Letters to The Trough
We welcome your mail and comments. The following is a poem from an avid M.B.H.O.S. supporter.
The Monster PIGS -- A Halloween Poem by Blake R. Beazer (BYU - Class of 1995)
What is that noise? My knees are shaking. I can't keep my poise.
I'm frightened. I'm scared. "I want my MOM." I want her to see what's in there.
A Grunt, not a Growl. There again - GRUNT, GRUNT, GRUNT. What is on the prowl.
Mom hears my plea, and says I'll be fine. She opens the door. It's the Maggie Beazer Hall of Swine.
Love -- your biggest Fan -- DAD
New Frontiers Open with Blog
The M.B.H.O.S. is taking on a new frontier - the internet. Two weeks ago, The Hog Blog opened, allowing far-away pig lovers to converse and read The Trough. "Because of The Hog Blog, now those who don't have subscriptions are able to read The Trough and find out what's going on at the M.B.H.O.S." says owner and curator of the M.B.H.O.S. -- Maggie Beazer. So get on-line @ http://www.hogblog-mbhos.blogspot.com/ for The Trough polls, pictures, and more!

The PIG Cross-Stitch

Margaret,
I would like to request add space in the trough. I need two ads, one for my new company-Banana Inc.TM and one for my new magazine-BB. Banana Inc.TM is a company that helps starting companies grow and develop. BB is a magazine for all of the Beazer girls fifteen and younger. You can make the ads however you wish. Thank you so much!
Sincerely,
Anna M. Roberts
