living: mercades lackey.

dead: my great great grandmother gatewood. who was 12 with the civil war started. my great uncle tells some of her stories at family reunions and she sounds like she was a character. very much the southern woman.

And if it's Goldwater, would that be before or after the '64 election?  One of the radio hosts up here thinks that Barry was more than a bit senile later in life.

There are folks here & elsewhere who say, "I'm a Goldwater conservative."

My usual response is, "Which Goldwater?  The one before 64, after 64, or after he retired?"

Their response is usually the online equivalent of indignant grunts.

[Antibubba]

As it does with Harold, the Dalai Lama rates high on my "living" list.

"Dead" is harder: Golda Meir, Frank Zappa, Karl Marx, da Vinci.  Richard Feynman.  If I'm going to meet one of the Founding Fathers, I find Jefferson to be less interesting than Ben Franklin.

Why not the J-man Hisself ??

Oh, no, the one I'd like to meet is Judas.  I want to find out if it was an inside job.

Who would I most like to meet, still living?  Do I have to choose one?

1) George W Bush.  I'd just love to know if he's as awesome as some people think, or if he's as awful as others think.
2) Obama.  same as above.
3) Paris Hilton.  I've just GOT to know if she's as stupid as she looks...


Who in history?

1) Ben Franklin
2) Richard Feynman
3) My Real Grandfather, Jerry Green.  He died when my dad was 8.

Oh wow, I loved her books when I was growing up.  Strangely, many of her books shaped my strange outlook on life and politics I think.

[just Warren]

The guy who broke into my house can fill both slots.

one of her latest books, Reserved for the Cat has a couple moments that make me think she may be pro-gun.

she's been one of my favorites since i read By The Sword in 7th grade. Kero is one of the coolest, toughest, female characters i've ever read about.

[Devonai]

Why not the J-man Hisself ??

Because I'll see him soon enough, I'm sure.
