Jeremy. Known him since 2003 when we were living in London. He perfected marijuana flapjacks that tasted even nicer than regular flapjacks. Genuinely nice guy.
@wrecker. The problem with your original title isn’t that it’s derogatory. And your apparent aim for the thread is fun. Just that the word carries some baggage. Especially on the internet. This piece explains some of the background.
I’d have to go for Rabbi Lionel Blue. An absolute star and one of the few people to make ‘Thought for the Day’ entertaining and enlightening.
And Jake Gyllenhaal, Natalie Portman, and Gal Gadot.
Gal Gadot. It’s possibly a bit sexist to nominate her just for being the most beautiful woman that’s ever lived, so I’ll add to it that she’s been in no less than 3 different Fast and Furious films. Hard to imagine a higher accord.
Einstein has already been mentioned so I’d like to add Simon Schama to the list. Bit of a sentimentalist but I could listen to him waffle on for hours.
