[nunthewiser]

K Rudd and Mr Burns



Will supply headgear and boxing gloves.

 

[Garpal Gumnut]

Fibonnaci
Isaac Newton
Doc Halliday
Amarillo Slim Preston
Pythagoras

Just a dinner to talk about numbers and chance.

I'll stick with my selection as well. Since we all live on different continents we always have a very noisy interesting dinner parties, loads of talking and laughing. The last one was in an old gite in the Loire Valley last year. Lots of local food and wine and great company, and the cooks left Freund for dead!!!!

 

[MRC & Co]

Jesus.
Julius Caesar.
Ronaldinho.
Sugar Ray Robinson.
George Soros.

I would also like to make room for Stephen Hawking.

 

[Harleyquin]

Have just been outside having lunch on the patio and watching thousands of bullfinches which come in this time of year. Put out a little seed and they made wonderful dinner guests, their antics are wonderful to watch.

 

[GumbyLearner]

I just feasted on some Bison ribs with Gumbydog.

 

[Julia]

I would only like my children and their families as, like most modern families, we are scattered far and wide and are able to get together so rarely.

Well, Harleyquin, if we can bring people back from the dead to attend this party, we can surely bring your family from the far reaches of the globe.
Ditto you, Kennas.

Julia might have to ask Sigmund Freud to do the cooking for you lot.

Its a dinner party.

Not true. It read "who would you invite for dinner"

I said me mum because I don't get on with her in the slightest but wished that I did, and perhaps inviting her for dinner would make a difference. But anyway, enough about my problems.

Here's a revised list -

Salvador Dali
Ornette Coleman
Hunter S Thompson
William Burroughs
PJ O'Rourke

Ah, Fishbulb, another fan of the beat generation.

Why not invite your mum to dinner anyway? Never too late to build bridges.

Ever the entrepreneur, huh Nun? We could sell tickets for that and turn the whole venture into a very profitable affair.

I just feasted on some Bison ribs with Gumbydog.

Well, Gumby, since you have chosen not to invite human guests, you could bring Gumbydog, as long as his table manners are up to scratch.
I suppose then we will need to invite Garpaldog or gg will be offended.

Keep them coming. Some really interesting choices.

My Grandad, because I never got to know him as he died when I was a young kid

I am aiming to be the "Don King" of dinner dates when i grow up

 

[pacestick]

sydney pottier

 

[DocK]

Michael Buble (to croon to us)
Johnny Depp (to look at)
Michael Parkinson (to entertain us with limitless gossip)
Andrew Denton (as above)
Jamie Oliver (for some pukka tucker)

 

[Garpal Gumnut]

Salvador Dali
Ornette Coleman
Hunter S Thompson
William Burroughs
PJ O'Rourke

Fishbulb, mate,

I think Hunter S Thompson might belong better with the mob below, especially if he brought some of his stores and weapons to liven the night up.

gg

Just a slight variation on the theme Julia.

A dinner party guaranteed to start off polite and couth, plenty of grog, and a guaranteed call to the coppers to break it up after midnight.

Paul Keating
Wilson Tuckey
Damir Dokic
Abdul Nacer Benbrika
Gordon Ramsey

(Benbrika gets to choose the coffee and mints)

I of course would moderate and stir if things quietened down at any stage.

Bring both Thompson and Burroughs and it's drug fueled mayhem. Too good to miss.

 

[Dowdy]

I'm a big fan of entertainment and investment heads up, so I would invite:

Robin Williams
Marilyn Monroe
Ainsley Harriet
Lochlan Murdoch
Robots

Funniet **** i've heard all day.

I'll probably go down the same path, minus robots.

Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy

I forgot to include Jack Kerouc!

Anyway, yeah my mum would insist on cooking. She's a great cook too.

 

[Blitzed]

For me....

Russell Brand
Ben Elton
Pauline Hanson

 

[bryan_palmer]

Bobby Fischer
Anatoly Karpov

 

[MrBurns]

How about Hitler and Steven Seagal (half Jewish), a bottle of scotch and a handgun.
