I know this is a lot to ask from you as my friend but, I would like to ask all my friends and their friends to ask all their friends to add us as a friend.


My thinking is that as many we all can do more.
Our food program is in need of a tractor and our country has many Hungry Americans.
When they are more of us doing a little... there is LOTS we can do to Help Our Fellow Americans.
Besides... it could be one of us next to have to deal with Hunger! When many do a little... there's not such a burden on just a few.


Could you help us in getting the word out to all your friends and Help Us Help the Hungry Americans in Need? Ask them to visit our MySpace page to view our information provided and choose for themselves if they would like to add us.


Thank You in Advance for Your Support and Your Valuable time!

Sincerely,
Jim Bonham

Hey Craig when will you be playing shows.
Stellarscope





Apr 3 2009 4:27 PM

how's it going? Haven't been playing out that much lately, not because we don't want to just because I don't have the ample time I used to have on my hands to set the shows up and what not. New record is almost done, a little different that we have done before. Remember... if you ever want us to come down and play we'll make it happen.

much love,

tom & crew

Mrs.
Gowanus
By (H+) M.S.G.
(from the archives)

Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, this bar will be forever ours
Why did you have to leave us so soon?
It couldn’t have been the right time
It couldn’t have been so soon
Mrs.
Gowanus, the lines between us are so fine
What secrets do you hide?
What futures can you tell me?
Looking into the cup you hold
Mrs.
Gowanus, are you really so old,
That you alone know,
When the truth becomes lies,
Through the passage of time?
Mrs.
Gowanus, why are you singing to the stones?
Do they tell you what you need to know?
Our seats are so far away
Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, are we really losing you?
