Dinner with Strangers

I was recently asked whom I'd like to meet if given the chance. I had to think about it...so many choices! I mean, seriously- we got the reality garbage I love (my pick would be Caroline Manzo of Real Housewives of New Jersey) and the reality not-so-garbage I love (I'd pick Spike Medelsohn of Top Chef). But real people? Okay.

I wish Grace Kelly was still alive. She'd be my number one. But her spoiled daughter ruined that one. Thanks, Stephanie!

Ouch. Too soon?

Anyhoo, I'd pick Lauren Bacall. She's the epitome of style and grace to me. We witnessed her falling in love with Bogie in "To Have and Have Not", where she taught Steve to whistle: "You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and...blow." Mee-OW! She knew how to be sexy without taking off her clothes or being vulgar. Love that era.

But Lauren probably wouldn't want to meet Rags. Rags can be a tad vulgar.

So my second pick is Jenny McCarthy. We're both from Illinois, we're both GORGEOUS (okay, okay...she has a little edge over me) and we're both funny as hell. At least we think we are.

Whom would you like to meet???
