"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

-- Thomas Jefferson

Hope your weekend has been good!!!!

Yeah, I would love a CD, that'd be great. Only thing is (and I still need to tell Dave this), I'm unable to attend the party because I'm on call for work that weekend, and wasn't able to switch with anyone. Pretty bummed.

I really like your new music. It's ever emotional, and it means a lot to me.

I want to have an indie show sometime soon...probobly in Decemeber. Idk where I can have it though. I'll let you know.

Liz says you two are going to leave for a long time...Are you going to travel the world?

Whatever you do I wish you the best of luck, my friends.

So, I just realized, I can't come to your Elbow Room show because I will be in Ohio for a wedding that evening. Bummer!

Also, I don't remember if I've told you guys yet, but "The Study" is great.

Hey! Guys! Do I really need to tell you how amazingly incredible you were last night? I think not. It was a real treat to see you in Mt. Pleasant again, and you TOTALLY blew Camerata away.

Wishing it could always be Segernomics, me, and the Exxon Valdez,
Emily

It's been so long. Are you playing any shows in the area in August? I'm in Kzoo and carless for a while, and I won't be in Michigan for much longer. I'd love to see you soon.

Please join with me in this prayer for peace- Eternal God, creator of all souls, grant unto us such clear vision of the sin of war that we may earnestly seek that co-operation between nations which alone, through thy guidance, can make wars impossible. As man by his incredible modern inventions has made the world into one neighborhood, grant that he may by his co-operation make the whole world into one brotherhood. Stop the greed of those who profit from wars, and stop the ambition of those who seek for conquest. Direct all statesmen to seek a just basis for international action in the interests of world peace. Stir up in the whole body of people an adventurous willingness, as they have sacrificed greatly in war, so also for the international good will to dare bravely, think wisely, decide resolutely, that they may achieve triumphantly the goal of peace in this troubled world. Guide, we beseech thee, the nations of the world into the way of justice and truth, and establish among them that peace which is the fruit of righteousness, that they may become the kingdom of peace. Oh, God, be with us yet, lest we forget. We pray this prayer in the name of the Prince of Peace, our Lord, Jesus Christ. AMEN!
Jeremy Vallender

You make me sad. I can't get down to Jackson tomorrow... and now I won't be able to see my favorite Michigan-type political indie folk group for a very, very long time. :(

I think you should do a special show in Mt. Pleasant. Because obviously we are all very supportive of you and love you very very much. Well, me anyway.
