Today, we start a new entry series as we look at ten dinner guests we would love to have at our table for dinner; we got this idea from both "Washingtonian" magazine http://www.washingtonian.com and the NPR show "The Dinner Party Download" http://www.dinnerpartydownload.org which runs on radio stations such as WUNC-FM (91.5-Chapel Hill, NC) http://www.wunc.org
Among our guests would be "Washington Post" social life columnist Alexandra Petri http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/compost/ who wrote a vintage column about the art of losing.
The other people who made our top ten include: 1) Ambassador Rudolf Bekink of The Netherlands (pict. top), 2) Film director Sofia Coppola (pict. center) and 3) Cong. Jared Polis (D-Colo.). Here is our top ten:
1. Rudolf Bekink
2. Sofia Coppola
3. Cong. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va; even though we don't tend to agree with him).....
4) Gillian Jacobs of "Community"
5) Stephan Pastis, comic strip guy
6) Alexandra Petri
7) Cong. Jared Polis (D-Colo.)
8) Parker Posey, independent film actress
9) Zeynep Tufekci, UNC professor, expert on Turkey
10) Roy Williams, UNC men's basketball coach
