JOB on your 1st Live Webcast, Guys! I will be at the next one for sure! I think Mr. Jones was both a 'good sport'
and a great pleasure to listen to - not to mention funny! It makes me want to go out and buy some of the films of Doug's
that I have missed. On the topic of who Doug reminds people of: "The old masked characters of the golden age", I
AGREE! A modern day master of his craft. But on his own 'real life' mannerisms, he reminds me of actor Jeff Goldblum
- even sounds like him to some degree, which I hope he will see as a compliment! Both are class acts! See you all at the next
Webcast!

want to wish Coolwaters and it's Crew "Good Luck" for their 1st of hopefully many 'Live' Web Show's
to come! Being a long-time fan and supporter of Coolwaters & the work of Derek Maki, I can't wait to see how your
Production Company makes yet another jump forward for fans of Sci-Fi, Horror, Comics, etc. and make it possible for us to
get even more closer and in touch with our favourite actors, directors, special effects masters and the like! And a special
'kudos' to Doug Jones for being the brave starter of this experimental first show! Good Luck Guys - I can't wait
for the show!

7:00 PM PST! Our first guest is DOUG JONES and we are really excited to have him. There is NO need to sign up for anything
to watch the show, it is 100% FREE and MEMBERSHIP FREE. The show will air weekly with new guests EACH WEEK! We suggest that
viewers tune in NO LATER THAN 5 minutes prior to show time. This will give you time to prep your web browser. Here are some
simple instructions to make your viewing more easy and fun to watch: 1 - First go to the shows' streaming
site (the site is separate from our site). To do so simply CLICK HERE: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/coolwaters-live By clicking on the link above you will be brought to our web shows' page. If the link above does not take you
directly there simply PASTE and CUT it into your web browser. 2 - Once on the shows' ustream page you should
see a card that reads "5 MINUTES TILL SHOW TIME" that means you're watching us live! IF that is the case we
suggest that you close ALL other web browser windows and all other programs you are using. 3 - IF YOU DO NOT see
the "5 MINUTES WILL SHOW TIME" card on your screen, it may mean you need to refresh your browser, wait 30-seconds
and hit REFRESH, then you should see the countdown card. REMEMBER, IF YOU ARE TOO early you will not see the card, we are
ONLY running the card 5 minutes prior to the start of the live show. You will see the card change EVERY MINUTE till the show
begins. 4 - If you want to join us on AIM (or iChat with a MAC) simply send us a message to: coolwaterslive Then
you can send in questions to the celebrity guest that may be read LIVE on the air! 5 - We are streaming at a low enough
quality so that almost EVERYONE will be able to watch the show. We are doing this on purpose so that those of you who do not
have a fast internet connection will still be able to enjoy the show. If the LIVE portion of the show it jittery or pauses
it means your internet connection may be too slow. We suggest that you make sure NO other computers are using your internet
connection during the live broadcast (this may also mean that you may not be able to chat with us using AIM). Also ADJUST
your volume to get the best sound quality possible. Our sound is being sent out at the highest quality possible so that you
will be able to hear us even if your video seems jittery or slow. We hope that helps explain how to enjoy the show.

writes: I have never entered a blog before and I figured it was my responsibility to try it for the
new year. Derek and I work very hard for all our clients (we have over 75 of them) and I can not thank the clients enough
for all their support over the years! Derek has been assisting clients for 12 years now and I know how hard he works. I also
know how hard each client works when they are at events meeting fans face to face, I thank them for their perseverance and
for their dedication to their fans. Speaking of fans I must also thank them for the years of support that they give to both
Derek and ALL the clients. Without the fans there would be no celebrities and without the fans there would be no Coolwaters
management company. Finally, I guess I should thank the studios for making films and thank the promoters around the world
who keep hosting these great conventions bringing fans face to face with their favorite heroes! God Bless and Happy 2010!
DECEMBER 17, 2009- JOHN P. writes: Hey
Derek, just letting you know I got my Irvin Kershner autograph yesterday, it is AWESOME! ...extra thanks for the pic of him
signing also. I'll be in touch in the future, happy holidays!

just got my posters and pictures back from the Kershner signing and everything came out GREAT! I love that you included
a picture of Mr. Kershner signing each item. My stuff looks awesome and I appreciate you setting this up. Thank you
from all of the fans.!

remember only that Clint Walker told me not to hang out with the crew as they would have less respect for me if I did, which
I thought was the most pretentious, elitist pile of horse doo doo I had ever heard.

Margot Kidder post a comment on what she may remember of filming "Bounty Man" for TV in
1971 with Clint Walker?
JULY 21, 2009-DANIEL V. writes: I
just wanted to write to you and express my gratitude on the amazing job you are doing with Coolwaters Productions. I
just received my personalized Pumpkinhead autograph and it is absolutely gorgeous. The quality of the photograph combined
with the signature is going to make this one of the highlights of my personal collection. I appreciate you taking the
time to have Tom personalize it and the quick delivery. There are a number of production companies out there and I have
dealt with a good many of them yet this is one of the unique times where I feel as though you guys care as much for the fans
as the clients you represent. That means a lot when it comes down to it. I wish you nothing but the best in the
future. I'm sure Coolwaters will continue to hear from me regarding other orders down the road.
JULY 15, 2009- COOLWATERS STAFF
writes: Hello Corey: Coolwaters does not control the promoter and their choices of WHO to bring in.
We pitched several STAR WARS clients to the Toronto promoter and were turned down. THE ONLY way fans can see more guests is
to e-mail the promoter with requests of guests. IF a promoter sees there is a demand then they will bring in more guests.
It's your job as a fan to let your local promoter know WHO YOU WANT TO SEE. Get your friends to join in.... the more requests
the better. Coolwaters can only supply the talent! Good luck!
JULY 13, 2009- CHAD F writes: Hi
Derek & Coolwaters Crew! Loved the DAVE BARCLAY Signing Items, they make a great addition to my collection!
Are you
going to have a "Send-In" for the "GREASE" Cast Members appearing at the San Diego Comic Con - or setting
something up with them for the near future?
I put my 'vote' in AGAIN for a JOHN MOLLO "Send-In" Signing
- that's 2 so far!
Can't wait to see Billy Dee at Toronto's FanExpo this August, we've missed him! The
Expo's site also listed Walter Koenig, aren't you representing him at this function? Lastly, I hope we will see you
there as well. 2005 I believe was the last time.
Keep up all the good work, and a BIG HOORAY for your wonderful Team!

think Margot is a truly great person that threw her sensitivity and endurance has carved her name into the annals of human
history, not just as a celebrity but for all the qualities she herself represents as a human being! Best regards an old friend

TOM, thanks for
the nice words!!! We are so happy that fans are liking our new services. We are trying so hard to accommodate all requests.
We do want to do a DOUG JONES send in and will probably do it at the right time. As for Igor, we'll need to ask him! ILMers?????
Well HARD TO SAY, but we will keep it in mind. We've had folks ask us to do Mollo and Muir but the demand needs to come
from more than just one or two fans.... we need more requests. We also have other things we are planning for the next 18 months
including our exclusive deal with WIZARD WORLD ENT. Without saying WHO, we have a VERY SPECIAL GUEST who has NEVER SIGNED
BEFORE appearing at the WIZARD show in New York. We can not announce this person as of yet, BUT fans are gonna go nuts! BTW
it's not a STAR WARS person, but this actor is in some very popular Sci-Fi and major motion picture flicks! THE LINES
IN NY WILL BE LONG, so send ins WILL BE OFFERED! Stand by for the official announcement!
JULY 10, 2009- TOM writes:
Great job on adding
pre-order option to the site! You've always delivered outstanding service, and I'm excited about this new option.
I started my orders with you on Kershner, and I've continued with Margot Kidder (awesome shot and personalized auto),
Dave Barclay (just got my Dark Crystal figure today and am anxiously awaiting the signed photo), and have sent in photos for
Joe Viskocil and Billy Dee Williams. You have such a great service and turnaround time is fast. Also, I like what
you've started to do with the exclusive pics! Will you be offering any personalized options in the future for Doug Jones
or Igor Jijikine? Any other ILMers?
 APRIL 20, 2009- Brett C. writes: I
wanted to thank you for helping out A.J. and I to get Viskocil on our items. It really meant a lot to me, I appreciate
the fine service. I have a question - are you planning on any other ILM signings this year? Possibly with Mollo, Muir or some
of the others? Also I wanted to see if Billy Dee Williams was planning on a signing this year.
APRIL 18, 2009- Don M. writes: Many,
many thanks Derek. Another flawless job- much appreciated on the Kershner & Barclay signings. I received everything today
& both posters turned out perfect. Thanks again for all your efforts!!!

Hello Coolwaters,
I just received my Kershnew & Barcley autographs. I am very pleased to add them to my collection. I hope the private signings
are a success! Congratulations on your success.
Cheers, Mark!
