Greats as GUESTS
Dinner Parties of the Month |

|
On THE FIRST FRIDAY NIGHT each month, you are invited to share some of the talk as Barb and I throw a dinner Party. Three unlikely “guests” show up from all who’ve ever drawn breath. Faintly we're reaching for a Parisian salon of the 1800's, where assorted persons pleased and educated each other. We simply make a stab at answering the eternal 'What If' questions...

Join The Party: Comments (1)
Archived in:  Our regular live blogging schedule needs to be altered. The plan is to return on the evening of October 3. We apologize.
Absorption in the coverage of the Olympics and the two Conventions, inordinate amounts of travel, repeated hibernation of this darn computer -- those elements led to our inability to coordinate the visits of our hoped-for Guests. In the meantime, accounts of past parties can be found at our Archives. November, 2007 with basketball's Michael Jordan, history's Margaret MacMillan, and idlers' Tom Hodgkinson; December with www's Tim Berners-Lee, transistors' Jack Kilby, and TV's Lisa Kudrow; January, 2008 with China's President Hu Jintao, painting's Lucian Freud, and biology's Elizabeth Lloyd; February with Joan of Arc, Rev. Billy Graham, and Live Aid & Live 8's Bob Geldof; March with Hollywood's James Dean, racing's Danica Patrick, and bowling & Microsoft's Chris Peters. Other greats, our grandkids, were visiting us on April's First Friday, so no celebrity came knocking. May with three music-makers: country singer Kenny Chesney, composer Anna Amalia, and classic baritone Dieter Fischer-Diskau. June, with baseball's Jackie Robinson, Nobel Prize's Muhammad Yunus, and international cooking's Perween Warsi. |
