Interesting thread! If I could I wold LOVE to meet ........John Cusack

, George Strait, Rocky Dare, Cesar Milan. From the past I would have liked to have known and chatted with Geronimo, Custer, Wyat Earp, George Washington and some of the pioneer women I have read blogs and books of their travels across the prairies.

 

[Mark & Sharon Bullington]

Top of the list - Jimmy Buffett.

Jack Kennedy, FDR, Lincoln and Howard Hughes.

Would have liked to meet my grandfather, uncle Joe, and my great grandfather too - even though they're not famous.

Neat Topic

JFK....id ask him what he thinks of our country

Cat Stevens.....id tell him to pleassse make one more "album "

Jane Goodall.....Id ask her for my $$$ back b/c I went and listened to her a few yrs. ago....very expensive and all she did was ask the audience questions

I wish she told more stories about herself/live

Kurt Vonnegut....I wouldnt dare say ANYTHING to him....I'd just stare at him

All I can think of right now

 

[Marty]

Jon Bon Jovi

Harrison Ford- I still think he's hot

Robin Williams

Wilder, Gene- "strike that; reverse it!"

Jesus

The Dalai Lama- my friend says he's a great guy and pretty dang funny

I love reading the responses here!!!

It's neat how many of you said Robin Williams. I used to be a fan but now, when he comes on XM Radio, I have to change the channel. He's too wound up for me

Yet I'll laugh at someone with really rotten humor like Jim Norton so I don't know what's wrong with me

Most of the people you've named, I'd also enjoy talking to if I had the chance

 

[Carriage]

Jesus ChristEinstein

Ya beat me to it Buckskin. Meeting the "Guy" who paid for your sin before you were even born HAS to be at the top of the list. That's ok, I'll wait for my appointment...

As far as a human bean as Mickey Rooney said once, and most fitting to the political season, a hero and fellow countryman, William Wallace.

 

[Keri]

John Wayne.

I would love to meet with the generals of the civil war (always intersted me) and see their points on the war. It may be bittersweet and sad to know their destiny already.

 

[Candice]

This is an entertaining thread. My top pics on the spur of the moment would be:

Bill Gates

Freddie Mercury

Steve Irwin

Marilyn Monroe

Dwight Yoakam

Michael Landon

Martha Stewart

Elvis

John Wayne

Talk about a "Potluck"

 

[joylee123]

Jacques Cousteau

Andy Griffith

 

[bfogg]

I also would like to meet God!

Interesting thread!

 

[minimule]

I'd love to meet Jimmy Buffett!

Tom Selleck tops my list though. Not only a hunk but a REAL cowboy!

Sam Elliott

Clint Eastwood

Teddy Roosevelt. I'd love to talk to him about all his African adventures.

Sarah Palin......she seems like she would be a good friend with a lot of the same interests.

One of my sister-in-laws has a photo of her as a very young child sitting in Geronimos lap.

It has been really interesting reading your responses!!!

It would be fun to meet Lou Ferigno (the incredible hulk guy from the 80's and ex body builder champ) I don't know....he seems like a nice person. He's on "king of queens" from time to time.
