I've been at the Craft Services table with Jennifer Garner (wonderful lady), and Geena Davis ( total class Act), among others. Too many others to mention.

My wife is good friends with Tracy Chapman since college. I know, no big deal, but she invited us to a party at Herb Ritz's house and I sat at the dinner table next to Cindy Crawford. I was blown away at how smart and interesting she was. A year later I sat next to Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith and Jim Belushi. I was equally blown away by how uninteresting and boring they were.

No film or TV celebrities would be on my list.

The Dalai Lama would also make my knees knock.

Women that would have that effect on me are all no longer of this earth: Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn, Katherine Hepburn, Princess Diana and Mother Teresa.

Only one right now... Donald J Trump.

Because I'd like to make my own mind up about the sort of person he really is.
(Apologies for the semi political comment)

+1 for trump.

Edit: trump wouldn't make my knees knock, but would like to chat for a bit.
For knee knocking, probably charmane star.

Guys: It would have to be an engineer or car guy so we'd have something to talk about so Elon Musk although the conversation would likely only last 5 minutes so probably a let down. There are some interesting interviews with him on Wait But Why

Her: I've always had a thing for Elle MacPherson

Another +1 for Trump, I think he would be annoying AF in person, I think he is an over the top type A personality that would be overbearing, someone who has to make sure you understand he is the Alpha. I have met people like that in life and prefer to not be around them. A true Alpha does not need to project it so much.

I would like to be proven wrong, or confirm what I suspect.

If I could meet someone deceased, I would love to have met Hunter Thompson sitting at a bar somewhere out west.

Trump.
A person does not arrive at being one of the wealthiest men who has walked this planet w/o an Alpha personality...personality nuances included.
Many of the world leaders he has met with recently he had already met in the course of his business ventures.
Over 500 companies in 38 countries...who else has done that?
I'll start there and think of another person.

I'm gonna go with Valentino Rossi
BTDT, he was polite and gracious but he really wasn't into chatting. He'd prolly be better if it were a scheduled meet.




I can't think of any man that would make my knees knock. As for women an intellectual knee knock would be induced by Cecelia Payne (long dead now), a more carnal knee knock would be induced by Helen Hunt.

Too much, flat. I'm impressed.
Remember that thread a couple of years ago?...Name Dropping.
An excellent entry to that.

Don't get me wrong, that's pretty cool. I have some photos with Rossi, too, but I'm talking about sitting down with him over a glass of vino rosso and getting into his head a bit.
