Tick box

It's a phrase I like to use quite often:

Tick Box - that square in checklists and surveys. That box that insists you adorn it with a skewed "v".

I like tick boxes. I have always liked seting my self lofty goals. It's the whole Batman-there-is-nothing-else-to-do-than-have-obsessions-in-life philosphy. I mean really everything gets a bet cruisy and boring but having a focused, intense competitive goal; keeps it interesting.

Nothing more than that really. I love sports video games - because it allows me to compete. It keeps the rush going. Sometimes - I nearly like losing or having to work really hard to win because it bites at me. Gnaws at me. I fully empathise with Obama's suggestion that this is the time to Preside over the States. What better time? A time when he will get pushed, his mettle will be tested. A challenge for the ages.

It's high time I had a tick box. High high time.

There are two tick boxes the first is the mandatory:

The second is the "things I would like to have done in my life: list:
