Fun Stuff > CHATTER
Who would you want to have a conversation with?
Caspian:
MacArthurs or any of the early Golden Dawn dudes would be great. Otherwise, seconding OWW's Crowley.
Otherwise, Jesus and James Hetfield. Oh, and Isaac Newton, that'd be rad. We'll throw in Bush Jr., too, why not.
I dunno, I admire a lot of historical figures but wouldn't really see a lot of point in talking with them. I'd probably just leave disappointed that they're not these supreme beings.
Thiefree:
Aww, that makes me sad.
I'm reluctant to meet a lot of my heroes because if they were in a bad mood and behaved a bit dickishly, I'd be devastated. The shine's already coming off my respect for Jeph ;)

No Timothy Leary? I think I might wanna add Timothy Leary to my list.
onewheelwizzard:
I figured Leary would be a little cliche. Besides, I think if I picked Robert Anton Wilson and Albert Hoffman's brains enough, between the two of them I could probably figure out a lot of what he'd have to say on my own.
De_El:
Cliché or not he did spring to mind as an interesting person to talk to, although, it's true, he spoke publicly enough and to enough other people that most of what he has to say could basically be gotten from other people. The converse is part of the reason I picked Salinger. But then again...fuck it, he's an interesting dude and it's not like I lose anything for saying I think he'd be cool to talk to. To shit some shit with him, and maybe if I'm ambitious have him hash out his ideas on big concepts and go in depth...I feel like actually speaking to a person about their own ideas, your resource is practically endless. It's the difference between writing someone's biography while they're still alive and trying to piece it together 30 years after their death.
