July 19th, 2010 3:35 pm
My brother..I haven’t seen him in ages.
July 19th, 2010 5:19 pm
I’ll stick with someone living, otherwise there would be way too many choices. It would be great to have the President, Barack Obama and his family, but dealing with the Secret Service (and what’s so secret about them any how?) and the media would be hellish, so no to that. That goes with pretty much any political figure as well as any actor or actress, or entertainer. Hmmm, that really narrows the field a bit. I would say just about any soldier fighting in Iraq or Afganistan. That would mean that they would get to leave that area, if only for just a short while.
July 19th, 2010 5:39 pm
I would invite my Grandmother who passed away…She I know would make homemade rootbeer and I would make her “spudnut” donut recipe and we would just catch up.
July 19th, 2010 5:57 pm
I’m going with a “fantasy-never-gonna-happen” guest. Soooooo for your pleasure, my special Enjoy Your Deck guest would be: Benjamin Franklin.
Now don’t laugh and think pudgy, old Ben. Apparently Ben was the life of whatever party he attended. The ladies loved him, he told fantastic stories, he wasn’t afraid to drink or eat (obviously) and was an extremely intelligent person. You could laugh, dine and talk with him all night. Wouldn’t we all love to have a well-rounded guest like Ben. Today everyone would ask for his cell number.
July 19th, 2010 6:29 pm
If it could be anyone, not matter how unlikely, I’d choose Jon Stewart. I think his take on politics in brilliant, and I can just imagine the laughter that would ensue.
July 19th, 2010 9:47 pm
My mom!
July 19th, 2010 10:17 pm
My mother. Only family I deal with
July 19th, 2010 10:40 pm

July 21st, 2010 3:05 am

I’d have to go with Rachel Maddow — now only is she smart, witty, and well-informed on current events (which would make for awesome deck conversation), but she mixes a mean cocktail. So she’s my first choice of deck guest for sure!

Well not to be morbid, but it would be my parents who passed away a few years ago. I’d love to spend an afternoon talking to them.
But if you’re looking for a celebrity or something, I’ll say Paula Deen (the cook) because she’s hysterically funny, down to earth, and could do the cooking for me.
July 24th, 2010 11:29 am
