The Ancestors' Geneameme

There was a lot of genealogy blogging going on while I was off cruising and traveling for most of the past two weeks. Today I started trying to catch up on reading before my Google Reader explodes (it still says 1000+, I don't want to know the actual number). 

I need to get back into the swing of things. This meme started at Geniaus and it looks interesting so here goes. 

The list should be annotated in the following manner:
Things you have already done or found: bold face type
Things you would like to do or find: italicize (colour optional)
Things you haven’t done or found and don’t care to: plain type
You are encouraged to add extra comments in brackets after each item 

Which of these apply to you?
