Meme Tuesday
"He jests as one who's never felt a meme."

-- from Romeo & Juliet, where 'meme' was originally 'wound'
Jeff Miller passed on this latest meme to me which I agree is surprisingly difficult to answer.
Name up to three characters . . .

1) . . . you wish were real so you could meet them.

1. Binx Bolling (Percy's "Moviegoer")
2. Scarlett O'Hara (Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind")
3. Edward Casaubon (Elliot's "Middlemarch")

2) . . . you would like to be.

1. Don Quixote de la Mancha
2. Coach on NBC's Friday Night Lights
3. Pretty much any of the Who's in Whoville in "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"

3) . . . who scare you.

1. most of the characters in Flannery O'Connor's fiction
2. Uriah Heep (David Copperfield)
3. Maurice Bendrix (Greene's "End of the Affair")
By the power invested in me by the state of blogspot and Jeff Miller, I hereby inflict this meme on Half-baked Taters, Soc Engineer, Literary Compass, People of the Book, Darwin Catholic, and the Iconic Catholic.
