Question #16

If you were to have a dinner party and could invite ANYONE from past or present time, who would you invite?

Why?

I would invite my Father and Tom's Father ... both deceased ... I would like my dad to meet Tom and Tom to meet my Dad ... and I would like our fathers to meet each other.

I met Tom's Dad but he didn't live to see us get married and I think he would have enjoyed the wedding and party a great deal!

My dad would have been happy to see me finally married to a great guy ... and he would have enjoyed the wedding and party, too.

I'd also invite my brother David, who is also deceased and whom I miss very much.

My daughter, she's having the "my mom isn't perfect thing" and has decided not to speak to me. It's been since last November. Very painful.

I would also invite my sister Sharon who passed away 27 years ago and Christopher Salin who passed in a skydiving accident and changed my daughter's life forever.

Ok so now I'm sad. Next question.

I think we all would just absolutely love to have the people that we love dearly and have lost to be at our Dinner Party.
I would also include Jesus - Soooo many questions to ask him.

Guest List:

Attila the Hun (want to see his table manners)
Gandhi (he and Attila make a good dichotomy)
Nietsche (will be be Being or Nothingness?)
Ben Franklin (he was so cool)
Marie Antoinette (she only gets cake- assuming she does not lose her head over the invitation)
Herman Goehring (he can bring the beer).
Mata Hari (is she really all that sexy)
Tokyo Rose (someone to yell at and tell to shutup)
My Parents (both deceased, I kust want to see them again)
They all have to bring their swim suits, so this will be a pool party and cook out.

I'd have all of my grandparents -- all deceased. I only knew one of them -- my grandmother on my mother's side. The rest all died before I was born.

Both of my grandfathers - didn't know one (died when my mom was in college) and the other died when I was 15. Both were phenomenal, influential men. I would love to have just a smidgen of their wisdom!

Delrene. And I'd ask her what it was like...was it what we expected...and why did she come back to take the dog?

From the present- I would invite all the Fewls and we'd eat, drink and be merry. Our conversation would be interspersed with zany and bizarre Fewlisms and we would laugh until we cried.....
From the past-it would be my Dad.
He would be so thrilled to meet all his grandchildren again and witness their fulfilment with spouses and babies of their own.
It would offer him the happiness he richly deserved and rarely found.

Cindy, your answer pulled the heart strings....
I am sorry for your pain.

I would want to invite my Mimi. In the last two years since she passed away I have thought of a million things I wish I could have had time to talk to her about.

I would invite Jesus and my Great Grandma whom we called Big Grandma. I was 15 when she died and I avoided her when she got sick because it made me feel uncomfortable.
