~You are a *Taverner*.
Sometimes patrons want to go where everybody knows their names, though it helps 
when half of them are named John. When people want to celebrate, or commiserate, 
they gather to your establishment. You provide the atmosphere, the warmth, rum, 
and even an ear to bend. Did I mention the rum? Years before the language will be 
mangled with terms like facilitator and networking and interpersonal communication,
you've overseen it all, and broken up a few bar fights, to boot.~
