Can I please pick two?? Please? Okay thanks!

Elvis & Jimi Hendrix

Elvis so he can clear up the theory that he's been dead & there were no sightings of him at fast food places in Memphis.

Jimi so he might be able to make more music.

It was Elvis - proving that he still lives via elongating your comment. (One which didn't exactly please him.)

It would come down bettween Chris Farely, and Phil Hartman.

Then again, if you count musicians, Kurt, hands down.

Timothy Leary. Okay, so he was not exactly a rock star, but he was still sort of an "entertainer," and I think he'd be really pleased with today's Internet and also today's techno/dance music, since he did express an interest in the latter (AND computers) back in the 80s and early 90s.

That's why it would be interesting. He would have to get around it somehow. He might not even make anymore movies, but I doubt that.
How would he go for all these weird graphics or the no stereotypical love theme that every movie has nowadays?
teatree
(reply to anoddoblivion) posted 6-Aug-2002 11:41am  
How would he get around all the open mouthed tongue kissing that you see in the movies now? You didn't see any of that in any of his movies!

I have finally caught up on my emails, but saw nothing from ya. You still interested? (I hope I didn't delete it by accident, there were quite a few deletes.) Let me know by email - and send some general info on your history.
You're guaranteed to like this guy, if you meet with him. He's the best kind of employer to have.

Not too sure really. I mean if Marilyn Monroe were alive today would people feel the same way about her that they do today?

If Celine Dion died then I would re-animate her for diabolical reasons. Like maybe we could come up with new and ingenius ways of sending her back to her creator. and then re-animate and do it all over again.

Hmmmm.....perhaps Aaliyah, or Lisa Lopes because they were so young. Maybe Buddy Holly, but by now he'd be old. I'm not sure. Then there re always people like Kurt Cobain, Elvis, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin,. I think I'd rather bring back Aaliyah though.

I just looked at Advanced Stats, and, this is weird, but every single person who voted this survey bad was a woman. And actually, looking at all my recent surveys, women have, in general, reacted badly. Is it me? Is there some kind of weird vibe I give that just makes many women not like me? It would certainly explain a lot of things.

Harry Chapin. He was not only a great storyteller, songwriter and entertainer, he also had a great social conscience and tried to get others to care about what was happening on this planet. I truly feel that if he were still around today, many of the problems we have would not exist. He would have done something in the beginning of the problem to stop it in its tracks and change it into something good.
