If you had to be stranded on a desrted island for one whole year. What famous person would you pick to stay with you? This person would have to be there for the entire year and would share the house with you.
If anybody around here is anti-butter, it's not me. But the question is about famous people. It's a hard question because you don't know what they're really like. But it can be from any time period. And guys quit sucking up. Butter is super fine, but I said a famous person not notorious. But I will admit I would take Butter over any actress any day.

You neglected to say that! Okay, there are a lot of dead famous people I would consider... Tesla Einstein Kit Marlowe Dorothy Parker Merlin Charles Baudelaire Jorge Luis Borge de Sade
That's a tough choice. The ones that come to mind immediately are Caligula, Bette Davis, Dorothy Parker, Aristotle, and William Shakespeare. Or The Rock.

Caligula ..... I guess that close enough tp Straight Up ....
Viggo Mortensen (is that how his last name is spelled?)
It has to be a man because a woman would eventually grate on my nerves. Viggo looks good clean or dirty......scruffy faced or clean -shaven. He more than likely can carry on a decent conversation and if I want him to act a certain way...he can. He can be a cowboy or a hippie artist ....the list goes on. Nice package and able to speak when spoken to....and he can read.
I bet he looks great in nothing more than a stragically placed coconut secured by palm frond strands.

Caligula was a Roman emperor, after Tiberius and before Claudius. He was seriously, literally crazy but by all accounts (the Gore Vidal movie aside) he was brilliant. He was ultimately killed by his own men, mainly due to his lunacy. I'd just want to talk to him about what and why he did things during his reign. It would probably take a year to do that. I'm fascinated by ancient Rome.
