Rev. Michael Chruchman
240 Bishop Avenue
vertican city, roma


Compliments of the season to you and members of your family.


My name is Rev. Michael Chruchman a member of Pope Benedict XVI, Papal
Visit to Chicago IL from 14th of January 2012 to 16th of January 2012.
On board Lufthansa airlines, LH5335 on route Rome to London Heathrow to
Chicago O'Hare international airport. At Heathrow international airport,
I meet a diplomat Mr. John Lopez with two truck boxes belonging to you
And the diplomat was seeking for an assistance which we did by giving
Him a papal tag which allowed him access to enter the United states of
America with the two truck boxes with each weighing 32 Pounds valued
3,000,000USD (Three million dollars) each. But unfortunately, the
Diplomat has lost your address and your nearest airport including your
Telephone numbers, probably because of the pressure from the airport
Authorities.



I personally assisted him to get his luggage out of the customs as He
claimed that the two truck box has a papal tag. Could you please?
Kindly contact Mr. John Lopez on email johnlopez02@rocketmail.com He is right there at the airport please contact him immediately for the delivery of this two truck boxes.


Note: your papal tag numbers are PT405ROME-IL and PT406ROME-IL.


Get back to me to confirm if you have received your two truck boxes.


May GOD bless you?

Dot Hacker has an awesome new EP imaginatively named Dot Hacker:


The music of Dot Hacker is architectural, built on a foundation of bold, manipulated tones and supported by lush eclectic textures and angular rhythm. The band’s enigmatic sound comes from the collaboration of friends and founding members, Josh Klinghoffer, Clint Walsh, Eric Gardner and Jonathan Hischke
“…a majestic four-song triumph reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins and the Jesus and Mary Chain…most are densely layered, lush productions that make you want to just sit back and listen.“- The Owl Mag

Panama - Magic (Midnight Magic Remix)
  Panama is a Sydney-based five piece founded by, Jarrah McCleary, a classically trained pianist from the age of six who grew up in the sticky heat of the Northern Territory. They’re coming out with their self-released debut single “Magic” (…nothing less than Magic!) worldwide on March 2nd. The single includes two remixes from Midnight Magic and Gavin Russom (Crystal Ark) which sound absolutely brilliant.  Eric Broucek (DFA) mixed the tracks.
 
“Australia's really been whipping out the big guns lately with some artists on the rise. Sydney-based Panama is sure to be one of them.” – Filter

Lance Herbstrong x Queen - Dragon Attack

Through stream-of-consciousness aural atmospherics, Lance Herbstrong takes you on a trip, sustaining musical momentum with sonic layers propelling the rhythms. The result is music that is ethereal and organic, of the air and of the earth, and always moving. The nation’s most esteemed climate change scientists described their first Lance Herbstrong show as a ‘motherf---ing Fun Bomb that just goes off inside you.’
