Brucie.

So I could say the immortal line, "Nice to see you, to see you...NICE!"

It's the little things.

Mary port has aged badly in the eleven years his been on this site.

Brady for me - a little black humour would ensue

@maryportfuncity you mean - the joy of tagging on the new forum.

@NotTheNagsHeadReading what's with the long face?

The queen . I've always wanted to me a reptilian.

Other than that Bob Barker

[Zsa Zsa's leg 884]

Betty White or Jimmy Carter, both seem like great people.

She/They might eat you. A girl gets hungry you know.

I've met one person on the list already: Gord Downie. That was in 2015. I'd say Valerie Harper would be a cool meet because she seems like a sweet person and The Mary Tyler Moore Show is quite legendary in terms of American TV.

[Life Is Beautiful 716]

The God among humans that is Javier Perez de Cuellar!

[Drewsky1211 4,736]

I'd want to meet Herman Wouk to ask him how to live as long as he has.

[TQR 14,391]

I would probably say the DoE. Funny fucker he is.

 

Failing that, it'd be the revered, enigmatic, fascinating, legendary, god-like figure that is JP de Cuellar

[Life Is Beautiful 716]

Seriously tho, I'd love to meet Olivia, Fats, Herman and Jimmy:

 

Olivia: This a woman who started her career in the late twenties. Seen the Pre-code days, worked with Erroll Flynn, Clark Gable, Bette Davis, Henry Fonda, Montgomery Clift...won two Oscars. When she's gone, she will be the last of the last.

 

Fats: Probably the creator of Rock and Roll as we know it today. Was already selling records and topping charts in 1949 when Elvis was still a greasy-haired teenager mowing lawns in Texas. "The Fat Man" is probably the first rock and roll record ever. Most importantly, he is the one most responsible for abolishing racial barriers between whites and blacks in the music industry by playing and selling to white audiences. He did it with ease and with a smile on his face and without any racial or social tension. Which gaves us Elvis, but also Pat Boone and Styx. 

 

Herman and Jimmy: two old guys who have seen it all and done it all. They still look remarkably alert and coherent for their age. It is almost surreal how Wouk's mind is still sharp at 102. Jimmy almost died building houses for the poor under the scorching hot sun. At 92 no less! That's all you need to know about the man.

 

I could probably spend a couple of hours with those four.

[Joey Russ 7,223]

I would love to meet Stan Lee. He's one of my major idols, but sadly I don't think I'll ever meet him. Besides him, Kirk Douglas would probably be interesting to talk to, so would Jake Lamotta and Hugh Hefner. Those are my top ones at least. 

[Zsa Zsa's leg 884]

Jimmy Carter, George Bush Sr.

[msc 18,441]

Peter Sallis.

 

Meeting a ghost would be cool.

[runebomme 377]

 

who would you like to meet

 

who ever still has their marbles

[Vinegar Tits 606]

The Queen.

Mary Tyler Moore, Valerie Harper, Betty White.

 

Have seen: Duke of Edinburgh, Liz Dawn (she did something at Elland Road at half-time about 16 years ago).

[Life Is Beautiful 716]

Oh, I forgot. And from last year's list: Dr. Kissinger.

Say what you want about him, but that guy would be a interesting man to talk to. Even/especially today.

[Deadpool 166]

Stan Lee
