people i'd like to meet

pros must outway the cons or nay!

laura hurwitz

she's flippin' brilliant!
eri and my constant, yet always shocking, love affair with the english language have aided in my voyeuristic addiction to life of this mother of 6, wife of one, and english teacher to many. her ever-evolving whit and incredibly wacky posts remind me of how awesome and frustrating teaching can really be.

I'm not quite sure of the cons, nor would i like to face them but.... if given the opportunity i think i would date her semi-famous/humorous son just to meet her and share her air.

Though I've never seen a recent pic of her i also believe her to be incredibly beautiful. I have however, seen a college pic and all 6 of her little ones. they are all quite fab... sooo, i'm thinking she and her hubby are also quite "pretty in da face".
ok. so, now that the pros are clear...

this is were the con could worm it's way in. (garrr) if my theory proves right, because they are so pretty they could also be unforgivablely stoosh or simply indifferent. dunno. but i've gotta find a con right.

mark twain

he was a clever one. i dunno know if i'm reaching here but his name alone was genius. i never learned this, which is me tooting my own horn here and/or ironically labeling myself as the off side of astute, but his name was just that, his second label his other identity.

he's also armed the world with stunning quips and winning ideology.
thus, enters the con...he was soo cool that he might simply think me a ninny of a negro and get more hung up on the fact that i could read (...this is often my fate in these time-travel dream sequence). still i could never deny that, as my girl Jy and the great Krazy Kat say, "that nigga is a winner! he really is."

he, like many of his time, spoke in circles and riddles which made him tré "ace". this guy would have made an excellent lawyer or a super confusing, yet, grand advisor.

"Total abstinence is so excellent a thing that it cannot be carried to too great an extent. In my passion for it I even carry it so far as to totally abstain from total abstinence itself."

zachary levi aka "chuck bartowski"

√:another jew

i'm unsure of his contribution to the world aside from being part of the great movement of unbelievably adorable nerds. it doesn't really matter though because the pros point towards him being my husband. i claimed him quite a while ago but therein lies the con of course. once finally together and after having produced the halle berry's and lenny kravitz' of the world(dream sequence again), he's probably be a chronic snorer and has wolf feet.

DAVE CHAPPELLE and tracey jordan yes... jordan.

in the words of eri the great. "I vote yes," on all counts.
but not at the same time, that would be overwhelming.

nick kroll

Pro:
he's hilarious
he's a jew
i'm cuter than him
his "mcdonalds worker"

con:
he might be high out of his mind and forget our wonderful encounter.
he might be unforgivably offensive thus resulting in my shanking his pits. cuz as a jew he is most likely unbelievably hairy and schweaty.
i love him to the point where i might hold his face or pinch cheeks if he spoke to me.

mccain's wife

pro:
to see if she's real and if her creepiness lives up to it's standard.
con:
could be as disappointing as a yale education when you're our ex (g.w.b.)

jim henson

too much to get into. but that man was tré genius.

upside: to pic the brain of a world reknown artist.
downside:
i may never let my let my kids enjoy the grand american toddler past-time of watching sesame street.

seeing amy poehler and will arnet interact with archie. their son.

upside: great advice to raise a funny kid.

downside:
they might as me to watch him.

bill hader

we'd have good times...till he realizes i'm only staring at his gaps. yes. as much i love him you could use his mouth as a bike rack.

carl meyers
this kid i adored in 4th and 5th grade.

upside: jewish
adorable
bright
adored me too

downside:
his parents were "recovered" racist...never quite got there.
he might be like me five 4yrs out of his 5 yr plan but going nowhere.
he could have developed his parents disease and no longer looks at brown girls.

quest crew

upside:
i want to learn moves
downside:
...but i might be a hopeless cause.

paternal grandad harold and his mom.

√: i could figure out how our fam got this way.
√: i see what gramma was like.
√: i could give pops some closer.

x: it could be a bit too much info. hmmm. family secrets and all. i think i have my fill.

maternal gramma's gramma.

√:i'd learn her name and story.
√:to find out what the hell israelis were doing in jamaica.
√: to find out what gramma was like as a child
√: to remember why i'm so blessed.

x: she might not be all that i ever hoped.

upon completion, i realize that this great list of "people i'd like to meet" , is not very diverse and that it could have been easily dummarized by putting... dudes and jews. hindsight, i tell you...
