Who would you like to have a beer with thread reminded me of a mental exercise I was given by a friend.
You are having a dinner. Invite 8 guests. Assume that language and actual alive or dead status is not an issue. My list is changable. Today
Issac Newton
Benjamin Franklin
Galileo
John Stuart Mills
Enzo Ferrari
Julius Caesar
Leonidas of Sparta
Lao Tzu
 
Jerry Garcia
Sam Kinison
Howard Stern
Leonardo Da Vinci
My Father
Jesus
Steven Hawking
Clive Barker

These people would make for an interesting/diverse dinner convesation.:)
 
Lets see if I can come up with 8
Abe Lincoln
Sun Tzu
Aristotle
Dinosaur specifically a Triceratops

Well thats half the dinner party.
 
George Patton, Jr.
Robert E. Lee
Chuck Yeager
Wm. Shakespeare
Walt Whitman
Bill Wilson
Dr. Bob Smith
Marcus Aurelius
 
Issac Newton
Benjamin Franklin
Galileo
Leonardo Da Vinci
Michelangelo
George Washington
Albert Einstein
Archimedes

Yep, I'm a math and science geek..
 
Cleopatra
Mata Hari
Catherine the Great
Marilyn Monroe
Jean Harlow
Audrey Hepburn
Grace Kelley
Anna Nicole Smith

Assuming Anna Nicole Smith doesn't eat too much and Audrey and Cleo being skinny gals, we could all scrunch together and add Florence Nightingale and Ameila Earhart to the party.
 
Here's another lit based on a dinner revolvin' 'round unanswered questions.

Marilyn Monroe, "...was it suicide or murder?".

Michael Jackson, "What happened on your last day on earth?"

Osama Bin Ladin, the question I'd ask, "...regular or extra crispy?", then I'd throw the switch on the electric chair.

Jesus, "So how was your supper?"

The KFC Colonel, "What's your secret recipe."

Donald Trump, "Can I have a couple million bucks?"

DB Cooper, "...where's the money".

Enzo Ferrari, "...can't you make this thing go any faster?"

Bastid, "Are goats really a good substitute for companionship?"

Cliff Stamp, "What's the best knife?"
 
Hmmmm. While it might be a good concept, I'm not entirely sure they'd all get along though (I'd imagine strained conversations or erupting debates for some LOL!)

Off the top of my head though. . .

Dear Old Dad
St. Joseph (Jesus's "earthly" dad. I'll seat him next to mine. Both simple, salt-of-earth types)
Albert Einstein
Gautama Siddartha (THE Buddha)
Ernest Hemingway (the badass)
Robin Williams (the comedian)
