If you could have dinner with anyone now living, or dead (no, no zombies now); who would it be and why?

I'll go first...

Doris Kearns Goodwin--History Professor; and because she knows a lot about Roosevelts, and made me admire them growing up.

Deborah Harry--because she was adopted, punk, and is beautiful even at 63.

Bill Gates - He would pay whatever I eat :biggrin:
 
Karen Carpenter
 
Uh, too many to name...
 
My wife. We never order the same thing so we can sample from each other's plate.

One that comes to mind is Socrates. I was corrupted by him as a young person and would like to thank him.
 
All the people who did not eat enough today.

I have no idea why I just said that :rolleyes:
 
Probably Richard Simmons right after he's done sweatin it to the oldies.


Edit: Richard Simmons while he is sweatin it to the oldies.
 
Lucifer...just for the lulz

So would I. Well, perhaps not all of them simultaneously, better one by one...

*thinks hard*

I guess I´'ll start with Lindsay Lohan :-p

It would have to be that girl that does the dictionary on countdown (quiz show in UK), Sue Dent?

I don't care who I have dinner with, what's important is who is doing the cooking! :biggrin:

:smile:
And more important than that:what's the dinner?
 
It would have to be Axle Rose, Guns-n-Roses. Can you imagine what a great party dinner that would be? GNR is my favorite band!

lol, so you could watch her pick at her salad and sip water?


i think i would like to dine with Temujin.
 
Mr. Snuffleupagus. He seems like he would be very easy to please and get along with at a dinner table. Especially since I'm dying to ask him just what the hell he is.
 
Dead:
Nikola Tesla or Mark Twain

Living:
Alton Brown
 
A clone version of myself
 
Jaco Pastorius

Because he was the best of the best bass player ever. He could make his bass sing better than people can with their voice.
 
Mine would have to definitely be Richard Feynman. I see him speak so enthusiastically when talking about physics and it is truly inspiring. Also what a funny guy, he seems to have been a real practical joker as well. It would have been great to grow up with him as a father or grandfather.

Leonardo DaVinci

I have always been in awe of him.

make it three settings...


(four if Leo brought his--uhmm--'date')
 
I was going to say anyone who would be willing to pay for the dinner :), but I noticed I had said the same thing about a year ago.
 
My wife. I've been sitting in this restaurant for half an hour waiting for her to show up. Where is she?
