Who Would You Choose to Have a Beer With? (past or present)
Beer Addled Brain | 6/12/05 | Pissant

Posted on 06/12/2005 7:02:22 AM PDT by pissant

Some of our most cherished memories in life revolve around sharing a drink with loved ones and friends. A fine bottle of Cabernet with your spouse on your anniversary. A 12 year old scotch with your father. Shots of tequila with the girl you've been after for months. Etc, Etc.

There are certainly people in our history and living today, that I would give my left nu.., er little toe, to share a beer and a long-winded conversation with. The following is off the top of my head, and hundreds more could be included:

LIVING:

3. Bob Dylan - my all time favorite enigmatic musician

2. Donald Rumsfeld - A real man amongst girly men

1. Mark Steyn - perhaps the most insightful, wittiest man on the planet

DEAD

3. Ernest Hemmingway - one of the few writers of fiction I love.

2. Ronald Reagan - The hero of our times

1. Ben Franklin - My alltime favorite historical figure.

Why, because of the love story? Why do they feel that they always have to do that in movies?

Old School is, I would argue, definitely a guy movie.

My ex- was an old curmudgeon and taught me to respect the history of important things - like aviation and racing.

As long as Argh doesn't get his hands on it, I'm guessing there might be some leftovers!

Probably a stone goblet of wine. That will do nicely. I'd be more than a little intimidated though!
