I'd like to meet:

Interesting people People who like to write songs Joni Mitchell (to hear her story) Jim Caviezel (to discuss Catholicism) Robert Plant (he seems to have had an unusual life) Sarah Brightman (to get some pointers on singing) Johnny Depp (because he seems honest and genuine, therefore humble), Paul McCartney (I'd love to know how he's been inspired to write all those songs, plus he {The Beatles} helped changed the world or Rock.

Most of all Jesus Christ, who wants us to "love one another, " including our enemies. Wow, that's a hard one, but we must do everything in our power to follow this most important command. I'm not sure what Epistle it's in but one of the aposles says, "How can we love the God we can't see, if we can't love the neighbor we can see."
