Thursday July 31
Tiny Bill Cody

Event Type: performance / Location: CivicSquare Stage / Time: 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Tor Lukasik-Foss (aka tiny bill cody) is a visual artist, performer and writer whose art practice blends together drawing, sculptural assemblage with public performances of spoken word and music. His pieces often investigate issues relating to ideas of fame, obscurity and the public concert.

Fun for every age tiny bill cody delights crowds with thoughtful songs atop mountainous stools and inside sculptures like nothing you've seen before. As a new twist on the urban cowboy, his intelligent and artful observations of the contemporary urban experience, dressed up as folk songs, fascinate audiences everywhere.

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Now, I'm happy and lucky , I started take up real income.
It gets down to choose a proper companion who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the income with me.

You may get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
