WFMU: Monica: Playlist from February 10, 2013

Listener comments!
	7:04pm Starwick: Hi Monica! Great start!!!
	7:05pm Dave E: Hi Monique! How are you tonight?
	7:05pm cb1: Love it. Hello Mo!
	7:05pm G: You know it's Aretha before you get to the playlist... Chicken/noodles/peanut sauce for dinner. Around but too messy to type for awhile...
	7:05pm Parq: Yeah, as soon as I heard the ringing tone of Hume's voice and the languid, bluesey melody, I said, "Must be seven o'clock."
	7:06pm Sem Chumbo: Mirror, mirror. Good evening. Wonderful songs.
	7:06pm LilyAbigale: I do believe this is the first time I've seen Magnani without darkly circled eyes LO
	7:06pm Dave E: That lady does not look too happy....
	7:06pm other david: Epic Aretha.
	7:06pm bruceleh: Yow! I was listening to some Helen Humes this afternoon, and thinking, 'It would be great if Monica played some, maybe I'll make a request.'
	7:07pm Dave E: There's only one DAVID!
	7:07pm fleep: Monica! Usual Suspects! Pensive lady! Lady grabbing her own shoulder!
	7:07pm cb1: I know I'm a Ludite, but why don't I have a little icon-y thing?
	7:08pm Dave E: Ludite?
	7:09pm G: Luddite, maybe ?
	7:09pm G: (anti-technology person)
	7:09pm cb1: I dunno
	7:09pm Dave E: Gotcha!
	7:09pm other david: The Friendship Society welcomes all Davids equally. cb1: clickify the sign in/register link at the top of the playlist
	7:10pm Dave E: I'm a little slow!
	7:10pm fleep: The Luddites were famous for their hit, "A Whole Lotta Ludd"
	7:11pm other david: True and alas The Luddites suffered due to poor adoption rates of the phonautogram format.
	7:11pm Sem Chumbo: Back to back Bobby's, and both plenty blue.
	7:11pm cb1: Yes and didn't they do Heart of Gas?
	7:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: A couple more days until Mardi Gras. Anyone have exciting plans?
	7:13pm cb1: Actually I do have an icon - it's a pane of glass over a dead white sky.
	7:14pm Monica: Hello CB1, Sem Chumbo, other David, fleep, Dave E, G, bruceleh, LilyAbigale, Parq, and Starwick!!
	7:17pm david_: Hi all. Snowy Sunday listening.
	7:17pm Monica: Hi Ken from Hyde Park and david!
	7:17pm deanland: Then there was their other hit, "Ludd to Ludd You,Baby" (during the disco era, of course).
	7:19pm Sem Chumbo: @KFHP: just the usual, beads, beignet and Bourbon St.
	7:19pm Parq: Miss Monica, you've gotten me interested in movie goddess gifs. May I nominate this one for a future playlist? 30.media.tumblr.com...
	7:20pm other david: "Ludd Save The Queen", was a particularly jarring departure for them. If I remember correctly, they were arrested & confined to port by a metropolitan police steamship, whilst attempting to perform the ditty in question.
	7:21pm fleep: It was there they conceived their hit TV show, "The Ludd Boat" with an all Amish crew.
	7:22pm cb1: So nice to hear the word "whilst"
	7:22pm bloopy: wassup monica!!
	7:22pm Monica: hola, deanland! so anyone watching the grammys??
	7:23pm other david: @fleep: let's not go near their prog Sea Shanty era, please.
	7:24pm Parq: Oh, are the Grammies tonight? All I know is, Westminster Kennel is tomorrow night and Tuesday night. Miss Mon, maybe a Frenchie will win this year!
	7:25pm G: Sunday Supplement had a Taylor Swift tribute page. Must be grammies.
	7:25pm deanland: This is the alternate Grammy's music show, right? :-)
	7:25pm G: yep.
	7:25pm other david: *lists Parqs gif in the "I defy you not to fall in love with Audrey Hepburn" column
	7:26pm cb1: @deanland - you got that right!
	7:26pm Monica: hey now, g... yes, d'land!
	7:26pm Dave E: Whilst I took a pee!
	7:27pm texas scott: i'm late what did i miss?...oh yeah the accuplaylist... Aretha! Bobby! Waylon! i sure picked a bad day to quit smoking. no grammys for me.dog and pony show,that one.
	7:27pm G: This is also February sweeps in the US. Ratings set ad rates for the next quarter year. Stupor Bowl last week, Grammies this week, "all new" schlock on all channels all month
	7:27pm david_: Hope Frank Ocean wins Best Album. My only stock in tonight's Grammys...
	7:27pm Dave E: Whoa, this is from left field . . . I love it!
	7:28pm Dave E: Who cares who wins . . . if Monica is playing it, everyone wins!
	7:29pm Dave E: Who cares who wins . . . if Monica is playing it, everyone wins!
	7:29pm Parq: Other David, I list "Roman Holiday" altogether in that column. Why that's considered a "Woman's picture" is beyond me. Is there any man who isn't riveted by that final scene? When Joe walks out of the press conference chamber, quietly trying to come to grips with the knowledge that he is shattered for the rest of his life, how could any man not feel that in his gut?
	7:30pm G: @Parq: That's the stuff that dreams are made of.
	7:30pm other david: Quite. Quite. emits what one may regard as a particularly poignant wistful sigh
	7:30pm Dave E: Wet dreams?
	7:30pm G: @Parq: Frankly, my dear, he did give a damn.
	7:31pm Parq: Okay, guys, KP time for the inimitable moi. Miss Monica, once the question of the evening is posed, I'll wander back to the puter and weigh in.
	7:32pm Dave E: Saw Grover Kimble last night at Crossroads Coffeehouse . . . a great show if I may say so. . . . I was enthralled by his guitar playing and singing!
	7:32pm other david: Tschus for now, Parq.
	7:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'd sooner watch paint dry than watch any of those awards shows. Could not care less. WFMU is much more entertaining. Come to think of it, if WFMU put on an awards show, I'd probably watch that.
	7:34pm Dave E: Nice!
	7:34pm other david: I do wish I could click a favourite star next to Ken From Hyde Park's last comment.
	7:35pm Dave E: I have no TV and who cares - sorry!
	7:35pm joerg: Hi Yo SBB, lovely set, we'll be missing you tomorrow.
	7:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: "I'd like to thank my mom and dad. And Ken Freedman. And other david. And Monica. ..."
	7:36pm Dave E: Me?
	7:36pm Dave E: Me?
	7:37pm tomB: Is a Ludite slang for Qualude junkie?
	7:38pm Dave E: I need more wine!
	7:39pm deanland: Well, what with the Grammy Fashion Police banning buttocks, nipples, decolletage, and the like, why not just read the recap and see what performances are preserved online for later viewing pleasure?
	7:39pm Dave E: Why do I want to look a nipples?
	7:40pm fleep: CBS time delays the Grammys here, it's stale by the time we see it and the winners are already listed online, so brick that.
	7:40pm Monica: Pass the bottle, Dave E.... D'land, could anything have been worse than Bety at the S'Bowl?...tomB, yes, it is...yo, joerg!!! oy, why??? 13th, no?...
	7:40pm Olex in Greenpoint: Pantyhose dancing to this right now!
	7:41pm cb1: Yah, Mo, Ray can tinkle those ivories!
	7:41pm cb1: Oops - I mean Pete
	7:41pm Monica: cb1 - indeed he can!!!
	7:42pm other david: Say what you want, but that man knows how to boogie to a death ray.
	7:43pm fleep: I could swear there was a lady with a hand on her own shoulder, looking at a mirror on a stick, and then she vanished off the playlist.
	7:43pm david_: Jazz guitar is underrated.
	7:44pm Monica: you go, olex!.... fleep, oy, what a buzzkiller that is... why, Dave E. why?... All the little people, Ken from HP... soon come, other david.... Parq, you missed a spot....
	7:44pm listener gary: Good evening. sorry I was absent last week. I was in Houston having a damn good time...margaritas every night for dinner...for a non-drinker I did myself proud!!!
	7:44pm Matt F: Hey Monica. Sorry I'm late, been falling down the youtube rabbit hole for much of the afternoon/evening. Good To Me As I Am To You is probably my all-time fave Aretha performance, and as it happens one of the things I found on youtube earlier today was a killer live version of that very song, from Amsterdam in '68. No fooling!
	7:45pm Dave E: Monica - good point ......
	7:46pm other david: The WFMUammys audience begin to think something was askew with the voting, when other david awarded david_ a "hear hear!" award.
	7:49pm Michael: Ain't this fun!
	7:51pm Monica: No prob, Matt F - we've ALL been there! and hey, I saw you played that Aretha track - SO killer diller!!!.... michael, ain't we got it fun?...Listener Gary, you are absolved for your absence. Hope you had a swell time...
	7:52pm Sem Chumbo: An all verb set: we've all bugged, yes?
	7:53pm Monica: Can I just say that you guys and gals are a fabulous looking audience tonight? GROUP SHOT!!!
	7:53pm tomB: This is the 4th Petra I've heard this week. This will teach those Moving Sidewalks who's #1!
	7:54pm Olex in Greenpoint: Do you have any shag dancing tunes?
	7:54pm Michael: Just finished a Boston Globe article on Petra: www.bostonglobe.com...
	7:54pm Michael: I read the analog version.
	7:55pm annie: ok, fine.. here i am!! is dale here? where's my scrabble buddy!
	7:59pm Parq: Group shot? Wait, lemmie change my shirt. Came out to find out who that "Two of Hearts" was. Marshmallow pop with a sexy big-little-girl front vocal? Yes, please!
	8:00pm Monica: Michael - thanks for sharing. New album pretty great...Annie! 'Bout time, girl!
	8:04pm Windy City: Taylor Swift seems to be dressed like Willi Wonka
	8:07pm Windy City: That's my Grammy Fashion update for the night
	8:10pm Jeff: Wow, that's hysterical - because isn't "Gottrocks" from The Flintstones, their replacement name for the Rothschilds or something?
	8:11pm ScottC: it was always "OK MR. SMARTYPANTS" which sort of has a coolots tie-in...
	8:11pm PJ: When my father, who was Irish, thought we young'uns were getting too big for our britches, he would roar, "Who do you think you are - Lord Muck from Clabber Hill?" I assume he had learned that in his youth, either from his father or from the priests who would box him on the ear.
	8:13pm Neil: Back in college, under the sway of a Venice Beach pal, I shelled out $5 for a copy of Wet - The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing. Tres West Coast. My Dad, who was paying for my college education, was not impressed, to say the least.
	8:13pm tomB: My mother accused me of having "aristocratic tastes" when I insisted on a shirt with 1" vertical muted stripes ($5) at JC Penney's instead of the $3/$4 shirts.
	8:15pm Chris A: My mom admonishing me for getting a little too big for my breeches: the more memorable times were when I decided I wanted to travel somewhere, like France (when I was in high school), or Asia (in the middle of graduate school!). Mom would say that travel always has to be earned through hard work. And of course, I can't say she's wrong about that.
	8:16pm deanland: In 1964 a NYC Transit cop (back in the day when there was an independent Transit Police Force) asked me, "Who do you think you are, John Dillinger?" FWIW, my parents wrote to a bunch of city agencies to get the guy in trouble (long,long story, short of which is my best friend and I, both in our early teens, were, uh, 'detained' in a subway station). I'll never forget his badge number: 3-4-4-1. As I left the, uh, 'detainment' I said to him, "Badge number 3441, you're going to regret this." I was a sassy kid.
	8:16pm Chris A: TomB, my mom said things like that to me at various times, too!
	8:16pm Chris A: TomB, my mom said things like that to me at various times, too!
	8:16pm Windy City: I got the, " who do you think you are ?" Little Lord Fauntleroy
	8:18pm fleep: "King of Egypt"
	8:18pm 12539: (Google suggests that Mrs Gottrocks was a Three Stooges character.)
	8:19pm Rob S: deanland, great story!
	8:19pm Parq: I'm coming up blank on the "Who do you think you are" trope as such, but what my parents always dug up to get in my face was something to suggest that what I was doing was an indolent waste of time. "I suppose you think you're going to become big shot with that" was the general idea -- kind of like what I imagine gamers get from their parents over all the work the put into their skills in Katamari.
	8:21pm Chris A: I'm loving the show, but the bf is summoning me to watch the archives. So, once again, thanks for a great show Monica, and thanks to the FMU archives!
	8:21pm ken in denver: Let's hope Revenge Cop stays away from the Grammys: www.theatlanticwire.com...
	8:23pm Listener Schned: My mom liked to inform us that we were "not exactly the president of the Chase National Bank!" which carbon-dates back to the 1930s at least!!
	8:23pm glenn: "who do you think you are" is bad, but "do you know who i am" is 1000 times worse.
	8:24pm glenn: or maybe "don't you know who i am"?
	8:24pm G: Actually, my parents were the "don't hurt their wittle self-esteem" types, which has its own downside that I had to learn a lot of stuff through experience as an adult -- which is a very solid but very expensive learning curve, sometimes. By "solid" I mean when you learn by experience, you really know something, as opposed to taking someone's word for it when you don't have the experience yourself...
	8:26pm ken in denver: Who's that over there on the left? Katrina Vanden Heuvel?
	8:28pm Monica: Chris A - yes, it's always about being too big for one's britches. don't strive, stay in your lane, who do you think you are....Parq, up there with "I suppose"....yo, Rob S!...Windy City - ha, the royalty thing , yeah....Fleep, really?....Deanland, well you are, aren't you?...tomB - priceless!.... Neil, that's a good one! but seriously the hell, dude.....PJ, the Irish will take you down like no one else....ScottC - yes!!....Jeff - it IS??? damn...
	8:28pm glenn: anna magnani.
	8:30pm G: on Anna M.: "She was referred to as "La Lupa," the "perennial toast of Rome" and a "living she-wolf symbol" of the cinema. Time magazine described her personality as "fiery", and drama critic Harold Clurman said her acting was "volcanic". In the realm of Italian cinema, she was "passionate, fearless, and exciting," an actress that film historian Barry Monush calls "the volcanic earth mother of all Italian cinema." Director Roberto Rossellini called her "the greatest acting genius since Eleonora Duse". Playwright Tennessee Williams became an admirer of her acting and wrote The Rose Tattoo specifically for her to star in, a role for which she received her first Oscar in 1955."
	8:31pm Parq: Sing along time! <straightens tie>
	8:31pm Parq: <okay, not wearing tie -- straightens shirt collar>
	8:32pm other david: straightens string vest
	8:32pm bruceleh: "400 watts! What do you think we are, related to Rockeffer?" When we left the 400 watt chandelier in the dining room.
	8:32pm G: straightens teeshirt
	8:32pm G: It's Romper Room!!! :P
	8:32pm ken in denver: Re Anna M: Grrr!
	8:33pm Karl: love it!
	8:34pm other david: <3
	8:36pm G: "OK, mommy, I'm a little worm crawling on its belly, just like you and daddy. Kk?"
	8:37pm Lane: I LOVE YOUR SHOW! Hello from Venice, Californeee!!!
	8:37pm shoe: my mom always makes an additional comment : who do you think you are? all stars spinning around over you?
	8:39pm glenn: wow, it's like all you guys grew up in MY house.
	8:40pm ?: Lovely song!
	8:40pm James Douglas: thanks for putting me in a better mood with this tearjerker
	8:44pm Dennis Diken: nice show Monica!!
	8:44pm LilyAbigale: In my house it was a huge sigh and a sing song tone that sounded like Robert Plant in an Augmented 4th saying: "Do what you WA-AANT"
	8:45pm tomB: yeah, we all had the same parents, but how come we only had one sister?
	8:46pm Monica: James Douglas, my pleasure...thanks, ?....glenn, i'm afraid we did..... shoe, oy..... Lane - thank you!!!....Hi, Karl!... Texas Scott - howdee!! didn't see you earlier, kiddo.... G - thanks for the back story on anna....Listener Schned - now that's funny... thanks, chris a!
	8:46pm shoe: Parents are always adorable disasters.
	8:46pm frenchee: My mom admonished us by saying we were acting like prima donnas. But for years and YEARS I thought she was saying pre-Madonna and this was long before Ms. Cicclione entered the scene. 'WE'RE NOT MADE OF MONEY YOU KNOW" was another favorite.
	8:47pm LilyAbigale: Nice Sammy Boy
	8:47pm frenchee: very nice to hear Mr. K's new stuff.
	8:50pm Monica: frenchee, it's a beautiful album. oh yeah, "money doesn't grow on trees" biz.....
	8:51pm annie: so nice to hear ms lennox.. what a voice!
	8:52pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): This is all softening the periodic house-shaking of the heavy equipment trying to dig out the world outside. It's like living in a mine.
	8:52pm Rob S: great to hear Jessi C
	8:53pm glenn: once my dad said to me "money doesn't grow on trees" my reply was "no, but it grows on flax plants" my ass was sore for about a week.
	8:53pm cb2: Cold in the Poconos, but hot now. Loved the show. XXX
	8:53pm other david: As ever, wish you were on for hours longer. Perfect show, thankoo!
	8:53pm PJ: Speaking of the different parenting styles of the past, Richard Thompson has a great song called "Can't Win" about the efforts of family to keep their offspring down.
	8:54pm G: "No, mom, we're not made of money. We're obviously made of bitterness, and there wouldn't be any room left for money. :-) "
	8:56pm shoe: Im wondering how many of us really have the confidence to say we will be totally different parents? I can imaging myself being a bad parent to be honest.
	8:56pm Monica: CB2 in the house!!! Many thanks xo... Rob S - thank YOU. and ain't she great???... Pete from Boston - love it, thnx... annie , she's so amazing.. THANK YOU ALL FOR TUNING IN TONIGHT - STAY TUNED FOR DAVE MANDLE WITH MATMOS LIVE!!!
	8:56pm glenn: bitterness has made g funny.
	8:57pm fleep: Another show worth a trip to the archives. Thanks, Monica
	8:57pm annie: shoe, i made a concerted effort to be anything but what my parents were..
	9:00pm G: @shoe: I'm figuring it would be really tough to be on a really tight budget and have to say no all the time. Most parents are not going to tell kids all the income and expense issues. So they go to the old "money doesn't grow on trees" standby.
	9:13pm shoe: @G thanks for ur opinion
	9:20pm shoe: I really like Matmos, last time seeing their live they were playing coolest version of "teach me tonight"
	4:01pm listener jeff: Sorry for posting late - listening to archive! The "Outlaws" consisted of Waylon, Willie, Tompall Glaser and Jessie Colter. Saw them several times back in the day. Once was when Willie had his Fourth of July picnic in Kansas City. The Grateful Dead also peformed - strange mix deadheads and cowboys!
	8:35pm HWRD: Love you, Monica!!! Howard in Portland!

	7:24pm Parq: Oh, are the Grammies tonight? All I know is, Westminster Kennel is tomorrow night and Tuesday night. Miss Mon, maybe a Frenchie will win this year!
	7:25pm G: Sunday Supplement had a Taylor Swift tribute page. Must be grammies.
	7:25pm deanland: This is the alternate Grammy's music show, right? :-)
	7:25pm G: yep.
	7:25pm other david: *lists Parqs gif in the "I defy you not to fall in love with Audrey Hepburn" column
	7:26pm cb1: @deanland - you got that right!
	7:26pm Monica: hey now, g... yes, d'land!
	7:26pm Dave E: Whilst I took a pee!
	7:27pm texas scott: i'm late what did i miss?...oh yeah the accuplaylist... Aretha! Bobby! Waylon! i sure picked a bad day to quit smoking. no grammys for me.dog and pony show,that one.
	7:27pm G: This is also February sweeps in the US. Ratings set ad rates for the next quarter year. Stupor Bowl last week, Grammies this week, "all new" schlock on all channels all month
	7:27pm david_: Hope Frank Ocean wins Best Album. My only stock in tonight's Grammys...
	7:27pm Dave E: Whoa, this is from left field . . . I love it!
	7:28pm Dave E: Who cares who wins . . . if Monica is playing it, everyone wins!
	7:29pm Dave E: Who cares who wins . . . if Monica is playing it, everyone wins!
	7:29pm Parq: Other David, I list "Roman Holiday" altogether in that column. Why that's considered a "Woman's picture" is beyond me. Is there any man who isn't riveted by that final scene? When Joe walks out of the press conference chamber, quietly trying to come to grips with the knowledge that he is shattered for the rest of his life, how could any man not feel that in his gut?
	7:30pm G: @Parq: That's the stuff that dreams are made of.
	7:30pm other david: Quite. Quite. emits what one may regard as a particularly poignant wistful sigh
	7:30pm Dave E: Wet dreams?
	7:30pm G: @Parq: Frankly, my dear, he did give a damn.
	7:31pm Parq: Okay, guys, KP time for the inimitable moi. Miss Monica, once the question of the evening is posed, I'll wander back to the puter and weigh in.
	7:32pm Dave E: Saw Grover Kimble last night at Crossroads Coffeehouse . . . a great show if I may say so. . . . I was enthralled by his guitar playing and singing!
	7:32pm other david: Tschus for now, Parq.
	7:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'd sooner watch paint dry than watch any of those awards shows. Could not care less. WFMU is much more entertaining. Come to think of it, if WFMU put on an awards show, I'd probably watch that.
	7:34pm Dave E: Nice!
	7:34pm other david: I do wish I could click a favourite star next to Ken From Hyde Park's last comment.
	7:35pm Dave E: I have no TV and who cares - sorry!
	7:35pm joerg: Hi Yo SBB, lovely set, we'll be missing you tomorrow.
	7:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: "I'd like to thank my mom and dad. And Ken Freedman. And other david. And Monica. ..."
	7:36pm Dave E: Me?
	7:36pm Dave E: Me?
	7:37pm tomB: Is a Ludite slang for Qualude junkie?
	7:38pm Dave E: I need more wine!
	7:39pm deanland: Well, what with the Grammy Fashion Police banning buttocks, nipples, decolletage, and the like, why not just read the recap and see what performances are preserved online for later viewing pleasure?
	7:39pm Dave E: Why do I want to look a nipples?
	7:40pm fleep: CBS time delays the Grammys here, it's stale by the time we see it and the winners are already listed online, so brick that.
	7:40pm Monica: Pass the bottle, Dave E.... D'land, could anything have been worse than Bety at the S'Bowl?...tomB, yes, it is...yo, joerg!!! oy, why??? 13th, no?...
	7:40pm Olex in Greenpoint: Pantyhose dancing to this right now!
	7:41pm cb1: Yah, Mo, Ray can tinkle those ivories!
	7:41pm cb1: Oops - I mean Pete
	7:41pm Monica: cb1 - indeed he can!!!
	7:42pm other david: Say what you want, but that man knows how to boogie to a death ray.
	7:43pm fleep: I could swear there was a lady with a hand on her own shoulder, looking at a mirror on a stick, and then she vanished off the playlist.
	7:43pm david_: Jazz guitar is underrated.
	7:44pm Monica: you go, olex!.... fleep, oy, what a buzzkiller that is... why, Dave E. why?... All the little people, Ken from HP... soon come, other david.... Parq, you missed a spot....
	7:44pm listener gary: Good evening. sorry I was absent last week. I was in Houston having a damn good time...margaritas every night for dinner...for a non-drinker I did myself proud!!!
	7:44pm Matt F: Hey Monica. Sorry I'm late, been falling down the youtube rabbit hole for much of the afternoon/evening. Good To Me As I Am To You is probably my all-time fave Aretha performance, and as it happens one of the things I found on youtube earlier today was a killer live version of that very song, from Amsterdam in '68. No fooling!
	7:45pm Dave E: Monica - good point ......
	7:46pm other david: The WFMUammys audience begin to think something was askew with the voting, when other david awarded david_ a "hear hear!" award.
	7:49pm Michael: Ain't this fun!
	7:51pm Monica: No prob, Matt F - we've ALL been there! and hey, I saw you played that Aretha track - SO killer diller!!!.... michael, ain't we got it fun?...Listener Gary, you are absolved for your absence. Hope you had a swell time...
	7:52pm Sem Chumbo: An all verb set: we've all bugged, yes?
	7:53pm Monica: Can I just say that you guys and gals are a fabulous looking audience tonight? GROUP SHOT!!!
	7:53pm tomB: This is the 4th Petra I've heard this week. This will teach those Moving Sidewalks who's #1!
	7:54pm Olex in Greenpoint: Do you have any shag dancing tunes?
	7:54pm Michael: Just finished a Boston Globe article on Petra: www.bostonglobe.com...
	7:54pm Michael: I read the analog version.
	7:55pm annie: ok, fine.. here i am!! is dale here? where's my scrabble buddy!
	7:59pm Parq: Group shot? Wait, lemmie change my shirt. Came out to find out who that "Two of Hearts" was. Marshmallow pop with a sexy big-little-girl front vocal? Yes, please!
	8:00pm Monica: Michael - thanks for sharing. New album pretty great...Annie! 'Bout time, girl!
	8:04pm Windy City: Taylor Swift seems to be dressed like Willi Wonka
	8:07pm Windy City: That's my Grammy Fashion update for the night
	8:10pm Jeff: Wow, that's hysterical - because isn't "Gottrocks" from The Flintstones, their replacement name for the Rothschilds or something?
	8:11pm ScottC: it was always "OK MR. SMARTYPANTS" which sort of has a coolots tie-in...
	8:11pm PJ: When my father, who was Irish, thought we young'uns were getting too big for our britches, he would roar, "Who do you think you are - Lord Muck from Clabber Hill?" I assume he had learned that in his youth, either from his father or from the priests who would box him on the ear.
	8:13pm Neil: Back in college, under the sway of a Venice Beach pal, I shelled out $5 for a copy of Wet - The Magazine of Gourmet Bathing. Tres West Coast. My Dad, who was paying for my college education, was not impressed, to say the least.
	8:13pm tomB: My mother accused me of having "aristocratic tastes" when I insisted on a shirt with 1" vertical muted stripes ($5) at JC Penney's instead of the $3/$4 shirts.
	8:15pm Chris A: My mom admonishing me for getting a little too big for my breeches: the more memorable times were when I decided I wanted to travel somewhere, like France (when I was in high school), or Asia (in the middle of graduate school!). Mom would say that travel always has to be earned through hard work. And of course, I can't say she's wrong about that.
	8:16pm deanland: In 1964 a NYC Transit cop (back in the day when there was an independent Transit Police Force) asked me, "Who do you think you are, John Dillinger?" FWIW, my parents wrote to a bunch of city agencies to get the guy in trouble (long,long story, short of which is my best friend and I, both in our early teens, were, uh, 'detained' in a subway station). I'll never forget his badge number: 3-4-4-1. As I left the, uh, 'detainment' I said to him, "Badge number 3441, you're going to regret this." I was a sassy kid.
	8:16pm Chris A: TomB, my mom said things like that to me at various times, too!
	8:16pm Chris A: TomB, my mom said things like that to me at various times, too!
	8:16pm Windy City: I got the, " who do you think you are ?" Little Lord Fauntleroy
	8:18pm fleep: "King of Egypt"
	8:18pm 12539: (Google suggests that Mrs Gottrocks was a Three Stooges character.)
	8:19pm Rob S: deanland, great story!
	8:19pm Parq: I'm coming up blank on the "Who do you think you are" trope as such, but what my parents always dug up to get in my face was something to suggest that what I was doing was an indolent waste of time. "I suppose you think you're going to become big shot with that" was the general idea -- kind of like what I imagine gamers get from their parents over all the work the put into their skills in Katamari.
	8:21pm Chris A: I'm loving the show, but the bf is summoning me to watch the archives. So, once again, thanks for a great show Monica, and thanks to the FMU archives!
	8:21pm ken in denver: Let's hope Revenge Cop stays away from the Grammys: www.theatlanticwire.com...
	8:23pm Listener Schned: My mom liked to inform us that we were "not exactly the president of the Chase National Bank!" which carbon-dates back to the 1930s at least!!
	8:23pm glenn: "who do you think you are" is bad, but "do you know who i am" is 1000 times worse.
	8:24pm glenn: or maybe "don't you know who i am"?
	8:24pm G: Actually, my parents were the "don't hurt their wittle self-esteem" types, which has its own downside that I had to learn a lot of stuff through experience as an adult -- which is a very solid but very expensive learning curve, sometimes. By "solid" I mean when you learn by experience, you really know something, as opposed to taking someone's word for it when you don't have the experience yourself...
	8:26pm ken in denver: Who's that over there on the left? Katrina Vanden Heuvel?
	8:28pm Monica: Chris A - yes, it's always about being too big for one's britches. don't strive, stay in your lane, who do you think you are....Parq, up there with "I suppose"....yo, Rob S!...Windy City - ha, the royalty thing , yeah....Fleep, really?....Deanland, well you are, aren't you?...tomB - priceless!.... Neil, that's a good one! but seriously the hell, dude.....PJ, the Irish will take you down like no one else....ScottC - yes!!....Jeff - it IS??? damn...
	8:28pm glenn: anna magnani.
	8:30pm G: on Anna M.: "She was referred to as "La Lupa," the "perennial toast of Rome" and a "living she-wolf symbol" of the cinema. Time magazine described her personality as "fiery", and drama critic Harold Clurman said her acting was "volcanic". In the realm of Italian cinema, she was "passionate, fearless, and exciting," an actress that film historian Barry Monush calls "the volcanic earth mother of all Italian cinema." Director Roberto Rossellini called her "the greatest acting genius since Eleonora Duse". Playwright Tennessee Williams became an admirer of her acting and wrote The Rose Tattoo specifically for her to star in, a role for which she received her first Oscar in 1955."
	8:31pm Parq: Sing along time! <straightens tie>
	8:31pm Parq: <okay, not wearing tie -- straightens shirt collar>
	8:32pm other david: straightens string vest
	8:32pm bruceleh: "400 watts! What do you think we are, related to Rockeffer?" When we left the 400 watt chandelier in the dining room.
	8:32pm G: straightens teeshirt
	8:32pm G: It's Romper Room!!! :P
	8:32pm ken in denver: Re Anna M: Grrr!
	8:33pm Karl: love it!
	8:34pm other david: <3
	8:36pm G: "OK, mommy, I'm a little worm crawling on its belly, just like you and daddy. Kk?"
	8:37pm Lane: I LOVE YOUR SHOW! Hello from Venice, Californeee!!!
	8:37pm shoe: my mom always makes an additional comment : who do you think you are? all stars spinning around over you?
	8:39pm glenn: wow, it's like all you guys grew up in MY house.
	8:40pm ?: Lovely song!
	8:40pm James Douglas: thanks for putting me in a better mood with this tearjerker
	8:44pm Dennis Diken: nice show Monica!!
	8:44pm LilyAbigale: In my house it was a huge sigh and a sing song tone that sounded like Robert Plant in an Augmented 4th saying: "Do what you WA-AANT"
	8:45pm tomB: yeah, we all had the same parents, but how come we only had one sister?
	8:46pm Monica: James Douglas, my pleasure...thanks, ?....glenn, i'm afraid we did..... shoe, oy..... Lane - thank you!!!....Hi, Karl!... Texas Scott - howdee!! didn't see you earlier, kiddo.... G - thanks for the back story on anna....Listener Schned - now that's funny... thanks, chris a!
	8:46pm shoe: Parents are always adorable disasters.
	8:46pm frenchee: My mom admonished us by saying we were acting like prima donnas. But for years and YEARS I thought she was saying pre-Madonna and this was long before Ms. Cicclione entered the scene. 'WE'RE NOT MADE OF MONEY YOU KNOW" was another favorite.
	8:47pm LilyAbigale: Nice Sammy Boy
	8:47pm frenchee: very nice to hear Mr. K's new stuff.
	8:50pm Monica: frenchee, it's a beautiful album. oh yeah, "money doesn't grow on trees" biz.....
	8:51pm annie: so nice to hear ms lennox.. what a voice!
	8:52pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): This is all softening the periodic house-shaking of the heavy equipment trying to dig out the world outside. It's like living in a mine.
	8:52pm Rob S: great to hear Jessi C
	8:53pm glenn: once my dad said to me "money doesn't grow on trees" my reply was "no, but it grows on flax plants" my ass was sore for about a week.
	8:53pm cb2: Cold in the Poconos, but hot now. Loved the show. XXX
	8:53pm other david: As ever, wish you were on for hours longer. Perfect show, thankoo!
	8:53pm PJ: Speaking of the different parenting styles of the past, Richard Thompson has a great song called "Can't Win" about the efforts of family to keep their offspring down.
	8:54pm G: "No, mom, we're not made of money. We're obviously made of bitterness, and there wouldn't be any room left for money. :-) "
	8:56pm shoe: Im wondering how many of us really have the confidence to say we will be totally different parents? I can imaging myself being a bad parent to be honest.
	8:56pm Monica: CB2 in the house!!! Many thanks xo... Rob S - thank YOU. and ain't she great???... Pete from Boston - love it, thnx... annie , she's so amazing.. THANK YOU ALL FOR TUNING IN TONIGHT - STAY TUNED FOR DAVE MANDLE WITH MATMOS LIVE!!!
	8:56pm glenn: bitterness has made g funny.
	8:57pm fleep: Another show worth a trip to the archives. Thanks, Monica
	8:57pm annie: shoe, i made a concerted effort to be anything but what my parents were..
	9:00pm G: @shoe: I'm figuring it would be really tough to be on a really tight budget and have to say no all the time. Most parents are not going to tell kids all the income and expense issues. So they go to the old "money doesn't grow on trees" standby.
	9:13pm shoe: @G thanks for ur opinion
	9:20pm shoe: I really like Matmos, last time seeing their live they were playing coolest version of "teach me tonight"
	4:01pm listener jeff: Sorry for posting late - listening to archive! The "Outlaws" consisted of Waylon, Willie, Tompall Glaser and Jessie Colter. Saw them several times back in the day. Once was when Willie had his Fourth of July picnic in Kansas City. The Grateful Dead also peformed - strange mix deadheads and cowboys!
	8:35pm HWRD: Love you, Monica!!! Howard in Portland!
