Yeah, I'm thinking he'll be cool at first and then get totally paranoid, and flip out. Sounds like fun!

Okay, serious answer.
Both of my grandfathers.
My grandpa Nihsen was from the old country and could tell me a lot about his childhood and the war in which he lost his legs. I never heard the stories and know I missed out on a lot.
My grandpa on my mother's side was in the war but worked here in the States. In fact, he was one of the mechanics who helped to strip down the Enola Gay - a fact I never knew until after he died.
I doubt either of them would smoke a joint, but Grandpa Nihsen was known to throw back a few drinks. Grandpa Laing didn't drink to the best of my knowledge.
And if I could do more than them I'd keep going back and talking to each of their parents so I could build an accurate family tree. Mine stops at about 950 AD or so on my mom's side. Nobody really special. Lots of farmers and carpenters.

Drinking beers with someone is less social than sharing a joint because you physically pass it back and forth, and together, you smoke it out of existence as a team.
I guess you can clink beer glasses together

That is why I want to meet my grandfathers. Some people say that my great grandfather on my mother's side was a nazi criminal hiding in south america

I'd say Hunter S Thompson, Johnny Cash and Terry Pratchett
Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, and Stephen Fry. The conversation would be so interesting and entertaining I'd probably have to kill myself afterward.

I'll have what he's having.
I was headed for Palin and the teabagger crowd.
Because they need to loosen the fuck up...
William Gibson, Alan Moore, Alan Turing.
Man, I don't really know. I was thinking maybe some cool historical leaders, but really I'd probably want to be perfectly sober to talk to people like them.
So then I was thinking my own ancestors, but what version? Would I want to share a joint with my grandpa when he was my age? Or would I want to spend another evening with the man who I actually remember? Sharing a joint with my grandpa as a teen, as a young adult and as an old man would be a trip though.
But then there's any fictional character! I'd want to get Malcolm Reynolds and Han Solo in the same room to discuss smuggling. MacGyver could be there too to make us a bong out of who-the-fuck-knows-what.
