My thoughts on this one are a little more modest. I'd just like to go drinking with him.

I hope you're a big drinker!I've been unwilling to get involved in this discussion, because I really don't know what I would want to do. But it's an excellent thread.I think, in the end, I'd just join your drinking competition.All the bestMarcus

He was only used to wine

Excellent idea, comrades!!! May I join? Amazons know the way of Dionysos...must have *intense* music for the atmosphere, along with dancers, good food, and...well...more imagination...and wine . Great fun!! Party time ATG style.

Bloody hell, Marcus. Not a competition!! I'm happy to go for it with both hands chucking it back, but not Macedonian style. Don't their winners usually drink themselves to death in a sitting?Tre, wine is good with me. Always have preferred it to the other stuff. Don't think it should be a white though. Can't really imagine Alexander and co getting stuck into a chirrupy Pinot Grigio or a tarty Chardonnay, or worst of all some nasty little Muscadet. How 'bout a monumentally big-bodied but silken Barolo?Thalestris, the Amazonian / Dionysian approach sounds dangerously exciting and lavish, both of which are good with me. Hope the dancers won't be dancing a waltz though. And what exactly would be on the menu?

Well, if you don't have the guts to make it a competition, I'll just go head to head with Alexander, then :-)Unfortunately, I won't partake of the red wine, but I'll be happy to match a gin and tonic (not too much of the tonic, mind) to every krater of full-blooded red wine...All the bestMarcus

I think he would absolutely love blasting off into space! I like the idea of seeing him look out the window of the shuttle and seeing exactly what the world looks like and how big it is.
I could also see him having quite a bit of fun with the concept of anti-gravity... ~Arete
