Search the text online, you'll find. I made one edit.

I hear there are beautiful leper colonies on the Hawiian Islands.

"The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England"
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 3:15pm
Alison Porchnik:

I see the edit; the original was undoubtedly some opaque euphemism you assumed no one would understand.
Avatar 3:16pm
Droll:

If your nose collapses and begins to ooze a smelly liquid you can always call 1-800-Free-NoseJiob.com. Make your own "My leper has no nose. How does he smell?" joke.

Where is the edit? I can't find my copy of the book.

I like the conceit of a Lonely Planet type of guide for fourteenth-century England.

I think there's a BBC three-part show you can find on Youtube called The Elizabethan Time Traveller or something like that. Really interesting.

<That is why people are absolutely terrified of it. And that is why, if you catch it, very few people will dare to come near you.>

He's right -- that sure sounds like WFMU to me.
  3:21pm
Laura L:

And you made me read it twice now to try to find the edit--isn't it just that you swapped the order of the paragraphs and gave the second paragraph an indent? In addition to deleting WFMU references, that is.
Avatar 3:24pm
still b/p:

A subsequent paragraph says, "...leper hospitals are set up on the roads out of towns. Therein, it is supposed, the lepers are fornicating furiously, in line with their supposedly sinful natures, and so most lepers do not actually go to these places until forced to do so."
If you was horribly afflicted and ostracized, you WOULDN'T go for the FF?

Yes, Laura. Caught me as well.

My hands & feet haven't had much sensation lately. Should I be worried?
Avatar 3:27pm
Droll:

How are the lepers going to fornicate if their penises have putrefied?

Which phrase replaces WFMU? "living death"? "Your breath will be considered to be of similar quality to the smell of the WFMU main studio mic"?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:27pm
Andrew Waterloo:

I figured he added WFMU references.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:27pm
Irwin:

LL discovered the edit. She wins! However, since she won something from me in the past 30 days, she is disqualified from collecting the prize. We have to give others a fair chance.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:28pm
mariano:

There's that old song about leprosy, remember anyone?
Leprosy, crawling all over me
There goes my left ear, into my draft beer...
Kiss me quick! There goes my upper lip!
There goes my eyeball, into my highball...

Probably not remembering the lyrics 100% accurately, it's some of my grandparents' Rat Pack era stuff.

There was a problem at the leper hockey game the other night. There was a face off in the corner.

You know, I wasn't going to mention it, but I noticed that the comma at "around a cesspit," should be deleted, 'cause that's a compound predicate. There, I've said it.

I am awed.

FSK means voluntary self-control, btw.

Mariano: "Infrarouge" by the Mighty Bop, from La Vague Sensorielle.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:25pm
mariano:

Cool, thanks so much, Irwin! Back when I'd hear these in the 90s on KPFA, it was harder to find out who did what, because he usually just credited whoever mixed the clip for his show.

Pretentious Germans will often say "whatever" in English.

Never mind, I was wrong: he totally credited the music! I must've been to buzzed last time I heard this.

Joe Frank is an out-of-mind experience. I'm left too disoriented...or too focused to work.

Ahhh, 45 years and the more things change, the more they stay the same: Smut peddlers to the last. And pinkos... probably still moochin' money from the listeners.

Hmm, don't have this album by Mary Lorson & Billy Coté. What year?

2002. I think.

Yikes, just checking in. I missed a lot of good music, but at least I didn't break the yogurt maker.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:38pm
Irwin:

Piano Creeps - 2003: en.wikipedia.org...
  5:45pm
Laura L:

Thanks! I should get that one--it's great work music--and we all need great work music. But what music to play when breaking the yogurt maker?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:46pm
Ike:

I'm not even sure how I would break my yogurt maker, other than throwing it out the window from the third floor. It's small, but pretty sturdy-looking.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 5:48pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

I've only had store-bought yogurt. Is it a lot of work to make yogurt at home or at the office?
Avatar 5:49pm
Carmichael:

Only Helmut Klankschein knows. It was probably a Braun.

Droll:

. o O ( He's clearly saying "Medison". It's definitely a printing error. )
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:52pm
Ike:

KFHP, it's pretty easy, but when I've tried it, it comes out all watery. I need a strainer. Even then it's probably unlikely to be as good as "Greek" yogurt. I usually just buy that lately (plain Cabot on sale).

I don't trust that face. I'm pretty sure Helmut did break it.

I like how all the Great Hit pop songs of the 70's were already taken and K-tel settled for the Decent pop songs. Somewhere I have my "Mediocre Melodies of '74" compilation... Almost decent.


Thanks Irwin! Have a fun week yinz!
