finally, a list i have five items for.

- mohandas gandhi

- john plantagenet

- thomas paine

- leonardo davinci

and a very good five it is. an excellent five.

it's true that king john was neither a great thinker or great humanitarian or anything like the rest of the list, but he just fascinates me. i mean, i have no illusions about him, he was kind of a Bad Man, but interesting as hell. and i really want an answer about arthur, i mean, did he order the prince's death or what??

sometimes the bad ones are the most interesting of all. sometimes they're not, too, but mostly, i've found, they are.

what would really make me squee? i'd like to get john, john's son henry (iii), and henry's son edward (i) and simon demontfort and both llywellyns in a room together and just have 'em, like, fight it out. zomg.

DEATHMATCH OMG.

best idea ever.

hand to hand, man.

henry would totally go down first, but i don't know if i'd hazard a guess about who'd be left standing...
