If you could have dinner with 5 people...

[Zwhaler]

Who would be be? Dead or alive. From any time, and anywhere in history. Just 5 people who you could eat dinner with and make conversation with. My friend brought up this idea and I thought it would be cool to post here. Sorry if there is a thread like this, but I couldn't resist 🙂 So who would it be? By the way, don't say god. You can say Jesus, but not god. He is already busy enough as it is 😎 For me, it would be:

1. Jesus
2. Steve Jobs (it ain't a dinner without Steve around!)
3. Bill Clinton
4. George Washington
5. Albert Einstein

This would one hell of a dinner! Now it's your turn.

Can 3 and 4 be Terri Summers and myself? I won't come nude, promise. 😉

 

[katie ta achoo]

1. My paternal grandfather
2. John Maynard Keynes
3. Einstein
4. Machiavelli
5. Timothy Geithner!

THAT would be awesome. Three economists, a physicist, and the greatest jerk there ever was. 😀

Groucho Marx
John Lennon
Sigmund Freud
John Peel
My Dad

 

[vouder17]

Nelson Mandela
Hugo Chavez
Princess Diana
Richard Branson
Albert Camus

Possibly the most random list ever, and i would not expect anyone to really be able to communicate with each other, but I would personally find it fascinating to meet these people.

 

[~Shard~]

What a great question! I don't even know where to begin or how to possibly only list five...

The engineer/scientist in me would invite Nikola Tesla / David Bohm...
The musician in me would invite Richard Strauss...
The adventurer in me would invite Reinhold Messner...
The businessman in me would invite Richard Branson / Donald Trump...
The actor in me would invite Christopher Nolan...
The strategist in me would invite Sun Tzu...
My warped sense of humor would invite Conan O'Brien / Seth Green...
The creative thinker in me would invite Steve Jobs...
I'd definitely have to include my brother...

There's going to be many more that I will think of, maybe I'll add some more at another time... Culling the list down to only 5 though would be near impossible... 😉 😎

I'll tell you what, bring Dylan with you and you can come - I'm sure we'll find room!
