I Love You. To Mr. Doug Morris for sharing his tuna fish sandwich with me and for letting me make the record I wanted to make. Jason Flom, well, it was either adopting me or getting me a record deal -- you're the best, honey. Larry Kruteck, my manager, for saying "I'll Stand Behind You" when nothing had been proven. Al "Pop" Schlesinger, I owe you a store full of ice cream not to mention my gratitude for you being able to read -- in between the lines. Joe "Check The Tuning" Chiccarelli -- who understood my music, my alien friends, and who became the ears of this project, my mentor and my friend. Kim Bullard -- My Pirate Comrade, My Right Arm, You must've been Haydn in your last life... maybe I was your maid. David Kershenbaum, for teaching me how to eat Sushi and how to look into my heart. Van Wyckoff, WEP the Homefront support, for telling me the bestest, sickest jokes when I was the lowest. Mike Elmer, for looking after my songs like children. Mike, my brother, for teaching me to write them. Marie, Sister Tigger, for teaching me strength. Eric, my love, for mirrors, passion, and truth. The Earth Angels who have taught me to fly: Carol Carol Jones, Cindy "Rugburns" Marble, Lo Rae "Doodie" Fleming, Ce Ce, Connie, Lexie, Jenny, Merry "The Diva" Clayton, and not leastly Nancy Shanks.
