Because even now I still miss having him around What would I do? Introduce him to his teenage daughter (she was only 1 when he died) How would we spend the day together? Doing loads of stuff that we used to do. 10 pin bowling, laughing, talking, dancing, and going to our 'local' for a pint, just enjoying each others company. Clare United Kingdom (from mypace.com-no forwarding URL) I would spend the time with my deceased husband just chatting about things we never had gotten around to discussing because you always think you have more time. I would just spend the time anywhere peaceful. Doesn't have to be anything special just peacful for that precious 24 hours! AnglorDvl Phoenix AZ/Huntington Beach CA www.myspace.com/anglordvl Ohhh, if I had 24 hours to spend with anyone it would have to be Eddie Cochran. I've been in love with him since i was a little gal in pink ribbons and bobby sox. I'd sit at his feet and listen to him sing and play his guitar, especially for me. At the end of our time I'd look deep into his eyes, kiss his sweet lips and cry a single tear as I said goodbye to my dream lover. R.I.P. Eddie Cochran Voodoodoll United Kingdom www.myspace.com/leopardlegs As much as I'd like to let the devil on my shoulder wander on this, I'd rather have the chance to spend some time with my Dad. He passed away suddenly and totally inexpectedly three years ago while I was away on vacation and I never got the chance to see him one last time. How would you spend that precious time together? Talking, but mostly listening. There's always questions and insights that you put off asking for another day. If I had that day, I'd take advantage of it. At some point we'd have a game or 2 of H-o-r-s-e (he was a helluva basketball coach) and then sit around cooking chicken on a cinder-block barbeque, smoking cigars and tossing horse-shoes. Then wind up getting my ass kicked playing cards, drinking some fine Scotch. **Dave @ TK99** Syracuse New York www.myspace.com/radiojock It would have to be Elvis Presley. As he was the sexiest guy in all time. I would spend the whole 24 hours in his arms with his lips against mine. I'd have him serenading me in that time so I would just melt away and that would be the best 24 hours I'd have spent in my life. lol I know I'm dreaming. ha ha ha Dawn United Kingdom (from myspace.com-no forwarding URL) January 26 Anneka Svenska The 5'8" Swede was born in High Wycombe, England in 1976.

Q of THE WEEK almost coming to a close: (see Monday) Tomorrow will sew this one up. New one coming soon My father. He died when I was a baby. He was a mod boy, so probably go clothes shopping with him, get advice on life, bitch about boys, and play my guitar (he sang and always wanted to play an instrument) and smoke a fat joint. Interseting...I've heard that question before, but I don't think I've ever answered as honestly. x Jeanette (aka MOXY) California www.myspace.com/mzmoxy Nice to meet you :-) I had to think about that question for a while. At first I was thinking about Plato, Socrates or some other person from way back. I would like to bring them into our age, show them around and hear what they have to say about the way we are living now. Will it be a positive or negative opinion? Then, I was thinking about Jon Bon Jovi, because I believe that when he spends one day with me he will fall madly in love, we'll both divorce our spouses and live happily ever after. One can dream. And no, I won't tell what we will be doing that day :-) But I think that, although I'm not a buddhist, I would like to spend that day with the Dalai Lama at his place. I want to know what he does during the day and if he is really such a calm and peacefull person as he seems. I believe that he is a wise man and I would love to have a change to talk to him. I probably don't know what to say at that moment but who cares. Maybe I'll meet Richard Gere while I'm there and he will fall madly in love with me,... etc., etc. I hope my husband doesn't read this :-) Greetings, Henny Netherlands www.myspace.com/pynneh I would say my Uncle Chuck in Michigan. He is having his leg amputated tomorrow, (from his knee down). I wish I could be there with him. I could be there to make him laugh and just be there for him. He and the doctors' decided this would be the best thing for him, since he's been having so much trouble with it for so many years. He is my only uncle and we're very close. He's very positive about this. I would really appreciate it if you would pray for him and keep him in your thoughts. Thanks, Kathy Bissonette Los Angeles California I would go back with Led Zeppelin, and listen to their music and hang out with them allllll day. Courtney Paris France www.myspace.com/pinkthunder My boy, 'cos life without him would be a sad place, his dad for my boy's sake and my mates in the band, 'cos they are all my family... and my dad if he was talking to me! Tara Rez (The Duel) Camden Town London England www.myspace.com/theduel Carmelo. Why? 'Cause he's my main squeeze. What would you do? Make passionite love all day and night. How would you spend that precious time together? Far away from home, somewhere (anywhere) where no one knows us or could even bother us. Francis Hollywood Florida www.myspace.com/francis69 Hey Jonathan, ok my answers to your questions Chad Kroeger from Nickelback. Why? He's a nice guy and I'd like to get to know him better.

Jo Wales www.myspace.com/604_jo Jonathan, Much like you, I love to talk with people and there's a number of individuals that I'd like to spend a full day with. Present company includes Yourself, Jimmy Carter, Arnold Swartzenegger and Farrah Fawcett. Looking back in history it's my understanding that Thomas Jefferson knew everything there was to know in his day, to talk with him would be such a joy, but...number 1 answer at this time...Benjamin Franklin!!! He did so many diverse things, as I tend to do. If only you had a time machine with your questionairre! Thanks for letting me be heard, Dean Wirmer MD KALA, Davenport Iowa January 25 Alicia Keys One of the hottest singers today! The 5'8" R&B great is only 24-years old.

The Bling Witch San jose Costa Rica www.myspace.com/changingforthe better I would spend that day with my father. He passed away almost 21 years ago. I was a young girl and don't know much about him, his life or his family. I would spend that day asking him all the questions I've ever wondered about him, his life and his family that I never got to ask. I would absorb every minute of that time and every bit of that information. I have dreams about him often. In these dreams he isn't really dead he was just missing for a long period of time. The dreams are so real that it's such a heartbreak to wake up. Angelica Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/12angelica07 Joe Strummer Because I grew up with The Clash, and loved Joe's music.

Alex Duran Program Director KFRQ McAllen/Brownsville Texas Wow. OK, it took me a bit to answer this one for there are so many people I would love to have spent time with. My biggest would be my father. He passed 10 years ago and I miss him very dearly. I would love to spend the day like we use to when he had a chance to take time. We would mostly deal with the house and find something to fix or decorate. It brought us closer together in my adult life. It also gave us the chance to talk and have some laughs. I would love to know if he is proud of what I have become and what I have done. He was the one person I can truly say I searched for his approval. I would love to know if he is OK? Most of all I would give him a huge hug and a daughterly kiss and tell him I love him and miss him dearly. Kathaleen United Kingdom www.myspace.com/celestianna Wow, holy-shit.

Because when I was born I was a blue baby so from the minute I was born til the time I was in the incubator and off it my grandma was the first person to hold me. Loving, strong and nurturing. I miss her so much. I would at least have been given the chance to see her alot and do things with her. Like take her out to the mall shopping, go see a movie. Things I've missed out on when I was growing up and working too much long hours. How would you spend that precious time together? Just spend as much quality time with her as I can. Same goes with my mom. Harajuku Tgirl Hudson County New Jersey www.myspace.com/trannygurlinnj Jeanne D'arc. I think she is one of the first woman who we know of who demands attention from men on another matter than just being a "wife". She had her own "grale" to persuede. What would you do with that person? Sit down and ask what she wanted to achieve? How would you spend that precious time together? Lot's of talking I guess. Redfeline Near Breada Netherlands www.myspace.com/redfeline If I had 24 hours to spend with someone it would have to be Kurt Cobain. I would choose him because I was a huge fan of his and he was a big influence to me in my teenage years. I would love to just hang out with Kurt and listen to him sing .

Lenny Diana Program Director WRZK Indianapolis Indiana I would spend my 24 hours most definitely with Ocar Wilde. I find him very intelligent witty handsome and intriguing. I love his work, his writings. I would ask him questions and he would answer them. I would go through his wardrobe and dig into his mind.

Monique Glasgow Scotland www.myspace.com/moniquefletcher Boring I know but of course it would have to be my daughter and I would just tell her about me and what I think and feel about the world and life and just have fun and give her memories to remember me by. Oh, hang on, maybe I have this answer wrong, am I dying afterwards? Greer Auckland New Zealand www.myspace.com/greerm This is not a difficult question for me to answer. If I had 24 hours to spend with someone, I would spend it with my husband that passed away 11-25-96. The reason I would spend it with him, is to say goodbye, because I never got to say goodbye. He just left our lives without notice. I would ask him for his advice on the right things to do and the right choices to make in regards to me being a single parent and raising our daughter. We all three would play together and laugh together and cry together for one last time, and then, I would finally have to let him go and say goodbye...WHICH... I still haven't till this day!! If only we could have 24 more hours!!! Rockin' Kimmie Roo Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/rkr44 January 19 R.I.P. Today Janis would have been 62-years old. An American Icon. Man, what a sweet soulful voice. She lived hard and paid the price. She died in Hollywood, California in 1970 at the age of 27. She was born in 1942 in the oil-refining town of Port Arthur, Texas. One thing for sure, she will always be remembered and never forgotten for the music she left us even at that short period of time.

Q of THE WEEK: (see Monday) My son. Because he has been the most amazing thing that ever happened to me. We would spend the day doing what ever he wanted. We often overlook those who are most important in our lives. Joann-Thrax Phoenix Roll City Arizona www.myspace.com/joannthrax The easy answer would be my mother. She killed herself when I was 14 and I never really got to know her. So obviously I would love the chance to just spend some time with her and find out who she was. And what made her so desperately unhappy with herself and her life. Sorry I didn't contribute something witty or intelligent. Just the plain truth. All the best, Janie (originally from Copenhagen) now in the United Kingdom www.myspace.com/blondeallday I would spend 24 hours with Hunter S. Thompson because I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be a bore. He could probably explain metaphysics and lastly, I think he'd let me pick all the music. :) Cori DJ KUPD Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/theradioqueen I would say YOU, I would be fascinated just to watch a day in your life but, I reckon the queue would be too long and I'd have to wait an awful long time. So, I'm gonna say... -:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:-•:*''''*:•-:¦:-•:*""*:•.-:¦:- -:|:-•:*''''*:• -:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:-•:*''''*:•-:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:- Merlin -:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:-•:*''''*:•-:¦:-•:*""*:•.-:¦:- -:|:-•:*''''*:• -:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:-•:*''''*:•-:¦:-•:*'"*:•.-:¦:- Merlin: Magician, wizard, sorcerer, seer, and teacher at the court of King Arthur.

Carol London England www.myspace.com/caroladict If I could spend a day with anyone - alive or dead- I think I'd spend it with Michael Hutchence. Do I need to give a reason why - legend - what more can I say! Addi Tyne and Wear United Kingdom www.myspace.com/littleoldme Hi , for me it wouldn't be a person but, I would love to spend 24 hours in the time of dinosaur's. Cuz I think that they are such amazing things and I would love to at least touch some or see how they lived, or better still, ride on one, amazing.

Q of THE WEEK: (see Monday) If I had 24 hours to spend with anyone, it would be my mother who passed away when I was 6. There's not very many memories, and if I had the chance I would love to spend every minute of those 24 hours getting to know her, hanging out and having fun! Stuffing ourselves with pizza, watching movies, listening to music, playing dress-up, go to the mall, anything and everything we could think of and do!!! Tamera Kansas City Kansas www.myspace.com/ladyl33ta JKOOL Why? I am hooked on that guy. What would you do with that person? Make love. How would you spend that precious time together? Making freaky love. Valerie Miami Lakes Florida www.myspace.com/lovenest 1. I would want to spend it with Jesus. 2. Because, I would like to be re-assured that what I believe in is fact. 3. What I would do with him is...I would ask him to make water into wine and play some Beatle tunes with me. Jesse (from The Craze) Palmdale California www.myspace.com/jessevaz My mom. Because I never got to say goodbye to her when she died. What would you do? Hug her and talk to her and say goodbye. *jOdi*sTar* Seattle Washington www.myspace.com/jodistar This probably sounds kinda wierd, but I would spend 24 hours with Janis Joplin. We would share a glass of wine and just talk about life . We may go for a walk or hang out and sing some tunes together. Just hang out and be friends. Laugh and cry and, that kind of shit. I just think I could relate to her. Then I would let her go to play poker with Jim Morrison and Hendrix...lol Sounds like a good dream if nothing else Catherine Phoenix Arizona (from myspace.com-no forwarding URL) Barbara Woodhouse. Why? She was a better at understanding dog behaviour than me. What would you do? Take her to meet my dog. How would you spend that precious time together? Teaching my dog not to pee on people's feet.

What would you do with that person? Hold them and tell them both how much they changed my life, How much they are both needed and loved. How would you spend that precious time together? Saying and doing all that we missed. Angel Eyes Henderson Nevada (from myspace.com-no forwarding URL) I'd like to have one more day with my nana. I'd tell her once every hour until our time is up that I love her. We would spend the entire time talking, just reminiscing about the old days and how much fun it was to just hang with her and learn things. Even something menial as knitting. Stories of her childhood never bored me. I would apologize for all the little spats we had, as well as thank her for all the times she made me feel like I was important. I would record her onto a camcorder so that I may forever keep her smile, mischievious eyes and most importantly her voice. I've forgotten what she sounds like, I know memories are all one has of a loved one passed away, but I would like to hear her voice again just one more time. I would lastly thank her for moulding me into the person I am today. I love you nana. Billie (aka PuNKpiStoL) Auckland New Zealand www.myspace.com/redlips_heels_rock John Denver. Because I have always felt spiritually very close to him. We have many things in common and through the things that I have gone through myself in my life, I have great understanding and compassion for him. His music means a lot to me and have carried me through very dark periods of my life. I clearly feel connected to him also through his music, which is touching something very deep inside me. His texts are almost part of myself. 8 months before his death he gave concert in my home town in Denmark and I still very much regret that I didn't go there. Especially because I have never gone to any of his concerts at all. In those 24 hours I would go camping with him up in the Aspen mountains. He would show me his favourite places in the nature up there and we can share the love we both have for nature and particularly for mountains. We would use the time for hiking and deep conversations about life in general, about our lives and why and how things have happened like they did. It would be a very spiritual experience - and I think for both of us. Especially the long conversation at the camp fire in the evening under the stars, would make an unforgetable impression on me. x Take care, Nina Amsterdam Netherlands www.myspace.com/ninaferiancek I'd have to go for the obvious and say Kurt Cobain. So much of what he did shaped my life and there are parts of his that I can empathise with. There is so much bull surrounding the whole suicide / murder thing that it would just satisfying to talk to him and see where his mind was at, how he could leave Frances Bean, if not Courtney. I'd also get him to play his guitar and do an acoustic set cause listening to unplugged on surround sound is really realistic, so imagine hearing it for real? Tayler Nr Brighton England www.myspce.com/taylersuicide Jean Cocteau. Why? He is the most amazing film maker of our time. He was so far ahead of his time and was never apprecaited for all he gave, not only in flim but in theatre, art and religion too. How would you spend that precious time together? I would sit him down and record all of his vast experiences and knowledge and have him invite some of his friends over for tea and conversation (mainly Dali, Picaso and Eric Satie) and I would fill as many tapes of this 24 hours as possible so I can treasure the lost master forever. Spooky Woman Chandler Arizona www.myspace.com/spookywoman My Dad. He passed away suddenly on my 30th birthday, 6 years ago this month. We had no idea it was coming, and I have a lot I would love to share with him, ask him, and a shitload of cuddles to give and receive. I would introduce him to his 2 grandchildren produced by his wildchild daugher, although the shock of me being a mother would probably spur another heart attack! I would ask him to show me some ballroom dancing, as I often go to functions with my husband requiring such frivolity. The best childhood memory I have is watching my parents dance, and being then picked up by my father for a scratchy bearded, close cuddled turn around the room. "Dance With My Father" (Luther Vandross) puts me in this very place every time. I would show him my art, and tell him of successes so far, so that he knew his money on my education was NOT in vain. When my father passed, my mother and siblings were in good places. They were settled and content, with the exception being his baby...me. My mother hopes there is a bit of him lingering to know that I have subsequently joined my family in a good place. How would you spend that precious time together? During said yapping, dancing and introductions, we would possibly be in a pub awaiting some steak pie and chips, and we would be toasting the entire shebang with a very cold, lemony gin and tonic. I would follow up any and all conversation by letting him know that although I sought his pride for many years, I was very proud of the man he was. Kat Helensburgh United Kingdom www.myspace.com/katrionagee January 16 Kate Moss It would be hard pressed to find someone who hasn't heard of the 5' 8" controversial supermodel born in 1974 in Addiscombe, Surrey, England. Moss was known early in her career for her extreme low weight, and being paper thin. Was once engaged to Johnny Depp. At the age of 30, was declared "The World's Sexiest Woman" by a poll taken by men's magazine "Arena" to celebrate their 150th issue. A spokesmodel for Gucci, Yves Saint-Laurent, and Banana Republic, among many others. She is a vegan. Kate was mentioned in Jewel's song "Intuition". Was on the cover of the very first issue of the Russian Vogue. Birthday's today: Danni Ashe, Mason Gamble, Sade, Roy Jones, A J Foyt, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Marilyn Horne, Juliet Berto, "Black" Jack McDowell, Josh Evans, Debbie Allen, Richard Bohringer, Albert Pujols, Greg Page, Maxine Waters Jones (En Vogue), Paul Webb (Talk Talk), Jim Stafford, John Carpenter, Ronnie Milsap, Michael Kreek, Ron Villone Q of THE WEEK: If you had 24 hours to spend with someone dead or alive, any era, who would that person be? What would you do with that person? How would you spend that precious time together? Audrey Hepburn or Louise Brookes. Why? Beautiful, talented, vivacious etc. What would you do with that person? Ermm, dunno if I can say.- lol How would you spend that precious time together? Well, hopefully naked in bed together with either or both. Need I say more? Plastic Palace Alice Warrington, Cheshire England (from www.myspace-no forwarding URL) This is tough! Only ONE person?? Hmmm...It's a toss up between Einstein (generic, I know) and Dave Mustaine. Yes, Dave Mustaine as in Megadeth. Since Einstein is obvious, I'll pick Dave so that I can explain myself. Two things that are very important to me are intelligent conversation and music. In most of Dave's interviews, he has expressed himself in a way that leads me to believe that he is a fairly intelligent man. Perhaps I'd be disappointed after spending 24 hours with him, but I think that I'd actually be surprised at how intelligent he actually is. During out 24 hours, we would discuss a variety of subjects. I always like to hear other people's views on things. Of course, at some point, we'd discuss music. Perhaps he'd teach me a few things on the guitar. Although I'm not really interested in music lessons. Music touches me on an emotional level. I am very passionate about it. We'd also talk about "fun" things like HOCKEY! I love hockey and I know he's a fan too. Anyway, I don't know if other people think that he would be a good choice out of all the people in history, and he might not be my number one choice, but he is certainly in the top 5. Gretchen Goodyear Arizona www.myspace.com/azharleydiva Got an answer for ur question this week. x Would without a doubt be with my best friend who passed away 2 years ago in very tragic circumstances. I'd take him shopping and let him buy anything he wanted, no arguments, no arguing price, then we'd go in his car like before and find one more 'hunk for the day'. I'd tell him how much I loved him just in case he didnt know, and thank him for all the years of friendship and tell him how irreplacable he is. Helz Midlothian United Kingdom www.myspace.com/hippyhelz I'd spend it with the Dali Lama. Why? To learn, and I would just listen, and ask questions. Where? Northern India would be cool. in a forest near the mountains with wild monkeys. Shrigvamp...Bitches:s...Film;s United Kingdom www.myspace.com/shrigvamp My Grandpa :) Because he always gave me a voice!! Which I've never had in my family!! I really miss the walks we use to go on together, ditchin' school so we could finish a game of War or Kings In The Corner!! He taught me how to build, shoot a gun, drive a car, about my Hebrew roots!! We did everything together. Couldn't separate us at all!! I've been lost ever since he passed :( I would just show him everything all about the new Technology!! We'd go for a long walk, play cards again, I could show him how well I surf now!! Just let him know I haven't forgotten a thing he taught me :) Let him know I did finish school and got my Paramedic Certs. And, I'm workin on the nursing thing he always said I'd be perfect for!! LOL There's just so much I would love to do with him,and say to him, or show him!! Mary (aka ~SimplieSweeet~) La Habra California (from myspace.com-no fowarding URL) Jimi Hendrix. He has always been my hero, a musical genius. What would you do with that person? Smoke weed and TALK. How would you spend that precious time together? Get him to play, and talk about his life. I would like to know everything about him.

What will you do with the rest of it? Spend a lot. Will you live for the moment and spend it All? OR, will you think of long term? Think of long term. Mandy United Kingdom (from myspace.com-no forwarding URL) Hmmmm well, if I was to win the lotto, guaranteed at LEAST 1 million, I think I would first buy a new car, one of the new hybrids. Then I would have my simply modest home (a log cabin look) built far off in an area that unless you knew exactly where it was you wouldnt be able to find it, lots of trees a stream and lots of acreage to house a nature preserve. Of course a new wardrobe and the rest I would put in CD's or some type of investment and only live off the interest I get from that. That is what I would do with a large sum of money. Kathaleen United Kingdom www.myspace.com/celestianna Ok, Jonathan, Are you ready? ;) If I won 2 million (sterling) I'd have a HUGE myspace party and fly everybody and their families on my list to the UK. That's if they live overseas. I'd hire the Millenium Dome and have all the best British bands playing live. It would be better than the Glastonbury Pop Festival. Then I'd do the normal boring stuff. Like telling the Bank manager where he could shove his bank. Pay off all my debts. Find a nice high earning investment, and live off off the interest whilst living in America. ;) Tia Essex United Kingdom www.myspace.com/queen_bee_ Well say I won the lotto and it was about 3 million. I'd - Buy a new house. Give generously to my family and true mates. Invest some. Get some new scooters. Get my full license!!!!! Take my kids on holiday to where-ever they want to go. Donate to charity. Build a recording studio , so my mates in Bombskare can record whenever they want to. I'd also get Robyn's {my angel 'daughter' } songs recorded . I'd love to be a band manager!!!! I would take all my true rally mates to the Vegas scooter rally. All expenses paid. And I'd love to do Route 66 on a scooter. That's one of my dreams. Basically I'd make sure my family and mates were secure for the rest of their lives. And I'd want to enjoy doing things I've always wanted to do but have never been able to afford. My fingers are crossed for tonights Lotto!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well I can always dream!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your family. xx Tracy Scotland United Kingdom www.myspace.com/thebitch_ Well, lets see... I think I would try to think long term, but as usual (I have, in fact, received large sums of money in the past), I would probably end up spending it in a blur of heated live for the moment passion and enjoy every bit of it. haha My first thing I would do would be to pay back my parents' loans I have borrowed in the past. Then, I would probably just spend, on whatever. What the hell, you can't take it with you. Kitty Oceanside California www.myspace.com/Nurse_Kitty I would buy/build a huge venue in the sunshine on a beach. Where alternative and new artists could gig and have freedom of expression with their music. And, where the public could go with friends and listen to some amazing sounds. I would then buy a radio station and get you to run it. Paying you lots of money of course !! Shelly United Kingdom www.myspace.com/livepogomusic Well, I think I'd probably buy a couple of new appliances I could do with, since the microwave blew up and the fridge is on its' last legs. Other than that, I'd treat my friends and family with a few good nights out and save a large portion of the rest for a rainy day. Maybe even invest it into a high interest account. Tracey<
