Mark my words

Who I'd like to meet:

You. First you can read my blog to REALLY see what I'm all about. Then we'll get some coffee, and together we'll go say hi to Bono, who is just one degree of separation from almost everyone else I want to meet. For instance, I'm sure Bono will be glad to introduce us to fellow 2005 Man of the Year Bill Gates. Then its off to a photo-op with Robin Williams, Bill Belichick, Billy Bob Thornton, the late Bill W and Esther Williams. Then maybe we'll stop in on Billy Mills (the famous Native American Olympic runner, ...also the name of my non-famous nephew), Billy Williams, Billy DEE Williams, William "Refrigerator" Perry, Billy Graham, and Bilbo Baggins. Hopefully Bilbo can take it from there. Certainly he knows John Tolkien (who I'll have to wait to meet, of course). But maybe he also knows John Updike, John Irving, John Cheever, John Sayles, Johnny B. Goode, John Flansbergh of TMBG (and the other John, if we have to...), John Cougar, John Hiatt (who should drag along his pal John Prine, since they're twin sons of different mothers), John Mayer, John Paul Jones (he can bring Plant but not Page,... Jimmy will just trash the place), Johnny Bravo (aka Greg Brady), Johnny Depp, John Malkovich, John Nicholson (aka Jack), Jack (of Beanstalk fame), Jackie Chan, John Walker Lind, John Cleese, John Hurt, Jon Voigt, Elton John, Olivia Newton John, John Lee Hooker, John Doe, John Waters, Jon Favreau, John Turturro, Jean Reno, John Leguizamo, Geovany Soto (Go Cubs Go!), John Madden, Tommy John, John Paxson (much nicer than M.J.), Johnny Unitas, Jack Lambert (Steel Curtain forever, Baby!), and Jonathan Papelbon (Red Sox closer and reknowned Irish stepdancer). Together with all these Johns, we'll raise a Johnnie Walker (Black, of course) and toast the Bills, Isabels, Nobel laureates, Willas, Arundhatis, Janes and the hundreds of other writers, musicians, filmmakers and leaders who inspire or amuse us.
