If you could set aside one week (M-F) and invite a diffent person to dinner each night for a meal and a chat whom would you pick? As a Christian I would of course make Jesus one of my choices. But since I don't know any Christians would not want to talk with Christ, I will leave him off my list. My 5 in no particular order are:

1) Steve Wynn

2) Albert Speer

3) Traudl Junge

4) Frank Ragano

5) Dr. D. James Kennedy

Who would you invite??

[2BNTV]

1. Jesus -so many questions to ask.

2, Abe Lincoln - The most dominate figure of the nineteenth century. IMHO

3. FDR - The most dominate figure of the 20th century. - IMHO

4. Steve Jobs _ His thoughts on how he led the revolution of toady's media via Apple.

5. Babe Ruth - A fun guy who saved baseball.

There are so many others like musics George Gershwin, Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr.,Henry Ford, Alexander Graham Bell, Carole Lombard, Ulysses S. Grant, etc.

Sorry, don't recognize any of those names.

[2BNTV]

Steve Wynn the CEO and owner of The Mirage hotel n Vegas.

[redwitch]

1. My dad. He died when I was 12. I would love to talk with him as an adult and hear his thoughts on the world of today. I think he would have liked a lot of it.

2. Martin Luther King, Jr.

3. Jesus and Mohammed. Yes, both at the same meal.

4. Adolf Hitler. To begin to understand a man who could create so much evil might help stop evil at another time, another place.

5. Ghandi and Mother Theresa again at the same table.

And so many more -- authors, musicians, politicians, scientists.

As 2BNTV said Steve Wynn is CEO of the Mirage, also of TI, The Wynn & The Encore in Las Vegas. He also built and sold the Bellagio.

Albert Speer was Hitler's personal architect and Minister of Armaments. Has written 2 books about his experiences.

Traudl Junge was Hitler's personal secretary for his 3 final years.

Frank Ragano was the attorney for Jimmy Hoffa, Santo Trafficante & Carlos Marcello.

Dr. D. James Kennedy was pastor of the Presbyterian Church in Ft. Lauderdale for many years, also the author of many books.

I vaughly remember a book written by Frank Ragano who describe his dealings with Santo Trafficante, etal, "Mob Lawyer". It's an interesting book.

I just had finished looking up who the other people were. Interesting choices.

I would come if Giada DeLaurentis was cooking. I like the way she cooks and very easy on the eyes too.

She is the grand-daughter of director Dino DeLaurentis of Serpico fame.

If you get a chance read the book "When The Mob Ran Vegas" by Steve Fischer. There's a very interesting chapter about Frank Sinatra's ownership of the Cal-Neva Resort in Reno. That will answer a lot of your questions. And yes..she did!

Mack,
I would have guessed you may have wanted to invite John Stewart.

I think I'd enjoy the conversation with all of them except for Ramsay. As far as their cooking, their talents would be wasted on me. I have a very plain & unadventerous "Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes" taste.
