These people are all very inspirational people and they are and were people to look up to, I love all of Rachel Vincent's books, and made me burst with creativity.

  • Uncle Mitchy KayFood: As they always say dessert is a dish best served first (Or is that just me?). Anyways, start off with some cookies or icecream what could go wrong with that? Then I would serve the most exquisite scrambled eggs, yours truly from genuine American farms, and along with that comes some chicken. Yeah, chicken that sounds good... then the guests and I could have a lengthy discussion on one of the most unimportant questions: "What came first the chicken or the egg?"
    Which reminds me...

    the Guests would be Stephen King, Barrack Obama, Billy Graham, Morgan Freeman, and Bill O'reilly. I mean come on who wouldn't want to hear all those people talk about what came first?
