What could you do to entertain me? What would you do?

I will entertain you by being insane (and I do it everyday).

I could take you sailing a few miles offshore tonight (May 23/24, 2014). We’ll have chilled stone crab claws with mustard sauce and ice-cold Pinot Grigiot as the sun sets. I have a surprise in store for you, but I’ll let it reveal itself in its own time. Tonight will be moonless until 3 am and the stars will be magnificent under a black Caribbean sky. The Milky Way stretches across the the whole length of it, taking up a third with its width. It creates enough light by itself to see in the darkness. As the dim light on the western horizon surrenders to the night, out of the corner of your eye you’ll see a spark. Then another. And before you know it, we will be engulfed in the most spectacular meteor storm in years.

For real. Look for it tonight in the northern sky. We’re expecting big shooting stars, 100 to 400 per hour.

@Espiritus_Corvus can…..can I be your friend?

I could take you birding, if you’re into that (I’ve found lots of people aren’t). I’m getting good at knowing my bird calls, so on occasions when I’ve been on hikes with interested friends, I’ve taken them on kind of a “bird tour” just by noticing calls and stopping to spot whatever we’re hearing.

I could play some piano for you too, or do a little stand-up comedy.

In general I’m not much of an entertainer.

@Espiritus_Corvus Heck with my son and his girlfriend. I’m coming down on the next flight. Tell Sam to get the V-berth ready.

I can do an Elvis Presley impersonation. Thank you, than you very much!

GQ. Almost all entertaining would take me out of my comfort zone.I would probably resort to baking something. I’m good at that, and it takes up time. If you wanted to, I would take you out afterwards, for a hike through the woods with the dogs. We could take along whatever we’ve baked. In the evening, how about a campfire? And afterwards, I’d run you a bath, we could watch a movie and go to sleep.

I mean…I can juggle, play the piano, recite stuff only lawyers need to know, and whistle in loud and mysterious ways (think Dr. Cox from “Scrubs”) – but I’m not sure I would make you watch me doing any of these for more than a few minutes….

@Mariah Count me in! I wish I could identify even one bird by its call. After our hike, you’re welcome to play your piano. I play, too, but not very well (yet).

I throw great Halloween themed parties.
