1. Pick a single person, past or present, in the film industry who you'd like to have dinner with, and tell us why you chose this person.
While there are all sorts of good looking actors I suppose I could put in that spot, in the end actors can be pretty self-centered and I'm not young, fascinating, exciting, or gorgeous enough to hold their attention. It would be an exercise in feeding an ego that I wouldn't want to partake in. HOWEVER, I would love, love, love, love LOVE to have a beer or three with Joss Whedon :
and if I could consider him also a part of the film industry
Neil Gaiman:
2. Set the table for your dinner. What would you eat? Would it be in a home or at a restaurant? And what would you wear? Feel free to elaborate on the details.
There is a place my aunt and I went to visit over Christmas called Jemez Springs, New Mexico. It was Christmas Eve when we drove through and everything was shut down except for the Los Ojos Restaurant and Saloon. It has really good beer and burgers (mine was with swiss cheese, black olives, and mushrooms). The counters, stools, benches, tables, walls, floors, are all old, worn, smooth wood that creaks with any movement. Men in cowboy hats and Wranglers sit and sip mescal and beer next to boys in baseball caps as they all watch the old tv behind the bar. The waiter is the bartender. Rifles and antlers decorate the walls and the bathroom door hinges complain constantly. No one would know Joss or Neil there, and if they did, it would be low key. No one would care.
We would either go there or maybe the Little Bear Bar and Saloon in Evergreen, Colorado. Either way, it would be beer and comfort food. We'd all be in jeans and casual. Walking shoes so we could stroll around afterwards and chat while the food settled.
5. When all is said and done, select bloggers to pass this Meme along to:
Yeah, not going to do that. I hate it when people do that to me. But if you want to do it, you can.
