I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE FOLLOWING FOR ENDLESS SUPPORT:

My WIFE, Marla, has supported me in many ways…

My Cats, Lily and Dahli, are there for emotional support, heating up the bed, and helping me relax while I’m stressed out, reading, or sleeping.  Does anyone know how to thank a cat in their language?

Coffee–Starbucks is way better than Dunkin Donuts.  Since I’m not rich, I pull my own shots of Espresso at home.  Automatic Drip is my friend during the work week. Everybody’s working for the weekend, but Saturday Night’s alright for fighting.

Mr. Carl Ferrara–without him, there is no spoon… or Applesauce consumption!

Dr. Christine Schaefer: Western Washington University Mentor.

Finally, I am grateful for my wonderful family, G-D, previous students that have practiced and succeeded, and a selective list of lifelong friends dispersed throughout the US and other parts of the world, High School, Camp Louemma, present colleagues, and college friends from Oswego, Radford, and Western.

Thank you Alanis Morrisette…

Thank you Led Zeppelin…

Thank you for letting me be myself again…
