Rav Hirsch(seemingly a popular choice) - I'd like a chance to clear up some things...

So...*sigh* you know, I actually have work to do...<br /><br />Some possibilities, and I'll probably think of more later (where I give two possibilities, the first assumes anybody, the second living people only):<br /><br />1) Hashkafic conversation dinner:<br />R' Hirsch, R' Yosef Soloveitchik, and the Lubavitcher Rebbe. Friday night dinner during the winter, so that the conversation can last well into the evening/ late night. Alternatively, a <I>seudat shlishit</I> with R' Aharon Rakeffet, Alan Brill, and G6's aunt-in-law (If we don't have a hard-and-fast ending time, we'll <B>never</B> end!).<br /><br />2) Theater chat:<br />Stephen Sondheim, Cole Porter, and Noel Coward. Alternatively, Stephen Sondheim, Jason Robert Brown, and Michael John LaChiusa. Sunday evening after a matinee performance.<br /><br />3) Family dinner:<br />My paternal grandparents <I>Z"L</I>, so they could see my children and I'd finally be able to sing all those songs from "Annie Get Your Gun" and "Carousel" with grandma that I didn't know back then. Memorial day/ Fourth of July<br /><br />4) To talk food:<br />Julia Child, Graham Kerr and Jacques Pepin. Better be on a holiday weekend (I'll need two days to prepare!).<br /><br />5) To talk kosher food: <I>Chol Hamo'ed</I> dinner with Jeff Nathan, Michael Gershkovich, and Levana Kirschenbaum. <br /><br />G6: for your dinner, what would you serve, and how would you decorate? :)efrexnoreply@blogger.com
