Dinner and Conversation
If you could take any blogger you’ve never met in person out for dinner, anywhere in the world, who would it be? . . . Where would you go? . . . What would you talk about?

I would take Charles Kirk, who writes The Kirk Report, out to Culver’s in Minneapolis (he’s from MN). He is a day trader in the stock market – but his blog is well read on Wall Street.

What I’d talk to him about would be:
1. How he does so much research so efficiently
2. How he set his office up for maximum productivity (just re-did it)
3. How he maintains this wonderful balance between working the market – and giving up on the day and going to play golf
4. How he ended up day-trading and moving to that from whatever job he had.
Now THAT won’t be your typical answer!
It’s a great question – thanks for asking it.

Hey, Scot,
Why not email him your comment? Or should I do it for you?
Liz
Actually, it would be better from you, since it will be so out of the blue. He has a contact piece there on his navigation area.
Thanks!
I wonder whether your link will trackback. I don’t think they do from comments.
Well, there are a bunch of people but most of them live so far away. But hey I’ll play along. I would go to Australia and visit Darren. We could go to a nice steakhouse.
Liz I’d take you out for a nice dinner but I’m sure my wife would get jealous 🙂
Here’s an Idea, Steve.
Bring your wife along. Let her bring a friend as well, because she’ll get tired of listening to us talk about blogs I bet . . . that is unless she has one too.

PS Everyone knows I don’t eat much. 🙂
My wife does not have a blog. In fact, she goes online to check her email every month or so and it is so bad she has to keep re-activating her email because it expires. That’s how often she goes online.
My wife is a Veterinarian so if you have a friend who can talk animals or even a doctor who talks medicine I bet we could convince her.
I’ll be making three leak links today for her . . . what’s her . . . in one hour. What’ s her name?
Jessica Remington 🙂
Gotcha!
Well, if you come around this part of the world, I’m up for making you some dinner 🙂
Whoa, AdLIb,
You’re not only smart, but you can cook! I like that! 🙂
I think I’d want to have dinner at Darren Rowse’s place and just get to know him and his family. And talk to him about being a dad. And changing diapers.
Easton,
That sounds fabulous. Melbourne is a wonderful city. I think you would like it there. Darren is a nice man. I bet you would learn a lot from him — I don’t know how well he changes diapers. 🙂
Probably Corey Doctrow. Every blog that guy touches turns to Gold and he has some really interesting ideas on open source content and marketing.
And I suspect he has a pretty good music collection!
