10 Celebrities you would most want to see come back from the Dead.

The British newspaper ‘The Daily Telegraph’ has surveyed its readership, to ascertain their choices, as to celebrities they’d like to see make it back from the grave.

What a sad bunch, they proved to be, as evidenced by this list:

1.) Jesus Christ
.
2.) Princess Diana
3.) William Shakespeare.
4.) Albert Einstein.
5.) Marilyn Monroe.
6.) Leonardo da Vinci.
7.) Elvis Presley.
8.) Roald Dahl.
9.) Freddie Mercury.
10.) Martin Luther King

Naturally, believers in Christianity drove Jesus Christ into poll position, which is ironic.

I thought Jesus Christ was already a ‘living’ God??

Whilst his physical manifestation, was not available for mankind to view, he exists non-the-less.

An invisible Jesus was just as potent, as one reading tonight’s television news?

Moving from this quandary, it’s apparent to me, at least, where humanities priorities sadly currently sit, in an age of television and MTV.

Fuck me, a royal play-bunny, slapper extraordinaire, Princess Diana, is ahead of the greatest scientist the world has ever seen?!

And to keep Diana company whilst on the night-club circuit and bonking her way through the echelons of upper class society, she’ll be in good company with Marilyn Monroe.

Still I guess, the editors of women’s magazines will be salivating at the prospect of even a zombie Diana and Marilyn, gracing their pages again.

And why is it we can’t we get by with Elvis impersonators any-more? They are normally way better than, that wallowing whale Presley, was in his later-years.

Freddie fucking Mercury – please, get a life!

So here’s my list of, the 10 to reenact Lazarus, and since it’s my list, it is of course the bench-mark for all other lists to follow.

In no particular order, and strictly off-the-top of my head.

1.) Einstein
2.) Charles Darwin
3.) Issac Newton
4.) Archimedes
5.) Aristotle
6.) William Shakespeare
7.) Beethoven
8.) Da Vinci
9.) Galileo
10.) My Dad and my first dog.

Footnote: If I was being a self-indulgent prick, I would have also included some spots for Frank Zappa, Ian Curtis and selected Ramones.

So use the comments section, to list your own ‘10 Famous Zombies on Tour’.

I’ll let this one go a couple of days, so we can get some consensus, based on intellect & humanitarian reasons, rather than, the number one hits and the size of ones tits.
