Nevermind, that didn't really work either. Here's what works for me:
(I made this list a project in OF!)

How to Make a Repeating Checklist
MAKE THE LIST
Create and name a new project
DO NOT set a start, due, or repeat on the project
Set the project up as paralell (not sequential)
Create the entire checklist with groups and actions
DO NOT add any start, due, or repeats until you are done with the list
UPDATE SETTINGS
Set ALL groups to parallel
Set ALL actions ONLY (not groups) start time to 12:01 AM
Set ALL actions ONLY (not groups) due time to 11:59 PM
Set ALL actions ONLY (not groups) repeats to 'Assigned Date'
CREATE PERSPECTIVE
Set the focus to the new project/checklist (with all groups expanded)
Set View Bar to: Ungrouped, Unsorted, Available, Any Duration, Any Flag State
In 'Perspectives' menu select 'Save Window as New Perspective'
ALL DONE! YOU HAVE A CHECK LIST!
Note: ONLY check off actions. DO NOT check off groups!
Note: Press apple-K as you complete items to see them disappear!

(If you check off the groups AFTER you check off the actions, it will check off the REPEATED versions of the tasks you just completed for the day even though you can't see them! That seems sorta silly, IMHO.) :)
