If given the opportunity who would you...

[Ireneparalegal]

have for guests at an informal dinner sitting at your table asking whatever you wanted and chatting for hours? and why would you choose them? Mind you, it could be anyone, famous, non-famous, infamous, rich, poor, alive, dead, it's your call, any people you want.

My guest list would be:
My late mother. She died when I was 6. I would want to know everything I never had the opportunity to ask.

Princess Diana. I loved her and admired her for
putting up with a lie of a marriage and yet being dignified in public regardless of what was going wrong in her life.

Tina Turner: Pretty obvious. Talk abt her life before and after her ex-husband.

Sophia Loren: I have always loved her and admired her beauty, talent, but most of all her life before she became famous. She is fascinating.

John Travolta: He is the man I wish I could marry. But seriously, he is just perfect. He loves his wife, his kids, his family, I have never heard a bad thing said abt him, he is just perfect to me.

Oprah Winfrey: What could I say. I like all the work she does and especially the charity work.

Mother Teresa: I would want to know everything abt her.

[Dumballa]

my dad - remember two meetings. I would get the chance to learn about the man for myself.

Marjory Stonemam Douglas - http://www.everglades.org/msd.html

Thich Nhat Hanh - One of his many books, "Peace Is Every Step" changed my life - http://www.seaox.com/thich.html

His Holiness the 14th the Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso - C'mon

Babe Ruth - obvious(greatest player of all-time) Probably had as much fun/happiness as anyone. and with that comes the times that weren't so great which creates one hell of a dynamic person

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - The greatest composer forever of: piano concerti, violin concerti, concerti for wind instruments, symphonies and opera. Not bad for a 35 year old.

Martin Luther King Jr. - wanted equality for all and wasn't afraid to try and actually get it.

[Jo_Luvs_Ketchup]

Let's see..

Selena- I have always wanted to meet her. Her death was soooo unfair and wrong!
My grandfather- I would always fight with him. He died when I was five. So much fun. Last time I saw him, I brought him a crunch bar shortly before he went into a coma
Princess Diana- I have to agree. I admire her for putting up with that %(^*%!
John Ritter- I think he was the first celebrity I cried my eyes out over when he died. So unexpected and unfair.
Kaitlyn- A girl in my school two years ago who died on Ash Wednesday. I wish I could've gotten to know her longer than I did.

That's all I can think of for right now. Off to bed for me!

[Ireneparalegal]

Lucille Ball: How could I forget to add her to my list. She is the ultimate. I have always loved her. I miss her.
John Lennon: He was the first famous person for whom I cried when he died. Lucille Ball was the second, Princess Diana was the third.
Yep, these added two would be at my dinner table obviously.
Selena, so sad. So special she was. pure intentional murder. no accident.

[AD FAN]

Lucille Ball - b/c of her groundbreaking TV show, and when I was younger, "I Love Lucy" was all I watched.

My Grandpa (Pop-pop) - b/c he died when I was a baby, and I know very little about him.

Norman Rockwell - my all time favorite artist.

Rudy Guiliani - enough said?

Martha Stewart - I'm seriously thinking about changing my name to Martha.

Dave Matthews - quite possibly the best live singer ever.

David Wright - The NY Mets 3rd baseman, and my future husband.

Michael Moore - he wouldn't be a guest though, we would eat him for dinner.

michael moore- i love his views
george bush-i would ask him a millon questions
my friend that passed away last year

[Number 9 Dream]

My Poppy (Dad's Dad) : I never met him for I was only 2 when he passed away...but I hear such great things about him and the love he had for me when I was an infant. He even saved my life when I was a baby. I'd love to just hug him and talk to him, let him know how I'm doing.

My Nana ( Mom's Mom ): She passed away from cancer a few years ago and I miss her so much. I'd love to talk with her one last time.

John Lennon: I bet there would be some interesting topics covered if he was invited. Plus, I'd make him sing to me

John Ritter: I love love loveeee this man. I bet he'd have us all in stitches.

members of my family/friends: I'd invite everyone I know currently and am close with.

[consentida]

Selena: If she were alive and I had any real chance of ever meeting her at all, she would be the only one. I wouldn't care about any other person. She was such a fun, down to earth person. We need more people like this.

Shakira: Such an intelligent person. I would love to talk with her about so many things.

Bonnie Bedelia: This woman amazes me to no end. I wish I knew more about her. She's so talented and...interesting.

Susan Sarandon: Another amazing one. She seems like fun.

Tommy Leee Jones: I love him. I love his movies. He seems very cool and laid back and stuff.

Johnny Depp: For...obvious reasons.

Cathy Moriarty: She seems like fun. She seems very down to earth as well. And her voice is so funny...

I guess that's it. I probably forgot a few...

[Fleet]

- Joyce DeWitt (for obvious reasons)
- Dawn Wells (for obvious reasons)
- John Ritter (because I've never met him)
- Ronald Reagan
- John Wayne
- Chuck Norris (to "spar" with... that means informal non-contact fighting)
- Clint Eastwood (to discuss his many movies)
- Abraham Lincoln
- Pres. G.W. Bush (so I can tell him to close the borders and stop spending so much, but to congratulate him on getting us out of the recession he inherited)
- Laura Bush (because she was a librarian... we could discuss many subjects)
- Jimmy Stewart (to discuss his many movies)
- Marilyn vos Savant (listed in the Guinness book of world records for highest I.Q.)
- Billy the Kid, Jesse James and Frank James (they can debunk some of the myths going around about them... don't worry, they would have to leave their guns outside)
- Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly (to discuss political matters)
- Janice (of Sitcoms Online fame)
- Janet Tripper (of Sitcoms Online fame and a major Joyce DeWitt fan)

- Michael Moore... listed in the Guinness book of world records for lowest I.Q. (so I can give him a few well-deserved karate kicks and tell him to shut up and stop talking about things he knows nothing about)

[Number 9 Dream]

But I get to see her first, right? You can see her after I'm through with her.

[Number 9 Dream]
