If you are to meet a celebrity or dead person who would it be?
How about Heath Ledger? That's hitting both birds with one stone!
Oh, too soon, CoyoteLongshot, too soon.
Actually, I'd like to meet Maynard James Keenan, the lead singer of Tool. I bet that guy has got some interesting stories to tell, looking at a lot of his lyrics.
Either him or Leslie Nielsen. Just to be able to say that Leslie Nielsen is my homeboy would be awesome.
Ben Franklin. I think he'd be fun to hang out with.
Maybe Jesus Christ. Less fun, but almost certainly an interesting experience – or maybe not Jesus but the disciples; since they are writers/storytellers, so it would be fun talking to them. Speaking of storytellers, add Homer to that list too. Of course, none of this would be any fun unless I understood the language they were speaking or they could speak English. If not, I'll just stick with Ben.
If we're talking more contemporary, I think Steve Irwin. He was a character, and some of my best friends (and my mentor) in graduate school were herpetologists, so I know we'd have things to talk about.
Don't take this as an insult, but I think it's funny when people think celebrities would be so neat to hang out with. They're just regular ol' people like you and me. If you meet them at conventions and such, they're actually quite boring. Which is why I enjoy meeting them at conventions, because it puts a big shock of reality into me. It tells me, "hey, these people are just like me."
In my past convention visits, I've seen Keanu Reeves, Angelina Jolie, Jude Law, Halle Berry, Frank Miller, Jessica Alba, Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, Lucy Lawless, Karl Urban, Ted Raimi, the entire cast of Firefly, most of the cast of Farscape, Hugh Laurie, Calista Flockhart….anyway, they were all pretty damn normal when I saw them. In fact, Angelina Jolie was so shy, you could barely hear her. She clammed up like a little girl and mewed like a kitten in the microphone. It was very strange; she was the opposite of her bold persona on the red carpet. …Keanu was…well, Keanu. lol!
