James Carville and Bill Clinton....in that order.

ditto Jimmy Carter.

17. The asshole in that Toyota Tercel

That stopped traffic on Columbia Pike and caused me to be in a chain reaction accident. This happened in Arlington Va, back in 1994. After the accident, they drove off.

I'll make sure to bring a baseball bat with me, if I get to meet them.

Yes I know two of those are dead but there is so much I want to understand.

[Renew Deal]

27. MATCOM, Trumad, Skinner

j/k. It's a tough question. Only people still living?

[Shananigans]

28. Living or dead...it doesn't matter...

Mine are all living cuz of that whole realistic dream thing, but dead people are just fine to choose.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

29. Bill Clinton, ProudGerman and NeoProgressive.

I'd rather meet real people. Celebs aren't actually real. You guys were crazy for ignoring ProudGerman when he came here often. He's a great guy. One of my best friends ever.
Duckie

[JohnKleeb]

30. he is a great guy

Miss him sigh, it was funny though, right after I lost my internet connection in June-July, I saw Cold Mountain, and Bernie's town of Petersburg was in the beginning of the movie, what hollowed historical ground.

[UrbScotty]

31. Bill Clinton, John Kerry, and Jimmy Carter

:D

[redqueen]

32. Hmmmmm

Leonardo Da Vinci
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Aristotle

[grace0418]

33. I've actually already met my number 1

Neil Finn (no surprise there, huh FinnFan?) but I sure wouldn't mind meeting him again and perhaps becoming his friend.

I'd love to have an hour or two with John Kerry to tell him what I think.

Barack Obama (purrrrrrrrr)

[JimmyJazz]

34. My top three would be

Malcolm X
Ernesto "Che" Guevera
Jack Kerouac

[flvegan]

36. Dalai Lama and via time machine, Jesus Christ and Cleveland Armory

Dalai Lama: Kind of a hero to me.

Jesus Christ: I'd have to bring Him back with me, so I can ask him about His teachings and what in the Bible is fiction, non-fiction, etc. Also, how he feels about Shrubya. Of course, I'd then have a pay-per-view of me rapping with Him, taking the neocons apart. All proceeds to benefit the poor;

Cleveland Armory: Animal advocacy pioneer that I'll never get to meet.

[FarLeftRage]

37. All righty then!!!

Jesus Christ
John Lennon
Joe Strummer

and if I can't meet any of these folks, then I'll settle for my soulmate and the woman of my dreams..

[JimmyJazz]

38. You just know I have to ask...

why Joe Strummer?

[FarLeftRage]

39. Why?

You've probably seen the movie "Rude Boy", where Joe and Ray are sitting in a pub and talking politics.

Joe is the type of guy you could speak freely about left-wing causes and not only would he agree witth you, but also put his own two pence worth in as well....

Sorry for the late reply, thanks for asking.

[JimmyJazz]

41. Yes, I've seen it and he was one smart guy. FYI

In case you haven't seen it, NME recently published a magazine with all of their articles regarding the Clash. It starts at the very beginning and ends with a nice tribute to Joe. :cry:

A lot of the photos are Pennie Smith's, but some are ones I hadn't seen before. I found the magazine in Borders. It's really worth checking out.
