    I dont know if this thread has existed before, but who cares.

    My three would be:
    Albert Einstein
    Frank Zappa
    Mitch Hedberg

    Please, keep your 3 choices famous. I dont want to hear 'I wish grandpa was alive'

    if someone says John Lennon I'll laugh a little to myself.

    if someone says Jim Morrison I probably won't be able to catch my breath.

    I know that somebody is going to say John Lennon eventually. I love the guy, but he was heading in a strange direction.

    being dead is probably the best thing for Lennon's iconography. had he survived he'd probably be almost as lame as Paul by now.

    haha I love Paul. We would appreciate him a bit more if he was dead, though because hes basically just a novelty anymore

    Mitch Hedberg, George Harrison, and Kurt Cobain, just to spite him.

    I'd ask what happened to him , but that would be inappropriate.

    Alright. So since they have to be famous:

    Mitch Hedberg I'll agree with your third choice (How did he die again? Such a talent!)
    Freud so he could psychoanalyze me
    Someone I could have sex with...like...I don't know, Simone de Beauvoir or Emily Dickinson

    I thought about Sextus Empiricus but that would be boring. If anything, Napoleon.
