If you had a choice to bring someone of historical significance from the past into the present time, who would you pick? What would you do with them?
I would bring back Beethoven (prior to his deafness) and take him to a Rock concert. I think he'll appreciate it.
Oh that's a good answer. I think he would too!
@ Klarawieck - That's a good one. I'd love to see him in the mosh pit.lol
I gotta serious one. Duncan Edwards, a footballer from my home town that played for Man Utd and England. He died as a result of the Munich air disaster in 1958. I'd take him to Old Trafford to watch Man Utd thrash Chelsea.
About Beethoven- seriously, I have this fantasy that I'm driving in my car listening to Dragula - Rob Zombie and he (Beethoven) appears seated in the backseat of my car fixing his hair and frowning as he becomes disturbed by what he hears. LOL
I know.... I know... I'm a little out there! LOL
lol. I think we could convert him. Get him headbanging to KISS. I wonder which member he would dress up like?
I was gonna say Thomas Jefferson, cause I think he'd be real interested in everything. He was a forward thinker and an inventor, so I think he'd find our modern world fascinating. Did you know he invented the first copy machine?
But then I realized that he'd also be disgusted, saddened and disappointed by what we've become. His worst fears for this country have become practically if not completely realized.
But then, it's not like he wasn't a wise man who had to deal with idiocy in his own time as well.
Still, I think the shock of discovering that Texas has shunned him in favor of John Calvin might be too much for his reincarnation, and it might just kill him!
So yeh, I guess not.
I'd bring back Marilyn Monroe and ask her waht sex was like with JFK! hehe
I have a better idea... Bring JFK back and have sex with him! You know... take the middle men out of the picture? or middle woman in this case? Why ask when you can know first hand
LOL oh I guess I hadn't thought of that! I was too busy thinking about how much fun it would be to gossip!
LOL no matter how good the company, gossip can't be better than sex! LOL
Oh sometimes it's waaay better and lasts longer too! hehe
LOL... Can you imagine if you go through all the trouble of bringing JFK back and then realize he is superlame in bed? I would keep a little bottle of Viagra on the nightstand just in case! LOL
