There's quite a few that come to mind for me.

Robert Ripley - founder of Ripley's Believe It Or Not.  I totally dig this man's lifetime work of finding the oddest sh!t known to man and beast.  I'd love to pick his brain about all things odd over lunch.

Fred Rogers - I've always admired Mister Rogers and his outlook on life.  If anything I think I'd leave lunch feeling much better about life in general.

Jim Henson - Another person I owe a lot of my childhood joy to.  I think I would be entertained just hearing him do kermit's voice amongst others.

The Staff Past and Present Of Mad Magazine - I love Mad Magazine and would love to spend a whole bunch of time ragging on pop culture with the "usual gang of idiots".

Weird Al Yankovic- I did get to meet him after a concert over the summer.  Granted, we had a short 3 minute conversation while he gave me an autograph, he was different than other celebrities I met.  Namely, he didn't have 18 security guards blocking you from him.  You stood right next to him, he gives a big hug, takes pictures, records voice mails, etc., just happy to have fans and treat them with respect.  He was a big part of my childhood, and was a glimmer of happiness when I needed it, so to not only see him live but meet him at the same time.  It'd be fun to pick his brain about being part of MTV back when the M stood for Music. Wink

Barack Obama- I know plenty of people who don't like him or his policies.  I'm not a Democrat or even a Republican, but it'd be interesting.  I just like the guy.  Don't know why. 

Layne Staley- Alice in Chains original singer.  Sadly, he's since passed away about 9 years ago of an overdose, but I can relate on a personal level to many of the songs they've done, what with the drug issue and all.

I'd love to play an all night game of "Trivial Pursuits" with Stephen King, Weird Al Yankovic, and George W. Bush!

Then I'd have Churchill, Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt over for breakfast.

Olivia Newton-John.  Rowrr..
Roddy McDowall seemed like an incredibly nice guy. 
Charles Bronson seemed like a very personable, approachable man, especially in his later years.
Paul McCartney.  Always liked him.
Nicole Kidman.

With somebody who appreciates food. I think it would be quite fun to have lunch with Julia Child, Jamie Oliver and Guy Fieri.

Johann Sebastian Bach.  The guy's always fascinated me.  I read a very long biography of him once and though it covered every detail of his life, I got very little sense of his personality.  I'd really like to see what he was like.  He must have been an incredibly driven person, yet at the same time when he traveled, he ran up some pretty large bills at the local taverns.

Albert Einstein.  Read a biography of him as well.  He must have been a very interesting person.  Rather rebellious, didn't do things the usual way, yet he was one of the most brilliant people to ever live.

One of the old Egyptian Pharaohs.  I can't imagine the level of luxury they must have lived in, and what it would do to their mindset.

Count me in for Wierd Al and Julia Child.  Thumbup  Julia just seemed to be the ultimate host who could probably start a conversation with anyone about anything.

That's me you read the biography on, Jack.  Wink

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
