Which author would you most want to meet and sit down and have a beer with?

(If you don't drink beer, which author would you most want to go to lunch with?)

Douglas Adams. Because then he'd be alive and could be writing some more!

Stephen King. Love his books, love his editorials. He has to be a very interesting, smart and funny man to spend some time with.

Hunter Thompson. Before he shot himself; well, maybe even now if I could bring him back. I'm sure he'd be rank and rotty and all, but I might do it. He was just that cool.

Bukowski or Poe(it'd be more like 6 shots followed by 6-8 beers)... you know.. if they were alive. Hell i probably wouldn't make it through that evening alive anyway.

I would love to meet Mikhail Bulgakov. I could go for some ice cold vodka and caviar with him. I am a fan of his Master and Margarita. No, it has nothing to do with the drink, either :D

Edgar Allen Poe would prob be my first choice. tho it might be a little scary once that guy was drunk...he'd pretty much scare me sober so drunk who knows.

and it'd be like 8 shots...im not a beer person. ha and then i'd have to chain smoke like a pack of cigarettes...cause that's what happens when i drink.
