	3:09pm zpulpa: The failure of the heart
	3:09pm Brendan: This Bowie almost makes up for the previous ba ba ba ba dap song.
	3:10pm Dave in Vermont: The failure of grieving
	3:10pm Crudbringer: Ah, the show that started my abiding WFMU addiction. "YOUUUUUUUUUUUU TOUCH ME" "Is that imperative or descriptive, Sir?"
	3:11pm Fabio: !@ steveo: No need to be sorry!! Was nice to meet you both!
	3:12pm SSS: The final failure
	3:12pm Stanley: I'm lifting off
	3:12pm tim from champaign: You can count on Fabio to play excellent Bowie songs.
	3:13pm Polyus: It's weird, Bowie's death didn't truly hit me until I was listening to Wild Is The Wind about 6 months after the fact. Something about that song. . .
	3:13pm zpulpa: sounds like an alternate intro to "little trouble girl"
	3:14pm TehBadDr: VD the harbinger to failure of love.
	3:14pm dale: failure of the saxamaphone
	3:15pm Stanley: The sound of someone making a balloon animal? Like it
	3:15pm Rich in Washington: I need this. I am chronically low on Skronk.
	3:16pm TehBadDr: When I used to play the sax, I never thought of doing things like this to it! Wish I had.
	3:16pm steveo: likewise; can you bring clay next time?
	👻 3:16pm Rev. Turnip Druid: "Balloon animals" are simple enough, but "animal balloons" are very different indeed.
	3:16pm tim from champaign: @Stanley - I saw Cooper-Moore perform a balloon solo once.
	👻 3:17pm Rev. Turnip Druid: For goodness sake don't pop that ocelot.
	3:18pm Rich in Washington: @Polyus: It hit me kind of hard, happening just days before my 50th, which can be a milestone, especially if you're as inclined to clinical levels of melancholy such as myself. Plus all the tributes, etc. I learned about it while listening/reading the WFMU comment board. Weird way to experiencing the passing of someone we all thought would never die for some reason (or maybe that's just me).
	3:19pm Travisano66: Holy shit.
	3:19pm Crudbringer: I can't dance to this. Wait. Maybe I _can_.
	3:19pm TehBadDr: Shouldn't somebody call the SPCBA?
	3:19pm The Oscar: @RTD Unless you deal exclusively in pufferfish and frigate birds.
	👻 3:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I refrigerate all birds. You should SEE the madness in the crisper.
	👻 3:21pm Rev. Turnip Druid: OH HELL, it's that bassline. head down, time dissolves for a bit...
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Way Kewl.
	3:21pm Michael 98145: yes
	3:22pm Crudbringer: yeah it turns out you _can_ dance to it you just need like extra dimensions
	3:22pm Brendan: Dang ! Funky....
	3:22pm gd0: I done been skronkified.
	👻 3:25pm chresti: There's the Inflatable Squirrel Carcass show on Fridays
	3:26pm Stanley: Pre-clicked!
	3:26pm Michael 98145: {btw, hold on for a national emergency, kids }
	3:29pm Brendan: The bass is undeviating. And formidable.
	3:29pm Chris from DC: Almost entirely preclickied show so far.
	3:30pm brainiac: It's been one damn thing after another for years now.
	3:32pm geezerette: Hallo, Fabio,brothers, sisters, :D Thanks for the champagne, I've brought invisible roses and chocolate!
	3:32pm Michael 98145: hello again, gz'ette!
	3:33pm geezerette: Hiya, Michael! :)
	3:34pm doncaballero: That Min Bul jam is transformative.
	3:35pm geezerette: ...seriously hoping there will be no fabricated emergency.
	3:35pm Michael 98145: well, at least we have this oasis
	3:37pm Michael 98145: { looks like we lost our .♥.s ... must be a marathon comin on }
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Nothing more romantic than a pink carpet! (Michael, geeze!!)
	3:37pm Michael 98145: hiya!
	3:37pm dale: have a bourbon and squirt
	3:37pm βrian: We're having shrimp for dinner, so yes, Champagne might be just the thing.
	3:39pm BO: Hi!
	3:41pm geezerette: Chresti ! :)
	3:43pm geezerette: ...Brian ! Dale ! Bo !
	3:45pm Ike: Meow
	3:48pm steveo: busting out some fine jams today, sir
	3:48pm coelacanth∅: hello Fabio and radiant failures
	3:50pm brainiac: When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay
	3:51pm coelacanth∅: βrian @3.37 it's not my business but that doesn't sound like a lot of food
	3:53pm βrian: Many, many shrimp ...
	3:55pm Rich in Washington: More skronk!
	👻 3:55pm Rev. Turnip Druid: FAY-ROE! [affecting the MD accent of th'ancestors]
	3:56pm coelacanth∅: ah. (i thought you were going to say "big shrimp") ... still, don't invite Mr.Giant Man.
	3:56pm tom from Glasgow: jumbo skronk
	3:59pm Stanley: Really wild, General
	3:59pm Rich in Washington: I thought I heard Sonny in there. The only person capable of delivering high levels of skronkage on guitar.
	3:59pm solo organ: Thank you. This song just brought life to my rainy afternoon.
	4:00pm coelacanth∅: the Jumbo stylings of Pharoah's skronk
	4:00pm doctorjazz: Sonny Sharrock, guitar, Sanders, man. ...
	4:01pm doctorjazz: (and dig Howard Johnson on tuba .. Always love tuba as bass. .)
	4:02pm doctorjazz: He's purring
	4:02pm coelacanth∅: my cheeks hurt thinking about it
	4:03pm tim from champaign: @doctorjazz - thanks! I wondered what that rumbling was.
	4:03pm coelacanth∅: it's so good it's making me laugh!
	4:03pm steveo: someone better call the fire department
	4:05pm tim from champaign: This has been a gaping hole in the Pharoah Sanders section of my records for far too long.
	👻 4:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Valentine Failures!
	4:06pm geezerette: thoroughly skronked!
	4:07pm Brendan: You are playing some violent sax today, Fabio. It really cuts through and commands one's attention. Nice to hear
	4:07pm steveo: Songwriter(s): Neil Diamond
	4:07pm doctorjazz: The original of that Sanders starts at $150 on Discogs (but there are reissues and cd's at reasonable prices)
	4:08pm Rich in Washington: Aw. I love this song.
	4:08pm geezerette: Doc ! Coel ! Steveo ! Ken FHP ! :)
	4:08pm steveo: geez!!!!
	4:09pm doctorjazz: Hey Geez, happy V day!
	4:10pm geezerette: Rich ! You too, Doc! :D
	4:11pm Brendan: Failure to Buy Flowers at and Unreasonable Price . I'll make up for it by cooking something amazingly bad tonight, babe.
	👻 4:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, how's the failure today, geez?
	4:13pm steveo: it's cool, Brendan, as long as we're together
	4:14pm coelacanth∅: hey g!
	4:16pm coelacanth∅: the failure of VD
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: God. Possession is so amazing!
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: Would make a great double bill with Cronenberg's The Brood.
	4:19pm tim from champaign: Man, does anyone else think that the other Crash is completely bogus?
	4:20pm tim from champaign: I agree with Fabio that Punch Drunk Love and Phantom Thread are excellent.
	👻 4:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Super agree, re: Harold & Maude.
	4:21pm The Oscar: Saw Harold & Maude a couple years ago at Mount Auburn Cemetery, in a double feature with The Seventh Seal. Such an awesome night.
	4:21pm steveo: The Monkees' I'm a Believer is "one of the fewer than forty all-time singles to have sold more than 10 million physical copies worldwide" Also the Wyatt version "features Fred Frith on violin, Andy Summers (later of the Police) on guitar, and drums by Nick Mason of Pink Floyd, who also produced the recording. It was Wyatt's first recording after the June 1973 accident that left him a paraplegic" Thus ends today's reading from Wikipedia.
	4:22pm coelacanth∅: i never saw either crash but when it came out it caused some controversy and i wanted to see it. just didn't.
	4:22pm Ike: Since the dopey ol' Oscars are coming up, and Fabio just mentioned the good "Crash", let's debate: Is the other "Crash" (2005) the worst movie ever to win Best Picture? Or is just ONE OF the worst movies to ever win Best Picture? (Oh man, I just typed this before noticing Tim's comment, but I'll go ahead anyway.)
	4:24pm northguineahills: My vocals are frying!
	4:24pm crateslinger: The 2005 Crash was so stupid. I watched it on the recommend of somebody whose opinion I used to respect. I had no idea it won an Oscar.
	4:25pm coelacanth∅: i don't know what has won best picture and what hasn't but i'll guess that many of the winners would pretty much suck in my opinion.
	4:25pm The Oscar: @Ike There's a real chance that Green Book will win in a couple weeks. That, Crash, and Driving Miss Daisy would make a hell of a trilogy of out-of-touch Best Picture winners.
	4:26pm Brendan: I like to think of the romance in Harold and Maude as romantic. It helps me sleep better than entertaining the alternative ... Say... whilst I have my head in the gutter, any good porn recommends for Valentine’s Day? Nothing with Ron Jeremy’s hairy backside ruining it either...
	4:26pm geezerette: The Oscar, ha ha haaaa....:D
	4:27pm crateslinger: I've spent the last twenty years going to see movies with my kids. Pretty soon I'll be going alone to my own movies again finally. My wife doesn't like movies where "nothing happens" she says.
	4:27pm Brendan: H& M platonic I meant to say
	4:28pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi everyone. I took a look through the comments board and want to add a comment on two things: @steveo I'm shocked Fabio doesn't have a personal shopper like other celebrities; @michael I can't believe we are now heart-less on Valentines Day. A cruel time to prep for a marathon.
	4:28pm crateslinger: My daughter likes my boring movies now that she's 25 so I guess I'll start going with her again.
	4:28pm Phillippe Bastille: I'll go back to work now.
	4:29pm crateslinger: @PB - me too. Back to work. Got the music blasting tho. Nobody's coming back here now!!
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: in dec i went to a movie theatre for the first time in over 10 years (maybe 20?) because it was sort of part of an x-mas party. spiderman. surprisingly i enjoyed myself.
	4:33pm steveo: @phillipe it is pretty amazing he's just walking around, a legend among us
	4:33pm steveo: p*
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: make no mistake -Fabio's bodyguards are incognito but they're there, ready to pounce if the fans get too rough.
	4:35pm Ike: @coelacanth∅: The animated one? I've heard that's actually surprisingly good. They hired real, actual writers and spent years on it. It may win Best Animated Thingy.
	4:36pm TDK60: Signed in.
	4:36pm nic: this one!!!
	4:36pm Dean: Band name brings to mind this greeting card: https://www.nobleworkscards.com/3605-slept-with-a-brazilian-funny-birthday-greeting-card-hotson-kirsty.html
	4:41pm Dave Miss: Listening streaming in-flight.....the best!
	4:43pm TDK60: My brother and I watched the first half of Lawrence of Arabia last night; second half tonight. What a huge production. I suppose its cinematography is the best feature; some of the acting too.
	4:43pm katharsis: Hello rainy hearts
	👻 4:45pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @TDK60: A great time, that one. Seeing O'Toole & Sharif together again in The Rainbow Thief was a blast. Not Jodorowsky's finest flower, but still...It has its moments..
	4:45pm Brendan: Best Beatles cover. Ever.
	4:46pm northguineahills: Boeing is my jam, apparently
	4:46pm Johnzon: sheesh can you play something less mainstream gosh Fab
	4:47pm crateslinger: I read LoA's official biography recently. Recently published. Great Read. That guy was amazing: www.amazon.com...
	👻 4:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: very digging.
	4:59pm Brendan: It was cool in the film when Lawrence came back from taking Aqaba and trudged into the officer’s club wearing tunic and the fat cats had to give him his due. Bloody marvelous , well done.
	5:00pm Michael 98145: I really want to see Lawrence of Arabia just once more in a real theater
	👻 5:02pm chresti: I would love to see Lawrence of Arabia on a big screen @TDK
	👻 5:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The AFI 'round here had shown a cleaned-up 70mm print of Lawrence a while back. It's quite an eyeful.
	5:02pm TDK60: ..the music is great too, mostly lush orchestral by Maurice Jarre and also some electronic parts.
	5:03pm katharsis: While I have been away, as in another physical location, Wfmu stays in the same place yet is also everywhere.
	5:04pm Brendan: Fabio you are constructing a masterpiece. This is future me’s testimonial having listened to this archive gem for the 7676432468th time. It just gets better.
	5:04pm Carmichael: Heya Fabio and V Day folks. The spousal unit is sick, and I am on jury duty. Nothing says love like a last-minute plea bargain.
	👻 5:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Could you imagine being on trial and all the jurors are WFMU listeners? Crazy, huh?
	5:07pm Carmichael: I assure you, I am the only one.
	5:07pm northguineahills: I have never celebrated V-tines day w/my wife or ex-gfs (except my wife on year wanted to go to White Castle, and she's vegan).
	5:08pm northguineahills: oh, and Aki Onda is a brilliant artist and great human being!
	5:09pm Brendan: Although future Clay Pigeon informs me that it won’t negatively alter the future if you add an Argent song in the mix. I said no though.
	5:09pm Carmichael: I did get to see Mark Wahlberg make the Philadelphia Eagles in some dumb movie, though.
	5:09pm TDK60: ..nice to stop in Fabio. Gotta leave the building though.
	👻 5:11pm Bas NL: Shoot, I'm late. But the more here now. Hi Fabio!
	👻 5:15pm chresti: Very much enjoying the show Fabio! I am making some noodle dish...
	5:15pm Carmichael: Hey, lovin’ the blip bloop of this! Someone clicky star for me.
	5:19pm northguineahills: @Carmichael: click @chresti: making Japanese curry and rice (w/ veggies).
	5:21pm common: Fabio, all. Nice sounds to come home to.
	5:21pm geezerette: Love this!
	5:23pm zpulpa: ahhh this is so beautiful! moving my heart
	5:24pm Ike: WFMU: Where you must occasionally ask, "Is this beautiful track supposed to skip like that, or is it out of phase?" (The previous one, not this one.)
	5:25pm nic: love this!!!
	5:38pm Michael 98145: romantic robot dialogs
	5:40pm Phillippe Bastille: @Charmichael They were shooting the opening scenes of Wonder Woman II (1984) around here and I tried to wangle my way on set, but it was a closed set (my son has a small part in it, but its a speaking role so likely residuals yeah -- he'll be the wedding photographer at the beginning of the movie).
	5:44pm coelacanth∅: Ike @4.35 yes the animated one; and if i'd known it was animated before going i probably would've declined. so, i was unhappy when the movie started but it turned out to be done well. (ie where it was unbelievable & unrealistic it wasn't pretending to be realistic or believable)
	5:47pm Brendan: Fantastic tune, set, show. (Game set match). Nicely done Fabio. And many thanks.
	5:50pm Carmichael: My cousin had a VERY minor role in The Green Mile. I think his credit was Man in Chair.
	5:53pm tim from champaign: I think electronically treated trumpet is my next favorite sound after mangled guitar.
	5:55pm katharsis: Many thanks.
	5:55pm Phillippe Bastille: @ Charmichael Yeah, my son will likely be Wedding Photographer. He said the director Patty Jenkins is an amazingly nice person who spent time chatting with everyone in the scene for an extended period. He spent time in LA, but has gotten more parts back here in the Baltimore/DC area. Discovery Channel and their offshoots are here in the area and he's had several uncredited little parts in the renactment shows
	5:55pm northguineahills: bon merci, Fabio!
	5:56pm Carmichael: Smith!
	5:56pm Phillippe Bastille: Thank you for a fun time Fabio
	👻 5:56pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm brainiac: For sexy times, try Strength Through Failure
	👻 5:56pm chresti: Thanks Fabio-fantastico!
	5:57pm dale: the smiths!
	5:57pm coelacanth∅: baby it's you: the failure of failure.
	👻 5:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. I guess X.Ray's wake is underway, RIP.
	5:58pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Fabio { emergency - emergency - everyone to get from street }
	5:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio
	5:59pm Bunny264: Fabs!
	6:00pm Rich in Washington: Googled Enjoyment Machine while here at work. Yikes!
	6:01pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Fabio! Great show!

	3:32pm geezerette: Hallo, Fabio,brothers, sisters, :D Thanks for the champagne, I've brought invisible roses and chocolate!
	3:32pm Michael 98145: hello again, gz'ette!
	3:33pm geezerette: Hiya, Michael! :)
	3:34pm doncaballero: That Min Bul jam is transformative.
	3:35pm geezerette: ...seriously hoping there will be no fabricated emergency.
	3:35pm Michael 98145: well, at least we have this oasis
	3:37pm Michael 98145: { looks like we lost our .♥.s ... must be a marathon comin on }
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Nothing more romantic than a pink carpet! (Michael, geeze!!)
	3:37pm Michael 98145: hiya!
	3:37pm dale: have a bourbon and squirt
	3:37pm βrian: We're having shrimp for dinner, so yes, Champagne might be just the thing.
	3:39pm BO: Hi!
	3:41pm geezerette: Chresti ! :)
	3:43pm geezerette: ...Brian ! Dale ! Bo !
	3:45pm Ike: Meow
	3:48pm steveo: busting out some fine jams today, sir
	3:48pm coelacanth∅: hello Fabio and radiant failures
	3:50pm brainiac: When the levee breaks I'll have no place to stay
	3:51pm coelacanth∅: βrian @3.37 it's not my business but that doesn't sound like a lot of food
	3:53pm βrian: Many, many shrimp ...
	3:55pm Rich in Washington: More skronk!
	👻 3:55pm Rev. Turnip Druid: FAY-ROE! [affecting the MD accent of th'ancestors]
	3:56pm coelacanth∅: ah. (i thought you were going to say "big shrimp") ... still, don't invite Mr.Giant Man.
	3:56pm tom from Glasgow: jumbo skronk
	3:59pm Stanley: Really wild, General
	3:59pm Rich in Washington: I thought I heard Sonny in there. The only person capable of delivering high levels of skronkage on guitar.
	3:59pm solo organ: Thank you. This song just brought life to my rainy afternoon.
	4:00pm coelacanth∅: the Jumbo stylings of Pharoah's skronk
	4:00pm doctorjazz: Sonny Sharrock, guitar, Sanders, man. ...
	4:01pm doctorjazz: (and dig Howard Johnson on tuba .. Always love tuba as bass. .)
	4:02pm doctorjazz: He's purring
	4:02pm coelacanth∅: my cheeks hurt thinking about it
	4:03pm tim from champaign: @doctorjazz - thanks! I wondered what that rumbling was.
	4:03pm coelacanth∅: it's so good it's making me laugh!
	4:03pm steveo: someone better call the fire department
	4:05pm tim from champaign: This has been a gaping hole in the Pharoah Sanders section of my records for far too long.
	👻 4:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Valentine Failures!
	4:06pm geezerette: thoroughly skronked!
	4:07pm Brendan: You are playing some violent sax today, Fabio. It really cuts through and commands one's attention. Nice to hear
	4:07pm steveo: Songwriter(s): Neil Diamond
	4:07pm doctorjazz: The original of that Sanders starts at $150 on Discogs (but there are reissues and cd's at reasonable prices)
	4:08pm Rich in Washington: Aw. I love this song.
	4:08pm geezerette: Doc ! Coel ! Steveo ! Ken FHP ! :)
	4:08pm steveo: geez!!!!
	4:09pm doctorjazz: Hey Geez, happy V day!
	4:10pm geezerette: Rich ! You too, Doc! :D
	4:11pm Brendan: Failure to Buy Flowers at and Unreasonable Price . I'll make up for it by cooking something amazingly bad tonight, babe.
	👻 4:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, how's the failure today, geez?
	4:13pm steveo: it's cool, Brendan, as long as we're together
	4:14pm coelacanth∅: hey g!
	4:16pm coelacanth∅: the failure of VD
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: God. Possession is so amazing!
	4:17pm Rich in Washington: Would make a great double bill with Cronenberg's The Brood.
	4:19pm tim from champaign: Man, does anyone else think that the other Crash is completely bogus?
	4:20pm tim from champaign: I agree with Fabio that Punch Drunk Love and Phantom Thread are excellent.
	👻 4:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Super agree, re: Harold & Maude.
	4:21pm The Oscar: Saw Harold & Maude a couple years ago at Mount Auburn Cemetery, in a double feature with The Seventh Seal. Such an awesome night.
	4:21pm steveo: The Monkees' I'm a Believer is "one of the fewer than forty all-time singles to have sold more than 10 million physical copies worldwide" Also the Wyatt version "features Fred Frith on violin, Andy Summers (later of the Police) on guitar, and drums by Nick Mason of Pink Floyd, who also produced the recording. It was Wyatt's first recording after the June 1973 accident that left him a paraplegic" Thus ends today's reading from Wikipedia.
	4:22pm coelacanth∅: i never saw either crash but when it came out it caused some controversy and i wanted to see it. just didn't.
	4:22pm Ike: Since the dopey ol' Oscars are coming up, and Fabio just mentioned the good "Crash", let's debate: Is the other "Crash" (2005) the worst movie ever to win Best Picture? Or is just ONE OF the worst movies to ever win Best Picture? (Oh man, I just typed this before noticing Tim's comment, but I'll go ahead anyway.)
	4:24pm northguineahills: My vocals are frying!
	4:24pm crateslinger: The 2005 Crash was so stupid. I watched it on the recommend of somebody whose opinion I used to respect. I had no idea it won an Oscar.
	4:25pm coelacanth∅: i don't know what has won best picture and what hasn't but i'll guess that many of the winners would pretty much suck in my opinion.
	4:25pm The Oscar: @Ike There's a real chance that Green Book will win in a couple weeks. That, Crash, and Driving Miss Daisy would make a hell of a trilogy of out-of-touch Best Picture winners.
	4:26pm Brendan: I like to think of the romance in Harold and Maude as romantic. It helps me sleep better than entertaining the alternative ... Say... whilst I have my head in the gutter, any good porn recommends for Valentine’s Day? Nothing with Ron Jeremy’s hairy backside ruining it either...
	4:26pm geezerette: The Oscar, ha ha haaaa....:D
	4:27pm crateslinger: I've spent the last twenty years going to see movies with my kids. Pretty soon I'll be going alone to my own movies again finally. My wife doesn't like movies where "nothing happens" she says.
	4:27pm Brendan: H& M platonic I meant to say
	4:28pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi everyone. I took a look through the comments board and want to add a comment on two things: @steveo I'm shocked Fabio doesn't have a personal shopper like other celebrities; @michael I can't believe we are now heart-less on Valentines Day. A cruel time to prep for a marathon.
	4:28pm crateslinger: My daughter likes my boring movies now that she's 25 so I guess I'll start going with her again.
	4:28pm Phillippe Bastille: I'll go back to work now.
	4:29pm crateslinger: @PB - me too. Back to work. Got the music blasting tho. Nobody's coming back here now!!
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: in dec i went to a movie theatre for the first time in over 10 years (maybe 20?) because it was sort of part of an x-mas party. spiderman. surprisingly i enjoyed myself.
	4:33pm steveo: @phillipe it is pretty amazing he's just walking around, a legend among us
	4:33pm steveo: p*
	4:35pm coelacanth∅: make no mistake -Fabio's bodyguards are incognito but they're there, ready to pounce if the fans get too rough.
	4:35pm Ike: @coelacanth∅: The animated one? I've heard that's actually surprisingly good. They hired real, actual writers and spent years on it. It may win Best Animated Thingy.
	4:36pm TDK60: Signed in.
	4:36pm nic: this one!!!
	4:36pm Dean: Band name brings to mind this greeting card: https://www.nobleworkscards.com/3605-slept-with-a-brazilian-funny-birthday-greeting-card-hotson-kirsty.html
	4:41pm Dave Miss: Listening streaming in-flight.....the best!
	4:43pm TDK60: My brother and I watched the first half of Lawrence of Arabia last night; second half tonight. What a huge production. I suppose its cinematography is the best feature; some of the acting too.
	4:43pm katharsis: Hello rainy hearts
	👻 4:45pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @TDK60: A great time, that one. Seeing O'Toole & Sharif together again in The Rainbow Thief was a blast. Not Jodorowsky's finest flower, but still...It has its moments..
	4:45pm Brendan: Best Beatles cover. Ever.
	4:46pm northguineahills: Boeing is my jam, apparently
	4:46pm Johnzon: sheesh can you play something less mainstream gosh Fab
	4:47pm crateslinger: I read LoA's official biography recently. Recently published. Great Read. That guy was amazing: www.amazon.com...
	👻 4:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: very digging.
	4:59pm Brendan: It was cool in the film when Lawrence came back from taking Aqaba and trudged into the officer’s club wearing tunic and the fat cats had to give him his due. Bloody marvelous , well done.
	5:00pm Michael 98145: I really want to see Lawrence of Arabia just once more in a real theater
	👻 5:02pm chresti: I would love to see Lawrence of Arabia on a big screen @TDK
	👻 5:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The AFI 'round here had shown a cleaned-up 70mm print of Lawrence a while back. It's quite an eyeful.
	5:02pm TDK60: ..the music is great too, mostly lush orchestral by Maurice Jarre and also some electronic parts.
	5:03pm katharsis: While I have been away, as in another physical location, Wfmu stays in the same place yet is also everywhere.
	5:04pm Brendan: Fabio you are constructing a masterpiece. This is future me’s testimonial having listened to this archive gem for the 7676432468th time. It just gets better.
	5:04pm Carmichael: Heya Fabio and V Day folks. The spousal unit is sick, and I am on jury duty. Nothing says love like a last-minute plea bargain.
	👻 5:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Could you imagine being on trial and all the jurors are WFMU listeners? Crazy, huh?
	5:07pm Carmichael: I assure you, I am the only one.
	5:07pm northguineahills: I have never celebrated V-tines day w/my wife or ex-gfs (except my wife on year wanted to go to White Castle, and she's vegan).
	5:08pm northguineahills: oh, and Aki Onda is a brilliant artist and great human being!
	5:09pm Brendan: Although future Clay Pigeon informs me that it won’t negatively alter the future if you add an Argent song in the mix. I said no though.
	5:09pm Carmichael: I did get to see Mark Wahlberg make the Philadelphia Eagles in some dumb movie, though.
	5:09pm TDK60: ..nice to stop in Fabio. Gotta leave the building though.
	👻 5:11pm Bas NL: Shoot, I'm late. But the more here now. Hi Fabio!
	👻 5:15pm chresti: Very much enjoying the show Fabio! I am making some noodle dish...
	5:15pm Carmichael: Hey, lovin’ the blip bloop of this! Someone clicky star for me.
	5:19pm northguineahills: @Carmichael: click @chresti: making Japanese curry and rice (w/ veggies).
	5:21pm common: Fabio, all. Nice sounds to come home to.
	5:21pm geezerette: Love this!
	5:23pm zpulpa: ahhh this is so beautiful! moving my heart
	5:24pm Ike: WFMU: Where you must occasionally ask, "Is this beautiful track supposed to skip like that, or is it out of phase?" (The previous one, not this one.)
	5:25pm nic: love this!!!
	5:38pm Michael 98145: romantic robot dialogs
	5:40pm Phillippe Bastille: @Charmichael They were shooting the opening scenes of Wonder Woman II (1984) around here and I tried to wangle my way on set, but it was a closed set (my son has a small part in it, but its a speaking role so likely residuals yeah -- he'll be the wedding photographer at the beginning of the movie).
	5:44pm coelacanth∅: Ike @4.35 yes the animated one; and if i'd known it was animated before going i probably would've declined. so, i was unhappy when the movie started but it turned out to be done well. (ie where it was unbelievable & unrealistic it wasn't pretending to be realistic or believable)
	5:47pm Brendan: Fantastic tune, set, show. (Game set match). Nicely done Fabio. And many thanks.
	5:50pm Carmichael: My cousin had a VERY minor role in The Green Mile. I think his credit was Man in Chair.
	5:53pm tim from champaign: I think electronically treated trumpet is my next favorite sound after mangled guitar.
	5:55pm katharsis: Many thanks.
	5:55pm Phillippe Bastille: @ Charmichael Yeah, my son will likely be Wedding Photographer. He said the director Patty Jenkins is an amazingly nice person who spent time chatting with everyone in the scene for an extended period. He spent time in LA, but has gotten more parts back here in the Baltimore/DC area. Discovery Channel and their offshoots are here in the area and he's had several uncredited little parts in the renactment shows
	5:55pm northguineahills: bon merci, Fabio!
	5:56pm Carmichael: Smith!
	5:56pm Phillippe Bastille: Thank you for a fun time Fabio
	👻 5:56pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm brainiac: For sexy times, try Strength Through Failure
	👻 5:56pm chresti: Thanks Fabio-fantastico!
	5:57pm dale: the smiths!
	5:57pm coelacanth∅: baby it's you: the failure of failure.
	👻 5:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. I guess X.Ray's wake is underway, RIP.
	5:58pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Fabio { emergency - emergency - everyone to get from street }
	5:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio
	5:59pm Bunny264: Fabs!
	6:00pm Rich in Washington: Googled Enjoyment Machine while here at work. Yikes!
	6:01pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Fabio! Great show!
