August Blog Challenge Day 12

Today's challenge is to document a person I would love to meet. This is a tough one as there are so many that I think would be really interesting.
On the existential level, there is Buddha, Jesus, Abraham, Mary, etc.
Historically, it would be interesting to meet Queen Elizabeth I, John F. Kennedy, George Washington, Franklin D. and Eleanor Roosevelt, etc.
Artistically inclined people would probably include Georgia O'Keefe, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Mary Cassatt, Leonardo daVinci, and the list could go on and on.
Literature people I would like to meet would possibly be  Shakespeare (if he really exists), Jane Austen, Mark Twain, Christopher Moore (who is still alive and I possibly could meet), Margaret Atwood, and so many others.

However, what I currently need in my life is laughter and lots of it. So I would like to meet funny people such as:
Jim Henson - He gave me so much joy as a child and still does today.

Gilda Radner - She was lost way too early. I wasn't old enough to watch the first seasons of Saturday Night Live, but I've seen her skits in reruns and she was an amazing comedienne...and how excited was I when I came across a picture of her WITH Miss Piggy!!

Tina Fey

Maya Rudolph

Amy Poehler


Yeah, the last three are there because I came across those pictures with those quotes and they made me smile. And, just for good measure:
