	9:03am Trouble: 9:03 and i've already changed the background color
	9:06am OTB: Ah, Tuesday's beginning to seem much better. Morning, Trouble and all!
	9:06am glenn: damn. i missed the colour change.
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: You should change the color every to fit the mood!
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: every set that is...
	9:07am Trouble: glenn you have to get up pretty early to catch my playlist color mistakes
	9:08am Trouble: webmaster henry, feel free to do that from the comfort of your home, while i scramble to find music to play next
	9:08am Sem Chumbo: Ya gotta give Hinduism full marks for engrossing religious art. Morning, Trouble, and the variously troubled and somewhat troubled.
	9:09am glenn: i'm usually up before 6:00 a.m.
	9:16am Polyus: A quick search tells me that scroll is displayed at the Rubin Museum in NYC. Now I have a new place I have to go next time I make it out there.
	9:18am Trouble: the rubin is a pretty amazing place. it is in the old barneys: great staircase! you will see crazy things there
	9:19am FernandoBelmondo: Hi Trouble, Saw Mac McCaughan playing here in Sao Paulo just last saturday. He played solo with just his guitar so I had no idea his new stuff sounded like this, with drum machines and keyboards. I liked the show and liked his new song too!
	9:19am d¢ pät: amazing painting. I'm guessing from Nepal?
	9:21am d¢ pät: except that's Buddhism.
	9:21am sphere: hello all
	9:22am Trouble: awesome fernando! soooo how do i say his last name: is it mccaun or does it have 3 syllables?
	9:22am glenn: mc coffin.
	9:23am FernandoBelmondo: I always give up after the second syllable.
	9:24am Trouble: really glen? it's not mc caw han?
	9:24am Trouble: good idea fernando, that's sort of how i approach portugese, with some giggling inserted for good measure
	9:25am Webhamster Henry: This droney set fits in with last weekend's event: basilicahudson.com
	9:26am d¢ pät: man, that painting is KILLER. The more you look... The Sackler Gallery here in DC has great Asian art, giant wooden statues like the blackish guys in this painting but this is really something.
	9:26am sphere: i love the Sackler. i fell in love with modern Japanese porcelain there.
	9:27am SeanG: just stepped out of my orgone box
	9:27am ausmanx: by the conventions of scottish pronunciation it should be three syllables, but folks choose to do funny things with their names sometimes...
	9:28am Priscilla: Drones
	9:32am coelacanth: 'morning Trouble; Modernaires. ...that painting is beautiful. ...infinite.
	9:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - clearly Buddhist I think: see the meditators in lotus position up top? Deities have a fearsome aspect from one side - when you're afraid to give up your ego, what have you - & a kind benevolent face once you've passed thru...The sword in Buddhism is pure clear honest thot that cuts thru illusion & ignoranance...
	9:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& bad spelling...
	9:34am bobdoesthings: good morning trouble, lovely art for today!
	9:35am JakeGould: Hello all.
	9:36am doctorjazz: Hi all, falling asleep, yawn...
	9:38am sphere: how was the orgone box, SeanG?
	9:38am JakeGould: @doctorjazz: What a lightweight you are! My trick was to fall asleep last night and about 7-8 hours later I woke up and here I am. Pro-tip!
	9:40am βrian: What is that crying-baby bird?
	9:40am pierre: Bonjour Trouble and Troublinistas
	9:41am Webhamster Henry: @RRN63 et al: rubinmuseum.org...
	9:42am SeanG: feeling good Sphere, got energy flowing in the right directions
	9:43am βrian: That artwork belongs above the crib in every baby's room.
	9:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers. wiki wrath: en.wikipedia.org...
	9:45am βrian: Jeeves, please hand me my wrathful trousers.
	9:47am doctorjazz: @JakeGould: I knew I forgot something! 7-8 hours, huh? Great idea, I'll try it one of these days!
	9:49am ausmanx: Wrathful Trousers would be an excellent title for a gay porn film, but John Gielgud has already written a gay porn film called Trouser Bar which is being made, apparently...
	9:50am sphere: good deal SeanG :)
	9:50am bobdoesthings: this song is called "mulatu's mood"
	9:50am ausmanx: sorry, SIR John Gielgud, knighted for his services to homosexual erotica
	9:51am Trouble: thanks bob, but on the strut release it's simply called mulatu
	9:55am bobdoesthings: @trouble - oh alrighty , all good either way
	9:55am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Good morning Troubleteers! Love the painting. Reminds me of a project I worked on, making Tibetan tangkas interactive online. Lots of buried stories within stories in them. Check it:anthro.amnh.org...
	10:00am Sem Chumbo: @RevRab: out and about since last comment. Sure, Buddhist meditator, but Ganesha and Kali both there as well. Tibetan Buddhism incorporates animist elements, and, well, Hinduism has been around for ~4,000 years, so good chance some influence there, as well. Might just be pastiche, you know?
	10:00am JakeGould: @ausmanx: Wrathful Trousers? Trouser Bar? What about a film about aging gay men alled, “Haband Buddies”… They become friends when pooling resources to get 3 for $19.99 trousers from Haband. Then sex happens.
	10:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and troubled artists.
	10:03am Sem Chumbo: @JakeGould: brilliant concept. Exotic Marigold Hotel franchise producers, you reading this?
	10:04am Priscilla: Very cool, ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ!
	10:05am sphere: Maybe Judi Dench could play the saleswoman.
	10:07am ausmanx: DAME Judi sells trousers to gay porn stars in SIR John's Trouser Bar... i think Sir John was fussy about his trousers, Jake.
	10:09am Sem Chumbo: hehehe, @ausmanx, you old Royalist, you.
	10:10am doctorjazz: You're absolutely right, @JakeGould, I will be sure to get my 8 hours of sleep before next time I get in Trouble...
	10:10am Greg Red: my 6 y.o. loves this Mia Doi Todd record in the morning, thanks to the Trouble tip.
	10:11am JakeGould: @SemChumbo: And all of that Haband money from sponsorship should assure moderate box office success but tons of streaming revenue.
	10:13am ausmanx: big bucks from the leather merchandising opportunities too. my mother is exactly like the queen, Sem, that's probably the reason. she even goes out with no money...
	10:14am JakeGould: Next up: BluBlocker porn. ThunderShirt porn? Chia Pet porn?
	10:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Running a tad late today. With first cup of tea, I poured in half & half that had gone sour. Blech. Second cup with fresh half & half was fine.
	10:18am Yair Yona: Hello everyone
	10:19am bobdoesthings: @ken from HP - did you know putting milk in tea kills the healthy catechins or some science-ee thing.. ? Something about the chemical makeup of milk .. stops tea from being antioxidanting.. ahh listen to me,... nevermind
	10:19am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, Trouble and all!
	10:22am Trouble: good morning greg, yair yona.
	10:23am Sem Chumbo: I think it best that @JakeGould, @ausmanx and @Sem Chumbo never meet for drinks and a spit-balling session. That way madness lies:-D
	10:24am Ken From Hyde Park: @bobdoesthings - Thanks for that info. Will research that at a convenient time.
	10:24am Lucky: Weird to be seeing the show live, but silent...
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @sem: si c'est vrie - Hindu & Animist substrata. Watts: 'Budhdism is Hinduism packaged for export.'
	10:25am ausmanx: that way genius lies, Sem. you know it. fill it up with milk, ken. we drink it cos we like the bloody taste.
	10:26am Greg from Bloomfield: It's the Cambodian Scott Williams Rockin' Birthday SPRINGTACULAR!!!
	10:26am sphere: RRN63: that is the best explanation of Buddhism i have ever heard. kudos on Watts.
	10:27am Sem Chumbo: What sphere said. Had not heard that AW quote. Thx, RRN63.
	10:30am bobdoesthings: this is gorgeous.. my ears are drooling
	10:33am JakeGould: @bobdoesthings: Yes! Validation for my “don’t put milk in my tea” philosophy.
	10:35am Sem Chumbo: Who needs drugs with music like this? Ahhhhh, let me re-phrases that....
	10:36am ausmanx: "Research carried out by a team from the Indian National Institute of Nutrition, and reported in the May 2005 journal "Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism," argues that adding milk to black tea does not change its antioxidant potential. These researchers conducted a controlled study on the antioxidant effects of milky or plain black tea on healthy adult male tea drinkers"
	10:36am Trouble: yesterday would have been sandy denny's birthday
	10:37am Priscilla: What a voice!
	10:39am chromaphone: Making a TROUBLE board game sculpture soon at work :)
	10:40am d¢ pät: So, that settles it: NEVER mix dairy things into tea, EVER.
	10:40am bobdoesthings: @ausmanx.. well... yeah.. but when I googled "milk not good in tea?" I found stuff that confirmed what I remembered hearing and so there... No need for me to consider otherwise.. also milk in tea is weird! so also.. there!
	10:41am sugarwolf: I don't like milk in tea.
	10:42am sugarwolf: which reminds me, I should buy some more tea bags for work!
	10:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - only Earl Grey needs milk & honey (Green Tea certainly doesn't) ...coffee however - cream no sugar...
	10:44am Trouble: i love milk in black tea and i will not change my ways. millions of brits can't be that wrong. green tea with milk is down right weird, i dont do that.
	10:45am Polyus: I'll take sugar with tea You take milk if you please
	10:45am d¢ pät: COFFEE.
	10:46am herb.nyc: oh, DENGUE FEVER! i saw "don't think i've forgotten" docu at film forum last night. vg historical piece. when will we learn, re: man's inhumanity to man. they mentioned tonight's monty hall show. (to bring it down a little, GUERRILLA GIRLS celebrate their 30th b'day soon. their war is more peaceful.)
	10:46am d¢ pät: "Baroque Jazz Trio" that about says it all. The Beatles should have been "Four Scoucers"
	10:49am brandon: choppin broccoli
	10:50am Trouble: thanks herb for that prompt!! www.guerrillagirls.com
	10:51am herb.nyc: as BLACK PARTY is mentioned, film forum will have a docu about them, in sept. plus there's the recent "days of rage" book - one of the radicals is interviewed and he says "our mistake was shooting at the police. we should have been shooting at their bosses".
	10:53am glenn: coffee. black as a republican's heart. no sugar.
	10:54am Adrian in London: Busy at work but listening and just popped in to say hello. So, hello!
	10:54am d¢ pät: I'm with @glenn.
	10:55am d¢ pät: funny, that's the way I like my beer too. Strong and black.
	10:56am Adrian in London: I went to a hip coffee place in Berlin recently where you are not allowed to have milk in your coffee. Strict policy. They used a thermometer to gauge the temperature of my green tea too.
	10:58am herb.nyc: cute, no milk in coffee is allowed! what next, no ketchup allowed for one's steak at peter luger's restaurant?
	10:58am glenn: that said, i do like a good latte macchiato. in a glass. very important, that.
	10:59am d¢ pät: ah, glenn...I'm disappointed...
	11:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - ha, see! A really good rich coffee black tho' - leaning towards espresso... - wait, I should drink less coffee...
	11:02am northguineahills: They right, milk in coffee should be verboten!
	11:03am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just remembered that I have a coupla Hindu finger puppets at home. fashiontribes.typepad.com...
	11:04am glenn: it's different. steaming milk and adding it to espresso makes a very yummy something.
	11:06am Greg from Bloomfield: It's a STAR DESTROYER, Trouble...
	11:07am glenn: you need herdy shepherd's book, trouble. www.penguin.co.uk...
	11:07am sugarwolf: It's the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival this weekend.
	11:07am Jeff: Lamb trigger warning at Trouble's Instagram!
	11:07am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Oh boy, I am guilty of thinking Robert Smith was attractive when I was younger. Totally over that, btw.
	11:08am coelacanth: ha! this is still going on?! ...milk is nasty. it's bad for your body and the industry is bad for the planet. Despite this,i only like coffee with cream in it. the fattier the better. - but i prefer very strong irish or scottish tea,usually.(with honey)
	11:09am JakeGould: @Adiran: No milk in coffee? Fine, but this sounds douchey, “They used a thermometer to gauge the temperature of my green tea too.”
	11:10am JakeGould: In NYC Jewish/Yiddish culture 100% nobody adds milk to tea ever. Not a kosher thing, but a cultural thing.
	11:11am coelacanth: putting green tea into too-hot water will make a bitter tea.
	11:11am listener james from westwood: Books! I just finished Emily St. John Mandel's luminous "Station Eleven," which I am following up, as a thematic match, with Rebecca Solnit's "A Paradise Born in Hell."
	11:11am Greg from Bloomfield: Re-reading "Our Band Could Be Your Life", but I just grabbed Jim Bouton's "Ball Four" from the lyberry last nite...
	11:11am βrian: I always thought there should be a no-milk line. Imagine how much more quickly it would move!
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: coelacanth: true all that.
	11:12am OTB: Reading "Life A User's Manual," which I got from the Jersey City Public Lie-Berry. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a book this much.
	11:12am Priscilla: Hey look at this: "Lahiri grew up in Kingston, Rhode Island, where her father...works as a librarian at the University of Rhode Island"
	11:12am sugarwolf: reading a book about the history of ghosts. There's a chapter about the Wesleys, and I want to read a book about them!
	11:12am sugarwolf: LAso reading Danubia
	11:12am arlenes: my 17-year-old son (who's in and out of therapy) turned me on to this. amazing.
	11:13am Parq: New reading, eh? Can I put in a plug for a friend? My long-time neighbor, Mary Norris, has a well-received memoir-slash-pop-grammar book out called "Between You and Me." I haven't read it yet, but I read the excerpt in the New Yorker (she is a lifetime staffer) and enjoyed it immensely. I plan to buy the book soon and have it high on my summer reading list.
	11:13am glenn: sheep. twitter.com...
	11:14am JakeGould: I’m reading the Richard Hell memoir, “I dreamt I Was a Very Clean Tramp” and Art Donovan’s bio, “Fatso: Football When Men Were Really Men.” So I am getting two sides of the male, dork experience since Richard Hell and Art Donovan are both dorks in their own ways.
	11:14am Jeff: Yeah, different teas have different recommended brew temperatures. Most (but not all) black teas should be brewed with water right off the boil; green teas often want slightly less-hot water.
	11:15am d¢ pät: Crap, I'm reading about 10 books at once. Just revisited I Will Destroy All Civilized Planets--great and weird comics. Fletcher Hanks was a drunken, abusive, asshole though.
	11:15am JakeGould: Green teas do need warm-to-hot water. I agree. But a thermometer to determine that? Nonsense.
	11:16am coelacanth: i'm reading "player piano". once i'd read all the Vonnegut books that were readily available for free,i wanted to start from his first and go in chronological order. about 1/2 through,it's so far disappointing. i don't think he'd hit his stride yet.
	11:16am crateslinger: Foragers, Farmers, and Fossil Fuels by Ian Morris Just finished Mohamed and Charlemagne by Henri Pirenne
	11:16am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @dc pat: that is a great book. Fletcher Hanks was really out there.
	11:16am βrian: @Parq: Hey, it worked! I just ordered the book.
	11:17am bobdoesthings: tea connosiours will tell you any temp over 175 will make green tea taste bitter
	11:17am coelacanth: yeah Jake i just pour it just before it boils.
	11:18am d¢ pät: I drink a lot of mint tea with honey in it.
	11:19am Greg Red: On the coffee front the Seinfeld series "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" where Patton Oswalt takes Jerry to a hipster LA café is pretty funny. He couldn't find sweetener and there was a hipster timer to count how long service took.
	11:19am Adrian in London: @Jennique I worked with someone who was a huge Cure fan and met Smith backstage at some festival. Smith was in full 'Robert Smith' regalia; big hair, slash of lipstick, baggy black clothes, and my colleague was so starstruck the only thing he could find to say was: "Are you Robert Smith?"!!
	11:19am SeanG: this is fresh
	11:20am Adrian in London: Ah, it was COLD milk in hot drinks the coffee place refused to serve, my mistake. barn.bigcartel.com... It was a pretty friendly place, mind; it just took coffee VERY seriously.
	11:22am Parq: βrian, you gonna love it. And now I can get Brownie points with my neighbor by telling her I sold a copy. <winks>
	11:22am herb.nyc: re "our band could be your wife", in the best show boxset, j.wurster had a band for m.azerrad, a band that shoulda been included.
	11:24am coelacanth: i appreciate a cafe taking their business seriously. i'd like to be able to depend on what i'm paying for being good.
	11:24am Trouble: sugarwolf i went to connecticut sheep and wool last weekend since i am taking dj icepack to the airport this weekend to fly to mexico city with his class!
	11:25am Polyus: Co-worker incompetence is a leading factor in me not getting to listen to WFMU.
	11:26am sugarwolf: have fun in mexico, DJ Icepack!
	11:26am sugarwolf: I am not going to MDS&W because RECORD FAIR
	11:26am glenn: also, trouble, a good summer road trip for you. - www.kingstonsheepdogtrials.com
	11:27am listener james from westwood: @Polyus, I got outvoted years ago on listening to FMU in my workplace. From then on it was local Top 40 radio and the same fucking Ace of Base tune 6 times in 8 hours. Headphones at subsequent workplaces, and freelancing from home now, have kept me out of jail.
	11:28am Trouble: o man glenn i would love that!!!
	11:29am βrian: I wouldn't last 10 minutes having to listen to the music co-workers might choose. Never ever.
	11:31am glenn: it's a lot of fun. i've been.
	11:31am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Adrian - haha! I would have been in the same state, I think. Did lots of lonely girl drawings of him. I am sure if I met him he would have rolled his eyes and walked away.
	11:33am Polyus: @james - earbuds here as well. The problem today is that having to put out other peoples' brush fires is causing me to miss the tunes.
	11:33am northguineahills: Just heard the first ice cream truck of the spring, shouldn't they wait until the kids are out of school?
	11:37am βrian: @NGH: those are evil. Psycho-clown music over a P.A. system. Yeesh!
	11:39am glenn: trees lounge. best movie about creepy ice cream truck guy ever.
	11:41am Greg from Bloomfield: @glenn: But only because Assault On Precinct 13 only briefly showcased a creepy ice cream truck guy...
	11:42am northguineahills: There's an apartment complex next to me w/ a lot of children. In the summer, it will park there for 30 minutes at a time in the evenings driving everyone else on the block insane.
	11:44am βrian: Have you offered them bricks?
	11:45am d¢ pät: Well it wouldn't drive you so crazy if you just buy some DAMN ICE CREAM!
	11:46am bobdoesthings: oh man the record fair is next weeekend!??! snuck up on me
	11:47am d¢ pät: This Saturday is Derby Day.
	11:49am glenn: which horse, dc pat?
	11:53am d¢ pät: y'know @glenn, I haven't even looked at them yet. We draw from a hat anyways. I haven't won in years...
	11:53am Trouble: thanks for listening kittens! see you at the record fair and/or next week!
	11:54am glenn: www.kentuckyderby.com...
	11:55am bobdoesthings: thanks trouble!!! see ya at record fair
	11:56am Sem Chumbo: Been very much fun, Trouble. Still reading the John Adams biography. Prescient,was the 2nd President and his wife, about what happens when you mix politics and too much money:/
	11:56am d¢ pät: yeah, unless I see odds, none of it makes sense to me. I'm just there for the juleps anyway. I've inherited the responsibility of making them.
	11:56am Mister Dobalina: Awesome song!
	11:56am frenchee: I love this Courtney B.!
	11:57am glenn: courtney rules.
	11:57am d¢ pät: this is great!
	11:59am JakeGould: I wish all the horses in the fancy horse race luck and love. They are all winners even the ones that don’t pay out!
	11:59am listener james from westwood: Agreed. She has the "I'm Having Trouble Breathing" cut, too, yes?
	12:01pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Trouble!

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from April 28, 2015

View Trouble's profile

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Listener comments!
	9:02am Trouble: good morning o tuesday ones
	9:03am Polyus: Well that is quite a sight first thing in the morning. Beautiful!
	9:03am duke: Good Morning Trouble and troubled fans
	9:03am Trouble: 9:03 and i've already changed the background color
	9:06am OTB: Ah, Tuesday's beginning to seem much better. Morning, Trouble and all!
	9:06am glenn: damn. i missed the colour change.
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: You should change the color every to fit the mood!
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: every set that is...
	9:07am Trouble: glenn you have to get up pretty early to catch my playlist color mistakes
	9:08am Trouble: webmaster henry, feel free to do that from the comfort of your home, while i scramble to find music to play next
	9:08am Sem Chumbo: Ya gotta give Hinduism full marks for engrossing religious art. Morning, Trouble, and the variously troubled and somewhat troubled.
	9:09am glenn: i'm usually up before 6:00 a.m.
	9:16am Polyus: A quick search tells me that scroll is displayed at the Rubin Museum in NYC. Now I have a new place I have to go next time I make it out there.
	9:18am Trouble: the rubin is a pretty amazing place. it is in the old barneys: great staircase! you will see crazy things there
	9:19am FernandoBelmondo: Hi Trouble, Saw Mac McCaughan playing here in Sao Paulo just last saturday. He played solo with just his guitar so I had no idea his new stuff sounded like this, with drum machines and keyboards. I liked the show and liked his new song too!
	9:19am d¢ pät: amazing painting. I'm guessing from Nepal?
	9:21am d¢ pät: except that's Buddhism.
	9:21am sphere: hello all
	9:22am Trouble: awesome fernando! soooo how do i say his last name: is it mccaun or does it have 3 syllables?
	9:22am glenn: mc coffin.
	9:23am FernandoBelmondo: I always give up after the second syllable.
	9:24am Trouble: really glen? it's not mc caw han?
	9:24am Trouble: good idea fernando, that's sort of how i approach portugese, with some giggling inserted for good measure
	9:25am Webhamster Henry: This droney set fits in with last weekend's event: basilicahudson.com
	9:26am d¢ pät: man, that painting is KILLER. The more you look... The Sackler Gallery here in DC has great Asian art, giant wooden statues like the blackish guys in this painting but this is really something.
	9:26am sphere: i love the Sackler. i fell in love with modern Japanese porcelain there.
	9:27am SeanG: just stepped out of my orgone box
	9:27am ausmanx: by the conventions of scottish pronunciation it should be three syllables, but folks choose to do funny things with their names sometimes...
	9:28am Priscilla: Drones
	9:32am coelacanth: 'morning Trouble; Modernaires. ...that painting is beautiful. ...infinite.
	9:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - clearly Buddhist I think: see the meditators in lotus position up top? Deities have a fearsome aspect from one side - when you're afraid to give up your ego, what have you - & a kind benevolent face once you've passed thru...The sword in Buddhism is pure clear honest thot that cuts thru illusion & ignoranance...
	9:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& bad spelling...
	9:34am bobdoesthings: good morning trouble, lovely art for today!
	9:35am JakeGould: Hello all.
	9:36am doctorjazz: Hi all, falling asleep, yawn...
	9:38am sphere: how was the orgone box, SeanG?
	9:38am JakeGould: @doctorjazz: What a lightweight you are! My trick was to fall asleep last night and about 7-8 hours later I woke up and here I am. Pro-tip!
	9:40am βrian: What is that crying-baby bird?
	9:40am pierre: Bonjour Trouble and Troublinistas
	9:41am Webhamster Henry: @RRN63 et al: rubinmuseum.org...
	9:42am SeanG: feeling good Sphere, got energy flowing in the right directions
	9:43am βrian: That artwork belongs above the crib in every baby's room.
	9:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cheers. wiki wrath: en.wikipedia.org...
	9:45am βrian: Jeeves, please hand me my wrathful trousers.
	9:47am doctorjazz: @JakeGould: I knew I forgot something! 7-8 hours, huh? Great idea, I'll try it one of these days!
	9:49am ausmanx: Wrathful Trousers would be an excellent title for a gay porn film, but John Gielgud has already written a gay porn film called Trouser Bar which is being made, apparently...
	9:50am sphere: good deal SeanG :)
	9:50am bobdoesthings: this song is called "mulatu's mood"
	9:50am ausmanx: sorry, SIR John Gielgud, knighted for his services to homosexual erotica
	9:51am Trouble: thanks bob, but on the strut release it's simply called mulatu
	9:55am bobdoesthings: @trouble - oh alrighty , all good either way
	9:55am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Good morning Troubleteers! Love the painting. Reminds me of a project I worked on, making Tibetan tangkas interactive online. Lots of buried stories within stories in them. Check it:anthro.amnh.org...
	10:00am Sem Chumbo: @RevRab: out and about since last comment. Sure, Buddhist meditator, but Ganesha and Kali both there as well. Tibetan Buddhism incorporates animist elements, and, well, Hinduism has been around for ~4,000 years, so good chance some influence there, as well. Might just be pastiche, you know?
	10:00am JakeGould: @ausmanx: Wrathful Trousers? Trouser Bar? What about a film about aging gay men alled, “Haband Buddies”… They become friends when pooling resources to get 3 for $19.99 trousers from Haband. Then sex happens.
	10:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and troubled artists.
	10:03am Sem Chumbo: @JakeGould: brilliant concept. Exotic Marigold Hotel franchise producers, you reading this?
	10:04am Priscilla: Very cool, ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ!
	10:05am sphere: Maybe Judi Dench could play the saleswoman.
	10:07am ausmanx: DAME Judi sells trousers to gay porn stars in SIR John's Trouser Bar... i think Sir John was fussy about his trousers, Jake.
	10:09am Sem Chumbo: hehehe, @ausmanx, you old Royalist, you.
	10:10am doctorjazz: You're absolutely right, @JakeGould, I will be sure to get my 8 hours of sleep before next time I get in Trouble...
	10:10am Greg Red: my 6 y.o. loves this Mia Doi Todd record in the morning, thanks to the Trouble tip.
	10:11am JakeGould: @SemChumbo: And all of that Haband money from sponsorship should assure moderate box office success but tons of streaming revenue.
	10:13am ausmanx: big bucks from the leather merchandising opportunities too. my mother is exactly like the queen, Sem, that's probably the reason. she even goes out with no money...
	10:14am JakeGould: Next up: BluBlocker porn. ThunderShirt porn? Chia Pet porn?
	10:16am Ken From Hyde Park: Running a tad late today. With first cup of tea, I poured in half & half that had gone sour. Blech. Second cup with fresh half & half was fine.
	10:18am Yair Yona: Hello everyone
	10:19am bobdoesthings: @ken from HP - did you know putting milk in tea kills the healthy catechins or some science-ee thing.. ? Something about the chemical makeup of milk .. stops tea from being antioxidanting.. ahh listen to me,... nevermind
	10:19am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, Trouble and all!
	10:22am Trouble: good morning greg, yair yona.
	10:23am Sem Chumbo: I think it best that @JakeGould, @ausmanx and @Sem Chumbo never meet for drinks and a spit-balling session. That way madness lies:-D
	10:24am Ken From Hyde Park: @bobdoesthings - Thanks for that info. Will research that at a convenient time.
	10:24am Lucky: Weird to be seeing the show live, but silent...
	10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @sem: si c'est vrie - Hindu & Animist substrata. Watts: 'Budhdism is Hinduism packaged for export.'
	10:25am ausmanx: that way genius lies, Sem. you know it. fill it up with milk, ken. we drink it cos we like the bloody taste.
	10:26am Greg from Bloomfield: It's the Cambodian Scott Williams Rockin' Birthday SPRINGTACULAR!!!
	10:26am sphere: RRN63: that is the best explanation of Buddhism i have ever heard. kudos on Watts.
	10:27am Sem Chumbo: What sphere said. Had not heard that AW quote. Thx, RRN63.
	10:30am bobdoesthings: this is gorgeous.. my ears are drooling
	10:33am JakeGould: @bobdoesthings: Yes! Validation for my “don’t put milk in my tea” philosophy.
	10:35am Sem Chumbo: Who needs drugs with music like this? Ahhhhh, let me re-phrases that....
	10:36am ausmanx: "Research carried out by a team from the Indian National Institute of Nutrition, and reported in the May 2005 journal "Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism," argues that adding milk to black tea does not change its antioxidant potential. These researchers conducted a controlled study on the antioxidant effects of milky or plain black tea on healthy adult male tea drinkers"
	10:36am Trouble: yesterday would have been sandy denny's birthday
	10:37am Priscilla: What a voice!
	10:39am chromaphone: Making a TROUBLE board game sculpture soon at work :)
	10:40am d¢ pät: So, that settles it: NEVER mix dairy things into tea, EVER.
	10:40am bobdoesthings: @ausmanx.. well... yeah.. but when I googled "milk not good in tea?" I found stuff that confirmed what I remembered hearing and so there... No need for me to consider otherwise.. also milk in tea is weird! so also.. there!
	10:41am sugarwolf: I don't like milk in tea.
	10:42am sugarwolf: which reminds me, I should buy some more tea bags for work!
	10:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - only Earl Grey needs milk & honey (Green Tea certainly doesn't) ...coffee however - cream no sugar...
	10:44am Trouble: i love milk in black tea and i will not change my ways. millions of brits can't be that wrong. green tea with milk is down right weird, i dont do that.
	10:45am Polyus: I'll take sugar with tea You take milk if you please
	10:45am d¢ pät: COFFEE.
	10:46am herb.nyc: oh, DENGUE FEVER! i saw "don't think i've forgotten" docu at film forum last night. vg historical piece. when will we learn, re: man's inhumanity to man. they mentioned tonight's monty hall show. (to bring it down a little, GUERRILLA GIRLS celebrate their 30th b'day soon. their war is more peaceful.)
	10:46am d¢ pät: "Baroque Jazz Trio" that about says it all. The Beatles should have been "Four Scoucers"
	10:49am brandon: choppin broccoli
	10:50am Trouble: thanks herb for that prompt!! www.guerrillagirls.com
	10:51am herb.nyc: as BLACK PARTY is mentioned, film forum will have a docu about them, in sept. plus there's the recent "days of rage" book - one of the radicals is interviewed and he says "our mistake was shooting at the police. we should have been shooting at their bosses".
	10:53am glenn: coffee. black as a republican's heart. no sugar.
	10:54am Adrian in London: Busy at work but listening and just popped in to say hello. So, hello!
	10:54am d¢ pät: I'm with @glenn.
	10:55am d¢ pät: funny, that's the way I like my beer too. Strong and black.
	10:56am Adrian in London: I went to a hip coffee place in Berlin recently where you are not allowed to have milk in your coffee. Strict policy. They used a thermometer to gauge the temperature of my green tea too.
	10:58am herb.nyc: cute, no milk in coffee is allowed! what next, no ketchup allowed for one's steak at peter luger's restaurant?
	10:58am glenn: that said, i do like a good latte macchiato. in a glass. very important, that.
	10:59am d¢ pät: ah, glenn...I'm disappointed...
	11:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - ha, see! A really good rich coffee black tho' - leaning towards espresso... - wait, I should drink less coffee...
	11:02am northguineahills: They right, milk in coffee should be verboten!
	11:03am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just remembered that I have a coupla Hindu finger puppets at home. fashiontribes.typepad.com...
	11:04am glenn: it's different. steaming milk and adding it to espresso makes a very yummy something.
	11:06am Greg from Bloomfield: It's a STAR DESTROYER, Trouble...
	11:07am glenn: you need herdy shepherd's book, trouble. www.penguin.co.uk...
	11:07am sugarwolf: It's the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival this weekend.
	11:07am Jeff: Lamb trigger warning at Trouble's Instagram!
	11:07am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Oh boy, I am guilty of thinking Robert Smith was attractive when I was younger. Totally over that, btw.
	11:08am coelacanth: ha! this is still going on?! ...milk is nasty. it's bad for your body and the industry is bad for the planet. Despite this,i only like coffee with cream in it. the fattier the better. - but i prefer very strong irish or scottish tea,usually.(with honey)
	11:09am JakeGould: @Adiran: No milk in coffee? Fine, but this sounds douchey, “They used a thermometer to gauge the temperature of my green tea too.”
	11:10am JakeGould: In NYC Jewish/Yiddish culture 100% nobody adds milk to tea ever. Not a kosher thing, but a cultural thing.
	11:11am coelacanth: putting green tea into too-hot water will make a bitter tea.
	11:11am listener james from westwood: Books! I just finished Emily St. John Mandel's luminous "Station Eleven," which I am following up, as a thematic match, with Rebecca Solnit's "A Paradise Born in Hell."
	11:11am Greg from Bloomfield: Re-reading "Our Band Could Be Your Life", but I just grabbed Jim Bouton's "Ball Four" from the lyberry last nite...
	11:11am βrian: I always thought there should be a no-milk line. Imagine how much more quickly it would move!
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: coelacanth: true all that.
	11:12am OTB: Reading "Life A User's Manual," which I got from the Jersey City Public Lie-Berry. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a book this much.
	11:12am Priscilla: Hey look at this: "Lahiri grew up in Kingston, Rhode Island, where her father...works as a librarian at the University of Rhode Island"
	11:12am sugarwolf: reading a book about the history of ghosts. There's a chapter about the Wesleys, and I want to read a book about them!
	11:12am sugarwolf: LAso reading Danubia
	11:12am arlenes: my 17-year-old son (who's in and out of therapy) turned me on to this. amazing.
	11:13am Parq: New reading, eh? Can I put in a plug for a friend? My long-time neighbor, Mary Norris, has a well-received memoir-slash-pop-grammar book out called "Between You and Me." I haven't read it yet, but I read the excerpt in the New Yorker (she is a lifetime staffer) and enjoyed it immensely. I plan to buy the book soon and have it high on my summer reading list.
	11:13am glenn: sheep. twitter.com...
	11:14am JakeGould: I’m reading the Richard Hell memoir, “I dreamt I Was a Very Clean Tramp” and Art Donovan’s bio, “Fatso: Football When Men Were Really Men.” So I am getting two sides of the male, dork experience since Richard Hell and Art Donovan are both dorks in their own ways.
	11:14am Jeff: Yeah, different teas have different recommended brew temperatures. Most (but not all) black teas should be brewed with water right off the boil; green teas often want slightly less-hot water.
	11:15am d¢ pät: Crap, I'm reading about 10 books at once. Just revisited I Will Destroy All Civilized Planets--great and weird comics. Fletcher Hanks was a drunken, abusive, asshole though.
	11:15am JakeGould: Green teas do need warm-to-hot water. I agree. But a thermometer to determine that? Nonsense.
	11:16am coelacanth: i'm reading "player piano". once i'd read all the Vonnegut books that were readily available for free,i wanted to start from his first and go in chronological order. about 1/2 through,it's so far disappointing. i don't think he'd hit his stride yet.
	11:16am crateslinger: Foragers, Farmers, and Fossil Fuels by Ian Morris Just finished Mohamed and Charlemagne by Henri Pirenne
	11:16am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @dc pat: that is a great book. Fletcher Hanks was really out there.
	11:16am βrian: @Parq: Hey, it worked! I just ordered the book.
	11:17am bobdoesthings: tea connosiours will tell you any temp over 175 will make green tea taste bitter
	11:17am coelacanth: yeah Jake i just pour it just before it boils.
	11:18am d¢ pät: I drink a lot of mint tea with honey in it.
	11:19am Greg Red: On the coffee front the Seinfeld series "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" where Patton Oswalt takes Jerry to a hipster LA café is pretty funny. He couldn't find sweetener and there was a hipster timer to count how long service took.
	11:19am Adrian in London: @Jennique I worked with someone who was a huge Cure fan and met Smith backstage at some festival. Smith was in full 'Robert Smith' regalia; big hair, slash of lipstick, baggy black clothes, and my colleague was so starstruck the only thing he could find to say was: "Are you Robert Smith?"!!
	11:19am SeanG: this is fresh
	11:20am Adrian in London: Ah, it was COLD milk in hot drinks the coffee place refused to serve, my mistake. barn.bigcartel.com... It was a pretty friendly place, mind; it just took coffee VERY seriously.
	11:22am Parq: βrian, you gonna love it. And now I can get Brownie points with my neighbor by telling her I sold a copy. <winks>
	11:22am herb.nyc: re "our band could be your wife", in the best show boxset, j.wurster had a band for m.azerrad, a band that shoulda been included.
	11:24am coelacanth: i appreciate a cafe taking their business seriously. i'd like to be able to depend on what i'm paying for being good.
	11:24am Trouble: sugarwolf i went to connecticut sheep and wool last weekend since i am taking dj icepack to the airport this weekend to fly to mexico city with his class!
	11:25am Polyus: Co-worker incompetence is a leading factor in me not getting to listen to WFMU.
	11:26am sugarwolf: have fun in mexico, DJ Icepack!
	11:26am sugarwolf: I am not going to MDS&W because RECORD FAIR
	11:26am glenn: also, trouble, a good summer road trip for you. - www.kingstonsheepdogtrials.com
	11:27am listener james from westwood: @Polyus, I got outvoted years ago on listening to FMU in my workplace. From then on it was local Top 40 radio and the same fucking Ace of Base tune 6 times in 8 hours. Headphones at subsequent workplaces, and freelancing from home now, have kept me out of jail.
	11:28am Trouble: o man glenn i would love that!!!
	11:29am βrian: I wouldn't last 10 minutes having to listen to the music co-workers might choose. Never ever.
	11:31am glenn: it's a lot of fun. i've been.
	11:31am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Adrian - haha! I would have been in the same state, I think. Did lots of lonely girl drawings of him. I am sure if I met him he would have rolled his eyes and walked away.
	11:33am Polyus: @james - earbuds here as well. The problem today is that having to put out other peoples' brush fires is causing me to miss the tunes.
	11:33am northguineahills: Just heard the first ice cream truck of the spring, shouldn't they wait until the kids are out of school?
	11:37am βrian: @NGH: those are evil. Psycho-clown music over a P.A. system. Yeesh!
	11:39am glenn: trees lounge. best movie about creepy ice cream truck guy ever.
	11:41am Greg from Bloomfield: @glenn: But only because Assault On Precinct 13 only briefly showcased a creepy ice cream truck guy...
	11:42am northguineahills: There's an apartment complex next to me w/ a lot of children. In the summer, it will park there for 30 minutes at a time in the evenings driving everyone else on the block insane.
	11:44am βrian: Have you offered them bricks?
	11:45am d¢ pät: Well it wouldn't drive you so crazy if you just buy some DAMN ICE CREAM!
	11:46am bobdoesthings: oh man the record fair is next weeekend!??! snuck up on me
	11:47am d¢ pät: This Saturday is Derby Day.
	11:49am glenn: which horse, dc pat?
	11:53am d¢ pät: y'know @glenn, I haven't even looked at them yet. We draw from a hat anyways. I haven't won in years...
	11:53am Trouble: thanks for listening kittens! see you at the record fair and/or next week!
	11:54am glenn: www.kentuckyderby.com...
	11:55am bobdoesthings: thanks trouble!!! see ya at record fair
	11:56am Sem Chumbo: Been very much fun, Trouble. Still reading the John Adams biography. Prescient,was the 2nd President and his wife, about what happens when you mix politics and too much money:/
	11:56am d¢ pät: yeah, unless I see odds, none of it makes sense to me. I'm just there for the juleps anyway. I've inherited the responsibility of making them.
	11:56am Mister Dobalina: Awesome song!
	11:56am frenchee: I love this Courtney B.!
	11:57am glenn: courtney rules.
	11:57am d¢ pät: this is great!
	11:59am JakeGould: I wish all the horses in the fancy horse race luck and love. They are all winners even the ones that don’t pay out!
	11:59am listener james from westwood: Agreed. She has the "I'm Having Trouble Breathing" cut, too, yes?
	12:01pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Trouble!
