BUB’s taking a break from spring break to help her fellow friends.

Vote for BUB, Hamilton, Nala, or Murdock in the GiveLitter contest to help shelters get free litter: http://bit.ly/1nDYPER

It doesn’t matter who you vote for, because a total of 50,000 pounds of litter will be donated to animals in need regardless of who wins. If BUB wins first place, she will split 20,000 pounds of litter between her very own Bloomington Animal Shelter, and Ouabache Felines and Friends - a very small no-kill cat rescue in Terra Haute, IN that needs all the help it can get.

Thanks to World’s Best Cat Litter for making this possible.

I cannot help but hold onto a handful of times when what was spoken was a revolution in itself. #againstme

BUB would like your attention, please. Mid Hudson Animal Aid, a no-kill shelter in Beacon, NY needs help. A fire swept through their Isolation Ward and killed several cats, but they were able to successfully save and foster the remaining 160 homeless felines. They need to rebuild as soon as possible to continue their good work, and need help to raise the funds. For the next 24 hours, BUB will donate 100% of the net proceeds from anything purchased in the BUB STORE to help Mid Hudson Animal Aid:  http://store.lilbub.com/ You can also make a direct donation here: http://bit.ly/18benE4 A video about the fire: http://bit.ly/16m9N44 Their website: http://www.midhudsonanimalaid.org/ Even if you can’t contribute monetarily, sharing this post can go a long way. Thank you.

Catching Up With The Weeks

If there’s one thing The Weeks love more than music, it’s Mississippi.  They have an unadulterated love, a fierce loyalty that comes through in lyrics and melodies and conversations.  It’s a visceral sentiment pervading from their skin and popping from their bones, all of which hail from the rural outskirts of Mississippi’s capitol, Jackson. But, when the Magnolia State isn’t enough, they can also resort on their mistress: music.

“You have nothing else to do in a town like that,” Sam Williams, the group’s lead guitarist explains. “So we just started playing music.”

This was back when Williams was about fourteen years old, and the lineup of the group was a bit different then; it has shifted and shuffled throughout the years, bouncing from six guys down to four guys and most recently settling in with five twenty-something rock ‘n rollers including fraternal twins Cyle and Cain Barnes as well as Damien Bone, and Alex Collier.
