Just about anyone, but for our first meeting it is imperative that we sneak into Area 51 together and check out all the crazy tech the government has been developing in secret. We'd enter a machine that creates a portal to other dimensions and start exploring distant worlds, with the goal of trying to find an alien bowling alley.

INQUIRIES WELCOME (or Antiquity Is Just A Funny Word)
She turns to me, and I can see her countenance so pallid
Gentle as the rain, and yet it's somehow menacing
She has no recollection of yesterday's sunset
She tells me that antiquity is just a funny word
She can tell me the exact contents of her handbag
She can tell me all about the latest broadcast's plot
Try to find some sparkle in her eyes so plain and tragic
Try to catch a whisper of her breath lost to the wind
In this bitter night, I call, and stall for you, unknown
Absent at first light, I crawl, and fall for you, alone
