People that make stuff and do stuff.
a fisherman, a farmer, an electrician, a plumber, a carpenter, a mechanic, a civil engineer, a stone mason, a freemason, a witch, a wizard, and a brewer.There's just a few famous people I'd like to meet; Deepak Chopra, Phil Lesh, Stevie Wonder, James Hetfield, Anne Wilson, Joseph Campbell, Mel Brooks, and maybe Al Gore...
