    If you could invite any 5 living persons to dinner, who would it be?

    Mine would be:

    1. Barack Obama:happy:
    2. Bill Clinton:happy:
    3. Bill Maher:happy:
    4. Larrry David:laugh:
    5. David Letterman:laugh:

    The first 2 would be so captivating to talk to. The last 2 would be a laugh a minute especially Larry David and the middle one of Bill Maher would be a great facilitator, with many insights. I miss his show P.I.

    Who's yours?

    I just checked your profile. 28 year old female. I mean, do you really think you could get a word in edgewise at your table? Those are some TALKERS.

    I'd invite Ferran Adria - world renowned chef from Barcelona, to cook the dinner. (You need to reserve a table at his restaurant at least 6 months in advance.) And as my other guests, 4 prominent women in business so that I could impress them and hopefully get an offer to work with them.

    Andrea Jung (Avon)
    Meg Whitman (eBay)
    Indra Nooyi (Pepsi)
    Mireille Guiliano (Veuve Clicquot) - and also the author of "French Women Don't Get Fat"

    We could talk about all aspects of consumer business, the relative merits of champagne and (diet) pepsi, why there aren't more world renowned female chefs! If Ferran is not available, I'd invite the chef from French Laundry in Napa Valley. If he's not available... well, I'd just go down the list of restaurants where it's hard to get a table. I need a reason for these business leaders to dine with me after all!

    1. a chef to cook my dinner
    2. a waiter to serve my dinner
    3. a maid to clean up after the chef and the waiter and me
    4. a masseuse for an after dinner massage (with the pregnancy belly table so my full gut would be comfortable during the massage)
    5. a stringed symphony to play while I was massaged to sleep


    This is my fantasy dinner, right? :wink:


    OMG!! That sounds so perfect and relaxing!!

    1. Wayne Dyer
    2. Deepak Chopra
    3. My Mom (she's hundreds of miles away and I miss her so)
    4. Joyce Meyer
    5. And my man, but he'd have to agree to listen and not roll his eyes etc etc (he & I differ greatly when it comes to philosophies of life and spirituality) Maybe he'd learn something or have a revelation of some sort! (Not that I want to change him or anything).

    I thought about Oprah, but honestly, she interrupts people too often. (i.m.o.) Sorry for all the Oprah fans!

    Oh, this would be too good.

    Nancy Pelosi
    Michael Savage
    Bill Belichick
    Howie Carr
    Barney Frank


    Me and Bill would just sit back and watch Howie and Savage just tear Pelosi and Frank new ones (bad pun?), then I'd have an in depth conversation with Bill about the intricacies of 2 gap stunts and Monster overloads.
