If given 60 Minutes to be famous...

If you had 60 Minutes to be famous for whatever you want, what would you spend your time doing? Who would you want to meet, talk with, hang out around, etc?
And after that time was up, do you think it would change how you feel about fame and celebrities?

I would probably spend (waste) it just seeing what its like to be famous, and for people to want to be you. Minded, it would probably go to my head after the first few minutes, but Its more for the experience for me. After my time was up, I wouldn't really change that much, even after being famous for an hour, I would still be the same old person by the end of the day.

It depends what I'm famous from doing, and what position I'm in.

Well, you can define that the way you want. In example, I would want to be famous for finding a unknown intelligent species.

I would convince everyone canada doesn't exist and that the land to our north is actually russia. I would also lead the masses to believe that the real reason Russia never nuked us was because they were too close in proximity. This is why Sarah Palin can see russia from her house. And Cold War got the term "cold" from its environment, and has nothing to do with the standoff.

... That's actually really thought out o.O
Though, the parts of Canada I've been to aren't as cold as where I live at right now. About 10 Degrees worth of difference.

Eh. Apparently global warming is going on, thus heating up the northern hemisphere to a greater temperature than it was back in the day.

I would be Jay Leno, set my watch for 60 minutes, have some food, and jump off a bridge just as the 60 minutes was over.

That is, assuming you switch back to your own body at the end of the hour.

Well yeah. I live south of Canada too, which makes it even weirder that we get colder than parts of it. Indiana sucks ;-;

What I meant by this question was, you would stay the same person through the whole thing, you wouldn't turn into someone famous, but be temporarily famous yourself.

That is due to new environmental testing going on right now, similar to that of the chinese. We are trying to harness the power of the weather in order to fight our battles for us in a more moral way. That way, if things get out of hand, we can blame it on god.

Half of the people who are doing this don't even believe in God, and why would it be his fault if we would be the ones trying to use nature for something that needs to be regular, even though nature is proven to be erratic and sometimes unpredictable?
