This is Commander Larry Castle, creator, developer and owner of Carved Opal and Obsidian (COandO).  With him is Bosswoman Pamela, head of organizational skills, product research, and international relationships.  You will see one or the other of them at any gem show appearance COandO makes, and very rarely you may spot them together...at the SAME TIME!

The COandO deity of prosperity is Shri Myowjbfishfcha, also known as "the Singing Cowboy" 
Possibly a modern day western manifestation of Ganesha, when delighted his laughter brings shopping magic not only to our booth, but to those around us, and to the happy customers...

Here is one of Shri Myowjbfishfcha's favorite ceremonies of devotion, a song and dance routine always guaranteed to bring a smile to his face....
