If you could have lunch with anyone in history, living or dead, who would it be?

[Larry Lucido]

[spincaster]

Jesus, U.S. Grant, John Wayne, Wyatt Earp,Others

[rlmorel]

Good one...

George Washington...Churchill...Joseph McCarthy...James Stockdale...Chester Nimitz.

My Dad...:)

[rlmorel]

Interesting choice.

Probably just a boring bureaucrat though, trying to get tangles out of his hair!

But interesting!

[clamper1797]

Jesus or my late wife

[Larry Lucido]

It’s hard to narrow down.

One choice high on my list would definitely be Chester Nimitz.

Whoever it is, though, in the back of my mind I’d be wondering if the historic person would be wondering “How did I get stuck having lunch with this dufus??”

[The Mayor]

My cousin John Adams

[RinaseaofDs]

Somebody here said, ‘my grandmother’.

Almost brought me to tears. I’m very much for that. I miss her every day.

[fuzzylogic]

That was my immediate thought too. I’d like to tell him about the current state of affairs - see the look on his face.

[Larry Lucido]

See my #86 :-)

Also my father. WWII vet, died when I was 2. My two older brothers remember him better.

Not sure if I'd want lunch with anybody dead.

Sure, a corpse wouldn't eat much, but also probably wouldn't make interesting conversation.

[Uncle Miltie]

My Grandpa.

[ml/nj]

Mr. Jefferson; and I'd let him bring the wine.

ML/NJ

Alternate choice: W. A. Mozart; especially if I could get him to listen to my car radio (or my home stereo) playing his music.

[Ouderkirk]

Churchill, Benedict Arnold, DiVinci

[DoodleDawg]

James Madison.

[PeteyBoy]

Glenn Miller.

First-To thank him for all of the great music that made my parents and their friends happy.

Second-To ask him what happened. Why did he take that flight.

[Billthedrill]

Living - Henry Kissinger ("WTF was in your head, Henry?")

Dead - Caligula ("Damn, boy, you know how to throw a party. So does the word "orgy" have a hard G or a soft G in Latin?")

Living Dead - Keith Richards ("C'mon, Keith, what's the secret? Tell me, what's the secret?")

[Safetgiver]

Donald Trump.

[Midnitethecat]

Robert E Lee and Davy Crockett

[Neoliberalnot]

Jesus first if he would have me. Thomas Jefferson. George Washington. Robert E. Lee. Socrates. John the disciple.
