Gone with my personal favourite author and one of the best post-war writers the world has known, the incomparable Haruki Murakami.

Enjoyed that.

I'll just use the WC, no biggy

The pictures you are getting are fantastic -- Larry David in the late70s/early 80s is hilarious.

I put Stephen Fry down as a comedian, as that's probably how I tend to think of him, but realise that some may well see him as more of an actor, maybe even a writer? Am happy to change the category if it ends up being too controversial anyways.

He's also a comedy host and sketch comedian, A-list as a comedian, C-list as an actor, so happy to accept it. We don't have an artist category any more, do you want Leo down as a wild card?

Ah shite, no artist category anymore? I should probably pay more attention ey! Aye, probably wildcard him then. I'm half tempted to ask if I can take him out completely, but he'd probably be a pretty interesting dinner guest.

No one else has picked so you can swap him out if you want, it's fine with me.

Swapped him out for Nic Cage. The obvious Leonardo substitute, if I do say so myself.

Just picked a guy who totally got off. He is not a starter guest, but a finisher guest.

Dennis Reynolds is a great pick. Who wouldn't want to spend a few convivial hours with an uber narcissistic possible serial killer?

Probably would have undergo background checks with the number of times the CIA tried to off him...

He's definitely a 5 star dinner guest.

I reserve that designation for those who can speak 4 or 5 languages, have written major pieces of theory or history, and have been out of Philadelphia.

Can you imagine the first time he asks anyone about the Eagles or Phillies and the silence in the room?   He needs his friends to be funny --- sunny.

Dennis and Brando would be screaming at each other before the main course. Of course after that, Brando would be too distracted to engage so maybe it'll be all right.

Yeah, it's interesting how even three picks in you can get an idea of the vibe of most of these. Trend's definitely looks like the most philosophical evening so far.

Ply them with weed, alcohol, and fun -- see what gems they unearth.   Enjoying just the thought of it.

The Office was decent I guess.
