Which Celebrity would you like to meet

Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin. - Tim Vine.

Batjac was the name of John Wayne's independent production company, formed in 1952 as Wayne/Fellows Productions. When Wayne and producer Robert Fellows ended their short-lived partnership, Wayne changed the company's name to Batjack, named after a fictitious trading company in Wayne's 1948 film Wake of the Red Witch; his secretary misspelled the name "Batjac" on company documents, and Wayne didn't bother to correct her, so the name stuck. Batjac produced 30 films between 1952 and 1974, and because most of them were owned or licensed by their distributors, many were released on VHS (and eventually, DVD) under normal contractual conditions.

Dead? Churchill.

Alive? I'd actually like to hang out with Matt Groening or Seth MacFarlane. Maybe even Seth Green.

Did I mention I'm a geek?

We used to have a list on the wall of my JROTC classroom back in HS that was basically "the world according to Marines". Two that always stood out-

"Actor who should have been a Marine- John Wayne.

Marine who should never have been an Actor- John Wayne Bobbitt."

For some reason a thought just popped into my head concerning this thread-

"If they'd asked me 10 years ago, I'd have said the Romanian Womens Gymnastics Team..."

I need help. :cry
