Listener comments!

  3:05pm
PMD:

Nice links...
  3:06pm
Janet H:

Am I the only one here?
  3:08pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Janet, you are not alone.
  3:09pm
PMD:

I was here, then was gone, and now I'm back. I'll be leaving and returning, but always listening.
  3:10pm
Lizardner Dave:

Good job with the links Irwin. I hope a lot of folks use them.
  3:18pm
PMD:

Does Amanda sing a veteran related song?
  3:21pm
Ike:

I honor our military too. And I wish that they'd get back the jobs outsourced to vicious overpaid mercenary organizations with no oversight like Blackwater/Xe.
  3:22pm
Janet H:

oh i'm so enjoying this!
  3:23pm
iup:

Ike, you are now property of the government ;)
  3:23pm
Lizardner Dave:

Irwin, were you at the R Stevie Moore show on Saturday afternoon? Thought I recognized you there but wasn't sure if it was you or not and didn't want to introduce myself without being sure.
  3:29pm
Irwin:

LD: Yep, I was there, enjoying. Sitting at a table near the back. With no cocktail in front.
  3:29pm
Parq:

"Freedom Is Not Free" -- it also is not easily gotten back once it's voluntarily surrendered in the name of security.
  3:44pm
LIzardner Dave:

Damn, it was you. I'll say hi next time. I was a few tables over, also beer-less as I thought there was wait service in the back or at least a minimum to sit down. Oh well, saved six bucks and a few calories.
  3:45pm
Irwin:

I'm drink-less these days. Got tired of the daily habit. But the less I drink, the more there is for everyone else.
  3:47pm
trs:

"Free to do what?" by The Tennessee Twin answers its own question in song really well
  3:49pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

that's very green of you, Irwin.
  3:52pm
Irwin:

DCE: Saving the planet while saving my liver.
  3:52pm
PMD:

Wow, haven't heard Traffic in a while.
  3:56pm
BSI:

LIVER!
  3:57pm
Dr. Churchill:

Jaw jaw is better than war war.
  4:06pm
Lizardner Dave:

Great taste? Less filling!
  4:07pm
Bozo Barrett:

No Hannah Montana for the sailors? Such an phoney American name from such a phoney American family. What a tradition. God Bless America!
  4:09pm
Stuart Troutman:

is he trying to sound like Neil Young?
  4:13pm
PMD:

Irwin, is this the version that plays on country music stations? (Private Malone)
  4:15pm
Irwin:

Is there another? That's where I first heard it.
  4:16pm
Colombe:

I wish there were a separate planet, like Mars, for all the people who like to make war. They could kill each other to their hearts content and leave the rest of us alone.
  4:16pm
PMD:

It's just that it sounds less country here. Did a quick search and no, that's the only one.
  4:19pm
Lizardner Dave:

Yes Colombe, except then Earth would be emptied. Nice of you to suggest a mass elimination of people who don't suit your worldview though. No war ever got started over that issue.
  4:27pm
Laura L:

Just tuning in--interrupted by work--how sweet the sound!
  4:28pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Get Bach to where you once belonged.
  4:29pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

sorry, that was SO lame.
  4:29pm
Dr. Lee:

It is well that war is so terrible, or we should grow too fond of it.
  4:33pm
annie:

irwin, not looking to jinx anything here, but this is an especially moving show.. thanks...
  4:37pm
PMD:

Hi Annie!
  4:46pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

yes, this Decemberists tune is very apropos. Also very catchy!
  4:47pm
Ghost of Ricky Medlock:

My GF and I often argue about the Decemberists, but we can both always agree that Picaresque is a good ass album!
  4:48pm
Parq:

Dr Lee, it would seem that we already have. What Annie said.
  4:49pm
Janet H:

i'm still here.... i've been just in the background listening
  4:50pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I'm fearful of what a good "ass" album implies!
  4:51pm
annie:

pmd!!!! had a wonderful lunch!! dessert was chocolate bread pudding with death by chocolate ice cream and chocolate syrup... james had the whipped cream served to him on a little dish.. nice little rest-our-aunt.
  4:53pm
Ghost of Ricky Medlock:

One set of sexy Colin Meloy jams...let your mind wander...
  4:59pm
PMD:

mmmmmmmmmmm.............. though I can't imagine the sugar crash after that.
  5:02pm
Sugar Daddy:

Don't do the treatin' if you can't take the beatin'.
  5:02pm
Janet H:

I like!
  5:06pm
PMD:

Sugar Daddy, words of wisdom.
  5:12pm

  5:22pm
GS:

Love the old Calypso
  5:23pm
GS:

By the way, Goldfrapp rules. There's tons of good songs. Seventh Tree is the least good album.
  5:29pm
Lizardner Dave:

Just posted a link to the playlist noting that it contained the charity links.
  5:31pm
Lizardner Dave:

Forgot to add - thanks for the idea Annie.
  5:35pm
annie:

  5:42pm
Janet H:

i just had to remind the hubby that the post office is closed today.....hey i almost went there today too...lol
  5:49pm
Lizardner Dave:

  6:02pm
Peanut Gallery:

Fabulous show Irwin, and gee, "peace through strength"... is that just your opinion or do you hold it because that's the way the world works?!

Thanks for this show and all that you do,
-- Major S.K.Barton, USA Retired
  6:06pm
Irwin:

I presume your question is rhetorical, Major Barton. Thanks for your service and for your listenership.
  7:47pm
DG:

My brother-in-law Vernon was a hard hat diver, one of the most dangerous jobs in the US Navy. He was injured during the January 1944 invasion of Anzio, Italy. He told the story of the German Stukas, dive bombers, who flew down the Tiber River valley and appeared suddenly in the Anzio Harbor. He was underwater setting charges on sunken ships to clear the way for landing craft to assault the beach. His ship's captain, at terrible risk, decided to up anchor and steam away in evasive maneuvers, ripping Vernon from the wreckage and dragging him by his breathing hose behind the ship. Vernon was slammed repeatedly against the side of the ship, but was hauled aboard alive. His back was wrenched.

When I was a child I remember that he often slept in a pallet on the floor because of his injuries.

Vernon Hammond R.I.P. You did your job.
