If you could host a dinner party inviting four people from history, who would you invite and where would the party take place?

The question may seem a little redundant, but Day 2 was about dinner with those presently alive. Now I get to think about who I’d like to have join me from history. It’s tough to whittle down the list, and I imagine my answer could change if you asked me the same question an hour from now. There are others I would love to add to the list, but this morning I’m thinking of people who would make fascinating and enjoyable dinner conversation and who I imagine would enjoy one another’s company.

  1. The rail-splitter, the bulldog, the southern boy, and the writer. Nice mix.

    1. Well, Jesus was actually the first person I thought of, but opted not to include because:

      1) Having an on-going personal relationship with Him, He’s present at dinner with me all the time (sans the physical body), and in a manner of speaking He’d be present anyway with the whole Omnipresence thing He’s got going. So, I figured I’d use his pick on someone else (Mark Twain got it).
      2) I didn’t want to be too obvious and do say what everyone expected 🙂
