Sir, I respect your opinion but obviously you don't live in San Francisco. You haven't been as lucky as I to have seen her at the armory.

She's very cute and seemingly bright, this is true.

I didn't realize she makes art: http://www.karibyron.com/

OK, I'll have tea with her.

"...and here we find the...digitalpriamte...in its natural habitat...."

Yeah, he'd be absolutely fascinating.

Terry Pratchett is another person on my list.

Can we no find some Yanks?

Yanks is boring....
(but I did post Tom Waits, Johnny Cash and Hunter Thompson.)

How about Thomas Jefferson?

Or Malcolm Gladwell would be interesting, or Daniel Dennett.

Man. They're dead already. The stench would put you off your tea for sure.

Waits, Cash and Thompson would all be interesting.

Better catch old Tom while he's still kickin'

I think Tom will be around for a while. Most of his kicking these last years has been around suburbia, from what I've gleaned from interviews.

Carl Sagan, but he's an obvious choice. I'd be interested in meeting many former American presidents: anyone on Mount Rushmore could no doubt hold a fascinating conversation. Andrew Jackson, too. Alexander the Great or Marcel Bigeard or Eddie Rickenbacker or William T. Sherman or Robin Olds would be an education, but they'd no doubt demand something stronger than tea. Isaac Newton would be interesting, but I don't know if he would be a great conversationalist. Maybe Tycho Brahe instead.

David Mamet. We'd talk about hats, of course.

Do you think he'd insist that his wife join you two?

Who am I to dictate tea terms to a genius? I'd be happy to drink tea with his lovely, talented wife as well.

As long as she knows something about hats.

Mamet and I both recently bought hats from the same guy. And yeah, the similarities pretty much end there.

It has long been my unaccountable desire to sit down to tea with Ben Wallace, formerly of the Detroit Pistons.

That's the only one on my list that I have had a drink with. It was not tea.

That'd be a do-over, then.

Yep.
