There’s at least ten more that would be fun to hang with. 🙂

I probably shouldn’t be locked in with other people for long periods of time for their safety and/or mine, but in the event I had to:

- **iiandyii** because we seem to share the same views on many things;
- **Angua** (assuming dormant members are available) because she’s funny, intelligent and a mean cook, although I may have to ban the swords from the house; and
- **John Mace** because even where I disagree with him he usually says something worth reading.

I’ll go with **WhyNot** , **Nzinga, the Seated** , and **Sampiro** because they are among my top ten Dopers I would like to meet and have dinner with someday and I think the four of us would get on swimmingly. Or at least they would and I could just hang out and wish I was one of the cool kids.

Oh, so many to choose from.

**swampbear** (gotta have another cook besides me)  
**Kopek** (We did a pub crawl together in Pa.)  
**anyrose** (Moommm! she’s poking me again!)

It would be an epic Beer n’ Bacon fest.
