Alright, I rethought my list a bit just to please deception.

1. Brian Dawkins (heart and soul of the Philadelphia Eagles)
2. Kobe Bryant (huge Laker fan, enough said)
3. Bill Gates (surprised nobody mentioned him, it would be nice to get to know him and take a look at how he lives)
4. Dave Chapelle (funniest man in America, if I meet him hopefully I will convince him of making a season 3)
5. President Bush (I would LOVE, and I mean LOVE to know what is going through this man's head)
 
1. MJ
2. KG
3. Dave Chappelle
4. Marion Barber and Laurence Maroney (they are the same person basically)
5. Jessica Alba

in no order

I did.

BTW, I'm going to switch Lebron James with Johnny Depp.
 
im surprised no one else is saying jessica simpson. shes amazingly hot! i love her! lol.
 
But, she's such a dumbass. It's not like the list is name the top 5 people you'd like to have sex with.

u should win poster of the year for that. and btw, the stephen hawking choice is arguably the best choice of all. i would imagine speaking to hawking would be like speaking to the greatest scientific minds of the last 500 years, all at once.

and a general comment to all jbb posters- athletes are some of the dullest people alive ( intellectuallyand socially), most are very anti-social, don't believe the hype.
 
It's kinda depressing to think how many people I'd love to meet are in fact gone now

But in any case, I picked the one person from each major interest category of my life that I'd love to sit down and chat with.

1. Bob Dylan - It was really, really hard to narrow this down to just one guy, but I'm hoping that 'ol Bob would have the most to tell me about music and life with music, all that good stuff.

2. Terrell Owens - Maybe it's the writer/reporter in me, but if I could have an exclusive chat with any sports star, I'd love to be the one man who would actually ask T.O the hard questions, not just buddy up to him like Michael Irvin and any other loser I've ever seen interview him. No one ever just says: T.O, what makes you so unbelievably selfish, and yada yada, and I'd love to do that. Then again, my interviewing of him would only further glorify the media circus already firmly attached to his hip, so maybe deep down this isn't who I'd want to talk to. Oh well, if I couldn't live with myself knowing I'd talked to T.O, I'll substitute Ron Wolf, the GM of the Packers during their great run during the 90s and into the first few years of this decade.

3. Doug Peacock - Long story short, he's an auther (a damn good one), a storyteller, an activist, and maybe the only other person on the planet who likes grizzly bears as much as I. I'd love to pick his brain, and maybe take a hike somewhere a couple hundred miles from anywhere up on the Continental Divide.

4. George W. Bush - For many of the reasons I gave for T.O, I'd love to let the prick journalist in me take him out back for a few good licks. Again, I might not be able to stomach the realization of being face to face with him, so I'll settle for a chat with Russ Fiengold, who I probably could talk to if I really wanted to, I just haven't felt the urge to go through that much work to do it. Maybe someday.

5. Pete Townshend - This is sort of a catch-all person to talk to, because I think he could give great insights on music, and also, like Bob Dylan, explain without the cinematic B.S, etc, what things were really like in the late 60s and early-mid 70s in America (yeah, I know he's British, but he was touring around, God, gimme a break
wink.gif
). I think that was about the most interesting time period in American history, and I'd love to have the perspectives of a pair of great musicians who could explain what things were like. There are probably better people who I could find to ask about all that stuff, but they're either dead or probably don't remember much of it

1. Coach K - In my opinion, the greatest basketball coach still coaching. I would love to watch a basketball game with him and just listen to him discuss it from a coaching standpoint.
2. Condi Rice (current SoS) - She is one of those people, that when she talks, people shut up and listen. Her brain for politics and the world is probably second to none. I would love just to learn from her.
3. Colin Powell - If he decided to run, would probably be the next President. Would have been the Republican choice in 2000. Might be one of the smartest men alive.
4. Jennifer Gardner - Always loved her
5. Mel/Shape - haven't met either of them in real life yet. Suprising...
 
No order.

Bono
Johnny Depp
Barack Obama
Bill Clinton
Steven Spielberg

Obama is a glaring ommission from my Top 5. Replace Jessica Alba with him on mine. Incredible person.
 
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Chutney:</div><div class="quote_post">But, she's such a dumbass. It's not like the list is name the top 5 people you'd like to have sex with.</div>

ummmmmm, i think your overreacting. i didnt say anything about wanting to have sex with her, and shes not that big of a dumbass, although she does have her moments (often).

Well, you said you'd meet her because she looks so good. So, I'm not sure how interesting that could be. Would you just stare at her the whole time? Because you can do that on your computer.
 
Didn't put much thought into it, but here's a few people I'd like to meet in no particular order.

1. Michael Jordan
2. Mark Cuban
3. Guy Ritchie
4. Jim Brown
5. Bill Gates ... only because I want to see the inside of his fortress, if anyone has a jetpack it's probably him
 
On an off note, I hate Jessica Simpson. You gus do know that MTV threw her extra $$$ to act stupid, right? It drew better ratings.

ok, my bad, i overreacted, lol. i tend to do that online. sorry. yeah, b/c she looks good, but i'd like to get to know her personally and stuff you know.
 
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">On an off note, I hate Jessica Simpson. You gus do know that MTV threw her extra $$$ to act stupid, right? It drew better ratings.</div>
word. You guys know she's actually very smart right? Believe it or not, her IQ is somewhere in the 160s.
 
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting authentiq:</div><div class="quote_post">word. You guys know she's actually very smart right? Believe it or not, her IQ is somewhere in the 160s.</div>

actually i didnt know that. i had a pretty good idea that she wasnt as stupid as mtv made her out to be. 160 is a genius iq. its not that i dont believe you, but whered you hear that?
 
It was in an article in a magazine I read while I was waiting for my haircut. I forgot the name of the magazine.

I know her mother didn't like how MTV was portraying her either, so she made it public, as well.

No, but I think her dad might. He has openly come out and said he loves Jessica's tits.
 
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Shard:</div><div class="quote_post">Jessica Simpson has huge breasts.</div>

I concur with Sir Shard's observation.

Shard spreaks the truth.

If there's one thing I've learned in the last 3 years of being in a catholic high school it's that book smarts have no correlation with commons sense (and definitely not street smarts). I wouldn't base someone's intelligence off of a test score or school grade, though I don't doubt that MTV wanted her to act like a dumbass since then their audience could relate to her.

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Jessica Simpson has huge breasts.</div>
Good analysis.

a few observations...

-hunter selected colin powell as one of his picks; here's two anecdotal things about him that i think exemplify the contradiction that is him: (1) at the 2000 republican convention he received the loudest cheers, however, those cheers quickly abated after he brought up affirmative action (a liberal ?) (2) he's one of the architects behind shock and awe, which is designed to replicate the after-effects (mostly submission) on japanese people after hiroshima and nagaski (pure evil?).

-bob dylan is somebody i would wanted to speak to in the 60's but these days he's a rabid evangelical.

-stephen hawking is on my list now, i'll give u castro for yourself. to that end, david suzuki is another dude that i wouldn't might speaking with.

-i was suprised nobody mentioned john mccain or muhammad ali
 
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">david suzuki is another dude that i wouldn't might speaking with.</div>

David Suzuki paid a visit to my school last year. The dude is rude as hell and swears quite often, even though he's in front of students. He's quite...stingy? I guess that's the only word I can think of. However, I don't blame him. Coming into a school with a bunch of 14-18 years old and talkin to all of them, interacting with all of them, it's got to have a strain on his mind, especially since he is so old. But, he is a really easily peeved guy. He snapped twice at some students when he was making his speech for quite small reasons.

Not everyone is the persona that you see on TV...but the guy is quite intelligent though, even though some of the solutions he presented in order to save nature were quite unorthadox. He blamed things completely irrelevant to what's actually causing the problems if i remmber correctly.
 
1.) Dr. Albert Hofmann The father of LSD. Because of his wonderful "invention" he has changed the lives of so many, including myself. He is truely one of the few people that has affected the world for the better.

2.) Drunvalo Melchizedek: Spiritual teacher. A man full of wonder, mystique and of course knowledge. Try the link, it's hard to explain him.

3.) Alex Grey: A mystic artist whose art has created a visual image of what life truely can be.

4.) Danny Carey: The drummer for the rock band Tool and a mysterious and very informative person it seems. He has a fascination for the occult like myself, I'd love to pick his brain on such things.

5.) Noam Chomsky: The most sanely refined man in the world. A leader, an activist, but with a brain to back his reasoning. A uniter for the human spirit.

I don't mean to sound elitist but you people are really fucking shallow. Jessica Alba? Athletes? Sure, I'd love to shoot hoops with Kobe and or have a nice night with Jessica but I'd also like to grow as a person. Pick up a book, sheesh!
 
^^What is with you guys? Like you said, pick up a book, you can read all about any of these people. You are telling me you wouldnt like to hang out with jessica alba or something for a day? Or chill with mj? You picked a musician, is that any better? I doubt everying is sitting here planning out there perfect top 5 people so they can learn somthing meaniful. I, like many it seems like, just picked 5 people off the top of my head, that i would enjoy spending a day with.

bob dylan would be cool, he is from minnesota, and i've been to his high school like 15 times (Kevin Mchale went there too).
 
^ Agreed. Meeting someone doesn't have to be a deep life altering conversation. I can form my own thoughts and if I want to ask someone about them then I will. I would like to meet Jessica Alba because she is bomb... so what? I may not learn anything from her but I would be able to talk to probably the hottest girl in the world in my opinion. I'd always remember it.

And athletes, most people look up to them on this forum. Why not meet a hero? It doesn't make you shallow, it makes you a normal person that would enjoy simple delights... just because some people aren't huge intellectuals that would orgasm over meeting an old man who wrote a thesis on cloning or something doesn't make them shallow. It makes them not interested in the same things that you are. It's like me saying... why wouldn't you want to meet Jessica Alba? Are you gay? Get a libido people!

Criticizing others' preferences and putting yours above theres makes you shallow.
