishing up on 29 September 2011, I figured it was apporpriate. I'll update this post as things are accomplished instead of reposting my list every time.
00. These are things yet to be started
00. These are things that are in progress
00. These are things which have been completed and their finish date.
