	3:04pm Mike East: who headlined, Honey water?
	3:05pm northguineahills: HW: those Corner puns almost made me pull a facial muscle w/ my groans ;)
	3:07pm das: This is warming my cockles
	3:07pm Honey Water: @Mike: Sorry -- I was reading up about our host's most mollusk undertaking. It was Herman's Hermits. Sonny & Cher opened even before P&G.
	3:08pm Honey Water: @ngh: TY, that's what I aim for.
	3:08pm Mike East: awesome
	3:09pm Honey Water: Yay [applause]! There's the .gif!
	3:16pm DCE: Greg the Hammer Valentine? that takes me back aways! and congrats DJKG!!
	3:18pm Honey Water: Yes, Kurt, that's really exciting. I did not know of your noir interests. That's Philo's full-on passion in reading, publishing and cinema.
	3:20pm Honey Water: @DCE: Sometimes you have to wrestle with love until you pin it to the mat?
	3:24pm northguineahills: Kurt, it looks diabolically awesome!
	3:24pm Honey Water: Pretty cool that two FMU DJs are displaying their other talents within a two-day timeframe. Ken will debut his stand-up act on Monday. Hope you NYC area listeners will take full advantage of your geographic good fortune.
	3:25pm Frank Booth: PRANCE!!!
	3:25pm ?: Yay a song about necrophilia!
	3:27pm Kurt Gottschalk: hey! thanks for the kind words and happy valentines boxing day, everyone!
	3:27pm Honey Water: @?: So was "Popsicle Toes" as well?
	3:28pm Honey Water: @Kurt: You mean the day everyone throws out their empty Whitman samplers?
	3:30pm Kurt Gottschalk: xactly
	3:31pm ?: I suppose...
	3:31pm phat: I've barely listened to Sonic Nurse, for some reason. This is beautiful.
	3:33pm Caryn: Hello all! Man, missed the start due to cooking duties.
	3:33pm Honey Water: That beep sound is dead-on our smoke detector, which is overly sensitive and will yelp at dark toast.
	3:34pm Honey Water: Moi, Caryn!
	3:38pm Caryn: Moi vaan, HW!
	3:41pm northguineahills: Nice contrast in themes in the O'rourke to Donovan segue.
	3:42pm Honey Water: Wow, sufficiently creepy at this speed.
	3:43pm das: No kidding
	3:43pm Honey Water: Surprised I never recall hearing that Donovan at the time.
	3:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): I often yelp at dark toast.
	3:45pm Honey Water: @Rev: Admittedly, dark toast in this household is an unhappy accident, but still don't think it deserves a machine chiming in with its opinion.
	3:46pm Caryn: BTW, KG, nice work with writing the Symbol on the playlist.
	3:49pm northguineahills: Hmmm, I have this Ayers record, and have never heard this song.
	3:50pm paula pc: Kevin Ayers is perfect for Friday afternoooons
	3:52pm paula pc: @northguineahills -- it's on a kind of recent reissue, I think
	3:52pm Jeff: Somebody in there sounded kind of like Ivor Cutler. Or was that Ivy Catnip?
	3:52pm Caryn: @ngh: This track isn't on the original, only on the 2003 reissue.
	3:53pm Caryn: Trying to listen out for Mike Oldfield...
	3:53pm northguineahills: ahhh, thanks paula & Caryn.
	3:54pm paula pc: i swear I was going to request this, what with the guy's clothes theme
	3:54pm burpage: ah yes what a way to start a threeday threeday
	3:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): This bathroom tune is the greatest thing mankind has achieved. Seriously.
	3:58pm Honey Water: This sounds like the sorts of songs written for some industry to play at a trade show -- like for Delta Faucets or something. Very similar to the Army Corps of Engineers theme.
	3:59pm Mr. Lowry: Not Delta, American Standard.
	3:59pm Caryn: @HW: very close. Check out KG's link for the whole thing.
	3:59pm DCE: haha, I'd love to hear that one in a late-night state of mind
	4:02pm Honey Water: Ohhh, wow, Standard toilets, of course! Duh.
	4:04pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): What'd I miss?
	4:04pm Honey Water: @Rev: Forget the coroner cakes and get out the urinal cakes.
	4:05pm DCE: that whisper really caught me off guard--I actually turned around, thinking someone was behind me.
	4:06pm Sem Chumbo: @DCE: a late night state of mind moment!
	4:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): One of the very best Cakes, that Jubbo.
	4:08pm Honey Water: Now it's an early morning moment.
	4:10pm California man: a cuppa acuppa acuppa a cuppa a cup. I love the slur in java jive.
	4:11pm DCE: aha, haven't heard this Association in awhile--fun tune
	4:12pm Caryn: Hey, I just had some broccoli!
	4:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): A somewhat brighter-sounding tune than Coil's "Broccoli"
	4:12pm Fifty Shades of Chicke: I fully endorse this set.
	4:13pm phat: fifty, I second that
	4:15pm Honey Water: Caryn, you're really doing the cruciferous vegetables these days.
	4:16pm Caryn: @HW: well, trying to eat healthy when possible. And they've been on sale a lot lately. And I'm a fan of all brassicae etc.
	4:17pm DCE: Kung mi must be a hell of a volunteer
	4:18pm California man: this slow version of "A world without love" is most definitely a highlight of the set.
	4:18pm Urania: Repeating earlier message for those of you who just joined in: Good people! Did you know that Kurt Gottschalk wrote a play?? It is being performed TOMORROW (Saturday Feb 16) at 10pm at Dixon Place. Please come! Here are the details and how to buy tickets: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/under-a-scar-filled-sky-the-buddy-zinn-mysteries/x/310041?c=home How to buy tickets: https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pe/9748069
	4:19pm ?: just tuning in. worried I will be the recipient of a figure-four leglock
	4:20pm Honey Water: If someone out there had a single star fruit, what would you do with it in a recipe to best effect? Never used one in cooking before.
	4:21pm burpage: big slip daddy
	4:21pm Caryn: @HW: oh man, I've only used it in salads. Hmm...
	4:21pm DCE: anything by Glen Campbell is pure star fruit
	4:22pm Honey Water: Kurt, do you have a song "I Hate My Judgmental Smoke Detector"?
	4:23pm Honey Water: @Caryn: Raw then? Can it be braised or otherwise used to garnish some meat dish maybe?
	4:23pm burpage: honey take batries out fer awhile give em a threeday pass
	4:24pm Honey Water: Yeah, I know, I can find tons of such info searching online, but thought I'd pick the FS brains first.
	4:24pm Caryn: @HW: from Wiki: "In Southeast Asia, they are usually stewed in cloves and sugar, sometimes with apples. In China, they are cooked with fish. In Australia, they may be cooked as a vegetable, pickled, or made into jams. In Jamaica they are sometimes dried. Unripe and sour type carambolas can be mixed with other chopped spices to make relishes in Australia. In the Philippines, unripe carambolas are eaten dipped in rock salt. In Thailand, they are cooked together with shrimp. The juice from carambolas is also used in iced drinks, particularly the juice of the sour varieties. In Hawaii they are used to make sherbet, while in the Philippines they can be used as seasoning. In India, the juice is bottled for drinking.
	4:26pm DCE: oh I remember this one from those trucker LPs they used to try to sell on the UHF channels in the early 80s!
	4:26pm DCE: do CONVOY next!!
	4:26pm Honey Water: TY, Ms. Caryn! :) So fish, mostly, OK.
	4:27pm Mike East: @HW - I got one of those when I was a kid (I was really into cooking shows and they always used star fruit for something). I didn't know what to do with it, though, so I think I just sliced it and used for garnish.
	4:27pm DCE: "not sold in stores", much to my chagrin
	4:27pm Mike East: I think maybe it'd be good in like a Thai curry with coconut water or something.
	4:28pm Sem Chumbo: Phantom 309 is another Red Sovine trucker song. ( Ghost at a lonely truck stop)Tom Waits did a fine cover.
	4:28pm DCE: well highway star will always get my testosterone up a few levels
	4:28pm Cheri Pi: YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
	4:29pm DCE: I remember that one too, Sem Chumbo! good stuff. Trucker country is soooo underrated!
	4:29pm California man: OOOOOOWWWWW!!! HIIIIGHWAY STAAAAR!
	4:29pm Honey Water: So probably would work mixed with apple slices and sprinkled with chaat masala for a side relish/salad.
	4:29pm Caryn: Saw a 4-disc set of tunes collected from old gas station C cassettes in the shop today. Too bad it cost too much. Headbanging in process to DP!
	4:30pm California man: @cheri pi I see we had similar reactions to the deep purple there.
	4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): This will do nicely.
	4:34pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): ...and this.
	4:34pm Caryn: Oh, Roger Taylor and his car fixation...
	4:35pm Honey Water: Machine love songs are fine when the innuendo for actually something else is obvious.
	4:37pm Cheri Pi: California Man- it's so nice to meet another Highway Star appreciator :)
	4:37pm Honey Water: We just watched a bromance / buddy film last night with machine love, "Robot and Frank."
	4:37pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): You know, just about when it gets dark outside this evening, I'll be on 128.
	4:38pm Caryn: I love the story that Taylor locked himself in a cupboard to get the song to be the B-side to "Bohemian Rhapsody".
	4:47pm Jeff: This is deeply disturbing.
	4:49pm Honey Water: Oh Bowie, maybe my fave machine love tune!
	4:49pm Cheri Pi: What Jeff said.
	4:55pm Caryn: How does TVC 15 fit in with the car/bike set? It's about a tv.
	4:56pm Caryn: TVC 15 always makes me think of "Videodrome".
	4:56pm northguineahills: Sort of anticipated Computer Love.
	4:56pm common: have good weekends all!
	4:57pm northguineahills: Later, common!
	4:57pm tim from champaign: Really diggin the themed sets. Lots of fun.
	4:58pm California man: Kraftwerk's lyrics are so goofy that they seem profound.
	4:59pm Caryn: To paraphrase Spinal Tap, there's a fine line between goofy and profound.
	4:59pm Sem Chumbo: @Caryn: Videodrome: James Woods kissing Debbie Harry thru a TV screen.
	5:01pm Honey Water: Mmm, decided to mix this sliced star fruit with Chinese 5 spice instead of chaat masala -- spice-alicious! Almost might say I love it. Now to add the apples and clementines.
	5:02pm MuttonChops: Did Coldplay rip off Kraftwerk?
	5:03pm Johnny Bigfoot: RE: TVC15, for afters of course... http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7nzkv_david-bowie-klaus-nomi-tvc15-boys-k_music#.UR6wN4W6ZL8 ...come for Nomi, stay for the Bowie Puppet!
	5:03pm Caryn: @MuttonChops: yep, but with Kraftwerk's permission. At least they know who to borrow from.
	5:04pm Mike East: ha - I just realized that what I thought was Serge Gainsebourg was Mike Patton. Good job, Mike Patton.
	5:06pm Caryn: @Johnny: Don't forget Joey Arias.
	5:08pm Caryn: Speaking of borrowed riffs...
	5:08pm Johnny Bigfoot: Yes, and Joey Arias of course!
	5:12pm Caryn: Was favouriting too many songs, so just went and favourited the episode instead.
	5:12pm Honey Water: Only with SPF 50+.
	5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): The sun can piss up a rope.
	5:13pm Johnny Bigfoot: "The Sun Never Sweats"
	5:13pm tim from champaign: I never ever ever ever ever thought I'd hear Eddie Rabbit and Velvet Underground back to back, never ever.
	5:14pm Honey Water: @Caryn: I was thinking this weekend of clearing out ALL my favoriting stars. Was a little spooked when I went looking for a tune played this past week and top item in my search showed my own profile as the link because I had starred it! Eeesh, kinda creepy feeling.
	5:15pm northguineahills: This one of those songs I haven't heard since I was in kindergarten, and used to make up the words. I got made up fun of by a group of teenagers when I was singing the wrong lyrics in a Wrangler store. I still remember that.
	5:16pm northguineahills: (Eddie Rabbit)
	5:17pm Mr. Lowry: I was gonna ask...
	5:17pm Honey Water: Mud: Great for skin and as an SPF substitute.
	5:18pm Caryn: @HW: that's why pigs wallow in it. No sweat glands and lots of pink, easily burned skin. Mud to the rescue!
	5:19pm northguineahills: I have mixed this Sesame record in to so many sets (I have many Sesame recs.
	5:20pm northguineahills: (holds up lighter)
	5:20pm Caryn: Wow, second playing in 3 days! WFMU loves Oscar!
	5:21pm northguineahills: So, Oscar is a hoarder?
	5:21pm Kurt Gottschalk: um, oscar has a rusty trombone?
	5:21pm northguineahills: Kurt beat me to the punch, damn 7 second delay...
	5:22pm Johnny Bigfoot: Dirty bugger...
	5:23pm Honey Water: Loved the line -- hey, where's the logophile song? -- Jon Stewart delivered the other day, describing Dick Cheney as a "frown hoarder."
	5:23pm Honey Water: Love this! :)
	5:25pm northguineahills: Ha, I saw that HW!
	5:26pm Honey Water: @ngh: Just so apt and on the money.
	5:26pm Caryn: Clint will soon come out with a new version, called "I Talk to Empty Chairs".
	5:29pm Peabody: Nice call on the Eddie Rabbit!
	5:31pm Honey Water: @Kurt: I can't imagine how Joe B. manages to play those 2-3 min. tracks week after week and still contribute to the comments. It's a real talent.
	5:37pm California man: more autotune should sound like this Godley and Creme song
	5:38pm Sem Chumbo: I wonder if Creme gets royalties from the internet for the use of his first name?
	5:38pm burpage: ah yes i remember hearing this on bill kellys show way back when
	5:40pm Honey Water: Along these lines, I've been known to reflexively apologize to furniture I run in to.
	5:47pm maestroso: Everyone hearts their B3s!
	5:47pm burpage: 1976 was and is still a great slice of my life with WFMU before computer stuff
	5:48pm Honey Water: Ahhhhh ....
	5:49pm California man: delicious set with the sweetest desert
	5:50pm Honey Water: On this most lovely ending JC note: TY, DJKG, for today's objectified lovefest! Best of all things good on your play performance tomorrow! Hey, FolkS, I order y'all to have as fine a weekend as you're able! Byeee!
	5:51pm Caryn: Bye, Kurt! All the best for the play!
	5:52pm burpage: have another day people
	5:56pm Johnny Bigfoot: Thanks Kurt and Krew!
	5:58pm northguineahills: Oh, fuck yeah, Kurt... and what a perfect ending!

	3:25pm Frank Booth: PRANCE!!!
	3:25pm ?: Yay a song about necrophilia!

	3:38pm Caryn: Moi vaan, HW!
	3:41pm northguineahills: Nice contrast in themes in the O'rourke to Donovan segue.

	3:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): I often yelp at dark toast.

	3:46pm Caryn: BTW, KG, nice work with writing the Symbol on the playlist.
	3:49pm northguineahills: Hmmm, I have this Ayers record, and have never heard this song.
	3:50pm paula pc: Kevin Ayers is perfect for Friday afternoooons
	3:52pm paula pc: @northguineahills -- it's on a kind of recent reissue, I think
	3:52pm Jeff: Somebody in there sounded kind of like Ivor Cutler. Or was that Ivy Catnip?
	3:52pm Caryn: @ngh: This track isn't on the original, only on the 2003 reissue.
	3:53pm Caryn: Trying to listen out for Mike Oldfield...
	3:53pm northguineahills: ahhh, thanks paula & Caryn.
	3:54pm paula pc: i swear I was going to request this, what with the guy's clothes theme
	3:54pm burpage: ah yes what a way to start a threeday threeday
	3:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): This bathroom tune is the greatest thing mankind has achieved. Seriously.
	3:58pm Honey Water: This sounds like the sorts of songs written for some industry to play at a trade show -- like for Delta Faucets or something. Very similar to the Army Corps of Engineers theme.
	3:59pm Mr. Lowry: Not Delta, American Standard.
	3:59pm Caryn: @HW: very close. Check out KG's link for the whole thing.
	3:59pm DCE: haha, I'd love to hear that one in a late-night state of mind
	4:02pm Honey Water: Ohhh, wow, Standard toilets, of course! Duh.
	4:04pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): What'd I miss?
	4:04pm Honey Water: @Rev: Forget the coroner cakes and get out the urinal cakes.
	4:05pm DCE: that whisper really caught me off guard--I actually turned around, thinking someone was behind me.
	4:06pm Sem Chumbo: @DCE: a late night state of mind moment!
	4:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): One of the very best Cakes, that Jubbo.
	4:08pm Honey Water: Now it's an early morning moment.
	4:10pm California man: a cuppa acuppa acuppa a cuppa a cup. I love the slur in java jive.
	4:11pm DCE: aha, haven't heard this Association in awhile--fun tune
	4:12pm Caryn: Hey, I just had some broccoli!
	4:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): A somewhat brighter-sounding tune than Coil's "Broccoli"
	4:12pm Fifty Shades of Chicke: I fully endorse this set.
	4:13pm phat: fifty, I second that
	4:15pm Honey Water: Caryn, you're really doing the cruciferous vegetables these days.
	4:16pm Caryn: @HW: well, trying to eat healthy when possible. And they've been on sale a lot lately. And I'm a fan of all brassicae etc.
	4:17pm DCE: Kung mi must be a hell of a volunteer
	4:18pm California man: this slow version of "A world without love" is most definitely a highlight of the set.
	4:18pm Urania: Repeating earlier message for those of you who just joined in: Good people! Did you know that Kurt Gottschalk wrote a play?? It is being performed TOMORROW (Saturday Feb 16) at 10pm at Dixon Place. Please come!

	4:19pm ?: just tuning in. worried I will be the recipient of a figure-four leglock
	4:20pm Honey Water: If someone out there had a single star fruit, what would you do with it in a recipe to best effect? Never used one in cooking before.
	4:21pm burpage: big slip daddy
	4:21pm Caryn: @HW: oh man, I've only used it in salads. Hmm...
	4:21pm DCE: anything by Glen Campbell is pure star fruit
	4:22pm Honey Water: Kurt, do you have a song "I Hate My Judgmental Smoke Detector"?
	4:23pm Honey Water: @Caryn: Raw then? Can it be braised or otherwise used to garnish some meat dish maybe?
	4:23pm burpage: honey take batries out fer awhile give em a threeday pass
	4:24pm Honey Water: Yeah, I know, I can find tons of such info searching online, but thought I'd pick the FS brains first.
	4:24pm Caryn: @HW: from Wiki: "In Southeast Asia, they are usually stewed in cloves and sugar, sometimes with apples. In China, they are cooked with fish. In Australia, they may be cooked as a vegetable, pickled, or made into jams. In Jamaica they are sometimes dried. Unripe and sour type carambolas can be mixed with other chopped spices to make relishes in Australia. In the Philippines, unripe carambolas are eaten dipped in rock salt. In Thailand, they are cooked together with shrimp. The juice from carambolas is also used in iced drinks, particularly the juice of the sour varieties. In Hawaii they are used to make sherbet, while in the Philippines they can be used as seasoning. In India, the juice is bottled for drinking.
	4:26pm DCE: oh I remember this one from those trucker LPs they used to try to sell on the UHF channels in the early 80s!
	4:26pm DCE: do CONVOY next!!
	4:26pm Honey Water: TY, Ms. Caryn! :) So fish, mostly, OK.
	4:27pm Mike East: @HW - I got one of those when I was a kid (I was really into cooking shows and they always used star fruit for something). I didn't know what to do with it, though, so I think I just sliced it and used for garnish.
	4:27pm DCE: "not sold in stores", much to my chagrin
	4:27pm Mike East: I think maybe it'd be good in like a Thai curry with coconut water or something.
	4:28pm Sem Chumbo: Phantom 309 is another Red Sovine trucker song. ( Ghost at a lonely truck stop)Tom Waits did a fine cover.
	4:28pm DCE: well highway star will always get my testosterone up a few levels
	4:28pm Cheri Pi: YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
	4:29pm DCE: I remember that one too, Sem Chumbo! good stuff. Trucker country is soooo underrated!
	4:29pm California man: OOOOOOWWWWW!!! HIIIIGHWAY STAAAAR!
	4:29pm Honey Water: So probably would work mixed with apple slices and sprinkled with chaat masala for a side relish/salad.
	4:29pm Caryn: Saw a 4-disc set of tunes collected from old gas station C cassettes in the shop today. Too bad it cost too much. Headbanging in process to DP!
	4:30pm California man: @cheri pi I see we had similar reactions to the deep purple there.
	4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): This will do nicely.
	4:34pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): ...and this.
	4:34pm Caryn: Oh, Roger Taylor and his car fixation...
	4:35pm Honey Water: Machine love songs are fine when the innuendo for actually something else is obvious.
	4:37pm Cheri Pi: California Man- it's so nice to meet another Highway Star appreciator :)
	4:37pm Honey Water: We just watched a bromance / buddy film last night with machine love, "Robot and Frank."
	4:37pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): You know, just about when it gets dark outside this evening, I'll be on 128.
	4:38pm Caryn: I love the story that Taylor locked himself in a cupboard to get the song to be the B-side to "Bohemian Rhapsody".
	4:47pm Jeff: This is deeply disturbing.
	4:49pm Honey Water: Oh Bowie, maybe my fave machine love tune!
	4:49pm Cheri Pi: What Jeff said.
	4:55pm Caryn: How does TVC 15 fit in with the car/bike set? It's about a tv.
	4:56pm Caryn: TVC 15 always makes me think of "Videodrome".
	4:56pm northguineahills: Sort of anticipated Computer Love.
	4:56pm common: have good weekends all!
	4:57pm northguineahills: Later, common!
	4:57pm tim from champaign: Really diggin the themed sets. Lots of fun.
	4:58pm California man: Kraftwerk's lyrics are so goofy that they seem profound.
	4:59pm Caryn: To paraphrase Spinal Tap, there's a fine line between goofy and profound.
	4:59pm Sem Chumbo: @Caryn: Videodrome: James Woods kissing Debbie Harry thru a TV screen.
	5:01pm Honey Water: Mmm, decided to mix this sliced star fruit with Chinese 5 spice instead of chaat masala -- spice-alicious! Almost might say I love it. Now to add the apples and clementines.
	5:02pm MuttonChops: Did Coldplay rip off Kraftwerk?
	5:03pm Johnny Bigfoot: RE: TVC15, for afters of course... http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7nzkv_david-bowie-klaus-nomi-tvc15-boys-k_music#.UR6wN4W6ZL8 ...come for Nomi, stay for the Bowie Puppet!
	5:03pm Caryn: @MuttonChops: yep, but with Kraftwerk's permission. At least they know who to borrow from.
	5:04pm Mike East: ha - I just realized that what I thought was Serge Gainsebourg was Mike Patton. Good job, Mike Patton.
	5:06pm Caryn: @Johnny: Don't forget Joey Arias.
	5:08pm Caryn: Speaking of borrowed riffs...
	5:08pm Johnny Bigfoot: Yes, and Joey Arias of course!
	5:12pm Caryn: Was favouriting too many songs, so just went and favourited the episode instead.
	5:12pm Honey Water: Only with SPF 50+.
	5:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid (xBSI): The sun can piss up a rope.
	5:13pm Johnny Bigfoot: "The Sun Never Sweats"
	5:13pm tim from champaign: I never ever ever ever ever thought I'd hear Eddie Rabbit and Velvet Underground back to back, never ever.
	5:14pm Honey Water: @Caryn: I was thinking this weekend of clearing out ALL my favoriting stars. Was a little spooked when I went looking for a tune played this past week and top item in my search showed my own profile as the link because I had starred it! Eeesh, kinda creepy feeling.
	5:15pm northguineahills: This one of those songs I haven't heard since I was in kindergarten, and used to make up the words. I got made up fun of by a group of teenagers when I was singing the wrong lyrics in a Wrangler store. I still remember that.
	5:16pm northguineahills: (Eddie Rabbit)
	5:17pm Mr. Lowry: I was gonna ask...
	5:17pm Honey Water: Mud: Great for skin and as an SPF substitute.
	5:18pm Caryn: @HW: that's why pigs wallow in it. No sweat glands and lots of pink, easily burned skin. Mud to the rescue!
	5:19pm northguineahills: I have mixed this Sesame record in to so many sets (I have many Sesame recs.
	5:20pm northguineahills: (holds up lighter)
	5:20pm Caryn: Wow, second playing in 3 days! WFMU loves Oscar!
	5:21pm northguineahills: So, Oscar is a hoarder?
	5:21pm Kurt Gottschalk: um, oscar has a rusty trombone?
	5:21pm northguineahills: Kurt beat me to the punch, damn 7 second delay...
	5:22pm Johnny Bigfoot: Dirty bugger...
	5:23pm Honey Water: Loved the line -- hey, where's the logophile song? -- Jon Stewart delivered the other day, describing Dick Cheney as a "frown hoarder."
	5:23pm Honey Water: Love this! :)
	5:25pm northguineahills: Ha, I saw that HW!
	5:26pm Honey Water: @ngh: Just so apt and on the money.
	5:26pm Caryn: Clint will soon come out with a new version, called "I Talk to Empty Chairs".
	5:29pm Peabody: Nice call on the Eddie Rabbit!
	5:31pm Honey Water: @Kurt: I can't imagine how Joe B. manages to play those 2-3 min. tracks week after week and still contribute to the comments. It's a real talent.
	5:37pm California man: more autotune should sound like this Godley and Creme song
	5:38pm Sem Chumbo: I wonder if Creme gets royalties from the internet for the use of his first name?
	5:38pm burpage: ah yes i remember hearing this on bill kellys show way back when
	5:40pm Honey Water: Along these lines, I've been known to reflexively apologize to furniture I run in to.
	5:47pm maestroso: Everyone hearts their B3s!
	5:47pm burpage: 1976 was and is still a great slice of my life with WFMU before computer stuff
	5:48pm Honey Water: Ahhhhh ....
	5:49pm California man: delicious set with the sweetest desert
	5:50pm Honey Water: On this most lovely ending JC note: TY, DJKG, for today's objectified lovefest! Best of all things good on your play performance tomorrow! Hey, FolkS, I order y'all to have as fine a weekend as you're able! Byeee!
	5:51pm Caryn: Bye, Kurt! All the best for the play!
	5:52pm burpage: have another day people
	5:56pm Johnny Bigfoot: Thanks Kurt and Krew!
	5:58pm northguineahills: Oh, fuck yeah, Kurt... and what a perfect ending!
