	11:59am Stork: Herzlich Willkommen bei uns im Stork Club !
	12:00pm Jeff Golick: Where can I get a look atcha, Stork?
	12:01pm StringOFperils: Ready to get my Burt on, Stork. Guten Tag!
	12:01pm Irene Trudel: Good day, Herr Stork and clubsters! Looking forward to this Gary Burton Vibe-a-Thon!
	12:02pm chresti: Greetings swell Stork and movers and shakers in this joint!
	12:02pm Irene Trudel: Great pictures too!
	12:03pm Stork: Jeff GeeWhiz! chresti! StringOFperils!! glad ta see yuz!!
	12:05pm fred: Greeting Stork and all. The usual Glen Passaic for me (is it me or does that bottle fill itself and might explode any day?)
	12:05pm Stork: @Irene: 😊
	12:07pm Listening Out There: Doing dishes just goes with The Stork…
	12:07pm Stork: @fred: drink up while it's still legal. Those damn enviros with their Superfund dough will probably clean up the Passaic one day. Then what will we drink?
	🥁 12:07pm David (in London): Greetings Stork and assembled groovers.
	🥁 12:08pm WR: Hello folks. Burton has had many great and diverse collaborators, looking forward.
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hi Stork and Storkers! Ambling in to a corner table. Love the sound of Steve Swallow! No one like him!
	🥁 12:08pm David (in London): James, Jeff, String, Irene, Chrestikins, fred, Listening, WR, doctorjazz! Sunday Salutations good people.
	12:09pm Stork: Hey David (in London) - nice you're here. @WR: wish I had time for all his collabs - only got 5 hours today.
	12:11pm doctorjazz: Some Burton on the rocks this way please!
	12:11pm Stork: Hey doc! Lotta Steve Swallow today!
	12:14pm Stork: IRENE! So glad you're here! Irene will have some music by badal Roy (RIP) on her GTDR show tomorrow at noon EST! Check it out. Some live stuff Irene recorded at the WNYC studios some 25 (!!!!) years ago.
	12:22pm abbazabba: Stork!
	12:22pm fred: around that time (25 years ago) I was offered a job in Morristown. I didn't take it because I thought at the time of NJ as a cesspool of pollution, I had serious misgivings about health care in the US, and I didn't know about WFMU at the time. Weird to think that I'd never found the station had I moved to NJ at the time
	12:25pm Stork: abbazabba Me Do!
	12:26pm Stork: fred, that's hardly fair. NJ is a cesspool of pollution AND corruption
	🥁 12:29pm Listening Out There: Gary Burton's memoir is a good 'un. He was a prodigy! The photo of him playing vibes as a kid looks like a shrunken version of the adult. Also, his account of interviewing Julian Lage (at 14?) for admittance to Berklee is a hoot...
	🥁 12:31pm WR: I looked it up, the Lyric Suite composer is Corea.
	12:33pm fred: @Stork: I've lived in the suburbs of Paris most of my life, so NJ's corruption isn't that noticeable. The pollution is, and we do know about it here
	12:34pm StringOFperils: GB. Tell me it's not George Burns next week.
	12:38pm Listener Robert: Thanks for explaining today's schedule. I have a listener's trilemma from 3 to 5 PM (which I still think of as Bill Kelly's slot since that new guy pushed him out of the earlier slot). Penn Jillette's Sunday School is on then, but from my sampling of it, it's weak compared to his old phone-in radio show. But that's also when The Hound is live.
	12:41pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and Wolfganggang! I'm back from shoveling snow, and ready to uh vibe with you all. A double-walled containment vessel of the old Glen P, please Herr Barkeep.
	12:43pm Stork: One Glen P, VSOP coming right up, adamdoesit! Protects against frostbite.
	🥁 12:43pm duke: Hello Storklinigs
	🥁 12:44pm David (in London): Listening Out There - I imagine that in the kid photo GB just has a smaller moustache and a waistcoat that is slightly less psychedelic.
	🥁 12:46pm David (in London): Love the gratuitous use of fisheye on that Country Roads & Other Places cover. "Yeah Gary, don't worry. Just lean on that gate over there and we'll make it look, like totally psychedelic, yeah?"
	12:46pm Stork: Duke !
	12:50pm Stork: RE: StringOFperils: GB. Tell me it's not George Burns next week. Hee hee ! Thanks for the idea!
	🥁 12:51pm David (in London): Looking forward to 6 October, and Glenn Branca's birthday then...
	12:53pm Stork: David (in London) -- i try to restrict the birthdays to only those that fall on Sunday - otherwise every week would be like 3 or 4 must-do's.
	🥁 12:56pm David (in London): I was only kidding anyway Stork. I love Branca, but I'm not sure I need several solid hours of him at this stage of my life.
	12:58pm Stork: @David (in London) - I could definitely listen to Symphonies 2 and 6. After that, I'd need to rest for a week.
	12:58pm adamdoesit: Branca, that's the stuff! Barkeep, a Fernet to soothe what's left of my throat after that fine industrial waste.
	12:58pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and Storkles
	12:59pm alanr: Is it legal to be a regular listener and forget to sign in and say HI to Stork and everyone. Done. And speaking of Badal Roy, its amazing that two of Miles' percussionists both passed on recently. There is a nice short clip that includes a "duet" with Mtume and Badal from a live Miles' gig. youtu.be... (sorry to distract from the program)
	1:00pm fred: Glenn Branca... a show I came very close to missing, on Halloween day. I tried to get on a train but my sleeve caught on something, the doors closed, and I fell and bounced on a railing then the train and somehow ended up lying prone on a few inches of concrete as people were screaming. Took the next train and the show was a blast
	1:00pm Stork: Sam, a bottle of Fernet - no, believe me, he'll want the bottle - and a throat surgeon to adamdoesit's table.
	🥁 1:01pm David (in London): Hey Coela. Bloody Hell Fred, that was a Hell of a way start the evening. Saw him in mid 90s here in London. Amazing show, too. Loud, abrasive, and completely him.
	1:02pm fred: It was either Symphony 8 or 10, the rafters were shaking
	🥁 1:02pm Michael 98145: Stepping up to the typewriter to say hello. Lovely show.
	1:03pm coelacanth∅: Greetings David (iL)
	🥁 1:03pm David (in London): Hey Michael.
	1:04pm Stork: Hey fred, Michael 98145, coelacanth∅, and alanr - belated wel-kies.
	1:04pm Morgan: ah stork this is the stuff. Im sharing this with the neighbors. also baking bread and smoking a bowl. happy sunday all
	1:05pm Stork: Morgan! Sounds heavenly!!
	1:06pm Morgan: thanks for the tunes!
	🥁 1:06pm Michael 98145: Hey @David. a truly foggy day here in the township.
	1:08pm fred: It was the tenth; he was rolling on the ground at times while conducting, good times
	1:10pm doctorjazz: So lovely!
	1:12pm fred: I saw Branca a few more times, it didn't feel as intense, but then again I didn't repeat that warmup routine, so that's on me
	1:12pm adamdoesit: Morgan, doing it right! Someone should do a deep dive into Chuck Israels. Maybe his birthday will turn up on a Sunday some time.
	1:14pm chresti: Hi Davidkins in Londonkins!
	1:15pm chresti: My ex worked on a George Burns special @ the Moulin Rouge, in the 80s.
	1:16pm doctorjazz: Branca, a show I'll always remember. Saw him at the old Mudd Club with his old guitar Orchestra. Bumped into some tough guy and spilled his drink; he was furious. Don't know how he figured out which car was mine, but I had 4 slashed tires when I left the club (Branca was great, though I'm also not sure I need 4 hours worth).
	1:19pm StringOFperils: This is right purty. Haven't heard the tones of Paul Bley for a while.
	1:21pm doctorjazz: Chuck Israels, my Brooklyn College Jazz History professor! (And almost none in the large lecture hall had a clue that it was a big deal, including moi)
	1:21pm Stork: @StringOFperils the whole album is entrancing.
	1:24pm fred: @doc: It must have been a shock figuring that out! Did you revisit your memories of the lectures, were you in from the start, or did you just space out at the time with no memories to revisit?
	🥁 1:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo! ...been listening gratefully in the tub. Nice cover on 'New Crystal' - to me looks like Godzilla making an entrance - which I always enjoy...
	1:30pm Stork: Chick and Herbie Hancock really tore this up too, RevRabb. Enjoy the tub!
	1:31pm doctorjazz: @Fred, that class started me exploring jazz (something about going in order from Jelly Roll Morton to Satchmo, Duke, Bird, Mingus Trane and Ornette made it click in a way that random exploration (took Miles Smiles out of the library-couldn't make heads nor takes of it before the class) just didn't. But it was a while until I got to Bill Evans and Israels albums.
	1:33pm doctorjazz: Unfortunately, Israels never mentioned his gigs-he might have been playing with Evans, could have gone... NOW I feel bad...
	1:37pm doctorjazz: I actually was a very enthusiastic student in the class-we used The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz as our text.
	1:40pm fred: @doc: the weirdness of school... I should have been an English major, got pushed that way by the only teachers I remember (I even got in an exchange program with the US when I was no longer in that teacher's class). But I was kicked to computer science because I suck at German, which was required for humanities at the time
	1:42pm doctorjazz: I was a biology major, but took many music classes (and spent much time playing guitar on the quad).
	1:50pm adamdoesit: fred and doc, that kind of après coup is what college is to me now. If I'd known then what I know now; but what I know now is built on the experiences I had, unknowing, then. Really cool that you got to study with him, doc.
	1:54pm fred: A fun college memory was that a teacher caught me on my first (failed) attempt to read Finnegan's Wake. She told me not to come to her classes, and for the finals exam, instead of the mandatory business school topics (I was in that kind of program, because no German), I had my choice and went with "The American small town as seen by David Lynch".
	1:58pm doctorjazz: Israels was a good lecturer, and obviously had a passion for what he was teaching (how much I didn't realize at the time). But it was a big lecture class, just soaked in him playing tracks at the front of the hall and pointing out why they were important.
	2:03pm doctorjazz: Burton is another artist never got very familiar with. He was just everywhere, and didn't seem to be "breaking new ground" or"advancing the art form". My bad...
	2:04pm doctorjazz: That is a pretty wild sidetrack in a business program, @Fred!
	2:05pm Stork: I met a guy in freshman year who worshiped Burton and introduced me to his music. Took my hippie-ass a while to get into him, but Crystal Silence did it.
	2:07pm fred: @doc: the exam turned out to be a Lynch fan-fest, but all in English, so I don't feel like I stole that grade
	2:08pm Listener Robert: Did I just hear a quote from "Never on Sunday" in there?
	2:09pm adamdoesit: Stork, my first experiences of Gary Burton consisted of feeling annoyed to hear some vibes I liked and find out that it wasn't Milt Jackson. Eventually, I began to think, gee, if you like the way he sounds every time, maybe you can like him, too?
	2:09pm Stork: Could be Robert - I missed it.
	2:10pm adamdoesit: * only to find out they weren't, haben founden outen whozen playen, I was an English major and a lotta good it did me…
	2:11pm Listener Robert: It was in the bass or cello -- or my imagination.
	2:13pm Stork: Almost all vibes players got compared to Burton or Jackson for a really ong time. Vastly different sounds/techniques. Burton really gets credit for developing and advancing the 4-mallet thing. It's uncanny sometimes to remember he's ONE vibes player, not two. His technique is off the planet.
	2:15pm Listener Robert: Very impressive to someone like me who, when given chopsticks in a Chinese restaurant, asks for a fork.
	2:15pm Stork: The drummer you are hearing (Roy Haynes) will turn 97 on March 13.
	2:16pm Morgan: hes like a volcano
	2:17pm adamdoesit: <schaap>Roy Haynes!</schaap>
	2:19pm Morgan: stay down people
	2:20pm fred: Another weird college thing: once I switched to coding, the final project exam had the toughest for a 5-student team. I signed up with just one other, and he quit halfway through to intern at a music place called IRCAM. Fast forward 30 years, and I work there, and he was long gone when I got there. Serious foreshadowing at work
	2:22pm Doug Schulkind: Enjoyment!
	2:23pm adamdoesit: Doug, were you doing the spelling bee? I found that one ten minutes ago, and decided my work was done.
	2:25pm Doug Schulkind: @adamdoesit I cannot tell a lie!
	2:28pm adamdoesit: Doug, high five!
	2:28pm chresti: @fred, do you do coding there?
	2:29pm Stork: The Douglas has entered.
	2:29pm Listener Robert: So "groovy" was already a word in 1965? When did the jargon transition from "in the groove" to "groovy"? I forgot.
	🥁 2:29pm Michael 98145: That's what i love about this station. Just to really get to -hear- music. Thank you.
	🥁 2:31pm Michael 98145: I'm old enough to remember "programming." Does anyone even remember assemblers? And registers?
	2:31pm Stork: @Michael 98145: - words I utter and mutter often!
	🥁 2:31pm Michael 98145: sorry
	2:33pm Stork: @Listener Robert: pretty sure groovy was in use in the 50's by those beatnik-hopheads.
	2:33pm chresti: @Michael, I remember seeing those words whenever I looked at the want ads.
	2:33pm fred: @chresti: coding, yeah, a mere tech with nothing to do with music. But the location is great, makes it easy to go to shows, when such things happen. Sigh...
	2:35pm Listener Robert: "in the groove" vs. "groovy" right here -- books.google.com... I'm surprised "groovy" got started that early, but also that "in the groove" hardly got off the ground. But I do remember assemblers and registers.
	2:35pm chresti: Sounds like a nice place to work, @fred.
	🥁 2:35pm Michael 98145: don't forget to clear the accumulator
	2:39pm ?: Remove the quotation marks from the ngram viewer, @LR. Ngrams include punctuation marks, etc. https://tinyurl.com/4nzuxvh7
	2:39pm fred: @Michael98145: I don't write assembly, but I read it. Registers are still a thing, though I don't handle them directly, I sometimes have to figure out compiler bugs. @chresti: the location is nice, many people are greatly weird/weirdly great, but the admins are the usual suits
	2:40pm Listener Robert: More schocking was switching from American to British English and seeing the Ngram for "groovy" going back to ~1850! What could it possibly have meant then? It's understandable that "in the groove" started only in 1929, considering the progress of phonography.
	2:42pm adamdoesit: Michael 98145, "the mystic cores of memory, stretching from every breadboard…" "wasn't that Abraham Lincoln? Slim Gaillard introduces the movements of his Opera in Vout as "very tasty, very groovy" in… discogs says 1953?
	2:43pm Listener Robert: Thanks for the tip, ?, about the punctuation marks. Without quotes, "in the groove" was way more prevalent than "groovy" has ever been, but that just raises the further question of what "in the groove" used to mean before phonography. Must've been synonymous with "in a rut"!
	🥁 2:44pm Michael 98145: I can't keep up ... "Apache Groovy is an object oriented and Java syntax compatible programming language built for the Java platform. This dynamic language has many features which are similar to Python, Ruby, Smalltalk, and Pero."
	2:44pm ?: Encyclopedia Britannica referred to phonograph grooves as early as 1902.
	2:45pm Listener Robert: Here's that one: books.google.com...
	2:48pm ?: There are very early literal references to "in the groove" that don't refer to phonograph records. Ngram viewer doesn't distinguish figurative from literal.
	2:50pm adamdoesit: Knew I shoulda brought my OED today.
	🥁 2:53pm Michael 98145: Probably originally similar to "in a rut" .. groove-worn
	2:53pm fred: Tilling predates records by a few years at least
	2:53pm Stork: I remeber my dad bringing home the two huge volumes of the OED. It came with a magnifying glass, because each thin page in the 2500-or so page book had 4 original pages printed on it in teeny print. That was our rabbit-hole, the OED.
	🥁 2:53pm Michael 98145: indeed
	🥁 2:57pm Michael 98145: Oh. Love Piazzolla.
	2:57pm Morgan: i was about to say thanks and so long but no
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Mine's the single-volume Compact, from 1991, a lucky remainder table find… especially as it included that magnifier.
	2:59pm fred: @Morgan: "No" to "thanks" or to "so long"? The bartender needs to know
	3:00pm Stork: fred: "thanks and so long but no" is the name of a cocktail made specially here at the The Stork Club. Morgan ain't goin' anywhere.
	3:01pm Morgan: i meant no to ‘so long’—its a back to back fill in right? yes to thanks. im digging this all very much
	3:01pm Morgan: lol
	3:02pm fred: Speaking of drinks...
	3:02pm Stork: Yeah, Morgan. I'm usually on till 4 EST, but I'm going to 5 today - then Nick takes over for four hours - to cover for Lady C today.
	3:03pm Stork: Second week we've variations on the Pachelbel Canon
	3:03pm adamdoesit: A house cocktail I haven't tried? Barkeep, you've been holding out on me. Thanks and so long but no, up with a twist, and make it a double!
	3:03pm doctorjazz: Lovely!
	3:04pm Morgan: i didn’t know you did 4 hours typically! im fmu stream surfing recently and finding all sorts of new delights
	3:06pm Stork: Wait, adamdoesit, I'm getting confused. See, "Up With a Twist, Down in a Heap" is the name of yet another specialty brew hereabouts.
	3:07pm coelacanth∅: this track just gets better and better!
	🥁 3:08pm Michael 98145: stream surfing will be an olympic event
	3:09pm adamdoesit: Stork, only one thing to do: give me one of each, and a bucket of Coronas for the stream surfers over there.
	3:09pm Stork: Glad you stopped by here, Morgan. WFMU is a wonderland, as someone once sang.
	3:10pm Stork: The wheelbarrow is off in your direction, adamdoesit.
	3:11pm abbazabba: I remember reading a while ago how Gary Burton gave pat Metheny his first big break when he was in hi early teens. Burton let Metheny sit in with his band when Metheny was only a kid and the rest is history
	3:11pm fred: Does one have to make up a cocktail to be served here? OK then, what about a Hackensack Passaic Confluence?
	3:12pm Stork: @abbazabba: - exactly right - and they were a potent pair for quite a while.
	3:13pm abbazabba: Yeah, I’ve always thought that was really neat
	3:14pm adamdoesit: Good thing, too, Stork, cos my bucket's got a hole in it. fred, if you like that, you gotta try the Goethals and Gin.
	3:18pm Stork: Gary Burton deserved a credit on Metheny's debut LP Bright Size Life. But the official producer, Manfred Eicher left him off the album credits. Probably just an oversight, because Eicher is a pretty straight guy, but Metheny said it always bugged him that GB didn't get credited for overseeing the whole thing and helping Metheny out a lot.
	3:19pm abbazabba: Oh cool, Stork. I did not know that. I love that album
	3:21pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi all! HapPpPy Birthday, Gary Burton!
	3:23pm fred: @adamdoesit: I didn't even know there was such a thing, but apparently that cocktail is called a Newark Bay ("One blue crab in Newark Bay has enough dioxin to give somebody cancer" sez Wikithing)
	3:26pm Listening Out There: EST = Evans Standard Time
	3:29pm coelacanth∅: hmm, this goethals & gin smells like a rubber dog toy...
	3:29pm Stork: @Listening Out There: - EST - like!!
	3:29pm coelacanth∅: ...and i think i have a hole in my neck suddenly
	3:30pm Stork: coelacanth∅: - ahh, your palette is intact, if not your neck. Well, you'll just have to drink faster.
	3:32pm coelacanth∅: yes i just dropped the rest of the drink down my throat. glass & all. excuse me i have to use the restroom. ohp, never mind.
	3:33pm Stork: Times were, a Newark Bay was what your basic Sunday-brunch Bloody Mary is today. We've all gone soft.
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i've gone really soft. in fact i can feel my pelvis dissolving. Bartender, i'll have another please!
	🥁 3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...stolen WiFis gave out for a good bit there ...it'll tell me I got four bars & still no go - maybe too many people in the gym using it ...glad to be back - & resisting vibes puns for which I think I deserve a drink...
	🥁 3:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& tho ♒︎Aquarius is the sign of energy waves ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎...
	3:37pm adamdoesit: coel, fred, and stork, I like to think of the Goethals & Gin as what a martini would be if it woke up at 3am on the waterfront in Elizabeth. coel is correct in his use of an &, the open ends of which, historically, were used as a pictogram indicate the section of entrails that the drink typically dissolves.
	3:37pm chresti: Give me what you're giving coel, I need to dissolve too!
	3:37pm Stork: One double Vibrator coming up for RevRabb
	3:39pm coelacanth∅: it's true however that in the early 80s i drove the pulaski skyway twice almost every weekend for a while, and one or two miles of it always smelled strongly like a newly opened hard rubber dog toy. it's also true that the hartz factory was right there.
	3:41pm Stork: One lead-lined bucket of Raritan River Special Sludge for chresti !
	3:41pm fred: A round of Newark Bay for all up to it, barkeep!
	3:46pm StringOFperils: Don't know what it is but I'll drink it.
	3:47pm fred: @SOP: nobody knows what it is, enjoy!
	3:47pm adamdoesit: yes, please! The Newark Bay, a classic turn of the century poisoner's punch, is also known as the Arthur Kill, after the last words uttered by regulars at inventor Arthur Dumbleway's tavern.
	3:51pm coelacanth∅: haha
	3:52pm Stork: Well, I say no-one should have to face the stomach-pump alone. Drinks all around! The service people will be passing among you in HazMat suits, Don't be alarmed.
	3:54pm Stork: Larry Coryell trippin'!
	3:59pm abbazabba: Yeah, coryell was fun on that one
	3:59pm Stork: Prepare for overtime! Please stay seated (or standing, or walking, or , like yeah, whatever). We are going long - another hour of bemusement!!
	🥁 4:01pm David (in London): I'm really digging this cover theme of 'Gary leaning on a fence'. It obviously worked so well in '66 that they reprised it in '68.
	4:02pm Doug Schulkind: Stork is the ace of Clubs. (And yes, I am very proud of myself.)
	4:02pm Stork: GB's first studio work was with Hank Garland, Chet Atkins and those kinda guys.
	4:04pm Stork: Dougleton!
	4:05pm adamdoesit: Standing or walking are probably out at this point. How about a slow slide off the barstool, and a round of Rusty Rahways for the assembled?
	4:10pm Stork: I see adamdoesit already filling his beer-hat tanks from the sweet sweet casks of Rusty R's, retrieved from the rat-infested catacombs below.
	4:19pm Ike: Get over here and gimme a fancy-pants non-alky cocktail, bar-critter!
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1920: 46 years ago today, Paul Robeson passed away
	4:20pm Stork: PaulRobeson1920: greetings.
	4:21pm fred: Another NB for Ike!
	4:21pm Listener Robert: Can I get a Westchester Creek Canal with a Blue Coal barge on it?
	4:22pm Stork: Ike!! No alcohol? So just your usual Benzedrine?
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Warm greetings from Huntington NY! I’m listening with my Grandfather (he is taking a nap and I am on the comments board)
	4:23pm Stork: Right away, Listener Robert. Liquify that for you first, or should we bring a spoon?
	4:25pm Listener Robert: I think the swizzle stick will be sufficient. And yes, I am listening to the Hound, but the comments are more fun here. (Get the Duck Soup reference?) From 3 to 4 I was Twitching Penn's Sunday School with the Hound on in the background.
	🥁 4:26pm David (in London): Or a spork. This is the Spork Club after all...
	4:31pm tracy in LA: i grew up in Sayreville, sometimes we called the cops because of persistent overwhelming bad smells. We always got the same reply.... "food additives"... as though that would calm us. shots of food additives all around!
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: anybody up for a round of used condoms & hypodermic needles-on-the-beach?
	4:34pm Stork: Hail, tracy in LA ! I notice you put about 3000 miles between you and Sayreville. Good move.
	4:35pm Ike: @Stork@4:22, you betcha! And throw in some of that pseudo while you're at it (assuming the Paul Harvey bikers are still distributing it).
	4:36pm Listener Robert: Kaz's Underworld had a series of attempted "orders" by the junkie who just wanted some heroin.
	4:37pm Stork: David (in London) - sounds like a good marathon premium. Sporks emblazone with the Stork Club emblem - which I have yet to create.
	4:37pm adamdoesit: coel, would those be coney island whitefish, bone-in?
	🥁 4:38pm David (in London): Stork's Sporks! Right, gotta split now. Thanks Spork, er, sorry, Stork, for a really swinging show today. Toodles groovers and have a good week.
	4:39pm Morgan: oh lovely Stork
	4:40pm Stork: Go well, and come on back soon, David (in London) !!
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: i'm lucky it's not ever stinky here (except in the bar sometimes) but the river's another story. i have (had?) a friend who'd swim in it with friends when it was very hot out. she slept over sometimes and the smell that persisted in her dreads and her dog was ...well, an acquired taste.
	4:40pm chresti: Toodle-loo Davidkins!
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: ...don't know if it's a coincidence that that river flowed up here from new jersey!
	4:41pm coelacanth∅: cheerio David
	4:44pm doctorjazz: Assume stationary bike and NFL playoff time (together, of course), thanks for a great tribute, Stork!
	4:44pm Stork: HEY HEY HEY, YOU LUVVIES!! THANX FOR THE WARMTH AND THE FUZZIES ON THIS COLD COLD JANUARY DAY! REALLY LOVED GROOVING THE GROOVY GROOVES WITH THE GROOVIEST (THAT'S YOU, HEY!!).

	12:03pm Stork: Jeff GeeWhiz! chresti! StringOFperils!! glad ta see yuz!!
	12:05pm fred: Greeting Stork and all. The usual Glen Passaic for me (is it me or does that bottle fill itself and might explode any day?)
	12:05pm Stork: @Irene: 😊
	12:07pm Listening Out There: Doing dishes just goes with The Stork…
	12:07pm Stork: @fred: drink up while it's still legal. Those damn enviros with their Superfund dough will probably clean up the Passaic one day. Then what will we drink?
	🥁 12:07pm David (in London): Greetings Stork and assembled groovers.
	🥁 12:08pm WR: Hello folks. Burton has had many great and diverse collaborators, looking forward.
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hi Stork and Storkers! Ambling in to a corner table. Love the sound of Steve Swallow! No one like him!
	🥁 12:08pm David (in London): James, Jeff, String, Irene, Chrestikins, fred, Listening, WR, doctorjazz! Sunday Salutations good people.
	12:09pm Stork: Hey David (in London) - nice you're here. @WR: wish I had time for all his collabs - only got 5 hours today.
	12:11pm doctorjazz: Some Burton on the rocks this way please!
	12:11pm Stork: Hey doc! Lotta Steve Swallow today!
	12:14pm Stork: IRENE! So glad you're here! Irene will have some music by badal Roy (RIP) on her GTDR show tomorrow at noon EST! Check it out. Some live stuff Irene recorded at the WNYC studios some 25 (!!!!) years ago.
	12:22pm abbazabba: Stork!
	12:22pm fred: around that time (25 years ago) I was offered a job in Morristown. I didn't take it because I thought at the time of NJ as a cesspool of pollution, I had serious misgivings about health care in the US, and I didn't know about WFMU at the time. Weird to think that I'd never found the station had I moved to NJ at the time
	12:25pm Stork: abbazabba Me Do!
	12:26pm Stork: fred, that's hardly fair. NJ is a cesspool of pollution AND corruption
	🥁 12:29pm Listening Out There: Gary Burton's memoir is a good 'un. He was a prodigy! The photo of him playing vibes as a kid looks like a shrunken version of the adult. Also, his account of interviewing Julian Lage (at 14?) for admittance to Berklee is a hoot...
	🥁 12:31pm WR: I looked it up, the Lyric Suite composer is Corea.
	12:33pm fred: @Stork: I've lived in the suburbs of Paris most of my life, so NJ's corruption isn't that noticeable. The pollution is, and we do know about it here
	12:34pm StringOFperils: GB. Tell me it's not George Burns next week.
	12:38pm Listener Robert: Thanks for explaining today's schedule. I have a listener's trilemma from 3 to 5 PM (which I still think of as Bill Kelly's slot since that new guy pushed him out of the earlier slot). Penn Jillette's Sunday School is on then, but from my sampling of it, it's weak compared to his old phone-in radio show. But that's also when The Hound is live.
	12:41pm adamdoesit: Hello Stork and Wolfganggang! I'm back from shoveling snow, and ready to uh vibe with you all. A double-walled containment vessel of the old Glen P, please Herr Barkeep.
	12:43pm Stork: One Glen P, VSOP coming right up, adamdoesit! Protects against frostbite.
	🥁 12:43pm duke: Hello Storklinigs
	🥁 12:44pm David (in London): Listening Out There - I imagine that in the kid photo GB just has a smaller moustache and a waistcoat that is slightly less psychedelic.
	🥁 12:46pm David (in London): Love the gratuitous use of fisheye on that Country Roads & Other Places cover. "Yeah Gary, don't worry. Just lean on that gate over there and we'll make it look, like totally psychedelic, yeah?"
	12:46pm Stork: Duke !
	12:50pm Stork: RE: StringOFperils: GB. Tell me it's not George Burns next week. Hee hee ! Thanks for the idea!
	🥁 12:51pm David (in London): Looking forward to 6 October, and Glenn Branca's birthday then...
	12:53pm Stork: David (in London) -- i try to restrict the birthdays to only those that fall on Sunday - otherwise every week would be like 3 or 4 must-do's.
	🥁 12:56pm David (in London): I was only kidding anyway Stork. I love Branca, but I'm not sure I need several solid hours of him at this stage of my life.
	12:58pm Stork: @David (in London) - I could definitely listen to Symphonies 2 and 6. After that, I'd need to rest for a week.
	12:58pm adamdoesit: Branca, that's the stuff! Barkeep, a Fernet to soothe what's left of my throat after that fine industrial waste.
	12:58pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and Storkles
	12:59pm alanr: Is it legal to be a regular listener and forget to sign in and say HI to Stork and everyone. Done. And speaking of Badal Roy, its amazing that two of Miles' percussionists both passed on recently. There is a nice short clip that includes a "duet" with Mtume and Badal from a live Miles' gig. youtu.be... (sorry to distract from the program)
	1:00pm fred: Glenn Branca... a show I came very close to missing, on Halloween day. I tried to get on a train but my sleeve caught on something, the doors closed, and I fell and bounced on a railing then the train and somehow ended up lying prone on a few inches of concrete as people were screaming. Took the next train and the show was a blast
	1:00pm Stork: Sam, a bottle of Fernet - no, believe me, he'll want the bottle - and a throat surgeon to adamdoesit's table.
	🥁 1:01pm David (in London): Hey Coela. Bloody Hell Fred, that was a Hell of a way start the evening. Saw him in mid 90s here in London. Amazing show, too. Loud, abrasive, and completely him.
	1:02pm fred: It was either Symphony 8 or 10, the rafters were shaking
	🥁 1:02pm Michael 98145: Stepping up to the typewriter to say hello. Lovely show.
	1:03pm coelacanth∅: Greetings David (iL)
	🥁 1:03pm David (in London): Hey Michael.
	1:04pm Stork: Hey fred, Michael 98145, coelacanth∅, and alanr - belated wel-kies.
	1:04pm Morgan: ah stork this is the stuff. Im sharing this with the neighbors. also baking bread and smoking a bowl. happy sunday all
	1:05pm Stork: Morgan! Sounds heavenly!!
	1:06pm Morgan: thanks for the tunes!
	🥁 1:06pm Michael 98145: Hey @David. a truly foggy day here in the township.
	1:08pm fred: It was the tenth; he was rolling on the ground at times while conducting, good times
	1:10pm doctorjazz: So lovely!
	1:12pm fred: I saw Branca a few more times, it didn't feel as intense, but then again I didn't repeat that warmup routine, so that's on me
	1:12pm adamdoesit: Morgan, doing it right! Someone should do a deep dive into Chuck Israels. Maybe his birthday will turn up on a Sunday some time.
	1:14pm chresti: Hi Davidkins in Londonkins!
	1:15pm chresti: My ex worked on a George Burns special @ the Moulin Rouge, in the 80s.
	1:16pm doctorjazz: Branca, a show I'll always remember. Saw him at the old Mudd Club with his old guitar Orchestra. Bumped into some tough guy and spilled his drink; he was furious. Don't know how he figured out which car was mine, but I had 4 slashed tires when I left the club (Branca was great, though I'm also not sure I need 4 hours worth).
	1:19pm StringOFperils: This is right purty. Haven't heard the tones of Paul Bley for a while.
	1:21pm doctorjazz: Chuck Israels, my Brooklyn College Jazz History professor! (And almost none in the large lecture hall had a clue that it was a big deal, including moi)
	1:21pm Stork: @StringOFperils the whole album is entrancing.
	1:24pm fred: @doc: It must have been a shock figuring that out! Did you revisit your memories of the lectures, were you in from the start, or did you just space out at the time with no memories to revisit?
	🥁 1:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo! ...been listening gratefully in the tub. Nice cover on 'New Crystal' - to me looks like Godzilla making an entrance - which I always enjoy...
	1:30pm Stork: Chick and Herbie Hancock really tore this up too, RevRabb. Enjoy the tub!
	1:31pm doctorjazz: @Fred, that class started me exploring jazz (something about going in order from Jelly Roll Morton to Satchmo, Duke, Bird, Mingus Trane and Ornette made it click in a way that random exploration (took Miles Smiles out of the library-couldn't make heads nor takes of it before the class) just didn't. But it was a while until I got to Bill Evans and Israels albums.
	1:33pm doctorjazz: Unfortunately, Israels never mentioned his gigs-he might have been playing with Evans, could have gone... NOW I feel bad...
	1:37pm doctorjazz: I actually was a very enthusiastic student in the class-we used The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz as our text.
	1:40pm fred: @doc: the weirdness of school... I should have been an English major, got pushed that way by the only teachers I remember (I even got in an exchange program with the US when I was no longer in that teacher's class). But I was kicked to computer science because I suck at German, which was required for humanities at the time
	1:42pm doctorjazz: I was a biology major, but took many music classes (and spent much time playing guitar on the quad).
	1:50pm adamdoesit: fred and doc, that kind of après coup is what college is to me now. If I'd known then what I know now; but what I know now is built on the experiences I had, unknowing, then. Really cool that you got to study with him, doc.
	1:54pm fred: A fun college memory was that a teacher caught me on my first (failed) attempt to read Finnegan's Wake. She told me not to come to her classes, and for the finals exam, instead of the mandatory business school topics (I was in that kind of program, because no German), I had my choice and went with "The American small town as seen by David Lynch".
	1:58pm doctorjazz: Israels was a good lecturer, and obviously had a passion for what he was teaching (how much I didn't realize at the time). But it was a big lecture class, just soaked in him playing tracks at the front of the hall and pointing out why they were important.
	2:03pm doctorjazz: Burton is another artist never got very familiar with. He was just everywhere, and didn't seem to be "breaking new ground" or"advancing the art form". My bad...
	2:04pm doctorjazz: That is a pretty wild sidetrack in a business program, @Fred!
	2:05pm Stork: I met a guy in freshman year who worshiped Burton and introduced me to his music. Took my hippie-ass a while to get into him, but Crystal Silence did it.
	2:07pm fred: @doc: the exam turned out to be a Lynch fan-fest, but all in English, so I don't feel like I stole that grade
	2:08pm Listener Robert: Did I just hear a quote from "Never on Sunday" in there?
	2:09pm adamdoesit: Stork, my first experiences of Gary Burton consisted of feeling annoyed to hear some vibes I liked and find out that it wasn't Milt Jackson. Eventually, I began to think, gee, if you like the way he sounds every time, maybe you can like him, too?
	2:09pm Stork: Could be Robert - I missed it.
	2:10pm adamdoesit: * only to find out they weren't, haben founden outen whozen playen, I was an English major and a lotta good it did me…
	2:11pm Listener Robert: It was in the bass or cello -- or my imagination.
	2:13pm Stork: Almost all vibes players got compared to Burton or Jackson for a really ong time. Vastly different sounds/techniques. Burton really gets credit for developing and advancing the 4-mallet thing. It's uncanny sometimes to remember he's ONE vibes player, not two. His technique is off the planet.
	2:15pm Listener Robert: Very impressive to someone like me who, when given chopsticks in a Chinese restaurant, asks for a fork.
	2:15pm Stork: The drummer you are hearing (Roy Haynes) will turn 97 on March 13.
	2:16pm Morgan: hes like a volcano
	2:17pm adamdoesit: <schaap>Roy Haynes!</schaap>
	2:19pm Morgan: stay down people
	2:20pm fred: Another weird college thing: once I switched to coding, the final project exam had the toughest for a 5-student team. I signed up with just one other, and he quit halfway through to intern at a music place called IRCAM. Fast forward 30 years, and I work there, and he was long gone when I got there. Serious foreshadowing at work
	2:22pm Doug Schulkind: Enjoyment!
	2:23pm adamdoesit: Doug, were you doing the spelling bee? I found that one ten minutes ago, and decided my work was done.
	2:25pm Doug Schulkind: @adamdoesit I cannot tell a lie!
	2:28pm adamdoesit: Doug, high five!
	2:28pm chresti: @fred, do you do coding there?
	2:29pm Stork: The Douglas has entered.
	2:29pm Listener Robert: So "groovy" was already a word in 1965? When did the jargon transition from "in the groove" to "groovy"? I forgot.
	🥁 2:29pm Michael 98145: That's what i love about this station. Just to really get to -hear- music. Thank you.
	🥁 2:31pm Michael 98145: I'm old enough to remember "programming." Does anyone even remember assemblers? And registers?
	2:31pm Stork: @Michael 98145: - words I utter and mutter often!
	🥁 2:31pm Michael 98145: sorry
	2:33pm Stork: @Listener Robert: pretty sure groovy was in use in the 50's by those beatnik-hopheads.
	2:33pm chresti: @Michael, I remember seeing those words whenever I looked at the want ads.
	2:33pm fred: @chresti: coding, yeah, a mere tech with nothing to do with music. But the location is great, makes it easy to go to shows, when such things happen. Sigh...
	2:35pm Listener Robert: "in the groove" vs. "groovy" right here -- books.google.com... I'm surprised "groovy" got started that early, but also that "in the groove" hardly got off the ground. But I do remember assemblers and registers.
	2:35pm chresti: Sounds like a nice place to work, @fred.
	🥁 2:35pm Michael 98145: don't forget to clear the accumulator
	2:39pm ?: Remove the quotation marks from the ngram viewer, @LR. Ngrams include punctuation marks, etc. https://tinyurl.com/4nzuxvh7
	2:39pm fred: @Michael98145: I don't write assembly, but I read it. Registers are still a thing, though I don't handle them directly, I sometimes have to figure out compiler bugs. @chresti: the location is nice, many people are greatly weird/weirdly great, but the admins are the usual suits
	2:40pm Listener Robert: More schocking was switching from American to British English and seeing the Ngram for "groovy" going back to ~1850! What could it possibly have meant then? It's understandable that "in the groove" started only in 1929, considering the progress of phonography.
	2:42pm adamdoesit: Michael 98145, "the mystic cores of memory, stretching from every breadboard…" "wasn't that Abraham Lincoln? Slim Gaillard introduces the movements of his Opera in Vout as "very tasty, very groovy" in… discogs says 1953?
	2:43pm Listener Robert: Thanks for the tip, ?, about the punctuation marks. Without quotes, "in the groove" was way more prevalent than "groovy" has ever been, but that just raises the further question of what "in the groove" used to mean before phonography. Must've been synonymous with "in a rut"!
	🥁 2:44pm Michael 98145: I can't keep up ... "Apache Groovy is an object oriented and Java syntax compatible programming language built for the Java platform. This dynamic language has many features which are similar to Python, Ruby, Smalltalk, and Pero."
	2:44pm ?: Encyclopedia Britannica referred to phonograph grooves as early as 1902.
	2:45pm Listener Robert: Here's that one: books.google.com...
	2:48pm ?: There are very early literal references to "in the groove" that don't refer to phonograph records. Ngram viewer doesn't distinguish figurative from literal.
	2:50pm adamdoesit: Knew I shoulda brought my OED today.
	🥁 2:53pm Michael 98145: Probably originally similar to "in a rut" .. groove-worn
	2:53pm fred: Tilling predates records by a few years at least
	2:53pm Stork: I remeber my dad bringing home the two huge volumes of the OED. It came with a magnifying glass, because each thin page in the 2500-or so page book had 4 original pages printed on it in teeny print. That was our rabbit-hole, the OED.
	🥁 2:53pm Michael 98145: indeed
	🥁 2:57pm Michael 98145: Oh. Love Piazzolla.
	2:57pm Morgan: i was about to say thanks and so long but no
	2:58pm adamdoesit: Mine's the single-volume Compact, from 1991, a lucky remainder table find… especially as it included that magnifier.
	2:59pm fred: @Morgan: "No" to "thanks" or to "so long"? The bartender needs to know
	3:00pm Stork: fred: "thanks and so long but no" is the name of a cocktail made specially here at the The Stork Club. Morgan ain't goin' anywhere.
	3:01pm Morgan: i meant no to ‘so long’—its a back to back fill in right? yes to thanks. im digging this all very much
	3:01pm Morgan: lol
	3:02pm fred: Speaking of drinks...
	3:02pm Stork: Yeah, Morgan. I'm usually on till 4 EST, but I'm going to 5 today - then Nick takes over for four hours - to cover for Lady C today.
	3:03pm Stork: Second week we've variations on the Pachelbel Canon
	3:03pm adamdoesit: A house cocktail I haven't tried? Barkeep, you've been holding out on me. Thanks and so long but no, up with a twist, and make it a double!
	3:03pm doctorjazz: Lovely!
	3:04pm Morgan: i didn’t know you did 4 hours typically! im fmu stream surfing recently and finding all sorts of new delights
	3:06pm Stork: Wait, adamdoesit, I'm getting confused. See, "Up With a Twist, Down in a Heap" is the name of yet another specialty brew hereabouts.
	3:07pm coelacanth∅: this track just gets better and better!
	🥁 3:08pm Michael 98145: stream surfing will be an olympic event
	3:09pm adamdoesit: Stork, only one thing to do: give me one of each, and a bucket of Coronas for the stream surfers over there.
	3:09pm Stork: Glad you stopped by here, Morgan. WFMU is a wonderland, as someone once sang.
	3:10pm Stork: The wheelbarrow is off in your direction, adamdoesit.
	3:11pm abbazabba: I remember reading a while ago how Gary Burton gave pat Metheny his first big break when he was in hi early teens. Burton let Metheny sit in with his band when Metheny was only a kid and the rest is history
	3:11pm fred: Does one have to make up a cocktail to be served here? OK then, what about a Hackensack Passaic Confluence?
	3:12pm Stork: @abbazabba: - exactly right - and they were a potent pair for quite a while.
	3:13pm abbazabba: Yeah, I’ve always thought that was really neat
	3:14pm adamdoesit: Good thing, too, Stork, cos my bucket's got a hole in it. fred, if you like that, you gotta try the Goethals and Gin.
	3:18pm Stork: Gary Burton deserved a credit on Metheny's debut LP Bright Size Life. But the official producer, Manfred Eicher left him off the album credits. Probably just an oversight, because Eicher is a pretty straight guy, but Metheny said it always bugged him that GB didn't get credited for overseeing the whole thing and helping Metheny out a lot.
	3:19pm abbazabba: Oh cool, Stork. I did not know that. I love that album
	3:21pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi all! HapPpPy Birthday, Gary Burton!
	3:23pm fred: @adamdoesit: I didn't even know there was such a thing, but apparently that cocktail is called a Newark Bay ("One blue crab in Newark Bay has enough dioxin to give somebody cancer" sez Wikithing)
	3:26pm Listening Out There: EST = Evans Standard Time
	3:29pm coelacanth∅: hmm, this goethals & gin smells like a rubber dog toy...
	3:29pm Stork: @Listening Out There: - EST - like!!
	3:29pm coelacanth∅: ...and i think i have a hole in my neck suddenly
	3:30pm Stork: coelacanth∅: - ahh, your palette is intact, if not your neck. Well, you'll just have to drink faster.
	3:32pm coelacanth∅: yes i just dropped the rest of the drink down my throat. glass & all. excuse me i have to use the restroom. ohp, never mind.
	3:33pm Stork: Times were, a Newark Bay was what your basic Sunday-brunch Bloody Mary is today. We've all gone soft.
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i've gone really soft. in fact i can feel my pelvis dissolving. Bartender, i'll have another please!
	🥁 3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...stolen WiFis gave out for a good bit there ...it'll tell me I got four bars & still no go - maybe too many people in the gym using it ...glad to be back - & resisting vibes puns for which I think I deserve a drink...
	🥁 3:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& tho ♒︎Aquarius is the sign of energy waves ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎ ♒︎...
	3:37pm adamdoesit: coel, fred, and stork, I like to think of the Goethals & Gin as what a martini would be if it woke up at 3am on the waterfront in Elizabeth. coel is correct in his use of an &, the open ends of which, historically, were used as a pictogram indicate the section of entrails that the drink typically dissolves.
	3:37pm chresti: Give me what you're giving coel, I need to dissolve too!
	3:37pm Stork: One double Vibrator coming up for RevRabb
	3:39pm coelacanth∅: it's true however that in the early 80s i drove the pulaski skyway twice almost every weekend for a while, and one or two miles of it always smelled strongly like a newly opened hard rubber dog toy. it's also true that the hartz factory was right there.
	3:41pm Stork: One lead-lined bucket of Raritan River Special Sludge for chresti !
	3:41pm fred: A round of Newark Bay for all up to it, barkeep!
	3:46pm StringOFperils: Don't know what it is but I'll drink it.
	3:47pm fred: @SOP: nobody knows what it is, enjoy!
	3:47pm adamdoesit: yes, please! The Newark Bay, a classic turn of the century poisoner's punch, is also known as the Arthur Kill, after the last words uttered by regulars at inventor Arthur Dumbleway's tavern.
	3:51pm coelacanth∅: haha
	3:52pm Stork: Well, I say no-one should have to face the stomach-pump alone. Drinks all around! The service people will be passing among you in HazMat suits, Don't be alarmed.
	3:54pm Stork: Larry Coryell trippin'!
	3:59pm abbazabba: Yeah, coryell was fun on that one
	3:59pm Stork: Prepare for overtime! Please stay seated (or standing, or walking, or , like yeah, whatever). We are going long - another hour of bemusement!!
	🥁 4:01pm David (in London): I'm really digging this cover theme of 'Gary leaning on a fence'. It obviously worked so well in '66 that they reprised it in '68.
	4:02pm Doug Schulkind: Stork is the ace of Clubs. (And yes, I am very proud of myself.)
	4:02pm Stork: GB's first studio work was with Hank Garland, Chet Atkins and those kinda guys.
	4:04pm Stork: Dougleton!
	4:05pm adamdoesit: Standing or walking are probably out at this point. How about a slow slide off the barstool, and a round of Rusty Rahways for the assembled?
	4:10pm Stork: I see adamdoesit already filling his beer-hat tanks from the sweet sweet casks of Rusty R's, retrieved from the rat-infested catacombs below.
	4:19pm Ike: Get over here and gimme a fancy-pants non-alky cocktail, bar-critter!
	4:19pm PaulRobeson1920: 46 years ago today, Paul Robeson passed away
	4:20pm Stork: PaulRobeson1920: greetings.
	4:21pm fred: Another NB for Ike!
	4:21pm Listener Robert: Can I get a Westchester Creek Canal with a Blue Coal barge on it?
	4:22pm Stork: Ike!! No alcohol? So just your usual Benzedrine?
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Warm greetings from Huntington NY! I’m listening with my Grandfather (he is taking a nap and I am on the comments board)
	4:23pm Stork: Right away, Listener Robert. Liquify that for you first, or should we bring a spoon?
	4:25pm Listener Robert: I think the swizzle stick will be sufficient. And yes, I am listening to the Hound, but the comments are more fun here. (Get the Duck Soup reference?) From 3 to 4 I was Twitching Penn's Sunday School with the Hound on in the background.
	🥁 4:26pm David (in London): Or a spork. This is the Spork Club after all...
	4:31pm tracy in LA: i grew up in Sayreville, sometimes we called the cops because of persistent overwhelming bad smells. We always got the same reply.... "food additives"... as though that would calm us. shots of food additives all around!
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: anybody up for a round of used condoms & hypodermic needles-on-the-beach?
	4:34pm Stork: Hail, tracy in LA ! I notice you put about 3000 miles between you and Sayreville. Good move.
	4:35pm Ike: @Stork@4:22, you betcha! And throw in some of that pseudo while you're at it (assuming the Paul Harvey bikers are still distributing it).
	4:36pm Listener Robert: Kaz's Underworld had a series of attempted "orders" by the junkie who just wanted some heroin.
	4:37pm Stork: David (in London) - sounds like a good marathon premium. Sporks emblazone with the Stork Club emblem - which I have yet to create.
	4:37pm adamdoesit: coel, would those be coney island whitefish, bone-in?
	🥁 4:38pm David (in London): Stork's Sporks! Right, gotta split now. Thanks Spork, er, sorry, Stork, for a really swinging show today. Toodles groovers and have a good week.
	4:39pm Morgan: oh lovely Stork
	4:40pm Stork: Go well, and come on back soon, David (in London) !!
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: i'm lucky it's not ever stinky here (except in the bar sometimes) but the river's another story. i have (had?) a friend who'd swim in it with friends when it was very hot out. she slept over sometimes and the smell that persisted in her dreads and her dog was ...well, an acquired taste.
	4:40pm chresti: Toodle-loo Davidkins!
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: ...don't know if it's a coincidence that that river flowed up here from new jersey!
	4:41pm coelacanth∅: cheerio David
	4:44pm doctorjazz: Assume stationary bike and NFL playoff time (together, of course), thanks for a great tribute, Stork!
	4:44pm Stork: HEY HEY HEY, YOU LUVVIES!! THANX FOR THE WARMTH AND THE FUZZIES ON THIS COLD COLD JANUARY DAY! REALLY LOVED GROOVING THE GROOVY GROOVES WITH THE GROOVIEST (THAT'S YOU, HEY!!). DJ NO-GOOD NICK DOIN' YEOMEN DUTY TODAY AND HE'S RIGHT HERE AT THE TOP 'O THE HOUR: wfmu.org... SEE YUZ NEXT-EES!!!! MWAAAHHH!!!
	4:44pm Stork: Thanks, Doc and all aboard!!
	4:45pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Stork!
	4:46pm Morgan: thank you Stork
	4:47pm djnogoodnick: Hello Stork! Chill vibes..
	4:49pm djnogoodnick: Literally I mean!
	4:49pm chresti: Thanks Stork!
	4:51pm Listener Robert: Thanks, Stork, the service was great.
	4:51pm Stork: djnogoodnick: greetz and thank u thank u for doing the heavy lifting today!!
	🥁 4:51pm duke: Thanks Stork. Really enjoyed it.
	4:52pm Wenzo Toad: thanks storm i mean stork
	4:52pm Stork: chresti, morgan L Robert - Duke!! thanks you all and all y'all!
	4:53pm Stork: Been called MUUUCH worse, Wenzo Toad.
	4:54pm adamdoesit: Thanks for the great show, Stork, and the fun hang, everyone! Guests have arrived (WFMU friends, natch), but I'll be with you in spirits til the end. Here's toxic sludge in yer eye!
	🥁 4:55pm WR: Stork, why you say thanks at quarter before. Why are the lights blinking off? Ok ok, will pay my tab and get my coat. You can call the bouncer off.
	4:55pm PaulRobeson1920: Thanks Stork. Good show!
	4:56pm Stork: WR, adamdoesit, PaulRobeson1920 - do return!
	4:59pm StringOFperils: Thanks Stork!
	5:00pm Stork: Thank YOU SOp ! !
