	9:07am Cory: or should that be "boop"?
	9:08am bibi: it's not even boring, robots are not even boring. what's left for us if they are not even boring ? are we sure liz is not one of them ? remember she can produce laser sounds all by herself.
	9:09am bibi: we are the ones enjoying listening to robots. thats already quite a lot...
	9:09am northguineahills: What if it's a mining robot, then it can be a boring robot?
	9:16am common: what about a mining, moonshine drinkin', backporch robot? Those are my favorite.
	9:16am northguineahills: Digging the Lithis!
	9:18am northguineahills: Is that related to the Bender model, common?
	9:22am dc pat: Where can I get me one of them miningmoonshinedrinkinbackporch robots?
	9:24am Cubicle Carl: Doing some crazy work this morning, and this music is almost making it fun. Thanks, Liz.
	9:25am Liz Berg: Vaya con dios, Cubicle Carl!
	9:26am common: i think so, ngh.
	9:26am bibi: instrumental version, so what is happening to josie ? is she battling backporch robots ?
	9:26am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning Liz + everybody!
	9:27am common: @bibi: heeheehee!!! exactly!
	9:31am Liz Berg: A man calls the studio, I pick up the phone and say "Hello, WFMU." He asks, "Is this Nachum Segal?" Is there some type of remedial course for this sort of thing?
	9:33am bibi: keep it that eclectic liz, many robots & humans love it.
	9:33am common: is this nachum segal, liz?
	9:33am kosta: Domorigato mr roboto! 111001110011101011101011100110100001111010100101010!
	9:34am Liz Berg: Perhaps my voice is sounding extra booming and manly today.
	9:35am bibi: robots dont have colds, flus and stuff. that might mean liz is eventually not a robot.
	9:36am bibi: @kosta : i love the third octet of yr comment.
	9:37am dc pat: I can't get over the fact that EVERY single time some one calls our normal phone at home and gets the answering machine, they start talking to the out-going message, like "Hello? Hello? Yes this is....Hello?" Are people becoming dumber or more deaf?
	9:40am kosta: Bibi, consider also 110000000010101111111100. Dc, both!
	9:40am common: distracted? deaf? Hello? Who is this? Who am I?
	9:41am Liz Berg: Hilarious, DC Pat! I'm convinced that people don't read anything past the first 140 characters anymore, so they must not listen past the first few words, either. In fact, I'm going to reveal a secret here that only the folks who are paying attention will even see: I always carry dental floss with me.
	9:42am mariano: 'Morning Nachum, all!
	9:42am dc pat: What?
	9:43am Kevlicki: Good morning Liz Nice to have met you in the farmers market the other day!
	9:44am bibi: zombie zombie are so didactic. this dental floss revelation is, hm, disturbing. i cant wait for yr next vocal intermission so that we learn more about it.
	9:45am Liz Berg: Hi Kevlicki! Nice meeting you, too! Hope the rain didn't wash away all of the shoppers.
	9:48am dc pat: Sooooo, tell us more about the dental floss.... but keep it short.
	9:49am DCE: I'll you about the pygmy pony instead
	9:52am Liz Berg: Ha ha, there's no real story behind the dental floss. I always carry earplugs as well, both items are merely practical. Am I the only overly-prepared weirdo here? What do you guys always carry with you?
	9:55am dc pat: Wallet, keys, guitar picks...
	9:56am bibi: that's your robot side, liz ;) i carry a little squared scarlett johansson in my pocket. very practical. concerning earplugs, one needs the pro ones with the tailor made plastic box. the regular single use ones, i just destroy the package and stick my fingers on them long before needing them...
	9:56am common: keys, sometimes a wooden monkey holding onto a peach.
	9:56am kosta: Apatt from the reg keys, phone etc...My glasses, a waterproof jacket, and a plastic bag.
	9:58am kosta: And THOUGHTS. Lots of em.
	9:58am Kevlicki: I carry way too much with me! I've got metal chopsticks, my phone charger, and my mini rechargeable speakers-so I can play WFMU for everyone, wherever I go. The hyper productive NYer in me always needs an arts and craft project
	9:59am mariano: I always carry (in my knapsack) Purel, because it's NYC and you never know what you'll accidentally touch (I'm not a compulsive hand washer, honest), a small packet of Kleenex, because nothing is worse than needing them and not having them, especially in Winter on the subway. Then of course my trusty dugout and one-hitter, another essential item of urban survival. Other than that, phone, music, ear buds, the usual.
	9:59am bibi: who got the worst key ring accessory ? i confess a 15 yo lego darth vador. only chest & head remain since a while; was somehow premonitory.
	9:59am dc pat: DEATH TO ROBOTS, LET'S ROCK!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
	10:00am Kevlicki: It's appropriate to always carry a good attitude with you. Especially considering you're most likely to encounter a bad one at some point in your day
	10:01am dc pat: LiveFastDie is my new fav band.
	10:04am dc pat: I always carry my stupid phone too and that bugs me. I have to have it for family communication but these dumb things irritate me to no end. I'd be fine with them if everyone wasn't so freaking obsessed with them. they're actually quite remarkable.
	10:06am mariano: @Kevlicki: I agree. I've been practicing my attitude because I can be a real grump dealing with NYC crowds. My day always goes better when I make an effort to be pleasant to people.
	10:07am bibi: liz, sorry i didnt catch what you said about kid million, did you play some side project from him ?
	10:07am Planet Tyler: I always carry my (point-n-shoot) camera, a writing tool, my bizness card cos I can't remember my work teley, I often forget my wallet, and should think of my phone more often.
	10:07am Gary: I carry big almost-noise-cancelling headphones on the train in to work, mostly so I don't have to listen to annoying convos.
	10:09am Planet Tyler: O and I put a hankercheif in every pair of pants so I don't forget one of those. Poopey bags for the dog too.
	10:11am Liz Berg: You guys are more prepared than I am! Who knew the WFMU listeners were such good boy/girl scouts!? Kevlicki has a great point about the good attitude, too... essential for survival, esp here in the oh-so-friendly tri-state area.
	10:12am Sem Chumbo: Baking bread and listening, baking bread and listening, baking and listening. This is a good show to bake by, Liz. Good morning, and hello Lizards hither and yon.
	10:12am Gary: + chamois for glasses, tiny notebook + pen, both Queens and Manhattan library cards
	10:12am Liz Berg: Bibi, I just mentioned that Kid Millions was in Oneida, a band that I have professed my love for many times.
	10:14am Cheri Pi: this is so freaking good. Heya Liz!
	10:16am Yair yona: I love percussion music so much. This is incredible
	10:18am DCE: yeah, Kid Millions has it goin' on there...sorry I missed him when he came through recently
	10:18am common: been thinking about doing a solo project with drums and voice. good stuff!
	10:18am Guido from Cologne: @Liz Will anybody pull Quilt (often played on FMU) to the FMU-studios for some live session? They will be ending thei US tour in NY this week. www.quiltmusic.org... they shared stage with Bogarins on Austin psych. Funnily they didn#t know WFMU, but occasionally they perform for free.
	10:19am dc pat: Hey LizB, got any Chain and the Gang? there was a piece in the WashPost about Svenonius. Love that guy...
	10:20am northguineahills: Hmmm, i floss maybe once every three months, and still have yet to have a cavity (knock on wood). My phone is always in my pocket, but I usually have a few books in my bag, along w/ an umbrella. Let's see, also sunglasses, mints, and during the non summer months, an extra layer.
	10:21am bibi: is the original by eno (st elmo) ?
	10:23am dc pat: I don't have a standard bag as I'm always on my bike and try not to carry anything. So really everything is on my phone.....I just thought of a song idea which I recorded on it.
	10:23am mariano: @NGH: The one thing I love about Winter is having all the extra pockets! I have this enormous parka with zippers and pockets everywhere, and sometimes I'll find money from the previous Winter in there.
	10:23am dc pat: @ngh: same here, I've had maybe 2 cavities in my life.
	10:25am Kevlicki: dc pat, I put a handlebar bag on my bike just for that purpose!
	10:26am northguineahills: @ mariano: Was dry cleaning my winter coats this weekend and found about $15 in my pockets.
	10:27am mariano: @NGH: Ka-ching!
	10:27am Rev. Turnip Druid: BEHOLD! ....am WITCHU now.
	10:27am dc pat: @Kevlicki: I hear ya but I try to keep it light as possible when riding
	10:28am dc pat: This Real Estate tune rules.
	10:28am Kevlicki: just think of all these winter coat pocket donations for WFMU!
	10:29am ShortHairHippy: Paul from >Pottersville. lovin today wit fmu
	10:29am mariano: Ahh, Real Estate, very nice! Therese was playing some last night too, if I recall correctly (never a safe bet).
	10:30am Liz Berg: Today's show will feature not one, but two songs about tightropes. Maybe it's because I've been thinking about dental floss.
	10:30am dc pat: wait, Real Estate is nice but I meant the Baby Drill song. That was killer.
	10:31am DCE: don't walk that dental floss tightrope, hon
	10:32am Ike: Liz, your "is this Nachum Segal?" comment made me laugh, and on a Mon. morning, too. Cheers. I have a long commute, so I always carry way too much w/me, but nothing v. exciting. Prob. about 75% of the items already mentioned above. Floss was a recent addition (eating lots of coconut lately, I guess).
	10:35am dc pat: holy crap, think I just saw an eagle!
	10:36am common: really, dc pat? wow! hello reverend.
	10:37am bibi: this household sounds a lot like some old sleater kinney, isnt it linked somehow ?
	10:37am dc pat: flapping (which vultures rarely do) and def white head. nice.
	10:39am dc pat: I love this set dearly.
	10:39am common: wish i could see it, dcp. sounds nice.
	10:41am Rev. Turnip Druid: Vacation a while back, went to Sitka, AK -- Bald eagles so plentiful they were like pigeons. It was rather hilarious.
	10:41am mariano: @dc pat: Did you catch that article on the 13-year-old Mongolian girl who hunts with a golden eagle in -40 degree weather? Had no idea eagles could get so big.
	10:43am dc pat: dangit mariano, saw it but forgot to go back and read it. @Rev: they're actually getting pretty numerous around here. I saw a ton of them last year. Endangered Species Act to thank for that.
	10:44am mariano: Here it is. She's a strong candidate for badassest human being on the planet. Her life is a heavy metal album cover: www.bbc.com...
	10:44am dc pat: this song is brilliant.
	10:47am Rev. Turnip Druid: Aye, DCP. The Potomac brings all manner of odd creatures up here. Rock Creek as well. My street got buzzed by an owl recently -- sailing thru the long tunnel of row-house porches. My guess is he was after bugs attracted by porch-lights. Groovy little beast.
	10:47am common: this set is great liz! thanks!
	10:47am Kevlicki: @dc pat I think it also has to do with the reduction of DDT and other toxic chemicals that had poisoned their food supply. I remember reading research on such things years ago. Stupid no one decided to research how it would affect the HUMAN food supply, til after using it
	10:48am dc pat: nice song stupid group name "Native American" I saw "Soccer Team" the other day and couldn't enjoy their tunes because of their idiotic name.
	10:50am dc pat: @Kevlicki: You're right about that--made their egg shells too thin.
	10:51am drumsoverbogota: Good morning everybody! Does anybode knows what is the song that plays in the background as Liz speaks?
	10:51am bibi: this trampoline team has some smart production, like that high pitched feedback that spread on the last verse. nice.
	10:53am northguineahills: ah, forgot to mention, if it's the weekend, I usually have a flask in my bag.
	10:54am Tome: Hey LiZ B. Hey Kiddles,, sweating to the oldies yea. or newies ..
	10:55am common: ngh: i have beer in my bag quite a bit of the time.
	10:55am ty stamp: what is the fuzzy electronic cover song in the background right now?
	10:55am dc pat: a flask is a good idea...actually, maybe a really bad one...
	10:57am bibi: the idea of a band composing a song about killing a critics that bashed their work is lovely to me.
	10:58am bibi: @dcp, or a wfmu one, obviously !
	10:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh, nice. I've been photographing DC surveillance cameras for years...
	10:58am northguineahills: I pretty much only have a beer in my bag if I'm going to the cinema.
	11:00am dc pat: Arawak = another stupid group name. What is this??
	11:00am ty stamp: how was it doing that Archie cover song of Sugar Sugar? It was really great!
	11:00am Greg from Bloomfield: This'll do...
	11:00am ty stamp: not how, ugh "who"
	11:01am Rev. Turnip Druid: SPEAKING OF SURVEILLANCE: This morning a Google Street-View camera car missed capturing my dog in the middle of a colossal dump by about 45 seconds. Alas...
	11:02am Liz Berg: The "Sugar Sugar" cover was by Claude Denjean.
	11:03am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...what could have been...
	11:05am mariano: @RTD: In a previous iteration of my building's Google Street-View, my late great cat was sitting in the window, making a nice silhouette.
	11:07am northguineahills: Arawak was the name of a Caribbean native american tribe. Ok, I gotta go! Thanks again Liz!
	11:07am ty stamp: thank you so much Liz, I loved it plus all the electronic and library music since the break!
	11:07am bibi: talking crazy google street views, have you seen wayne coyne in oklahoma city, lying in his outdoor bathtub ? collector.
	11:08am Chris from DC: I made it into Google Street View while in Brooklyn last year. Strange experience.
	11:09am dc pat: bibi: WHAT? Really?
	11:10am dc pat: that's why it's stupid.
	11:10am Liz Berg: Once when I was apt-hunting I did street view for a place that was listed and there was a guy being cuffed by the cops on the stoop!
	11:11am mariano: @Liz: Hah, classic! @bibi: DO tell, come on!
	11:11am Rev. Turnip Druid: God, that sounds like my poor mothballed TR-505..
	11:12am bibi: maps.google.com...
	11:13am bibi: there are people pretending to be weirdoes, and there are weirdoes.
	11:14am mariano: @bibi: Wow! Thanks for that.
	11:15am common: liz: i looked up a street view of an apt. i was moving into in providence and you could see a woman with her shirt off in the window. ah, privacy.
	11:18am EL MUSGO: LOVING UR SHOW!!!! thanks.
	11:20am mariano: @common: Let me guess, they blurred her face and nothing else.
	11:20am Liz Berg: The surveillance stuff is pretty creepy these days. Can't wait for next week's show... B. Walker will take my paranoia to a whole new level, ha ha!
	11:21am dc pat: Coyne is def weirdo. Met him several times.
	11:22am dc pat: rich weirdo now.
	11:23am Whosondephone: YEAH!!!
	11:23am mariano: Ok, gotta run. Thanks for an amazing show as always, Liz, and have a wonderful day and week everyone!
	11:23am KOTJ: If anyone can creep you out...it's Ben Walker.
	11:23am Whosondephone: THAT'S GOOD!!!
	11:28am Kevlicki: one of the reasons why art projects like the OFFpocket, are sold out offpocket.com
	11:30am dc pat: ok, let's switch over to food talk. Think I'm going for a tofu bahn mi sandwich today.
	11:30am common: mariano: correct. and have a good week!
	11:30am Kevlicki: wearing my ONYEABOR shirt today!
	11:31am steve: you guys just reminded me of my favorite google street view moment boringpittsburgh.com...
	11:31am Rev. Turnip Druid: dammit now i need to scan for food-trucks.
	11:31am Carmichael: Hey Liz and peoples. Trying to survive Monday morning. I have antacid tablets, loose change and guitar picks in my pocket.
	11:32am common: @steve: HA! used to live in pittsburgh. think i may have seen those two.
	11:32am Kevlicki: Steve, was that part of the "Streets with a view" action that happened in Pittsburgh? www.streetwithaview.com
	11:32am dc pat: yeah, that's what I just did @Rev. Alright @Carm! Guitar picks!!
	11:33am dc pat: I wonder if that pgh one was planned...
	11:33am blee: CHROME!!!!!!
	11:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Alrighty then. The Chatpak truck is docked within a couple of blocks. Chickpea curry is assured.
	11:35am bibi: @steve, brilliant one. and then you have some psyche stuff happening in the cam shots collage. www.streetviewfun.com...
	11:35am Kevlicki: @dc Pat check out the link posted above, a handful of friends have planned street view actions
	11:36am Liz Berg: Love that cat shot, Bibi!
	11:36am steve: hmm good question Kevlicki. i remember it was on a bunch of those "best google street view moments" lists a few years ago with no mention of that event. common's comment leads me to believe this may be unrelated and that these guys have bi weekly viking sword battles in the park/vacant lot. or that's what i hope.
	11:39am Whosondephone: IT'S A COMMODORE!
	11:40am Kevlicki: I weas astonished the first time I saw the Sunday LARPers in Mont Royal park in Montreal. Around 50 people "play" battling in the park EVERY week. It was amusing, there were folks in more historical costumes fighting folks with alien monster masks on. All playing by the same rules. Check it out if you get the chance!
	11:42am bibi: @kevlicki, i thought collaborating with google was evil ;)
	11:43am Carmichael: A little too strange for my tastes.
	11:44am drumsoverbogota: That wasn't the music of a Atari game?
	11:44am dc pat: jeeze just been emailing back and forth about all the craziness that's going on with Coyne these days...not a good craziness either.
	11:44am Carmichael: Or an ice cream truck?
	11:45am Ken From Hyde Park: Summer is on the way when Liz plays the ice cream truck song.
	11:45am Mike East: I always carry a bottle of water, a magazine to read, a granola bar in case of low blood sugar, and a bandana. Also, a pen, and gum which replaced cigarettes.
	11:45am ShortHairHippy: i like mr softie music
	11:45am Mike East: and for lunch I have a salmon/tofu scramble.
	11:47am bibi: good nude ? sorry, liz, my english is quite poor and i hope i didnt misunderstand....
	11:50am Sem Chumbo: Thanks for the spins this morning, Liz. I'm thinking that, like cows, ovens produce good things in the presence of good sounds. Made some rye soda bread. With blue cheese, it's lunch. Later!
	11:50am Liz Berg: Good mood (which I pronounced "meeouud" for reasons I cannot explain).
	11:51am steve: i used to be all about the big Slurpies with those sour sugar coated candy straws
	11:51am bibi: argh.
	11:53am KP: Was in a comment dead zone out there. Just wanted to say hello. Hello, Liz.
	11:53am Stevel: I discovered Creem Magazine at the 7-11. Nothing was quite the same after that. Also got a cat, one night. I spent a LOT of time there, and a LOT of quarters on pinball.
	11:54am Stevel: BTW: This is a hell of a set. You're making it hard to sit still.
	11:54am drumsoverbogota: Nice riff of The Ones
	11:56am Jeremy N: You are putting mee in a geeouudd meeouud, deeoude! BTW, the Joel Selvin song was by The Fried Abortions. How on earth could you forget that name?
	11:56am ShortHairHippy: Thanks for a great show Liz
	11:57am bibi: thx anyway for this good mude mix, liz.
	11:57am KP: Same here.
	12:00pm davex: Thanks Liz, great start to the FMU week!

Listener comments!
	9:03am bibi: hi all. arpeggiators and random sequencers are such good buddies.

	9:05am northguineahills: Mmmmm..., potpie, now I want one!
	9:05am DCE: morning, folks
	9:05am Liz Berg: Bleeps to you all and welcome!
	9:07am Cory: bleep you too Liz!
	9:07am Cory: or should that be "boop"?
	9:08am bibi: it's not even boring, robots are not even boring. what's left for us if they are not even boring ? are we sure liz is not one of them ? remember she can produce laser sounds all by herself.
	9:09am bibi: we are the ones enjoying listening to robots. thats already quite a lot...
	9:09am northguineahills: What if it's a mining robot, then it can be a boring robot?
	9:16am common: what about a mining, moonshine drinkin', backporch robot? Those are my favorite.
	9:16am northguineahills: Digging the Lithis!
	9:18am northguineahills: Is that related to the Bender model, common?
	9:22am dc pat: Where can I get me one of them miningmoonshinedrinkinbackporch robots?
	9:24am Cubicle Carl: Doing some crazy work this morning, and this music is almost making it fun. Thanks, Liz.
	9:25am Liz Berg: Vaya con dios, Cubicle Carl!
	9:26am common: i think so, ngh.
	9:26am bibi: instrumental version, so what is happening to josie ? is she battling backporch robots ?
	9:26am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning Liz + everybody!
	9:27am common: @bibi: heeheehee!!! exactly!
	9:31am Liz Berg: A man calls the studio, I pick up the phone and say "Hello, WFMU." He asks, "Is this Nachum Segal?" Is there some type of remedial course for this sort of thing?
	9:33am bibi: keep it that eclectic liz, many robots & humans love it.
	9:33am common: is this nachum segal, liz?
	9:33am kosta: Domorigato mr roboto! 111001110011101011101011100110100001111010100101010!
	9:34am Liz Berg: Perhaps my voice is sounding extra booming and manly today.
	9:35am bibi: robots dont have colds, flus and stuff. that might mean liz is eventually not a robot.
	9:36am bibi: @kosta : i love the third octet of yr comment.
	9:37am dc pat: I can't get over the fact that EVERY single time some one calls our normal phone at home and gets the answering machine, they start talking to the out-going message, like "Hello? Hello? Yes this is....Hello?" Are people becoming dumber or more deaf?
	9:40am kosta: Bibi, consider also 110000000010101111111100. Dc, both!
	9:40am common: distracted? deaf? Hello? Who is this? Who am I?
	9:41am Liz Berg: Hilarious, DC Pat! I'm convinced that people don't read anything past the first 140 characters anymore, so they must not listen past the first few words, either. In fact, I'm going to reveal a secret here that only the folks who are paying attention will even see: I always carry dental floss with me.
	9:42am mariano: 'Morning Nachum, all!
	9:42am dc pat: What?
	9:43am Kevlicki: Good morning Liz Nice to have met you in the farmers market the other day!
	9:44am bibi: zombie zombie are so didactic. this dental floss revelation is, hm, disturbing. i cant wait for yr next vocal intermission so that we learn more about it.
	9:45am Liz Berg: Hi Kevlicki! Nice meeting you, too! Hope the rain didn't wash away all of the shoppers.
	9:48am dc pat: Sooooo, tell us more about the dental floss.... but keep it short.
	9:49am DCE: I'll you about the pygmy pony instead
	9:52am Liz Berg: Ha ha, there's no real story behind the dental floss. I always carry earplugs as well, both items are merely practical. Am I the only overly-prepared weirdo here? What do you guys always carry with you?
	9:55am dc pat: Wallet, keys, guitar picks...
	9:56am bibi: that's your robot side, liz ;) i carry a little squared scarlett johansson in my pocket. very practical. concerning earplugs, one needs the pro ones with the tailor made plastic box. the regular single use ones, i just destroy the package and stick my fingers on them long before needing them...
	9:56am common: keys, sometimes a wooden monkey holding onto a peach.
	9:56am kosta: Apatt from the reg keys, phone etc...My glasses, a waterproof jacket, and a plastic bag.
	9:58am kosta: And THOUGHTS. Lots of em.
	9:58am Kevlicki: I carry way too much with me! I've got metal chopsticks, my phone charger, and my mini rechargeable speakers-so I can play WFMU for everyone, wherever I go. The hyper productive NYer in me always needs an arts and craft project
	9:59am mariano: I always carry (in my knapsack) Purel, because it's NYC and you never know what you'll accidentally touch (I'm not a compulsive hand washer, honest), a small packet of Kleenex, because nothing is worse than needing them and not having them, especially in Winter on the subway. Then of course my trusty dugout and one-hitter, another essential item of urban survival. Other than that, phone, music, ear buds, the usual.
	9:59am bibi: who got the worst key ring accessory ? i confess a 15 yo lego darth vador. only chest & head remain since a while; was somehow premonitory.
	9:59am dc pat: DEATH TO ROBOTS, LET'S ROCK!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
	10:00am Kevlicki: It's appropriate to always carry a good attitude with you. Especially considering you're most likely to encounter a bad one at some point in your day
	10:01am dc pat: LiveFastDie is my new fav band.
	10:04am dc pat: I always carry my stupid phone too and that bugs me. I have to have it for family communication but these dumb things irritate me to no end. I'd be fine with them if everyone wasn't so freaking obsessed with them. they're actually quite remarkable.
	10:06am mariano: @Kevlicki: I agree. I've been practicing my attitude because I can be a real grump dealing with NYC crowds. My day always goes better when I make an effort to be pleasant to people.
	10:07am bibi: liz, sorry i didnt catch what you said about kid million, did you play some side project from him ?
	10:07am Planet Tyler: I always carry my (point-n-shoot) camera, a writing tool, my bizness card cos I can't remember my work teley, I often forget my wallet, and should think of my phone more often.
	10:07am Gary: I carry big almost-noise-cancelling headphones on the train in to work, mostly so I don't have to listen to annoying convos.
	10:09am Planet Tyler: O and I put a hankercheif in every pair of pants so I don't forget one of those. Poopey bags for the dog too.
	10:11am Liz Berg: You guys are more prepared than I am! Who knew the WFMU listeners were such good boy/girl scouts!? Kevlicki has a great point about the good attitude, too... essential for survival, esp here in the oh-so-friendly tri-state area.
	10:12am Sem Chumbo: Baking bread and listening, baking bread and listening, baking and listening. This is a good show to bake by, Liz. Good morning, and hello Lizards hither and yon.
	10:12am Gary: + chamois for glasses, tiny notebook + pen, both Queens and Manhattan library cards
	10:12am Liz Berg: Bibi, I just mentioned that Kid Millions was in Oneida, a band that I have professed my love for many times.
	10:14am Cheri Pi: this is so freaking good. Heya Liz!
	10:16am Yair yona: I love percussion music so much. This is incredible
	10:18am DCE: yeah, Kid Millions has it goin' on there...sorry I missed him when he came through recently
	10:18am common: been thinking about doing a solo project with drums and voice. good stuff!
	10:18am Guido from Cologne: @Liz Will anybody pull Quilt (often played on FMU) to the FMU-studios for some live session? They will be ending thei US tour in NY this week. www.quiltmusic.org... they shared stage with Bogarins on Austin psych. Funnily they didn#t know WFMU, but occasionally they perform for free.
	10:19am dc pat: Hey LizB, got any Chain and the Gang? there was a piece in the WashPost about Svenonius. Love that guy...
	10:20am northguineahills: Hmmm, i floss maybe once every three months, and still have yet to have a cavity (knock on wood). My phone is always in my pocket, but I usually have a few books in my bag, along w/ an umbrella. Let's see, also sunglasses, mints, and during the non summer months, an extra layer.
	10:21am bibi: is the original by eno (st elmo) ?
	10:23am dc pat: I don't have a standard bag as I'm always on my bike and try not to carry anything. So really everything is on my phone.....I just thought of a song idea which I recorded on it.
	10:23am mariano: @NGH: The one thing I love about Winter is having all the extra pockets! I have this enormous parka with zippers and pockets everywhere, and sometimes I'll find money from the previous Winter in there.
	10:23am dc pat: @ngh: same here, I've had maybe 2 cavities in my life.
	10:25am Kevlicki: dc pat, I put a handlebar bag on my bike just for that purpose!
	10:26am northguineahills: @ mariano: Was dry cleaning my winter coats this weekend and found about $15 in my pockets.
	10:27am mariano: @NGH: Ka-ching!
	10:27am Rev. Turnip Druid: BEHOLD! ....am WITCHU now.
	10:27am dc pat: @Kevlicki: I hear ya but I try to keep it light as possible when riding
	10:28am dc pat: This Real Estate tune rules.
	10:28am Kevlicki: just think of all these winter coat pocket donations for WFMU!
	10:29am ShortHairHippy: Paul from >Pottersville. lovin today wit fmu
	10:29am mariano: Ahh, Real Estate, very nice! Therese was playing some last night too, if I recall correctly (never a safe bet).
	10:30am Liz Berg: Today's show will feature not one, but two songs about tightropes. Maybe it's because I've been thinking about dental floss.
	10:30am dc pat: wait, Real Estate is nice but I meant the Baby Drill song. That was killer.
	10:31am DCE: don't walk that dental floss tightrope, hon
	10:32am Ike: Liz, your "is this Nachum Segal?" comment made me laugh, and on a Mon. morning, too. Cheers. I have a long commute, so I always carry way too much w/me, but nothing v. exciting. Prob. about 75% of the items already mentioned above. Floss was a recent addition (eating lots of coconut lately, I guess).
	10:35am dc pat: holy crap, think I just saw an eagle!
	10:36am common: really, dc pat? wow! hello reverend.
	10:37am bibi: this household sounds a lot like some old sleater kinney, isnt it linked somehow ?
	10:37am dc pat: flapping (which vultures rarely do) and def white head. nice.
	10:39am dc pat: I love this set dearly.
	10:39am common: wish i could see it, dcp. sounds nice.
	10:41am Rev. Turnip Druid: Vacation a while back, went to Sitka, AK -- Bald eagles so plentiful they were like pigeons. It was rather hilarious.
	10:41am mariano: @dc pat: Did you catch that article on the 13-year-old Mongolian girl who hunts with a golden eagle in -40 degree weather? Had no idea eagles could get so big.
	10:43am dc pat: dangit mariano, saw it but forgot to go back and read it. @Rev: they're actually getting pretty numerous around here. I saw a ton of them last year. Endangered Species Act to thank for that.
	10:44am mariano: Here it is. She's a strong candidate for badassest human being on the planet. Her life is a heavy metal album cover: www.bbc.com...
	10:44am dc pat: this song is brilliant.
	10:47am Rev. Turnip Druid: Aye, DCP. The Potomac brings all manner of odd creatures up here. Rock Creek as well. My street got buzzed by an owl recently -- sailing thru the long tunnel of row-house porches. My guess is he was after bugs attracted by porch-lights. Groovy little beast.
	10:47am common: this set is great liz! thanks!
	10:47am Kevlicki: @dc pat I think it also has to do with the reduction of DDT and other toxic chemicals that had poisoned their food supply. I remember reading research on such things years ago. Stupid no one decided to research how it would affect the HUMAN food supply, til after using it
	10:48am dc pat: nice song stupid group name "Native American" I saw "Soccer Team" the other day and couldn't enjoy their tunes because of their idiotic name.
	10:50am dc pat: @Kevlicki: You're right about that--made their egg shells too thin.
	10:51am drumsoverbogota: Good morning everybody! Does anybode knows what is the song that plays in the background as Liz speaks?
	10:51am bibi: this trampoline team has some smart production, like that high pitched feedback that spread on the last verse. nice.
	10:53am northguineahills: ah, forgot to mention, if it's the weekend, I usually have a flask in my bag.
	10:54am Tome: Hey LiZ B. Hey Kiddles,, sweating to the oldies yea. or newies ..
	10:55am common: ngh: i have beer in my bag quite a bit of the time.
	10:55am ty stamp: what is the fuzzy electronic cover song in the background right now?
	10:55am dc pat: a flask is a good idea...actually, maybe a really bad one...
	10:57am bibi: the idea of a band composing a song about killing a critics that bashed their work is lovely to me.
	10:58am bibi: @dcp, or a wfmu one, obviously !
	10:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh, nice. I've been photographing DC surveillance cameras for years...
	10:58am northguineahills: I pretty much only have a beer in my bag if I'm going to the cinema.
	11:00am dc pat: Arawak = another stupid group name. What is this??
	11:00am ty stamp: how was it doing that Archie cover song of Sugar Sugar? It was really great!
	11:00am Greg from Bloomfield: This'll do...
	11:00am ty stamp: not how, ugh "who"
	11:01am Rev. Turnip Druid: SPEAKING OF SURVEILLANCE: This morning a Google Street-View camera car missed capturing my dog in the middle of a colossal dump by about 45 seconds. Alas...
	11:02am Liz Berg: The "Sugar Sugar" cover was by Claude Denjean.
	11:03am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...what could have been...
	11:05am mariano: @RTD: In a previous iteration of my building's Google Street-View, my late great cat was sitting in the window, making a nice silhouette.
	11:07am northguineahills: Arawak was the name of a Caribbean native american tribe. Ok, I gotta go! Thanks again Liz!
	11:07am ty stamp: thank you so much Liz, I loved it plus all the electronic and library music since the break!
	11:07am bibi: talking crazy google street views, have you seen wayne coyne in oklahoma city, lying in his outdoor bathtub ? collector.
	11:08am Chris from DC: I made it into Google Street View while in Brooklyn last year. Strange experience.
	11:09am dc pat: bibi: WHAT? Really?
	11:10am dc pat: that's why it's stupid.
	11:10am Liz Berg: Once when I was apt-hunting I did street view for a place that was listed and there was a guy being cuffed by the cops on the stoop!
	11:11am mariano: @Liz: Hah, classic! @bibi: DO tell, come on!
	11:11am Rev. Turnip Druid: God, that sounds like my poor mothballed TR-505..
	11:12am bibi: maps.google.com...
	11:13am bibi: there are people pretending to be weirdoes, and there are weirdoes.
	11:14am mariano: @bibi: Wow! Thanks for that.
	11:15am common: liz: i looked up a street view of an apt. i was moving into in providence and you could see a woman with her shirt off in the window. ah, privacy.
	11:18am EL MUSGO: LOVING UR SHOW!!!! thanks.
	11:20am mariano: @common: Let me guess, they blurred her face and nothing else.
	11:20am Liz Berg: The surveillance stuff is pretty creepy these days. Can't wait for next week's show... B. Walker will take my paranoia to a whole new level, ha ha!
	11:21am dc pat: Coyne is def weirdo. Met him several times.
	11:22am dc pat: rich weirdo now.
	11:23am Whosondephone: YEAH!!!
	11:23am mariano: Ok, gotta run. Thanks for an amazing show as always, Liz, and have a wonderful day and week everyone!
	11:23am KOTJ: If anyone can creep you out...it's Ben Walker.
	11:23am Whosondephone: THAT'S GOOD!!!
	11:28am Kevlicki: one of the reasons why art projects like the OFFpocket, are sold out offpocket.com
	11:30am dc pat: ok, let's switch over to food talk. Think I'm going for a tofu bahn mi sandwich today.
	11:30am common: mariano: correct. and have a good week!
	11:30am Kevlicki: wearing my ONYEABOR shirt today!
	11:31am steve: you guys just reminded me of my favorite google street view moment boringpittsburgh.com...
	11:31am Rev. Turnip Druid: dammit now i need to scan for food-trucks.
	11:31am Carmichael: Hey Liz and peoples. Trying to survive Monday morning. I have antacid tablets, loose change and guitar picks in my pocket.
	11:32am common: @steve: HA! used to live in pittsburgh. think i may have seen those two.
	11:32am Kevlicki: Steve, was that part of the "Streets with a view" action that happened in Pittsburgh? www.streetwithaview.com
	11:32am dc pat: yeah, that's what I just did @Rev. Alright @Carm! Guitar picks!!
	11:33am dc pat: I wonder if that pgh one was planned...
	11:33am blee: CHROME!!!!!!
	11:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Alrighty then. The Chatpak truck is docked within a couple of blocks. Chickpea curry is assured.
	11:35am bibi: @steve, brilliant one. and then you have some psyche stuff happening in the cam shots collage. www.streetviewfun.com...
	11:35am Kevlicki: @dc Pat check out the link posted above, a handful of friends have planned street view actions
	11:36am Liz Berg: Love that cat shot, Bibi!
	11:36am steve: hmm good question Kevlicki. i remember it was on a bunch of those "best google street view moments" lists a few years ago with no mention of that event. common's comment leads me to believe this may be unrelated and that these guys have bi weekly viking sword battles in the park/vacant lot. or that's what i hope.
	11:39am Whosondephone: IT'S A COMMODORE!
	11:40am Kevlicki: I weas astonished the first time I saw the Sunday LARPers in Mont Royal park in Montreal. Around 50 people "play" battling in the park EVERY week. It was amusing, there were folks in more historical costumes fighting folks with alien monster masks on. All playing by the same rules. Check it out if you get the chance!
	11:42am bibi: @kevlicki, i thought collaborating with google was evil ;)
	11:43am Carmichael: A little too strange for my tastes.
	11:44am drumsoverbogota: That wasn't the music of a Atari game?
	11:44am dc pat: jeeze just been emailing back and forth about all the craziness that's going on with Coyne these days...not a good craziness either.
	11:44am Carmichael: Or an ice cream truck?
	11:45am Ken From Hyde Park: Summer is on the way when Liz plays the ice cream truck song.
	11:45am Mike East: I always carry a bottle of water, a magazine to read, a granola bar in case of low blood sugar, and a bandana. Also, a pen, and gum which replaced cigarettes.
	11:45am ShortHairHippy: i like mr softie music
	11:45am Mike East: and for lunch I have a salmon/tofu scramble.
	11:47am bibi: good nude ? sorry, liz, my english is quite poor and i hope i didnt misunderstand....
	11:50am Sem Chumbo: Thanks for the spins this morning, Liz. I'm thinking that, like cows, ovens produce good things in the presence of good sounds. Made some rye soda bread. With blue cheese, it's lunch. Later!
	11:50am Liz Berg: Good mood (which I pronounced "meeouud" for reasons I cannot explain).
	11:51am steve: i used to be all about the big Slurpies with those sour sugar coated candy straws
	11:51am bibi: argh.
	11:53am KP: Was in a comment dead zone out there. Just wanted to say hello. Hello, Liz.
	11:53am Stevel: I discovered Creem Magazine at the 7-11. Nothing was quite the same after that. Also got a cat, one night. I spent a LOT of time there, and a LOT of quarters on pinball.
	11:54am Stevel: BTW: This is a hell of a set. You're making it hard to sit still.
	11:54am drumsoverbogota: Nice riff of The Ones
	11:56am Jeremy N: You are putting mee in a geeouudd meeouud, deeoude! BTW, the Joel Selvin song was by The Fried Abortions. How on earth could you forget that name?
	11:56am ShortHairHippy: Thanks for a great show Liz
	11:57am bibi: thx anyway for this good mude mix, liz.
	11:57am KP: Same here.
	12:00pm davex: Thanks Liz, great start to the FMU week!
