You can choose four, and only four, people you would like to sit with at a good old-fashioned dinner party. Two must be male, and two must be female. (As Cerdic has reminded us, a traditional dinner party is balanced between male and female.)

Well, if I'm in attendance, I'll need three females to balance out the other two male guests.

What was that tv show WAAAAY back when with Steve Allen interviewing historical figures? Always had his wife as anyone from Jane Dickerson to Cleopatra. I think it was on PBS. These posts remind me of it.
