well, you get any five people in a room and they'll all talk over top of each other in my experience!
i may as well get a good laugh out of it
1) Madonna
2) [MENTION=3799]bionic[/MENTION]
3) Hemoglobin + her bf (they're 3rd because they aren't on this forum; if they were, I would rank them along with bio)
5) Any other Fe-INFp guy I'm having an infatuation with
I'm going to make Madonna eat pizza. (lol j/k)
If it was something more classy I'd serve steak? Idk. I'm not really picky with food as long as it smells decent. Something posh I guess. WITH LOTS OF BOOZE TOO.

1) Da Vinci
2) Alan Watts
3) Satoshi Kon
4) Chopin
5) Luciano Pavarotti
Da Vinci can eat anything he's from the past so no modern bull shit about diets. Alan will prob eat vegetarian jive, I'll just use more cheese for him. Satoshi Kon will get a ear full for being my last living hero to die. Chopin will love some drugs for that belly of his and Pavarotti will eat me if prompted.[h=3]http://www.lucianopavarotti.com/[/h]

Chuck lives up here in Portland...I have met him at a book reading....he's kind of a dick actually...not to shoot down one of your heros or anything....very full of himself it seemed.
Yeah I met him once and he was an ass. He wouldn't sign any of the books for me.. and it was at a reading no less! I sold back my books to the store that day :/
My choices:
- Ludovico Einauldi
- Vin Diesel
- Leonardo Da Vinci
- Uwace
- Johnny Depp
- Ludovico Einauldi
- Vin Diesel
- Leonardo Da Vinci
- Uwace
- Johnny Depp
Whaaaat?! I have met Chuck at a signing (er, I meant reading, but he was also signing) also and he seemed really nice and personable at the time. His dogs were with him and he let me snuggle them and they jumped on me and licked my nose. He signed my book no questions asked and even personalized it for me. He commented about how he thought it was amusing that my first name sounds like the first part of his last name.
That's disappointing if he has since turned into a jerk.

Same as I usually cook for Shabbat Table:
A good wine
Home cooked Bread
Grilled Salmon
Salad
Soup
Stir fry with either chicken or beef
Fruit based desert
If a vegetarian were present, such as the Dalai Lama, I'd simply adjust (no meat, no onion, no garlic...)
Idk, I got a lot of mixed reviews and experiences from people. When I brought his books at the bookstore before the signing, one of the guys said that he was very funny and brings body parts of dolls with him to sign lol. But when I met him, he just seemed to be in a bad mood and really stressed out.
So I don't know really.. I've met some pretty rude celebrities. I'm sure it's a tough job to act excited when you're having a bad day... and then to do it in front of 1,000+ people seems exhausting.
Yeah, come to think of it, the setting probably had more to do with that than anything. It was in Portland, OR, his home town. And the book store he had his reading at is a very small one, so not a whole crap ton of people there. He was probably just in a better mood.
