First off thank you so much to Joann (INNbride) for nominating me, I hope that we all enjoy this weeks questions......Happy Monday - for all of you that are teachers just 13 days until break again!!!! yay!!!
Ok on with the questions.....inspired by Kristens post last night abour prospective......
If you could have lunch with any 3 people, dead or alive, who would it be? Why?
My answer: 1. my grandmother, she was taken from us very unexpectedly several years ago and I would do anything to have just a few more minutes with her....2. Donald Trump - maybe he would tell me the secret to getting rich (and then i could share it with all of you!).....3. More serious now...An American Indian Tribe Leader from before out ancestors landed here, maybe he could teach us how to respect our earth again and how to live a simpler way of life, the manner in which americans live today is terrible I could go on and on but I wont bore you!

1. Im cheating a little... My grandparents- I never met three of them and one died when I was very young so I would love to have lunch with all of them to get to know them. 2. Princess Diana- I think she is a woman the represents so much elegance and class. She is an icon and a role model. 3. Oprah- She just has so much knowledge and dips her feet into all fassets of life. She would hoefully be able to offer so much perspective into my life. Also her connection list is unreal so hopefully that would spark more lunches with people...financial experts, guru's, Gale...hehe

1) Any leader from Al Qaida- Just to find out what is in their minds- why do they treat women they way they do. Why do they hate Americans so much... Just to find why are they so strong and extreme with their beliefs.
2) I would love to meet my Grandmother and both of my Grandfathers. I never met them and I would love to!
3) My Uncle. He died when I was 3. He was assasinated. I would want to know who killed him and why. We still do not know why or who did it.

1) My brother - There are so many questions that are unanswered. His death split the family and there is just so much I need to know.
2) JFK - I would be so interested to hear his side of the story, and really understand his position.
3) I would let Chris pick the third one. If I was given this ability I would allow him to get some questions answered as well.

Re: Ta-Da!!!!! QOTD March 3, 2008
there are so many, but mostly comes family:
1. my grandmother. she passed away a few years, just when i we finally really bonded. It was so heard, to say goodbye. She's inspired me so much, with her strength and love. I would love the chance to get to bond with her more and learn more about her.
2. My Nana and Grandpa. They live in Florida and aren't too healthy to fly up anymore, so I try to go down there as much as I can. Any opportunity to spend more time with them, I would take. They mean so much to me, and I couldn't picture my life without them.
3. My FH's Father. He passed away a year ago at such a young age and suffered so much for many years. I would love to bring him back, so my FH could have more time to bond with him and so I could get to know him better.

1. My long lost friend Wesley J. Whitworth, who passed away in 2000. He committed suicide. I would love to tell him all the things I never got to say and ask him why.
2. Jesus - I want to thank Him for what he has done for me.
3. Mother Theresa or Ghandi, to try to understand how to be a better person and to be so selfless.

My Grandma. - I would just want to know how she felt before she fell asleep and never woke up.
Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt - just to look at them and then to here their views on life, children, etc.
A Soldier from the war. Although i see them all the time on TV and in the News - I would love to sit down with one of them and just talk, also to meet their family.

2. My grandpa on my mom's side I never got to meet
3. And my grandma (my grandpa's wife) since she misses him so badly and I'd want her to see him again.
