He later attended Arizona State University. He's maintained an art business (Cherokee Art) since 1985 and exhibits original and reprinted art pieces at art shows and community festivals throughout the Pacific Northwest. Additionally, he is very active with the Port Orchard and Bremerton Kiwanis Clubs and with local PTA's in his school district. A "political junkie,' Coleman dreams of one day running for a public office. He has been a yarn-spinner and storyteller since childhood-a side occupation that has been profitable, but also has gotten him into hot water on a number of occasions. His hobbies include that which is self-evident (artwork and writing), but also include gardening, high-end digital photography, music, baking, cooking, home canning, sunbathing and hanging out at The Manette Saloon in Bremerton, Washington. Despite the dark nature of his writing and artwork, Coleman is a fun-loving, optimistic guy-usually the life of the party. Go ahead and invite him to one...but don't be surprised if you end up in some bizarre compromising position in his next book.

I have owned numerous Celestron telescopes up to 11-inch apertures, so I expected better. I ordered this for my daughter - it arrived defective; the primary mirror had slipped from its bracket, making collimation impossible. In Celestron's defense, it likely happened in transit. Amazon's return policy is not a hassle, and I'm upgrading her to another telescope. I'm sure that had this particular scope not arrived in a defective condition it would have made a great scope. Only criticism is the plugs on the back to cover the collimation screws pop out a bit too easily.

Excellent CD. I've spent most of the day listening to my large Clumsy Lovers CD collection - and I would highly recommend that past-time to anyone. I've seen the 'Lovers play live at least ten or eleven times over the years and I've never seen a disappointing show. I'm a HUGE fan of their earlier material (Picture This, Barnburner) but their last few studio releases have held numerous surprises as the 'Lovers continue to delight with new originals and surprising twists to covers (Hot Dog, etc.) Get this CD, and then start collecting the rest of them. Sign up for the Clumsy Lovers newsletter and you'll likely be offered bootleg CD's or first grabs on new releases down the road. And yes,… Read more

This is a good intro CD to the Clumsy Lovers as it is basically a compilation of previously recorded items. Take a listen to this and then go to "Picture This," "Barnburner," and other releases by the group.
In deference to the previous reviewer, I don't particularly care to listen to disc one of this set over and over again, but disc two is CLASSIC Clumsy Lovers and a very good demo of what this band is capable of. Can never get enough of "Paddy's Leather Breeches" and other classic CL covers and originals...
