Who Would You Choose to Have a Beer With? (past or present)

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.

I am having my thag withdrawal again!!

My first thought is to kick yourself in the shin - that should make it go away.

Or, we could continue to terrorize Pissant...

LOL!!

Thank you.

If I could talk to half those people I'd consider myself a lucky dog.

I would like to have a beer with Donald Trump.

Why? Because I would get to drink his beer as well!

[right way right]

Are you ok?
Are you Matt Drudge?

[right way right]

Maybe current headlines are driving you mad?

We should do a current version. W and Karl Rove would not earn as many beers!!!!

Holy guacamole. I forgot this thread existed. Looking back on my selections, I’d swap out Rumsfeld for Trump and Hemingway for a young Monica Vitti.
