Dinner party at 8pm?

Question

Who are the '5' people dead or alive you would invite to your dinner party to make'6' at the table at 8pm and why?

Answer 1

1) Reggie Miller - to discuss him coming out or retirement

2) Malcom X - I would like him to see the changes in the world since his death.

3) James Patterson(writer) - He is so versitile writes from the prospective of male and female black and white without offending anybody. Would like to meet the real man.

4) Richard Pryor - The man is a true genius

5) Amelia Aerhart - So she could let us all know what happened to her. And so I wouldn't be the only woman.

Answer 2

I asked a very similar question several months ago. I just typed in 'Your last meal. Which six people, living or dead, would you invite to share it with you?' I did add a clause which said 'You can also choose a chef and a piece of eye-candy, but they can't be guests'. I had more than 250 replies, all of which were very interesting. I didn't put my question under Etiquette, though. (Actually, can't remember what I put it under now).
I am 56 (male) and was brought up to know that when an invitation says 'Dinner at 8pm' you always arrived at 2 minutes past. It would be interesting to collect together the 'rules' that applied in those days. (My mother, dead now, would go to the town wearing gloves but no hat, but never the other way round; another rule was 'no jewellery in the morning, one piece in the afternoon, and as much as you like in the evening'). She went to Roedean and girls who came from 'trade' families were frowned upon - you had to come from the professions. All of this now seems a million miles away, but there is still something I like about it ...
