Dead Corporate Eyes:

Ho Ho, I will be there too
  3:06pm
Mike East:

I'll be dancing in double time.
  3:07pm
Cheri Pi:

One of my fave Can songs.
  3:13pm
glenn:

i just found out james last does a cover of silver machine. and guess what - it kills. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF2ODWluPlY
  3:17pm
Pantagruel:

Over the weekend I visited my parents and my Dad was playing James Last easy listening music in the car. It made me smile.
  3:17pm
glenn:

plus this -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKv7zB-gwbE&NR=1
  3:20pm
Ike:

Tip for link-happy YouTubers: Shorten it baby! Just type youtu.be/ and then all the characters AFTER the = and exclude any & and anything after that. So the 3:17 link becomes:
http://youtu.be/yKv7zB-gwbE
Fits in comments betterer!
  3:22pm
rst-wiley:

whois youtu.be ?
  3:22pm
Bitly:

u, tube.
  3:23pm
listen honey,:

Fabio is playing our song
  3:24pm
rst-wiley:

vvfmu
  3:29pm
jaycjay:

youtu.be is a youtube shortlink, similar to goo.gl for google links – provided by youtube/google, that is the're both "official".
  3:31pm
glenn:

i'm just copy/pasting, which works betterer for me.
  3:31pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

the things I never knew about the internet
  3:32pm
Tinyurl:

Me neither, DCE.
  3:33pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

pass the dip
  3:33pm
rst-wiley:

I see - registered at http://www.dns.be/

  3:36pm
Cecile:

Fa-bee-yo!
  3:40pm
Mike East:

I haven't seen any of these modern 3D movies in the theaters. Am I missing something?
  3:42pm
Cecile:

You guys. Have you checked this out. I was screaming with laughter. It's all the old myths re-told in a badass way:
http://bettermyths.blogspot.com/2010/10/what-fuck-loki.html
  3:43pm
Obvious Guy:

@Mike East: Yes. One D.
  3:43pm
Cecile:

I think the only one that really was great in 3-D was How to Train Your Dragon. Breathtaking. Rio might be good, too. But Coraline and Up were just there.
  3:44pm
joe:

czech. milos foreman. btw, after grizzlyman, my roommate started narrating everything in the house in a german accent: now he is turning on the blender. watch him salavate as he opens the fridge...
  3:45pm
Obvious Guy:

Is that because he is looking for sal(a)vation from the fridge?
  3:46pm
rst-wiley:

Creature From the Black Lagoon was the one that most impressed me.
  3:46pm
Parq:

Joe, sort of the coffehouse set's answer to the fad in the 70s for Marlin Perkinds impressions, eh?
  3:47pm
rst-wiley:

These days 3d means action sequences set on 'repeat'. Formula 3d, wow!
  3:49pm
Dale from North Dakota:

Thanks for the link to the "Silver Machine" vid, but I have to agree with one of the commenters -- James needs to work on his Stacia impression, he seems kind of superfluous in that clip :-)
  3:52pm
Mike East:

I did intend to see Avatar, being a self proclaimed scifi nerd, but I never got around to it. Seems pointless to watch it in 2D, which is I guess the problem I have with movies that are made specifically for the 3D format...once they're out of theaters, what's the point?
  3:52pm
moose:

my favorite tv announcer is the guy who does 'forensic files'
sometimes i imagine him narrating my day, but it makes me feel like i'm about to be killed
  3:55pm
moose:

'moose's day started like any other, in the peaceful town of jersey city...'
  3:56pm
rst-wiley:

3d buoyed by good stories or good stories marred by formulaic 3d?
  3:56pm
Ike:

@MEast, I thought Avatar was fun enough in 2D. Never did catch it in 3D. The storyline is nothing new but I got sucked in anyway. But then I like all that post-colonial-type stuff.
  3:56pm
Peter Thomas:

But Moose did not notice the two shady looking characters who had been waiting all night in a a car on his street.
  3:57pm
Looms:

d@_@b
  3:57pm
Count Floyd:

oooo-oo
  4:00pm
BSI:

screw 3D. I'd prefer 0.5D if I could just figure out what the gabbling hell that would mean...
  4:03pm
Mike East:

Cool, Ike. I'll put in on the queue. btw, everybody, Wonderwoman was in the studio today.
  4:07pm
Ike:

@BSI, isn't that half an infinite line? Only a critter that's part of a line, or a point, could live in that line. So those wouldn't be very interesting movies... unless you're really, really, really high.
  4:08pm
?:

DARA BIRNBAUM? Or Lynda Carter?
  4:11pm
r.r.r. high:

we're all critters living in half an infinite line
  4:12pm
BSI:

DAMMIT, IKE, THAT'S STILL TOO MUCH! I need to puncture the membrane and go down, down.... This movie is gonna be -15D at the most/least! C'mon, psychedelic superheroes! Who's with me?!?!?!!
  4:12pm
Mike East:

Lynda Carter. Also, Bang on A Can is rehearsing some Reich pieces within earshot.
  4:13pm
rst-wiley:

Living on a bumpy sphere that's some decimals beyond that 3.0
  4:16pm
Pi:

How far beyond 3. ?
  4:19pm
Looms:

Pretty good pronunciation!
  4:22pm
glenn:

Another Woman Apollo Failed to Bone. my fave from myths retold.
  4:22pm
Rebecca Black:

Fun fun fun fun
  4:22pm
jaycjay:

What's wrong with food?
  4:23pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

food is good
  4:23pm
jaycjay:

Two Lane Blacktop is great! I hae the DVD, and the VHS version!
  4:23pm
glenn:

she is this chick
who is one of the daughters
of king priam of troy
you know
the city i just got finished describing the doom of
or actually i did not finish describing the doom of it
because the fucking iliad is a giant cocktease like that
but my friends
the iliad
is not the ONLY cocktease we're going to be discussing today
  4:24pm
Cecile:

I know, glenn, I have to set it to the side til later. I read about three of them and was on the floor...
  4:24pm
SLeeReverbee:

Are you trying to blow my mind?
  4:26pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I won the Two Lane Blacktop DVD Fabio gave away during the telethon...just got it a few weeks back but haven't had time to view it yet.
  4:26pm
glenn:

so the moral of the story is
never tease a cock
because it WILL tease you back
(also never pay hookers in advance
unless you have the power to curse them with your spit)
  4:26pm
glenn:

just some excerpts. jesus that's fuckin' funny shit.
  4:29pm
Orthographic Correction:

periodik minDtrouble
  4:29pm
The Late Great:

Harry Dean Stanton is still alive, right? He was in that film too. Played the possibly male prostitute hitchhiker. Love Warren Oates line in that scene.
  4:29pm
moose:

watching this laurie bird interview, goes well with the sounds
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K82EGLfq1M
(sorry i didn't do the mini-link)
  4:30pm
jaycjay:

When I was about 12 I read a review of 2LB in some car magazine, Motor Trend or something. It pretty much focused on the cars, not the 70s-film existentialism, but it stuck with me. Years later I was talking to a friend and somehow she mentioned it as something she had seen in film school. I didn't even realize til then that it was anything other than some car movie. But she tracked down a VHS copy for me. It wasn't even available on DVD yet.
  4:30pm
glenn:

just one more. HERE COME LESBIANS
Fuck you guys it's greek myth time

So there's this chick telethusa
which sounds like the name of some cthonian internet service provider
and she is married to some asshole who got her knocked up
and one day he calls her over like hey honey
umm
i hate to say this
but if you squirt a girlchild out of your womb I am going to have to kill it
goddd this is soooo awkward
and Telethusa is like NO SHIT DICKWEED
but actually she stops halfway through the sentence because of UNBEARABLE LABOR PAIN
  4:30pm
Cecile:

I know, glenn. The Loki one had me laughing until I was gasping
  4:32pm
glenn:

it's hard to type when you're doubled over with laughter.
  4:32pm
Loki Made Me Do It:

I like the Norse Crisis Flowchart.
  4:33pm
glenn:

what's even more disturbing is that now they make sense.
  4:38pm
Parq:

@jayc, 4:30. I read that review, too. At the time, I had the shooting script in paperback form, a birthday present from a bud who was kind of my car guru. I still haven't seen it, and may need to make my way down to AFA this weekend.
  4:42pm
Mike Fun:

Nice to hear F/i! Sitting at home about 1/2 mile from RRR as I listen.
  4:43pm
jason:

hey Fabio diggin the show! And hello to all the listeners!

just a friendly PSA to let y'all know that this incredible Sun Araw track is available for download at http://freemusicarchive.org/music/sun_araw
  4:43pm
Cecile:

Here's a great one about Kali:

ok so this story begins like all stories about kali:
kali just killed a bunch of dudes
probably demons
but really
who the fuck knows
anyway to celebrate
kali takes up residence in a nearby forest
with a bunch of her asshole friends
and starts terrorizing the countryside
stabbing the villagers
than stabbing their stab wounds
then stabbing the blood in their stab wounds
shit like that

so finally one of the villagers
who is sick of getting stabbed every day
and is also a follower of shiva
comes running up to shiva like
HEY SHIVA
CAN YOU HANDLE THIS SHIT FOR US
WE REALLY NEED THIS SHIT HANDLED OK
and shiva is like what shit
i am busy
and the dude is like KALI IS STABBING EVERYONE
SHE MIGHT DESTROY THE WORLD EVEN
WHO KNOWS
and shiva is like ok my schedule just cleared up
  4:47pm
Cecile:

Ay yi yi. Funny.
  4:51pm
glenn:

my new favourite website.
  5:01pm
moose:

a lot of potty-talk!
  5:04pm
Cecile:

Yeah, but it's funny. There was probably just as much cussing when they were told around the fire before they got all cleaned up.

Also? The HP Lovecraft synopsis is hysterical.
  5:05pm
Cecile:

the suggestion is to substitute all his adjectives with "spooky" and then mentally delete all the "spookies" and then you actually know what's going on...
  5:14pm
Michael from EP:

I think the title of the Illitch LP is Periodikmindtrouble (perhaps the top of the "d" in "mind" was scratched off on your copy and looked like an "o"?)
  5:17pm
glenn:

i don't know, cecile. i'm not sensing a lot of comment board love for retold myths. i'm kinda disappointed.
  5:19pm
Cecile:

Ah, well. We tried. Also? It's happy hour time in most locations. People are choosing drinking over Fabio. I know!
  5:21pm
fabio:

Yes Michael, that was it, bad printing job on my copy...
  5:22pm
fabio:

say it ain't so! Booze over Failure?! How can that be?
  5:23pm
Barkeep:

Booze and Failure are in no way incompatible. Just sayin.
  5:24pm
david:

OK, this Ilitch is outta control. You've done it again, Fabio.
  5:24pm
Cecile:

Perhaps you should your listeners snacks over happy hour. A nice taco bar, for example.
  5:24pm
BSI:

oh....... i'm here....... in der drone zone.
drooling on my feet in a levitating bath of stars. yep.
  5:25pm
glenn:

it's kinda like how deadwood retold the tale of the west, but leaving all the swearies in. also the whores.
  5:31pm
Cecile:

Also, now Fabio can say we discuss classical literature on the comments board. Might draw some more people! :D
  5:32pm
davin:

just tuned in. what's the music playing behind the announcements?
  5:35pm
Cecile:

Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry?
  5:35pm
Looms:

This is no bad printing, Fabio, only a strange design. The 2CD issue of Periodikmindtrouble (on Fractal back in 2000) is quite hard to read as well.
  5:36pm
jaycjay:

That is an easy one, but unfortunately I have to go to a memorial gathering that night so couldn't use the tickets.
  5:36pm
Cecile:

One of my least favorite singers did that soundtrack.
  5:36pm
glenn:

Calamity Jane: β€œI'm calling on the widow and the little one in her care, and if I was you I wouldn't try to stop me."

EB Farnum: "Be brief."

Calamity Jane: "Be Fucked!"

EB Farnum: "Her gutter mouth, and the widow in an opium stupor. A conversation for the ages.”
  5:40pm
glenn:

After Reverend Smith advises against publicizing the smallpox outbreak in biblical terms:

Al: Yeah, we need to nip that Sodom and Gomorrah shit in the bud.
  5:42pm
glenn:

Al - β€œIn life you have to do a lot of things you don't fucking want to do. Many times, that's what the fuck life is... one vile fucking task after another.”
deadwood - best show evah!
  5:45pm
Barkeep:

Deadwood uses that "one f word minimum per sentence" rule also seen in the Sopranos. For some audience members, it makes obvious stuff sound impassioned.
  5:47pm
glenn:

My favorite Ellsworth line: "I may have fucked my life up flatter than hammered shit, but I stand here before you today beholden to no human cocksucker." I may have to embroider that one on a pillow.
  5:52pm
brendan:

thanks for a great set, fabio
  5:55pm
Pantagruel:

Good show, Fabio!
  5:55pm
moose:

yay!
clay joy
  5:56pm
david:

cmon fabio, shave on the radio! :)
  5:57pm
BSI:

It was all dreamy there, then I turn my back & now we're in deep with the shaving talk......... LIFE CAN GET NO BETTER THAN THIS HERE....
  5:57pm
mark:

Has anyone seen my kirward derby?
  5:57pm
Cecile:

Alan Parsons!
  5:58pm
Cecile:

Roger Waters is a dick.
  5:59pm
Bill F.:

Thanks for speaking truthfully about Roger Waters, Fabio. You did the world a great service.
  5:59pm
northguineahills:

W00hoo! got here in time for the last minute of Fabio!
  5:59pm
Cecile:

Yeah, we're talking about classical literature with lots of swears in it.
  6:01pm
BSI:

STEW ON THAT!
  6:01pm
Pantagruel:

Bring on the duel!
  6:02pm
Cecile:

Let's elope, Fabio.
  6:02pm
Cecile:

You and all us listeners. We've been waiting for that for years.
  6:05pm
Cecile:

But seriously, the Clay/Fabio duel must happen.
  10:58pm
Clay:

Duel!
