| Mr. Bach |
my bowl of coffee three times daily,
then in my torment I will shrivel up
like a piece of roast goat."
J.S. Bach from the Coffee Cantata
Today in the break room, I brought up a question that has been puzzling me for a while. A popular parlor game/ice breaker is posing the question "If you could meet anyone alive or dead, who would it be?" However, there are many missing parameters that trouble me. For instance, if you chose to meet Joan of Arc, would it be necessary to be fluent in Medieval French? Or what if I was eager to meet Queen Victoria only to find she was scandalized my my loose hair and visable ankles. Where are am I meeting this person? What place? What century?
You see the trouble.
