Listener comments!
	10:03pm 12539: You're late, Dave!
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: Sorry! Good evening, all!
	10:03pm P-90: Hello World ! ( of Echo)
	10:04pm pacific standard simon: Now THAT'S a drumroll, Dave!
	10:05pm Dave Mandl: I can't take credit for it. I can't play a drumroll.
	10:05pm JakeGould: Give the drummer some oxygen, please.
	10:05pm Droll: With all due respect, I think Steve Smith does the smoothest drum roll. Seamless single to double stroke changeover. Absolute stick control. Even sounds the same one handed.
	10:06pm pacific standard simon: I thought it was like a fanfare for yourself.
	10:07pm pacific standard simon: Game's over, by the way.
	10:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ... Daves ?
	10:08pm pacific standard simon: Why does this song sound like a King Crimson cover?
	10:08pm P-90: Dont forget Bill Bruford's bee-utiful snare drum tone and rolls
	10:09pm JakeGould: Yup, game over! www.youtube.com...
	10:09pm P-90: @ pss: we were sorta going in the same direction there sorta
	10:10pm Droll: [franticly solving equations] I don't think measure 37 should have been 13/8 if measure 43 is going to be 5/4. At least the band sounds reasonably rehearsed.
	10:11pm P-90: @ Droll: Xactly
	10:12pm pacific standard simon: Uh-huh, Jake, that clip pretty much sums up what Kaepernick's going to be saying to himself in the off season. Seems that way, p-90.
	10:14pm davex: Hi Dave(s) and others...
	10:14pm pacific standard simon: Whenever I hear this song, I hear the Jon Hendricks vocal version.
	10:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - for Bud Powell - like Bird w/ a left hand on the keyboard - beaten by racist cops & braindamaged, I believe ??...
	10:15pm Mayuko: Good evening. Happy to listen to Thelonious Monk's Piano now for the first time in a long time.
	10:16pm David L.B. is RRN63: - true pss - but more Monk listening will help...
	10:18pm Dave Mandl: Evening, @Mayuko, @DLBRRN63, @pss, @davex, @P-90, @Droll, @Jake, @12539.
	10:20pm pacific standard simon: Have you designed any jazz CD covers, Mayuko?
	10:26pm Mayuko: I'm actually not familiar to Jazz at all, Simon - But I used to listen to Thelonious Monk a lot. I liked that it sounded to me like an alert sound from a broken railroad crossing or something (although I don't know what it sounds like in the US... was thinking about the ones in Tokyo)
	10:31pm pacific standard simon: Fair enough. The style of your cut paper illustrations would be appropriate for be-bop jazz, such as Monk.
	10:34pm pacific standard simon: I was delighted to discover that I share a birthday with Durutti.
	10:35pm Dave Mandl: The anarchist?
	10:35pm pacific standard simon: Indeed!
	10:36pm Dave Mandl: Glad to hear it!
	10:36pm Marmalade Kitty: Evening Dave and all!
	10:37pm Dave Mandl: Evening, Kitty.
	10:40pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...I've made the comparison of Monk to Syd Barrett, of all people - in that they were individuals who had non-standard nervous systems & personalities - & who from their unique views introduced novel structures in music...
	10:44pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...Residents reminds me of Beefheart somehow - & I was reading his wiki page about how crazy & mean to his band he often was...
	10:44pm pacific standard simon: I'd be surprised to find any significant similarities -- they seem like very different people.
	10:45pm Droll: Define "Standard".
	10:47pm David L.B. is RRN63: - yeah - not to overstate it - just that they were people who saw things in unique ways (& behaved in unique ways...) & I think gave us a glimpse into another place thru their musics & writing & playing - & this had an effect on their respective genres...
	10:50pm P-90: こんばんは Good Evening Ms. Maruko. Your designs are very beautiful, I agree that your style would be very appropriate for some types of Jazz.
	10:50pm Droll: Hylozoism is the philosophical point of view that all matter (including the universe as a whole) is in some sense alive. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org...
	10:52pm pacific standard simon: Define "alive".
	10:53pm pacific standard simon: ;)
	10:54pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...matter = energy = information = consciousness...it's an interesting point of view some have...
	10:56pm pacific standard simon: On the other hand, my copy of Beefheart's original Clear Spot tore itself apart every time it came out of my record shelves. For that matter, so did the die-cut Mirror Man.
	10:56pm earrie: alive -- possessing life; opposite of dead. The state that follows birth and precedes death. The state of being alive and living.
	10:57pm P-90: Uh- oh, here we go... Define "tricky territory"
	10:58pm earrie: Life -(biology) A status given to any entity including animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, etc. — and sometimes viruses — having the properties of replication and metabolism. -intrinsically messy.
	10:58pm 12539: Let's just cut to the chase and define "define."
	10:59pm David L.B. is RRN63: de - fine: literally to 'make finite'
	11:00pm P-90: @12etc.: haha! Now we're getting somewhere
	11:00pm Mayuko: Thank you, P-90!! I hope some jazz musicians with a bit weird nervous systems driven by some fungi in their brain will ask me to do covers for them.
	11:03pm Droll: Not my definition -- use Wikipedia to define "define". It's turtles all the way down.
	11:03pm pacific standard simon: "properties of replication and metabolism" -- now it gets interesting. If you've had yourself sterilized, do you still have the property of replication? Or is that nit-picking? And does a sun have a metabolism? I tend to think so.
	11:03pm earrie: The mean calculator calculated the mean of meanings for several average definitions. It was a meaningless endeavour.
	11:08pm Droll: If this was a prized LP in DM's childhood household, I regret not having grown up there.
	11:09pm David L.B. is RRN63: - if you're sterilized & still alive, your cells are still replicating w/in you (you are still growing - & constantly dying as well!) ...It is turtles all the way down - because things are not really finite - they are infinite: defining - making finite - giving something boundaries or an end (a fine) - is sort-of arbitrary, but agreed upon to have terms for thought & therefore speech. Games are all about Rules - & agreeing on them to Play. In Philosophical discussions - the 1st thing you always have to do is define terms to see if you're even talking about the same thing(s) 1st. What is 'Alive' & what is Not is deffo wunna the big ones !...
	11:10pm pacific standard simon: May I just interject a statement that I find this shortening of Dave Mandl's show extremely annoying, and clearly a sign of the end times?
	11:11pm Andrew Waterloo: @Droll, yah I think the prize LP in my household was at best The Travelling Wilbury's Volume 2 followed by the Dirty Dancing Soundtrack
	11:11pm pacific standard simon: And... well said (sort of) Rabbit.
	11:11pm P-90: @Mayuko: Sumimasen! I misspelled your name. I think there are a lot of Jazz musicians who listen to WFMU. Perhaps some of the will have enough fungus in their non-standard brains to notice the quality of your work.
	11:11pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...Monica left on her own, great to have Blumin back - & uh - yeah pss...
	11:14pm !.!: WECIME BACK my man MANDIL......you been gone so long we at fmu forgot u ubut we luv u n yer musc luv MANDIL wher eu been welcom eback WOW,,,!!!! gr88888!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (for statger here, MANDIL IDS FMS VETREN he used to be regualr an he is gr*8,,,!)
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: The prize LPs in my parents' home were Something Cool by June Christy (dad) and Open Fire, Two Guitars by Johnny Mathis (mom).
	11:15pm P-90: @Droll: You won that round with "turtles all the way down"
	11:15pm tom: wonder if this was written on piano first then transcribed for brass, or just written for brass in the first place.
	11:16pm !.!: @p-90@droll: is RUSSIL, no? bertan
	11:17pm pacific standard simon: Dude, the meds! Take the needle out!
	11:20pm P-90: @pss: your folks had good ears. My Mom: various Dinah Washington; Bobby Short singing Cole Porter; the Playboy Jazz festival LPs Dad: Harry Belafonte, Van Morrison, Louis Armstrong's Hot Fives and Sevens
	11:20pm Mayuko: P-90, I guess there are many fungi-driven listeners esp at this Blumin-Mandl hours (and perhaps friday afternoon,) so there's a chance!
	11:21pm !.!: @p SIMOn: a lot ppl think turtels is apokraphyl r sumthin or just sroty i mena story...NO,,,,,it is the REAL bertrin RUSSIL ephemera from his "principia mathematica" dayz......GR8 lecture story,,,,!!!!!!! also luv MANDIL fmu DJ welCIM bac my BRO......luv n lu yer UXIC,,,,!!!!!!
	11:22pm P-90: @! It's from a story Alan Watts liked to tell
	11:24pm !.!: @mauko: not sure what mycological peeps you mean.....it's EARLY WORJK MORNIN here, but i guess u RIGT in MANDIL area of USA migt ne PARTY timr for some fmu lover......! ha mayne they hi u right.....good 4 them.....!!! luv u n luv mandiul n luv u music,,,!!
	11:24pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...'the World is sitting on a Giant Turtle.' - 'But - what is the Turtle standing on ??' - 'Another Turtle!' - '& that Turtle ??' - '...Oh - you can't fool me: It's Turtles all the way down !'...
	11:25pm Droll: pss, This IS the end-times: Mandl can fit in more brass than Bethany per show, and his show is only 2 hours, and he wastes 2% on rock, and another 3-5% on dead air before going on mic... It's all wrong.
	11:26pm !.!: mycology n mayuko,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wattsssss....!!!! mandil....!!!!! luv :)))))))))
	11:26pm P-90: @ RevRab: right again, Robin! Now, did you know that off the top or did you search it?
	11:27pm Ike: The enthusiasm is great, but is decent spelling and grammar too much to ask? I already had a mysterious migraine earlier today. If it comes back, it'll be because I tried to comprehend your comments, @!.!.
	11:27pm David L.B. is RRN63: - doesn't everybody know that one ??
	11:28pm Andrew Waterloo: @RRN63 the real question is, what is the sex of the turtle and will it mate with other turtles with world supporting discs on their back? Also, does the turtle continue to exist if nobody believes in it?
	11:28pm earrie: 3hr>2hr was kindness on Dave's part, no? Giving up an hour to allow for the great Sunday schedule shuffle for this particular season.
	11:28pm !.!: @ikeL : lol u silluy like a baby i lik u ,,,! spell in english? wy not,???? he CAN DO,,,,!!!!!!!!
	11:29pm pacific standard simon: Good comeback, David LB... so what's UP, doc?
	11:30pm !.!: @watwrloo ANDRIEW: cn PLATO c SHADOE of TURTLE,,,???????
	11:30pm Ike: This act is not cute or endearing in my humble opinion, but I wish you excellent gravy and muffins nonetheless.
	11:32pm !.!: ...he go PUSH PUSH......want PICH PUCH PUSH.......
	11:32pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...I love the Watts Kenzo sampled on I think his last Show:...'Yoga is sold in the U.S. like everything is - as something that's Good For You'...he may have become a drunk trying to earn a buck like everybody else - but that was prescient no??...
	11:32pm Dave Mandl: Thanks, folks. The move to a two-hour show wasn't my choice, it was just a reshuffling of the grid by Ken. But I'm fine with it. It's like a vacation without actually taking a vacation.
	11:33pm !.!: @pete: but still NO, CNPT cannot,,,!!!!!!
	11:34pm !.!: @my MAN AVY DAVT DAVY MANDIL: 10 mom i mean 10 min OR 10 hour...WE STRILL LUV......it why we here ;)))) so know we luv u n u music ;))))))))))))))) ps luv ken 2
	11:35pm !.!: ken bald, righ? luv ))))))
	11:35pm Dave Mandl: @!.!: I'm a copyeditor, but we're very inclusive here. All kinds of grammar/spelling/punctuation welcome.
	11:36pm Droll: Yes, It's like vacating the hour of 9-10pm. The worst part is I like having Blumin's show back and it's a good bridge to WoE. They should both be 3 hours. And, of course, Bethany needs 3 hours because the music is long-form.
	11:36pm P-90: @!...!!! OMG you were correct too... I forgot, it WAS in response to a lecture on astronomy by Russel that the lady said: That was bullshit, Earth is resting on a flat plate, that rests on the backs of four huge elephants, that stand on the back of a giant turtle. Russel: then what is the turtle standing on? Lady: another giant turtle. Russel: and what is HE standing on? Lady: Oh, you can't fool me, silly! It's turtles all the way down!
	11:37pm David L.B. is RRN63: Neal Cassady: ...'All the Forms are Known'... Ginsberg [exasperated, enchanted]:...'He's always like that !!'...
	11:37pm pacific standard simon: If Watts had lived to see Pilates, he would have been speechless. Ken will eventually force me to donate all my moneys to World of Echo -- This is part of his plan.
	11:40pm David L.B. is RRN63: Bethany does an amazing job in one hour.
	11:40pm Andrew Waterloo: It would actually be nice we had an A440 type alternate stream.
	11:41pm !.!: i do 30min
	11:42pm Dave Mandl: @pss: That is the plan, definitely.
	11:43pm pacific standard simon: I think that all DJs that I like should migrate to the Give The Drummer Radio stream, but that's just my perfect world plan.
	11:43pm 12539: Is this set's theme, Unpronounceable Names?
	11:44pm P-90: @Dave: by my math, you should now be guarenteeing "less than 3% R&R". Wait, let me check that again
	11:46pm Andrew Waterloo: @PSS, then how do we use GTD to get away from certain mother stream DJs?
	11:47pm Dave Mandl: @12539: Yeah, this will be kind of a tough set to pronounce.
	11:47pm Droll: 12539, To the contrary, Mandl loves a good plosive and sibilant to emphasize and repeat. He probably stands behind a shower curtain so he doesn't drench the mic.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I like affricates, to tell you the truth. Funny, I was just talking to someone about phonetics earlier this evening.
	11:48pm 12539: @Droll, that's what happens when you grow up missing an "e" in your name.
	11:49pm P-90: @RevvedRab: That WAS.paricularly prescient. But I think his career and his taste for vodka were two distinct things
	11:49pm Dave Mandl: Affricate = "a stop + a homorganic fricative." I remember that from linguistics class.
	11:50pm pacific standard simon: This is the "coughing up a hairball" set. My cat has pronounced the names many times in the early hours of the morning.
	11:52pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...what ,y impression has been that they say (his bio. - 'Genuine Fake') is that Watts had to earn money for his family trotting out the same stuff on lecture tours - & the pressure lead him to drink...but it's also true that in Zen there are Drunken Saints...
	11:52pm P-90: Remember George Carlin's phonetic description of a fart as an example of a "bi-labial fricative"?
	11:56pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, bilabial fricative. My first phonetics lesson.
	11:56pm David L.B. is RRN63: Carlin was so much more than just another stand-up comedian (as hard as that is)...
	11:57pm 12539: Thanks, Mr Mandl.
	11:58pm Droll: Carlin liked language -- 7-Words skit is also his. Thanks for the dinner music, DM. The missing hour is painfully obvious some weeks.
	11:58pm earrie: Carlin knew why kids like me didn't like 'squaaaash'.
	11:58pm pacific standard simon: If there were more time, I would task you with finding a copy of Vivian Stanshall's "Labial-Dental Fricative" in the record library.
	11:59pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...I fffffff(splat)rikkin' love this program.
	11:59pm pacific standard simon: But nevermind, nevermind.... peace and love, Mr. Mandl.
	11:59pm peep: Been imbibing in your competition on the dial (stream) Dub Atomic Mr. Mandl. but have been enjoying the comments very much. You should charge admission and serve overpriced drinks.
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, Dave.
	11:59pm P-90: Didgeridoo Duets! One of Daffy's favorite albums Rev, I think he was drinking heavily long before ennui set in about delivering the same message(s) over and over. And he knew how inportant the message was, and he was happy to be ABLE to make a living at it, instead of having to do something that wasn't true to his nature. And all dat shit...
	12:01am P-90: Thanks, 2-hour Dave!
	12:01am pacific standard simon: I like Samantha, too...
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Night, folks. Have a great week!

	11:11pm Andrew Waterloo: @Droll, yah I think the prize LP in my household was at best The Travelling Wilbury's Volume 2 followed by the Dirty Dancing Soundtrack
	11:11pm pacific standard simon: And... well said (sort of) Rabbit.
	11:11pm P-90: @Mayuko: Sumimasen! I misspelled your name. I think there are a lot of Jazz musicians who listen to WFMU. Perhaps some of the will have enough fungus in their non-standard brains to notice the quality of your work.
	11:11pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...Monica left on her own, great to have Blumin back - & uh - yeah pss...

	11:14pm pacific standard simon: The prize LPs in my parents' home were Something Cool by June Christy (dad) and Open Fire, Two Guitars by Johnny Mathis (mom).
	11:15pm P-90: @Droll: You won that round with "turtles all the way down"
	11:15pm tom: wonder if this was written on piano first then transcribed for brass, or just written for brass in the first place.
	11:16pm !.!: @p-90@droll: is RUSSIL, no? bertan
	11:17pm pacific standard simon: Dude, the meds! Take the needle out!
	11:20pm P-90: @pss: your folks had good ears. My Mom: various Dinah Washington; Bobby Short singing Cole Porter; the Playboy Jazz festival LPs Dad: Harry Belafonte, Van Morrison, Louis Armstrong's Hot Fives and Sevens
	11:20pm Mayuko: P-90, I guess there are many fungi-driven listeners esp at this Blumin-Mandl hours (and perhaps friday afternoon,) so there's a chance!
	11:21pm !.!: @p SIMOn: a lot ppl think turtels is apokraphyl r sumthin or just sroty i mena story...NO,,,,,it is the REAL bertrin RUSSIL ephemera from his "principia mathematica" dayz......GR8 lecture story,,,,!!!!!!! also luv MANDIL fmu DJ welCIM bac my BRO......luv n lu yer UXIC,,,,!!!!!!

	11:24pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...'the World is sitting on a Giant Turtle.' - 'But - what is the Turtle standing on ??' - 'Another Turtle!' - '& that Turtle ??' - '...Oh - you can't fool me: It's Turtles all the way down !'...
	11:25pm Droll: pss, This IS the end-times: Mandl can fit in more brass than Bethany per show, and his show is only 2 hours, and he wastes 2% on rock, and another 3-5% on dead air before going on mic... It's all wrong.
	11:26pm !.!: mycology n mayuko,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wattsssss....!!!! mandil....!!!!! luv :)))))))))
	11:26pm P-90: @ RevRab: right again, Robin! Now, did you know that off the top or did you search it?
	11:27pm Ike: The enthusiasm is great, but is decent spelling and grammar too much to ask? I already had a mysterious migraine earlier today. If it comes back, it'll be because I tried to comprehend your comments, @!.!.
	11:27pm David L.B. is RRN63: - doesn't everybody know that one ??
	11:28pm Andrew Waterloo: @RRN63 the real question is, what is the sex of the turtle and will it mate with other turtles with world supporting discs on their back? Also, does the turtle continue to exist if nobody believes in it?
	11:28pm earrie: 3hr>2hr was kindness on Dave's part, no? Giving up an hour to allow for the great Sunday schedule shuffle for this particular season.
	11:28pm !.!: @ikeL : lol u silluy like a baby i lik u ,,,! spell in english? wy not,???? he CAN DO,,,,!!!!!!!!
	11:29pm pacific standard simon: Good comeback, David LB... so what's UP, doc?
	11:30pm !.!: @watwrloo ANDRIEW: cn PLATO c SHADOE of TURTLE,,,???????
	11:30pm Ike: This act is not cute or endearing in my humble opinion, but I wish you excellent gravy and muffins nonetheless.
	11:32pm !.!: ...he go PUSH PUSH......want PICH PUCH PUSH.......
	11:32pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...I love the Watts Kenzo sampled on I think his last Show:...'Yoga is sold in the U.S. like everything is - as something that's Good For You'...he may have become a drunk trying to earn a buck like everybody else - but that was prescient no??...
	11:32pm Dave Mandl: Thanks, folks. The move to a two-hour show wasn't my choice, it was just a reshuffling of the grid by Ken. But I'm fine with it. It's like a vacation without actually taking a vacation.
	11:33pm !.!: @pete: but still NO, CNPT cannot,,,!!!!!!
	11:34pm !.!: @my MAN AVY DAVT DAVY MANDIL: 10 mom i mean 10 min OR 10 hour...WE STRILL LUV......it why we here ;)))) so know we luv u n u music ;))))))))))))))) ps luv ken 2
	11:35pm !.!: ken bald, righ? luv ))))))
	11:35pm Dave Mandl: @!.!: I'm a copyeditor, but we're very inclusive here. All kinds of grammar/spelling/punctuation welcome.
	11:36pm Droll: Yes, It's like vacating the hour of 9-10pm. The worst part is I like having Blumin's show back and it's a good bridge to WoE. They should both be 3 hours. And, of course, Bethany needs 3 hours because the music is long-form.
	11:36pm P-90: @!...!!! OMG you were correct too... I forgot, it WAS in response to a lecture on astronomy by Russel that the lady said: That was bullshit, Earth is resting on a flat plate, that rests on the backs of four huge elephants, that stand on the back of a giant turtle. Russel: then what is the turtle standing on? Lady: another giant turtle. Russel: and what is HE standing on? Lady: Oh, you can't fool me, silly! It's turtles all the way down!
	11:37pm David L.B. is RRN63: Neal Cassady: ...'All the Forms are Known'... Ginsberg [exasperated, enchanted]:...'He's always like that !!'...
	11:37pm pacific standard simon: If Watts had lived to see Pilates, he would have been speechless. Ken will eventually force me to donate all my moneys to World of Echo -- This is part of his plan.
	11:40pm David L.B. is RRN63: Bethany does an amazing job in one hour.
	11:40pm Andrew Waterloo: It would actually be nice we had an A440 type alternate stream.
	11:41pm !.!: i do 30min
	11:42pm Dave Mandl: @pss: That is the plan, definitely.
	11:43pm pacific standard simon: I think that all DJs that I like should migrate to the Give The Drummer Radio stream, but that's just my perfect world plan.
	11:43pm 12539: Is this set's theme, Unpronounceable Names?
	11:44pm P-90: @Dave: by my math, you should now be guarenteeing "less than 3% R&R". Wait, let me check that again
	11:46pm Andrew Waterloo: @PSS, then how do we use GTD to get away from certain mother stream DJs?
	11:47pm Dave Mandl: @12539: Yeah, this will be kind of a tough set to pronounce.
	11:47pm Droll: 12539, To the contrary, Mandl loves a good plosive and sibilant to emphasize and repeat. He probably stands behind a shower curtain so he doesn't drench the mic.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: @Droll: I like affricates, to tell you the truth. Funny, I was just talking to someone about phonetics earlier this evening.
	11:48pm 12539: @Droll, that's what happens when you grow up missing an "e" in your name.
	11:49pm P-90: @RevvedRab: That WAS.paricularly prescient. But I think his career and his taste for vodka were two distinct things
	11:49pm Dave Mandl: Affricate = "a stop + a homorganic fricative." I remember that from linguistics class.
	11:50pm pacific standard simon: This is the "coughing up a hairball" set. My cat has pronounced the names many times in the early hours of the morning.
	11:52pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...what ,y impression has been that they say (his bio. - 'Genuine Fake') is that Watts had to earn money for his family trotting out the same stuff on lecture tours - & the pressure lead him to drink...but it's also true that in Zen there are Drunken Saints...
	11:52pm P-90: Remember George Carlin's phonetic description of a fart as an example of a "bi-labial fricative"?
	11:56pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, bilabial fricative. My first phonetics lesson.
	11:56pm David L.B. is RRN63: Carlin was so much more than just another stand-up comedian (as hard as that is)...
	11:57pm 12539: Thanks, Mr Mandl.
	11:58pm Droll: Carlin liked language -- 7-Words skit is also his. Thanks for the dinner music, DM. The missing hour is painfully obvious some weeks.
	11:58pm earrie: Carlin knew why kids like me didn't like 'squaaaash'.
	11:58pm pacific standard simon: If there were more time, I would task you with finding a copy of Vivian Stanshall's "Labial-Dental Fricative" in the record library.
	11:59pm David L.B. is RRN63: ...I fffffff(splat)rikkin' love this program.
	11:59pm pacific standard simon: But nevermind, nevermind.... peace and love, Mr. Mandl.
	11:59pm peep: Been imbibing in your competition on the dial (stream) Dub Atomic Mr. Mandl. but have been enjoying the comments very much. You should charge admission and serve overpriced drinks.
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, Dave.
	11:59pm P-90: Didgeridoo Duets! One of Daffy's favorite albums Rev, I think he was drinking heavily long before ennui set in about delivering the same message(s) over and over. And he knew how inportant the message was, and he was happy to be ABLE to make a living at it, instead of having to do something that wasn't true to his nature. And all dat shit...
	12:01am P-90: Thanks, 2-hour Dave!
	12:01am pacific standard simon: I like Samantha, too...
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Night, folks. Have a great week!
