And who would I bring back from the dead? George Washington, so HE could run for president in '08. He'd probably call for another revolution if he saw how big and despotic the government's got.
John Lennon (sorry, not an original answer) my dog, Akasha, Jerry, Abe Lincoln, Linda McCartney, my gramma (although she would be more than 100 years old) my Brother in Law, who died when my dh was 11, and I never got to know him. He was, they tell, a great guy.
whoever i brought back from the dead would probably beat me over the head and ask me what the hell i did for! i think that's the main thing. i don't know any dead person who wouldn't rather stay that way then be brought back to live in the kind of world we have now. although maybe a few would be willing or even interested in trying to play with it. do i think bringing anyone back would actualy make any big difference about anything? no. existence does not automaticly empower anyone, no matter how smart, wise or who the are or might have been in some other existence. whatever empowerment anyone might have or have had, came about through the circumstances of the life they lived that brought it to them, some of which they might have choosen, some of which others may have choosen for them, and at least some of which, were a matter of pure dumb luck. =^^= .../\...
my dog friskey who got chewed up by another dog when i was 14 the ferral rat that drowned in a bucket of paint i accidently left open (he's burried in my garden) many stray cats that have died of old age. tibetan saints who died of injuries sustained at drapche all the victums of bush and hitler and malosovich and pol pot probably those of alexander the 'great' too. =^^= .../\...
I'd like to smoke a blunt with Tupac and Bob Marley. I'd like to take xanax with Genghis Khan and Al Capone. I'd like to trip with Jimi Hendrix and Syd Barrett. I'd like to take Ecstasy with Ghandi and Mr. Rogers.
