Cheesy Famous People Dinner Party
So a few weeks ago I watched American Experience on PBS which is a program that focusus on a person or event or time or something in America's history. It's 3 hours long though and so I only ever watch the last hour. For the first two I watch Bones and House. (Yes all you people who are addicted and I didn't participate because I was playing with children while at Antioch, I have become one of you!) Anyways one of the two episodes that I watched the last third of was on Eleanor Roosevelt. She was AMAZING! Which inspired me to think of that famous people dinner party thing that I always thought was stupid but I've now been thinking about for several days.
Here's my party:
Myself
Gandi
Jesus
my mom
Eleanor Roosevelt
Coretta Scott King
my brother
Dali Lama
Whoopie Goldberg
My mom, my brother, and Whoopie Goldberg I think have wonderful ideas (like those increadably awesome yet genericly awesome, because lets face it, most of them aren't very hard to find out about)but they also would be good at keeping the level of tension due to the overwhelming amount of greatness down. They've also been around longer than I have so they'd know what sort of things to ask. Also the table should be a circle table so that everyone can talk more easily.
So who would you pick, living or dead, to sit at your table? You can know them or not.
