Tonight, I’ll be seeing The Gloria Record play at the Unitarian Church in Philadelphia with some hardcore bands. I spent last night picking out films to use for the upcoming Reels of White Softly Flow shows. Today is the final day in TNI Books’ Little Engines tour…enjoy. :::scott::: Welcome to the LITTLE ENGINES Issue Three Electronic Reading Tour! ————– an excerpt from Jesus Christ Lord of Hosts Meets L.A. County by Holly Day Jesus is walking down an empty stretch of road next to a poorly maintained farm dotted with scraggly yellow grass and dried-up shrubs. The sun beats down on His back and neck, unbearably hot, and finding a shade tree to sit beneath is becoming more important than reaching L.A. before dark. He knows He should have started off earlier this morning, but His ridiculous nomadic compulsions don’t ever seem to occur at convenient or logical times.

I added a new splash page with the postcard that was made for Denison Witmer’s Philadelphia Songs cd/LP that will be out 24 September 2002. A few more titles were added to the on-line store, so be sure to check those out. Tonight, a bunch of us will be going to $1 hot dog night at the Phillies. Maybe I’ll see you there…I’m really a Dodger fan, so I have a little more to be excited about than the Phillies’ season this year, but there is a special place in my heart for the home town team. It’s day 3 for the Little Engines on-line tour. :::scott::: Welcome to the LITTLE ENGINES Issue Three Electronic Reading Tour! ————– Letters to a Grade School Teacher by Anonymous Students Dear Mrs xxxxxxxx, I wood like to make one thing cler.
