Andy LaCasse

Easily, one of the best musicians I know.  I was proud to work with Andy in music and comedy duo, "Kit and Kaboodle," for more than a decade.  He generally can be found playing in a handful of different bands at any one time.  And he has a solo CD in the works.  Check out his MySpace Page.

Open Source Software

Audacity
Audacity is Open Source Software (i.e. free!) that records and edits audio. It has many features of far more expensive Audio Software.
OpenOffice.org
OpenOffice.org is the name of a Office Suite like Microsoft Office. It is fully functional, compares well with MS Office and is Open Source (free).
Blender
Blender is 3-D image creator and animation software. The interface is huge, complex and non-standard. You WILL need to look at some online tutorials or some books to get started. That said, if you or your kid is at all interested in creating animations or games, this is a GREAT, inexpensive way to start.
