Who would you like to have a drink with..??
 
Just re-stumbled on this picture I snapped of a photo I found hanging on the wall in a basement hallway of an Air Force hospital...

Every time I look at it, I think, man, would it have been cool to walk into the room where these guys were hanging out and have a drink and B.S. for a while...

Anyone else know of an interesting small group of people that really did get together and you wish you had been invited ??

When I was five I met John Wayne on a movie set while he was filming in Bend Oregon. He saw me standing off to the side and came straight over to see me and say hello. It was said that he could be found in the local stores buying white bread and lunch meat at the end of the days shoot still in costume. Very Cool Dude.

No thanks. I like to sit in a straight chair, facing the wall, alone in a dark room when I drink.
The screaming disturbs others.

Anyone on this board would be interesting to have a beer with, I think. We may not always get along, but we do seem to pull together in a clinch.

I was lucky enough to have dinner and a couple of beers with Norbert Singer & his wife in Charlotte NC at the Porsche parade a few years ago. I asked a questions about his favorite races and he was looking bored. I am sure he gets the same questions all the time. So I changed the subject and asked him about his children. He lit up and his wife sat foreword. I have to admit I really wanted to talk about racing but I was actually polite and listened about his daughter and son.

I slammed beers with Tony Lapine who was head of the Porsche design department at the time. I leaned to never try to keep up with a German drinking beer. We drank every St Pauli Girl in the place. We had to switch to Heineken.

I would love to share an evening with Isaac Asimov.

I took an elevator ride w/ Charlton Heston, did nothing for me. Also flew back from LA with Chevy Chase as seat companion. He covered his head with a blanket and went to sleep, uncovered when the wheels touched down at JFK.

Guess I just come off as antisocial.

The Apostle Simon-Peter of the Bible: I bet he'd have some cool stories to tell that didn't make it into the book. Adam: One question-what was it like before all the stuff hit the fan?
