Who would you like to have dinner with, dead or alive and why?

I'll start (can you tell I don't want to do work today??).

Jane Austen.

I think she was, and still is, a marvelous role model for women. Her female characters were so extraordinary (especially Eliza Bennett!!!) and ahead of their time. She herself was an incredible source of power - extremely witty and at times sarcastic and imagine at that time turning down (at least) 2 proposals??

My mom and DH's mom

Princess Diana

JFK & RFK

Clinton

I'm sure I can think of others..

Personally speaking - either of my grandfathers (passed away before I was born) or DH's late materal grandmother (she sounds like an incredible woman)

As far as 'celebrities': Jackie Kennedy Onassis.

my deceased relatives, especially my dad, grandfathers and grandmothers.

DH's deceased relatives, especially his aunts Paulette and Annie.

of course anyone who is deceased..just so i can ask them why they had to leave..

but celebrity..sylvia plath because i love her writing and her life intrigued me..
