I guess I'll just be blunt right off the bat here: what the hell is wrong with Esquire readers?

The mag asked readers to name the people they'd like to have dinner with, and the winners were...Jay Leno and Condoleeza Rice?!

Some of the others that made the list I can understand: Bill Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, even stars like George Clooney and Angelina Jolie (you could ask her about world hunger and her kid). But I think that after eating dinner with Jay Leno for just five minutes I'd want to punch him. He'd probably just be laughing all the time, cracking jokes, and spitting food all over the place. I mean, really, what's his dinner appeal? I would think late night hosts like Letterman and Ferguson and Rose would be more interesting.

As for Rice: eh. Maybe Esquire readers misunderstood the question. Maybe they thought it said "what would you like to have for dinner?" Then the Rice answer would make sense.
