Ok, Here's The Rules !!!!

**Uncle Frank** · Mar 26, 2004, 06:28

If you could have the skills or talent of a REAL, LIVING,
celebritie, not their body or physical surrounding or wealth, who would you pick?? By the way, it would only be for 1 month and then you go back to plain ol you.
Singing, acting, a sports skill, a money making skill ??
Would you be able to handle going back to normal after the month is up??
I would pick Robin William's quick wit and ability to make people laugh ! I love hearing people laugh and he seems to never run out of comedy!!

Imagine a mind powerful enough to do advanced theoretical physics yet being unable to wipe your own ***; what a contrast. I'd love the ability to see the universe as he does, and I think being a prisoner in my own body would also humble me.
Including dead people, it would be Bruce Lee.

EscaFlowne · Mar 27, 2004, 05:16

I would pick bruce lee.
The ablitiy to use your body as a weapon and be at total peace from the wisdom that was bestowed upon you.

**Uncle Frank** · Mar 27, 2004, 05:23

READ THE RULES !!! Has to be a living person!!

Frank

EscaFlowne · Mar 27, 2004, 05:30

opsie!!! sorry frankie!! Dont get all excited! I dont know where we put your oxygen pump if we need it now! hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... then i pick....

Jay-Z so i can have beyounce!.....meep!

**Uncle Frank** · Mar 27, 2004, 05:41

Frank

kirei_na_me · Mar 27, 2004, 05:44

I remember when I was in college, that was 'in' thing to do. Go around sucking that out of balloons.

Anyway...back to the topic. I can't decide.

Winter · Mar 27, 2004, 06:52

There really is no one living who I'd like to live as.

Lotsa dead people though.

I would love to be Erik the Red. Just because...well a lot of reasons.

I'd like to be Ivan the Terrible. Again, a lot of reasons.

Then I would actually like to be Hitler. After occupying Poland, I'd decide to call off the expansion, give their country back and say "Just kidding!" Then run around in my mountainous mansion screaming profanities at lillypads.

kirei_na_me · Mar 27, 2004, 09:30

I don't think there's really anyone I would like to be either. No one alive impresses me that much.

All the people I'd like to be are dead. Anais Nin, Pamela Courson Morrison(just to know what Jim was really like), Mae West...and lots of others that I can't seem to think of right now...

**Uncle Frank** · Mar 27, 2004, 09:47

they did in life!! Think of all the talent that death took away from the world at too young an age & time in their career!

Frank

justin · Mar 27, 2004, 09:52

I would want to be the greatest man alive, ME! Life's just too sweet to be dreaming about being someone else.

If I could be one person who has already passed on it would be my Grandfather. He was my hero, enough said.

Illaparatzo-sama · Apr 2, 2004, 15:26

I would be someone who makes lots of money. I dunno who. And have 'em ship it all to my house. Stephen Hawkings is hilarious.

Christine · Apr 5, 2004, 22:34

I would wanna be Kaoru cause' he plays guitar so cool. I wanna learn how to play guitar that well to. But it's so friggin' hard!

**playaa** · Apr 5, 2004, 22:39

Hmm I think it would have to be myself, I don't think many famous people alive these days are THAT great. But givin the choice of ANY person it would have to be a samurai or maybe confucious?

Maciamo · Apr 6, 2004, 00:04

Hey guys, haven't you read the rules ? It's just for one month ! Don't miss the opportunity to get into someone's mind then come back to yourself. You could become Osama Bin Laden, know where he is and what he is really responsible for, then after that you judge if he merits being denunciated, and if so you arranged to get a few million bucks reward from the US government for telling them where he is.

You could be in Bush's mind and commit suicide.

(as long as we return to our original body sound and safe), or even better, tell the world all the things he has been hiding or plotting with his pals.

Oops, I am getting a bit too political. Could get into some very knowledgeable person's mind and learn what they know that could be useful to you. Having a good head is some kind of talent. Given the oportunity Frank gives me, and knowing I have only one month, I'd use the best of my time to remember as much as possible. But then I could also spend my whole life wondering who among 6 billion people is that person into which mind I want to enter, and eventually die from angst. So I could just take it easy and enter my ideal girl's boyfriend mind and enjoy the relationship for a month.

Possibilities are almost endless. Imagination is the only boundary.

Not bad Maciamo, never thought about that Idea!

ashuri2 · May 6, 2004, 06:24

i'd want to be my mom, so i could read her mind, find out what the heck's going on in that place, and then come back to my own body so that maybe, just for once, we could actually get along.

lol, funny. personnally id rather be leif erikson, btw are u scandinavian too?

and as for whoever posted about wanting too learn guitar...iv been playing since i was eleven so a Long time. the trick is too find a classically or professionally trained teacher who CAN read music and have them work you too the bone. You learn too read music in month-1, play music in year-1, theory shortly after, and spend the rest of the LONG years realizing you aren't good enough too write music like mark knoffler, doc watson, elton john, sting, clapton, and the rest. its depressing and if your still interested go for it

. playing guitar like...whoever it was you said (sry if im wrong but im assuming hes a metal, punk, or jpop/rock player that can play fast like satrianni, vai, or johnson) is easy...writting great music isnt. like i said, if this doesn bother you, or all you care about is just playing fast riffs-go for it, its easy!

and as for who i would be...bush's wife so i could give terrorists detailed descriptions of his habits and bodyguards

. more likely i would like to be the director of area 51 just so i could know what the hell it is they have their-funny, i never thought i really cared until i just thought about who id like too be. if that doesn work then maybe the final descendant of an ancient tribe that holds great secrets<<yah, thats the one *winks.

Flashjeff · May 13, 2004, 17:58

Me? I'd want to be Donald Trump, just so I can feel what it's like to be filthy, stinking, insanely R-I-C-H!! The Donald rules!!!!!

EscaFlowne · May 13, 2004, 20:43

With that said....I would also like to be bill gates. I would sign over partnership with myself[escaflowne] where i will be in charge of his...Fiji, jamica, hawaii, trinidad, bahamas, puerto rico, and all other island microsoft coperate operations....

what....so I want to get rich like him and just work in the islands.....

....you would too!
