Friends, Colleagues and Countrymen:

• A great, new friend of mine, wonderful storyteller and human being, Tony Toledo who lives somewhere sort of near to Boston, MA!
• Angela Klingler is another wonderful friend and storyteller. She is in Salem, NH
• Stevens Blanchard my sound man, recording engineer, studio, and contributor on my second CD, More Second-hand Tales
• Kristina Stykos can be found at: www.kristinastykos.com Why? Because she is a great musician and fab sound engineer. She recorded my storytelling CD, Second-hand Tales. You can buy it at CDBaby.com
• I worked with Pat Spalding at a gig in Rochester, NH - three grades of kids, each group was between 250 and 325 students and we had a blast. We became good friends and she is also a great teller of tales
• My brother has a fun filled site, called The World Of Colin and also now has his own business! One Man and Your Dog!
• Great friend and teacher, Nick Wood does a lot of work with the American Beauty Way and Native American teaching and craft work and is also one of the founders/editors of Sacred Hoop. His partner Jan Wood also has a great site and is another co-founder/editor of Sacred Hoop
• Great Photographer and friend of mine, Michael Romanos
• Another photographer who did some wonderful shots of me for Upper Valley Life Magazine is Jim Mauchly of Mountain Graphics
• Home of Double J, DJ Damon M., DJ Nuggets, and DJ Innuendo. Underground dance resource and local Boston area party portal. Fountain xix
• A friend of mine, Cass Seeley and the CJM Group
  
• Valley Quest, part of the non-profit organization, Vital Communities. Valley Quest is close to my heart as it is part of the letterboxing culture that got me back into art by cutting rubber stamps. I now hide these stamps for people to find and take an impression of (not to remove the stamp)!
  
• UltraJosh, the man who got me into Allaire and pushed my HTML skills and who let me jam on his songs when Josh was writing new material
• Dan Zanes and Friends needs to be under the friends heading. I do not know him personally, but... Dan plays with a fantastic band, putting on a great live show. And just when you realize that you cannot live without the wonderful upbeat music you can go and buy his CD's too! You do not need to be a kid to listen to Dan Zanes, far from it (I find myself listening to his CD's in the car when I am on my own) but you might want to take a kid or two to the shows! Not only is the music great but the culture that surrounds him, his ambiance, his grace, is a pleasure. A human being who glows beauty from the inside

Pop Culture:

• A namesake of sorts, a hero of sorts, whatever he is, he drove the coolest car in his 1960's t.v. series: Simon Templer
• What Pop Culture Page would complete without The Batman 1966 tv show!
• And here is that coolest car, greater than even the Baracuda, and one day I will own one. The Volvo P1800
• This man's music and lyrics inspire me, Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel
• Although this band are, to the best of my knowledge, at this point, still defunked, it is Sarah's favourite band: Phish
• Another tribute to my childhood is the Gerry Anderson tv shows, the Legendary Captain Scarlet and the cult classic Thunderbirds and here is the Gerry Anderson Fab Club Site just in case!
• A little something for the kids, no matter what age: the 'real' world of Harry Potter and the movie world of Harry Potter
• I thought about putting this fella under countryman, but he is not really British. So pop culture it is, yeah baby! Austin Powers
