Here’s an interesting ‘game’ that Charmaine, from High Desert Diva has passed along. Answer the questions on your blog, and let’s see what you have to say…
What if I could meet someone in the art world to chat with?
* That’s a really difficult one to narrow down to a small handful. I can think of loads of interesting artisans. Off the top of my head, Maplethorpe (I’d like to know what made him tick), Munch (I saw The Scream, and it’s much more compelling in person), Litchenstein (comic-book at first glance, dynamic story in dots) and Rembrandt (seeing the pigments in paintings this old and the depth of the colors is just mind-boggling). I’d love to have a little talk with all of them, and more.
What if I could have one wish granted for the benefit of all mankind?
* Guess the obvious answer to me would be to immediately stop global warming.
What if I could travel anywhere in the world?
* Well, anyone who knows me, already knows this answer; France. I would love to see France someday. Not just Paris, but all of it. Top to bottom.
What if I could live in a period other than the present, for 24 hours?
* I would like to see dinosaurs roaming the earth and stay away from them when they were hungry.
What if I could makeover three areas of my body?
* Wouldn’t that be swell. Since the car wreck 2 ½ years ago, my idea of what’s important about bodies has changed a lot. Before the accident, I would have liked smaller hips, a bigger bustline and to be taller. Now, since pain matters, I’d love a new neck, no more excruciating headaches…so I guess a new head (I probably needed one of those before the wreck anyway) and arthritis-free shoulders.
What if I could become an animal for 24 hours?
* I’d love for animals to get a chance to outlaw fishing, hunting, etc. So, if I could be an animal for 24 hours, I’d organize an uprising.
What if I could bring someone back to life for 24 hours?
*I’d like to bring back Nicole Brown Simpson, and let her say a few things to O.J. I’d provide the axe.
I love your choice of artists to meet. That would be a wild dinner party if they were all present! Thanks for sharing your 'what ifs', interesting ( & some surprising) answers. I had guessed the trip to France though. Hope that wish becomes a reality :) xx

Hi I just love reading your blog. Thanks for the visit. Oh I went to France last year I was a crazy tourist with my camera. Oh to see Renoir, Monet, Van Gough oh the originals was so breath taking. It's a must see. Really the french people are very polite we just don't get it. I can add a little crown and glasses to your photo if you like! Denise

Hi Karen,
I see you've been busy and your imagination seems to have blossomed. I always knew you were "special", now we have the blogging proof. Hopefully, we'll be able to meet up again someday

How very interesting, I love peeping in and learning a little bit more about my friends. I am sorry about your pain, but if I win the Lottery I can pay for Paris...my treat.
I want to say a BIG thankyou for your lovely messages whilst I was poorly, how kind and generous of you thinking about me while I was ill, and cheering me up, you are a great friend, it meant a lot thankyou.
Hugs for a special weekend.

I'm a bit late on this, but I just wanted to say I loved your answers to the questions. Also, after you've brought back Ms Nicole Simpson could you film the resulting actions for the rest of us to enjoy!
