Definitely Robert Howard. The man died way too young and Conan is such a legacy. Everytime I read him I wonder how much more he would have written.
Because of the humor in his books. Somewhat dry and misanthropic (if you read into it) but always insightful.
I would love to pick his brain over a pint or two!

Ha! Was in Atlanta three weeks ago on a quick trip and wondered how to reach you.
Will be in Houston tonight. Orlando over the weekend.
Maybe Derek will buy me that beer.[/quote]
Where are you going to be in Houston? You flying into IAH or Hobby?
My ten. number 1 is far ahead of the next 9. The last nine are in no particular order.
- Jesus
- Apostle Paul
- Moses
- King Solomon
- King Arthur
- Martin Luther King Jr.
- Gandhi
- George Washington
- St. Augustine
- Martin Luther
How about the ten people you would not like to meet? If I actually met them I would probably pound their face in.
- Satan
- Hitler
- Muhammad
- Obama
- Any Grand Wizard of the KKK
- Jesse Jackson
- Al Sharpton
- Mitch McConnell
- Harry Reid
- John McCain

Now Martin Luther would be a very, very interesting conversation. I didn’t think about him, good one.

Drink and conversation:

Drink and 2 minute boxing match.
Jesus - Tap Water
Buddha - Mai Tai
Martin Luther King Jr. - Grey Goose Vodka
Thomas Jefferson - Mad Dog 20/20 (and make it a street fight)
Cochise - 1 shot of Jim Beam

Jesus did drink, John the Baptist did not… just pointing that out…[/quote]
I think the point is that he can turn it into wine.
[/quote]
I like the idea everyone is cool with me wanting to fight Jesus :-)[/quote]
I’d pay to see that. What would you do if he knocked back a couple of shots then just out of the blue sucker punched you like a seasoned pro?
I’d be too flabbergasted to really do much.
[/quote]
It’s why I made it a 2 min boxing match. The only one I think would be a easy fight is Buddha.
Jesus the man worked with hands, built homes, fished with nets on the ocean and beat a group of gamblers out of a temple. I think he was tougher than the movies made him look. Plus he would heal me after.[/quote]
I feel like you’re just going for shock value here.
- My Dad
- Arnold
- Hitler
- Einstein
- Nietzsche
- Babe Ruth
- Socrates
- RA Salvatore
- Billy the kid
- Capone
I have a question. I have seen Hitler come up multiple times. Why would y’all want to sit down with Hitler?

The man was obviously a monster. Not everybody on my list are people I actually like. Regardless, Hitler is a huge piece of history and I have a lot of questions for him. Mostly, how could you? and things like that.
