Samuel Clemens: If I could ask him one question - Would you be my mentor?Herb Alpert: If I could ask him one question – How in the heck did you do it? I’m mean; you went from a humble Hollywood garage operation into the largest independently owned record company in the world. To date, you have sold over 72,000,000 records worldwide, received five #1 hits, eight Grammy Awards, fifteen Gold albums and fourteen Platinum albums. Just how did you do that amigo? (Oh! I hope you don’t mind if I call you amigo.)Antonio Carlo Jobim: If I could ask him one question – So, was this girl from Ipanema someone you were actually acquainted with? The story goes that she was a stranger who just happened to walk by the same coffee shop every day as you were drinking coffee. Do you have any pictures of her? She must have been a real “looker†for you to have written one of the greatest songs ever with her in mind. Sorry Carlos, that’s two questions isn’t it. Just ignore the second one please. (Oh! I hope you don’t mind me calling you by your first name, seeing as how we have never been formally introduced.)Cleopatra: If I could ask her one question – Now, just exactly where did that asp bite you and can I see the spot? I know, that’s two questions also, but I’m sticking with asking two questions in this case.Okay, Okay… I realize most of these people are already dead. I hope you don’t think that makes me creepy or something? The fact of the matter is that I really would like to see Cleopatra’s ass… I mean asp - Sorry Cleo, no offense meant.
