I want to have tea at Balmoral with Queen Elizabeth and two invited guests. The Dalai Lama and Kevin Spacey.

I've met quite a few. Most were uninteresting.

I'll settle instead for a conversation with Ray Odierno.

Can't really think of too many. I would like to shake Charlie Daniels hand,and sit and chat with Willie Nelson.I would like to have met and talked to and perhaps spent an afternoon fishing with Ronnie VanZant .

I am more admiring of your average blue collar everyday heros........

I would like to meet and talk with former Predident George W Bush and his wife Laura. I think they are a wonderful couple and did a lot more for America than they receive credit for.

Same here. I would have to add Colin Firth and Lewis Hamilton to my list, also ;-)

I do wish I had been able to meet Brian Clough, a big time hero in my home town, before he died.

I have to agree ...Brian was a "salt of the earth"man. I recently rented from Netflicks a DVD about his life as a manager and there are some classic Brian Clough quotes. Always honest in his words and true to his word.

Dolly Parton - she seems to be so friendly and down to earth.
Family member did a family tree, and Bill Clinton is a distance cousin even though I've never meet him in person...
