CB's Question of the Week

[cabenson]

It has been a crusizazy week at CasaCabenson and I have not had time to post a ?OTD.

This question is courtesy of Mrs. CB because my brain is still not functioning properly.


If you had your own talk show, who would your first guest be and what would you ask him/her/it?

Easy. Sting

I'd talk to him about literature, especially Shakespeare.

And I'd ask him if he knew Patrick Stewart before being in Dune with him because PS was in the RSC probably at the same time as Sting's first wife. Six degrees and all that.

Dune was a stupid movie except for Sting in the little underwear and Patrick Stewart.

I would so totally have Eric Szmanda on, and ask if he'd marry me.

Because, really, he's beautiful.

Lauren Graham and I'd ask if we could shag. And I am not shallow at all.

My first guest would be W and I would ask him how he reconciles the fact that he is a discriminatory bastard when it comes to gay marriage and yet his daughter Jenna is having a torrid affair with a mysterious woman from central Ohio...

Goddammit!
This is becoming a bad habit!
That was me.

by W, I'm assuming the bush whacker, and where did you hear that Jenna was having a torrid lesbian affair? Is this mysterious woman married, with kids? why else would it be torrid?
Hey, and how come we don't hear about Jeb Bush's drug-addict daughter?
Maybe Jenna is having this affair with Newt's half-sister Candace? :-)
or maybe its with Ann Coulter HA!!!!!

It would depend on the type of talk show I have.

Political - Marie Wilson, president of The White House Project, a nonpartisan organization working to enhance the public's perception of women's capacity to lead

Entertainment/Music - Melissa Etheridge

Entertainment/TV - Lisa Rena; shallow interview, I just wanna watch her lips when she talks

Entertainment/Movies - Angelina Jolie, another shallow interview

News - Christiane Amanpour, CNN Chief International Correspondent

Jon Stewart.

Because we could talk about anything, or nothing, and probably still have a great time.

Plus, if I sucked as a first-time hostess hopefully he'd be good enough for the both of us. (I don't look forward to Jon Stewart-less Day 2)

I don't know what I'd ask him, but I'd love to sit down with Chow Yun-Fat. That would be sublime.

I would want to have Alice Walker and Christina Aguilara on together. I would want to watch the combination of the literary sage and the exuberence of youth.
I would ask them if they would have taken the same paths in their lives knowing what they know now about the outcomes.

WOW! I'd love to be in the audience!

I'd want Anne Moody to be my guest, and I'd ask her for her thoughts on how civil rights have changed/ not changed since the 60's civil rights movement. She wrote her book "Coming of Age in Mississippi" in '69 (I think) and I thought it was an amazing book.

I caught a little bit of The Al Franken Show today and he mentioned he'd love to get Dick Cheney and Nelson Mandela in the same room and ask Dick about voting to keep Mandela in prison when he was a U.S. Representative. I'd like to help that happen.
