Mister D’s Acknowledgements:
Bette Midler: Without you, none of this would exist. Thank you for the years of ceaseless inspiration. You’ve touched many in such different and personal ways that all I can say is: Thanks for making life so much brighter for so many…
Nicola Calder: My right hand woman. Thank you for helping me with getting Facebook off the ground, the beautiful graphics, and your constant positive support. I couldn’t do it without you.
Darrell Redmond: Darrell, I must give co-credit to everything as far as the peripheral pages on Bootleg Betty. I just would have been lost without his “graphics design” expertise. I know he made pages that I visualized that probably made him barf a little in his mouth, but he always comes through for me, and somehow makes BLB a little classier in the process. And he does so much more. The best by product of all this is that we became best friends. That’s what I will treasure the most.
Tom and Sammy Miro: Divine Arists – original artwork, paintings, sketches – they have been with me since the beginning and original art work lends so much to a page. So thank you guys.
Steve Weiner (BaltoBoy Steve): Divine Photographer, Photoshop Artist – Stevie, Stevie….what can I say. Beauty just follows you wherever you go….looking to look, well, more beautiful. Also, thanks so much for being such a good friend. Barry and I will never forget Baltimore.
Da’Vi: The first to send me video, screen caps, artwork when I need it. Talented and fast (are you like this on dates, too????)
Cris Vanuzzi: My Brazilian hottie – great online friend – helps keep me sane – thank you for the Divine Timeline and all the other help you’ve done for me.
Diane Stow: Contributed to a lot of the original writing on the peripheral pages and the Divine Disclaimer – great writer, great sense of humor.
Chef Bev: I just love Bev. She’s been a long, loyal friend.
Brandon Hall: For your friendship
