historical figures for grabs.

I've always wanted to get really ripped with H.G. Wells. big surprise there
Add Darwin and we'll throw a kegger.

ELVIS

Jesus Christ! We'd smoke blunts and cure lepers all day!

HA
HA
HAHAHAHA
*high five*

Hmm. From Albert Einstein to Hitler to John Lennon to Jesus to Ghandi

*sigh* So many cool people.

Ever notice how all the cool people die? I mean, yeah. Everyone does. But we notice the cool ones more.. [/stupid]

Haha.. I hoped someone would get it (and then someone would find it funny, haha)

john rambo

Stanley Kubrick and Akira Kurosawa. Not terribly historical, but they're the guys I'd want to meet. Robert Heinlein as well. Guess I just haven't had any really old personas with a major influence on my life. Oops... Buddha Sakyamuni. I'd like to meet him.

Cleopatra probably wouldn't be a disappointment either.

Ghandi, Alexander the great, Jesus, Marcel Duchamp, Kerouac, William Blake, Yeats, Sartre, Ayn Rand and maybe Hunter S. Thompson or Thomas Jefferson.

Ooh, or Franklin.

A friend of my creative writing professor once went to a party where he recognized James Baldwin, but he didn't introduce himself because he was afraid Baldwin might hit on him. Regretted it the rest of his life.

That said, I'd LIKE to meet Orson Wells, but I'm afraid he wouldn't think much of me.

Rommel was all smoke and mirrors... LoL.

I'd pick characters in the same vein though... Oda Nobunaga, Atahualpa, Ruminahui, Moctezuma or Cuactemoc.... no thinkers for me please.... only do'ers or those who had it 'done' unto them.

As of today I think my top choice would be Ernesto Che Guevara.

Lord Byron would be a real bastard to have a few drinks with... maybe byron che and I could be drinking buddies.

Umm....did you really mean to list Hitler as one of the "cool people"?

Peter Cook.
Ezekial.
Alfred the Great.

In that order....

Ovid.

I'd like to meet either Richey Edwards (assuming he's dead) or Sylvia Plath... or Ron Howard (when he was in Happy Days) and tell him never to direct a film...

kerouac, or hemmingway
