 AUGUST 2010 NEWSDUMPSTER
 | | OUR TOWN MAY BE SMALL, BUT IT'S THE WORLD LEADER IN LOLLIPOP CONSUMPTION. I LIED, BUT I LIKE THE IDEA. |
Fuel Costs Almost Two-Thirds Less Here than in Western Europe (ok, so we have to drive three times as far to get anywhere).
We're always happy to be back in Vermont after a long tour. Sure, we love visiting faraway places and gorging on exotic pies, but nothing spells home like h-m-o-e. Back in West Townshend for about a month, we've found a new appreciation for downhmoe things, such as- dirt roads
- meatless pies
- overt enthusiasm
- wilderness
- ordering tap water without feeling like a nun
- wooden houses
- going out for breakfast
- our porch
- corn
If you'd like to see a terrific photo history of our recent 2010 Wrong Side of the Road Tour, we've got the next best thing. We've posted the last of our 200-plus images from that trip.
Hungrytown: Proud Participants of the 20th Century.
Thanks to the miracle of photo play-ography, wherein a series of still images shown in rapid succession appears to be moving, and the wonderful bugs at GNAT-TV's "Black Fly Lounge" in Manchester, VT, we present our first ever, shall we say, "Video" page.

Upset because you can't make it to a Hungrytown show this month? Well, a visit to hungrytown.net or MySpace.com/hungrytown is kind of like visiting us at home in Vermont, without having to sit on a broken chair.
