dogs on trucks jr. replies

dera Henrietta-san.

I am sorry to hear of your recent frustrations but please reserve theoretical use of your compound knitting bow for more worthwhile pursuits, like stitching the broken pieces of (the Nucleus Area) back together again.

Shooting at illusory things is a bad idea generally, and it runs counter to the nonviolent spirit of the loop. Besides, we need to be thrifty with those arrows.

Below is some content which may help ease your frustrations. Please feel better soon!

sincerely, your pal, dogs on trucks

ps. Don't worry! Shimpai Shi-nai!

"There is now significant concern that the holiday retail season is going to underperform," said Gregory Miller, chief economist at SunTrust Banks. "Traffic doesn't necessarily translate into profits," he said, referring to reports of crowded stores over the weekend.

get you one

Kampekki Garakuda is pleased to recommend - American Dumpster’s long-awaited new CD, Rumor Mill, which became available in stores on Thursday, May 18th of this year. Plan 9 Music stores carry this item, which can also be obtained at one of the American Dumpster's live performances.

From the band's website:

..The project began in June, 2005, when Montreal based producer Matt Zimbel saw the band in performance in Charlottesville, VA at the request of executive producers Ian Day and Lucinda Ewell. When pre-production began in July, 2005, front man Christian Breeden and the band agreed, along with their producer and executive producers, that the record’s foremost aim was to capture the enthusiasm, whimsy, and spontaneity of the band’s live show, while carving out a more intimate sonic space than a live venue can allow—a space in which the nuances of the music and the delicacy of the lyrics are able to speak more closely to the listener...

...Throughout the record an intimacy is established with the material, and especially with Christian Breeden’s voice, so that every nuance of his husky singing, down to each raspy breath, speaks directly to the listener. Often compared to Johnny Cash and Leonard Cohen, Breeden’s bourbon-soaked voice delivers the message—always with grace, but without ceremony.

“First the man takes the drink

And then the drink takes the man.

I threw my baby out with the wash

And now I got one dirty hand.

So I killed two birds and then got stoned.”

“The Quitter” by Christian Breeden
