If you could invite any three people to dinner (dead or alive, famous, fictional, etc.), who would they be, why and what would the topic of conversation be?-courtesy of forum member Ames (Amy White). You can post your response (500 words or fewer)
Scarlett O'Hara - she has a way with the boys, and I'd like to hear what she has to say
Amelia Earhart - She is a self fulfilled lady, but where the heck did she go?
King Tut - One handsome young man with a lot of power
Scarlett, Amelia, and Tutankhamen on Dating and Relationships
Scarlett: Tut, darling. Do tell me what it is like to be married to your half sister, Ankhesenamun. I am fascinated, because here in the south, it is customary to marry a cousin, but never a sister.
Tutankhamen: As the sun rises in the sky, I could never love another more than Ankhesenamun. She is a dutiful wife, and even went along with my political plan to worship more than one God.
Amelia: Scarlett, do not listen to him. Women need to have their independence. We need to strike out on our own and accomplish things in our own accord before we even think of settling down.
Tutankhamen: That is an outrage. A woman's place is with a husband. I myself was married when I was a mere 9 years old and spent 9 more happy years with my wife by my side.
Scarlett: Great Balls of Fire, you two. Must this bickering continue? All the cotton in the world would not keep me from my Rhett. I'd bet the deed on Tara, that I can woo him back to me with a low cut frock.
Amelia: Tut, have you ever considered the fact that Ankhesenamun is not as dutiful as you believe? The only children she ever gave you were stillborn. Scarlett, that is why you can't marry siblings, dear.
Tutankhamen: My lack of an heir has nothing to do with Ankhesenamun. It was not in the plan of the Gods.
Amelia: Well, I can say that I waited until I was 33 to marry my George. And I never got to have children because my navigator, a man, was an idiot. He flew me right to my death.
Scarlett: Well, I have not Rhett with me because of a man. The whole while that Rhett loved me, really loved me, I was pining after Ashley Wilkes. He married his cousin, you know. Oh well, tomorrow is another day and I will never go hungry again, as God as my witness.
Tutankhamen: Who is this God you speak of Scarlett?
Scarlett: Fiddle dee dee, young Tutankhamen. It is God, of course.
Amelia: Well, I need to keep us on our current course. We are here to examine dating and marriage habits. Please let's stay on task. I think that men and women should be separate. Husband and wife should be their own people, individuals with their own dreams and goals.
Scarlett: Hey Amelia, did you notice how handsome Tut is in all of his gold? I bet he could pay the taxes on Tara.
Amelia: Forget about Tara. I want to fund an aviation school for young women. It is time we put the females in the air!!
Tutankhamen: Ladies, there is plenty of me to go around. I am already three thousand years old, I am not going anywhere. Meet me for drinks at 6, third pyramid on the right.
Scarlett: Well, Amelia. I think he likes me best. I am going to head over there early.
Amelia: Don't bother Scarlett. I will get there before you, I can fly.
