	12:06pm Alex In Illinois: I did not know that Joplin had anything more than mining.
	12:07pm joe: @Michael98145 I showed that sign to the wife for the first time the last week. She felt it was very poor wording :)
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: James! Dave! Alex! joe!
	12:07pm Listening Out There: Animation illustrates your typical Trump cabinet member...
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: L.O.T.!
	12:09pm dan: @L.O.T. More like Oprah when she gave her entire audience cars.
	12:09pm Parq: Rawk.
	12:10pm Parq: Dan, Seven Second Delay capped that once by giving their entire audience DVDs of the Oprah segment. I still have mine.
	12:11pm Roberto: Whoa, I almost forgot to Hinky my Dinky!
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: Parq! Roberto!
	12:12pm joe: @UM I really like where all this has been going
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Can you tell me where it's going?!
	12:13pm Funky16corners: I like this, Unk. Have you heard any Flying Saucer Attack? Like this but way fuzzier
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: I've seen the film depicted in the GIF and it's taken me 15 minutes to google my way to the title. Time for a nap! Hi, @UM, & Hinkers.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: No, Larry. I'll seek it out.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Jeff! Don't leave us hangin'!
	12:15pm Jeff Golick: en.wikipedia.org... -- Miyazaki's first as director.
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Wow! I had no idea it was his.
	🛒 12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Michael! Are we floating down stream to piles of cash?
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: Franco!
	12:19pm Dean: I could use that dough. A new DAC caught my eye. Fully rigged it'll run ~$100K.
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	12:20pm joe: @UM No and that's why I like it
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: Uh huh.
	12:23pm Dean: Wanna know what the name of the original bar occupied by the first Trader Vic's used to be called? Hinky Dink's. https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/03/22/trader-vics-a-bastion-of-tiki-in-emeryville-started-as-a-one-room-beer-parlor-in-oakland
	12:24pm Lane Gray: Hey y'all
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, my saved search on eBay turns up a lot of memorabilia from there, Dean.
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Lane!
	12:24pm Dean: Jesus. "...what the name...used to be called"! Half awake here.
	12:26pm Jeff Golick: It all ties together.
	12:28pm Dean: Recently acquired a recording of Steve Hillage at MSG, '77, when Clive Bunker was drumming. He's a monster. That's the tour I got to hear. Opened for ELO!
	12:28pm dan: Luckily I got to see Jethro Tull before they called it quits. 2008 at Jones Beach during their 40th anniversary tour with Peter Frampton opening. Locomotive Breath was the last song they played.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: It was the last song I played too...to date.
	12:29pm Webhamster Henry: Lupin III is on his way to the Hinky Dinky.
	🛒 12:29pm Franco Twinkie: Well Okay, this. You were something last Sunday. You really project menace, you know that, right?
	12:30pm Listening Out There: And the hits keep on comin'...
	12:30pm dan: @Dean When it comes to drummers in Jethro Tull, Barrimore Barlow beats Clive Bunker.
	12:30pm joe: I started watching Lupin III a couple of weeks ago and got sidetracked. I wish I could remember what streaming service I was watching it on so I can go back and finish watching it.
	12:30pm doctorjazz: This has nothing on the Uncle Michael version!
	12:30pm Webhamster Henry: The pleasures plead guilty.
	12:31pm Uncle Menace: What is a Lupin III?
	12:31pm Funky16corners: Memories of Boy Scout Camp...
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Henry! Doc!
	12:32pm dan: How did we go from the so-called boy band of the day "Three Dog Night" to "One Direction"?
	12:32pm joe: I meant Lupin the Third.
	12:32pm Webhamster Henry: @Joe it's really good! I remember seeing it at the Film Forum's old HQ on Watts Street right before they moved. @Uncle Menace, check out Jeff Golick's link
	12:34pm joe: I've just started watching more Anime. I've found I have a real soft spot for 70's early 80's stuff.
	12:34pm Jeff Golick: head spinning
	12:34pm Dean: Bunker seems slightly out of his element in Hillage's band, which makes for an invigorating tension between Bunker's bluesy pummeling and Hillage & Co.'s psychedelic cool.
	12:34pm listener james from westwood: Dig hearing that full jingle!
	12:34pm Webhamster Henry: Hinky Dinky was in the Top Value Stamp system? Hmm! Here's an industrial tune about Plaid Stamps: jhhl.net...
	12:35pm rw: Did I just hear “bacon by the piece?”
	12:35pm dan: @James I'm used to hearing Shalamar cut right in the middle.
	12:36pm Lane Gray: Was our adoption attempt successful?
	12:36pm Funky16corners: It was...
	12:36pm sinner: .....here.
	12:37pm Dean: http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/84766
	12:37pm joe: And here comes the flood of links :) www.wfmu.org...
	12:39pm Dean: UM appears about 12 minutes into the last video.
	🛒 12:39pm Franco Twinkie: I implore all who did not watch the marathon talent extravaganza to put it on your weekend entertainment docket right now.
	12:42pm dan: This is real country music
	12:42pm Lane Gray: Gotta be Curly Chalker on that Hank
	12:44pm Funky16corners: Ahhhhhhh yes.
	12:44pm chresti: I was visiting JA just now, to congratulate him on his stellar rendition of the believe in miracles song
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Lane, did you email John Dalton about the adoption per the adoption page instructions? Granny may have beaten you to the punch.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Sinner! rw! Yes, Top Value, Henry. Yes, by the piece, rw.
	12:47pm doctorjazz: Live Dead, making me smile (even with Donna there
	12:47pm Jeff Moore: I feel Jeff Conklin's quietly smiling presence. Not to imply that he's the only one allowed to play the Dead...
	🛒 12:48pm Franco Twinkie: Doc, I know, Donna with her checkered slacks.
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: Jeff! You know I was just meeting Jeff C for the first time, post Hoof, yes?
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: My slacks go with my past.
	12:50pm Jeff Moore: I don't know that.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: You knew it now!
	12:51pm Jeff Moore: You are friend to all the Jeffs.
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Phil Lesh just played in the NY area sadly missed him this time.
	12:53pm Jeff Golick: It's true.
	12:53pm Jeff Golick: (re Jeff's comment)
	12:54pm chresti: Jeff, thanks for those marathon pics!
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, but keep all those freaking Geoffs the hell away from me.
	12:54pm Jeff Moore: You're welcome!
	12:57pm Jeff Moore: Michael, have you met Noise and Syrup Jeff M, and of course Jeff Sarge? Wondering how close you are to having met every darned Jeff.
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: I met Jeff M in 2018 and Sarge last Sunday.
	1:00pm dan: Here’s a question, which Face had the better voice, Steve Marriott or Rod Stewart?
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: ...Davidson's another.
	1:00pm joe: Living life in the Jeff Set
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: Saw Jeff D on Saturday...didn't meet him.
	1:01pm joe: @dan For the stuff Steve did he had the better voice for the stuff Rod did he had the better voice. :)
	1:03pm Parq: Seems strange to be listening to this kind of music without using the album cover to sift out the seeds.
	1:03pm dan: @joe I think Steve Marriott could have sung "Stay With Me" better than Rod Stewart.Even Eric Carmen (the American Steve Marriott) could have done a better job. Just my opinion
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: What if God and Superman had a fight?
	1:05pm Parq: Was Hal Blain on this 5th D track?
	🛒 1:05pm Brian in UK: @parq. Ha Ha. Double albums for special events.
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Let's just go with 'yes' Parq. Or....Google.
	1:06pm Parq: UM, you'd need an arena with really good insurance.
	🛒 1:06pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Huzzah! I just got the email confirming that i have adopted Uncle Michael for the year! Drinks are on the house.
	1:07pm Dean: Superman, meh. I fought him a couple months ago. He's a little wuss.
	🛒 1:08pm Brian in UK: Who is this God you speak of.
	1:08pm joe: @dan I think the issue there for me is that you take a song like Stay with Me I will always hear Rod Stewart singing that song. Marriott would have done a STELLAR version of the song but it would never invoke the same reaction that the version we all no does for me. So really the only way it would not be better for me is through the complete changing of history.
	1:09pm chresti: haha parq!@1:03
	1:09pm Dean: Indeed.
	1:10pm joe: @Parq I can't find specific mention of Hal but confirmation on the Wrecking Crew playing on it so I would be comfortable in saying yes.
	1:11pm chresti: Yay! Congratulations Granny and UM!
	🛒 1:11pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Thank you, cresti. I plan to take UM out for frozen custard this summer.
	1:12pm Dean: Drums, Hal Blaine: https://www.discogs.com/The-5th-Dimension-Individually-Collectively/release/2965453
	1:12pm joe: Discogs says yes
	1:12pm joe: Yeah what Dean said :)
	1:13pm dan: I thought this was Nina Simone singing.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! Granny!
	1:14pm Dean: Same here, dan. I'll take either Nina or Carmen.
	1:17pm chresti: love the Maytals
	1:18pm chresti: Hello Honey, is a favorite Maytals song
	🛒 1:19pm Franco Twinkie: Since I first heard Evil Ways, I've always wondered about Tina Jones and who knows who.
	1:19pm Parq: On Belock's Blaine tribute, Dennis quotes someone from the Knack as saying that he realized one day that 12 of his favorite drummers were Blaine. Similarly, I realized that virtually all of the drumming that made me love rock and roll as a kid came from that one guy. What a dynamo.
	1:20pm geezerette: Bonnie Banks, girl singer?
	🛒 1:21pm Franco Twinkie: Parq, That was Bruce Gary.
	1:21pm joe: Yeah it was Bruce Gray. I think he dropped the same quote when he was on M Shelly's show and had one of those Holy Shit he's right moments.
	🛒 1:21pm Granny Spicy Tuna: i know a male singer named Bonnie Banks. UM, i don't know what "BiUK" means?!?!?!
	1:21pm dan: UM, you need to do a show of bands that do not have a Wikipedia page such as Ginhouse.
	🛒 1:22pm Granny Spicy Tuna: wait, was that a listener name? i got horrible allergy symptoms today. hi, everyone
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: geezerette!
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: GST, BiUK is Brian in the UK.
	1:22pm joe: @dan what the hell am I going to do for 3 hours if he does that
	1:22pm geezerette: Granny, for real?
	🛒 1:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna: especially hi to Brian in UK, hee hee
	🛒 1:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna: geezerette: what for real? probably yes to whatever it is. my life is that way.
	1:23pm dan: @joe Listen to bands you've never heard of. I think it would be fascinating.
	1:24pm geezerette: Uncle Michael! You need your own stream!
	🛒 1:24pm Franco Twinkie: Granny, I feel your pain! This Spring is going to be a real motherfucker.
	🛒 1:24pm Granny Spicy Tuna: yes, i've adopted uncle michael, yes to frozen custard, yes to brain addled situation, yes to hello everyone!
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: geezer, this stream cools my toes just dandy.
	1:25pm Dean: Somebody needs to do a show of songs with vague lyrics, e.g., "How Do You Do What You Do to Me?," "The Thing," "It," etc.
	1:25pm geezerette: :D
	1:25pm dan: @Granny Spicy Tuna I have to get used to hearing UM say, "Listener Granny Spicy Tuna DJ"
	1:25pm joe: You are asking me to live my life with out rabbit holes. Woah I don't know I have to think that one over.
	🛒 1:26pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Franco Twinkie, i seriously feel like i've been bodyslammed by a luchador
	1:26pm holland oats: ALTABBA!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Holland!
	1:27pm davefromtoronto: it's a hit in any language!
	1:27pm joe: Does doing this song in French make it meta in some way?
	1:27pm Dean: Wow, that's a great band name, Meta-ABBA.
	🛒 1:28pm Franco Twinkie: Do you use an up the nose spray? It's made my life bearable at this time of the year. That and quitting smoking pot.
	🛒 1:28pm Granny Spicy Tuna: dan: i missed it if/when UM said something during the break. i've been crawling around gathering hot tea and soup and such. But what a thrill it is to be part of this wild and wacky WFMU family. The real question is: Am i UM's Granny or is UM my Uncle?
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: I'm my own grandpa.
	1:29pm dan: @UM How did I know you would respond that way.
	1:29pm Dominick: If Mitch Mitchel would have recorded Rock & Roll this would be it
	1:30pm Dominick: I meant Mitch Miller
	🛒 1:30pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I could imagine Uncle Michael doing a whole program of songs about family members— uncles, aunts, cousins, grandparents, parents, siblings… if he hasn't already!
	🛒 1:30pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Arthur Lee sing this at the Whisky a Go Go!
	🛒 1:31pm Brian in UK: Hi to Granny Spicy Tuna. Congratulations on your adoption.
	🛒 1:31pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Franco Twinkie, wow! That must've been a marvelous experience. I only saw him perform once, and it was unforgettable.
	1:32pm Dean: SFO has a display in Terminal 2 of Arhoolie Records and Down Home: https://arhoolie.org/sfo-museum-exhibit/ Is that cool or what?
	🛒 1:33pm Granny Spicy Tuna: BiUK, thank you. I had originally tried to adopt the entire GTDR stream, but that sneaky, so-called "Listener fleep" snapped it up.
	🛒 1:33pm Brian in UK: @Franco. Saw Mr Lee a few times but he never sang it. Never been to the Whskey either.
	1:35pm Dean: They'd have had a helluva time writing a song about one of my high school teachers, Mr. Bruzdowicz. Of course, we called him Mr. B, so maybe not.
	1:36pm Parq: Dean, didn't the Stones do that, "Dancing with Mr. B"? Wait...
	🛒 1:36pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Arthur Lee many times, but only once did he do that song. With a shit eating grin on his face, I might add.
	1:38pm chresti: I love songs with vague lyrics
	1:39pm Parq: Oh man, I haven't heard this great Kotke song in forever.
	1:40pm Dean: Kottke's coming to town in June.
	1:41pm Dominick: Great song by Paul Siebel, Never heard Kottke's version till now
	🛒 1:42pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, I saw him at Yoshi's in Oakland a few years ago. Is he there again?
	1:43pm Parq: Another one I love, this track from Bark, which is pretty much an augmented Hot Tuna line-up.
	1:43pm Dean: Freight & Salvage, even better! Going to hear Graham Parker at F&S next month. Hot Tuna played a few nights around New Year's Eve last year. Had to miss 'em.
	🛒 1:44pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Has anyone else had "Miracles" stuck in their head all week since the Hoof and Mouth hootenanny?
	🛒 1:44pm Brian in UK: Bark was that the cover with weed on it. No, maybe Long John Silver.
	🛒 1:45pm Franco Twinkie: Bark came in a brown paper bag.
	🛒 1:45pm Brian in UK: @Granny John Allen played it today.
	1:45pm joe: Bark was the one with the fish head
	🛒 1:46pm Granny Spicy Tuna: BiUK, JA is lucky i wasn't on the comments board. I need to punish him. Such a rascal!
	🛒 1:47pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Did he explain why they performed it sitting down? Maybe they should've had an old schoolmarm holding a yardstick between them?
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: I spent the duration of 'Miracles' arm an arm, swaying with Jim the Poet and Psychopath Jim. JtP was wearing a Gumby suit...over a teddy bear suit.
	1:48pm Parq: Missed opportunity when JA and Faye didn't quick-exit the stage under the cover of the dry ice fog (of which there seemed quite a lot that night).
	1:48pm chresti: Haven't been to SFO in years, Franco doesn't like to fly, and OAK is where I'd land before Franco (BF)
	1:51pm Funky16corners: Lou Bond!
	🛒 1:51pm Franco Twinkie: The fish cover was funny, but the peanut butter and jelly gate fold on Voulunteers was GREAT! My all time favorite rock centerfold.
	1:52pm chresti: @Granny- I laughed so hard, the best version of Miracles, IMO, a song I'm not very fond of
	1:56pm Michael 98145: mantra palooza
	1:56pm davefromtoronto: man you play some fantastically weird music.
	1:57pm listener james from westwood: Killer Music Emporium track!
	🛒 1:57pm Granny Spicy Tuna: This is why i love Hinky Dinky Time: a true appreciation for Nilsson!
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, guys.
	🛒 2:00pm Granny Spicy Tuna: UM: there was a teddy bear suit under the Gumby suit? Crazy kids! chresti: i have been cringing all week having that smarmy song stuck in my head
	2:03pm Doug Schulkind: Blue Sky Boys! My favorites! Adore them! Hello!
	2:03pm Parq: I thought I saw some sort of weird tuft in the back of the gumby suit. I wondered what that was about.
	2:03pm chresti: Granny-I have JA's caterwauling stuck in my head-I wonder, too, about the decision to sit down
	🛒 2:04pm Franco Twinkie: Granny, Miracles was really popular in the laundromats of San Francisco when it came out. I'm sure more that one hook up was arranged waiting for a dryer.
	🛒 2:06pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Nilsson's job in this world was to make people feel funny.
	🛒 2:07pm Granny Spicy Tuna: OK, who here is currently in the SF Bay Area? Me!
	2:08pm Dean: Me.
	🛒 2:11pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Who here is going to see The Space Lady tonight? YEAH!
	🛒 2:12pm Franco Twinkie: When we are in SF, which is frequently, we have a washer and dryer at our disposal, so I can no longer comment on the hot action doing the laundry.
	🛒 2:14pm Granny Spicy Tuna: In SF we now get our laundry done by drone.
	🛒 2:14pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello UM & HDTLand. Loved your Tullin' Sunday. By the way, did you find yourself sitting on any park benches in NY/JC? I won't dare ask anything about the rest of that line!
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! Only with the purest of intent. And thank you!
	🛒 2:16pm KevinfromBayRidge: Good but you know what they say about intentions!
	2:17pm dan: Grodeck Whipperjenny sounds like a rejected name for one of T.S. Eliot's Cats
	2:19pm Michael 98145: wonder if some people now do their laundry by Lyft ?
	2:20pm Jeff Golick: The album cover in the pop up player is...not matching.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Don't blame me.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: I definitely do not.
	2:21pm Dean: I blame Sir Tim Berners-Lee, as I do for most of my life's woes.
	2:22pm Michael 98145: (born-to-edit) Is that how they spelled 'existence' ...?
	2:23pm fleep: Sneaky, so-called "Listener fleep"greetings
	2:23pm dan: It's Danish Tom Petty
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Seriously. The porn was just to distract us while Google and Facebook took over.
	2:23pm doctorjazz: Pilli Villi? What a great track!
	2:24pm Uncle Michael: fleep! thanks for adopting the stream!
	2:26pm fleep: Stream Daddy say yeah, UM!
	2:26pm Uncle Michael: @Michael....yes.
	2:27pm chresti: we just throw our laundry in a Google bus, when we're in SF
	2:28pm Michael 98145: ( here's a Danish ska band that's kinda fun - teslamusicdenmark.bandcamp.com... )
	🛒 2:28pm Granny Spicy Tuna: hi, fleep! since you adopted the stream and i adopted UM, we should get together with those who adopted the other GTR DJs and have a party!
	2:29pm Dean: The reference to porn, which I eschew, reminds me of a joke I read yesterday in a NYT story about comedian Dave Attell. Attell asks a guy in the audience (who happens to be the byline) his snack-food preference. "When I said rice cracker, he responded, 'What’s your favorite porn — homework?'"
	2:30pm fleep: GST we must insure all the DJs get adopted, it would be a shame to have to put any of them down
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: that's funny
	🛒 2:32pm Granny Spicy Tuna: The only DJ i'm going to put down is JA for getting "Miracles" stuck in my head forever and ever. I can't get those lyrics out of my mind!!!!
	2:33pm dan: @Granny "Pretty please, with sugar on it"
	2:34pm Dean: Hum a few bars of Beethoven, say, 9th symphony, "Eroica," 5th symphony...it'll purge the Marty Balin pop.
	2:35pm Parq: Yeah, I hate "Miracles" too. I even mentioned that quietly as we were watching the H&M performance that night. Whaddaya gon' do?
	2:37pm Michael 98145: uh oh
	2:37pm Dominick: nice
	2:37pm Dean: There's a Laura Nyro tune on the LP from which the 5th Dimension tune up-list, too.
	🛒 2:37pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Dean" that's an interesting remedy. What works best for me is to crank up Klaus Nomi's "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" which somehow obliterates whatever earworm is tormenting me and then it obliterates itself. I gotta go do that soon.
	2:38pm dan: The late Cory Wells belts it out on this song.
	🛒 2:38pm Franco Twinkie: I am hearing 3DN with fresh ears today.
	2:38pm chresti: Michael 98145, any solar flares yet?
	🛒 2:39pm KevinfromBayRidge: Two Dog Day?
	2:39pm fleep: Two Dog Day Afternoon
	🛒 2:40pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I had a Two Cat Morning
	2:40pm dan: That's the 2nd time I thought it was Nina Simone
	2:40pm Dean: Tucan Night Threeza Crowd 10,000 Maniacs, Give or Take
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Sorry about the shitty mp3 on this Donnie Elbert. I'd have done better by you if I could have.
	🛒 2:42pm Franco Twinkie: I don't know the Klaus version of Ding Dong, but the original by The Fifth Estate will give you a rash that no topical ointment will get rid of.
	🛒 2:43pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Thanks for relieving some of the tedium of driving to LA. After the show I’m going to make my husband listen to Laura Nyro.
	2:44pm Michael 98145: why, yes, @chresti! glad you asked ... "GEOMAGNETIC STORM WARNING: NOAA forecasters say there is a 75% chance of geomagnetic storms on March 23rd when a coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to sideswipe Earth's magnetic field. Storm levels could reach category G2, which is moderately strong. During G2-class storms, auroras may be seen in northern-tier US states as far south as New York and Idaho." spaceweather.com
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie!
	🛒 2:44pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love the Fifth Estate version!
	🛒 2:45pm Franco Twinkie: Stone Soul Picnic and The Beads Of Sweat. Is that a band name, or what?
	2:46pm Doug Schulkind: Totally forgot to mention that David Dichelle and Continental Subway will be filling in for Give the Drummer Some next Friday.
	2:46pm Dean: There's another vague song,"Things I Wanna Do." I've been toying with constructing a reduced version of the English lexicon. Only use "it" or "them" for pronouns; "thing" for nouns; "do" for verbs. Maybe keep "is." "Things I Wanna Do" would be "Things It Is Do."
	2:47pm Dean: "I love you" = "It does it." Has a ring to it.
	2:48pm Jeff Golick: @Dean: I think Sean Penn already tried that. Didn't go well: www.theguardian.com...
	🛒 2:48pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, Is this was you do when your supposed to be filing books?
	2:49pm Dean: Maybe Sean Penn is just an unacknowledged Oulipo genius, hmmm? What are books, Franco?
	🛒 2:50pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Oulipian genius, indeed! We need more of those.
	🛒 2:51pm Franco Twinkie: That pile of square things I'm sitting on, I think.
	🛒 2:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I am an unlicensed 'Pataphysician
	2:52pm Michael 98145: Melancholy hits by the 101 Strings :)
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: I'm a former polymath professor.
	2:52pm Dean: Thank you again, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, for turning books into piles of square things.
	2:53pm Parq: Deejay Keihli!
	2:53pm Dean: Can you imagine having a degree in thermodynamics? Wouldn't that get confusing?
	2:53pm Michael 98145: thank you again, UM !

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from March 22, 2019

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:06pm Alex In Illinois: I did not know that Joplin had anything more than mining.
	12:07pm joe: @Michael98145 I showed that sign to the wife for the first time the last week. She felt it was very poor wording :)
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: James! Dave! Alex! joe!
	12:07pm Listening Out There: Animation illustrates your typical Trump cabinet member...
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: L.O.T.!
	12:09pm dan: @L.O.T. More like Oprah when she gave her entire audience cars.
	12:09pm Parq: Rawk.
	12:10pm Parq: Dan, Seven Second Delay capped that once by giving their entire audience DVDs of the Oprah segment. I still have mine.
	12:11pm Roberto: Whoa, I almost forgot to Hinky my Dinky!
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: Parq! Roberto!
	12:12pm joe: @UM I really like where all this has been going
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Can you tell me where it's going?!
	12:13pm Funky16corners: I like this, Unk. Have you heard any Flying Saucer Attack? Like this but way fuzzier
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: I've seen the film depicted in the GIF and it's taken me 15 minutes to google my way to the title. Time for a nap! Hi, @UM, & Hinkers.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: No, Larry. I'll seek it out.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Jeff! Don't leave us hangin'!
	12:15pm Jeff Golick: en.wikipedia.org... -- Miyazaki's first as director.
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Wow! I had no idea it was his.
	🛒 12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Michael! Are we floating down stream to piles of cash?
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: Franco!
	12:19pm Dean: I could use that dough. A new DAC caught my eye. Fully rigged it'll run ~$100K.
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	12:20pm joe: @UM No and that's why I like it
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: Uh huh.
	12:23pm Dean: Wanna know what the name of the original bar occupied by the first Trader Vic's used to be called? Hinky Dink's. https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/03/22/trader-vics-a-bastion-of-tiki-in-emeryville-started-as-a-one-room-beer-parlor-in-oakland
	12:24pm Lane Gray: Hey y'all
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, my saved search on eBay turns up a lot of memorabilia from there, Dean.
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Lane!
	12:24pm Dean: Jesus. "...what the name...used to be called"! Half awake here.
	12:26pm Jeff Golick: It all ties together.
	12:28pm Dean: Recently acquired a recording of Steve Hillage at MSG, '77, when Clive Bunker was drumming. He's a monster. That's the tour I got to hear. Opened for ELO!
	12:28pm dan: Luckily I got to see Jethro Tull before they called it quits. 2008 at Jones Beach during their 40th anniversary tour with Peter Frampton opening. Locomotive Breath was the last song they played.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: It was the last song I played too...to date.
	12:29pm Webhamster Henry: Lupin III is on his way to the Hinky Dinky.
	🛒 12:29pm Franco Twinkie: Well Okay, this. You were something last Sunday. You really project menace, you know that, right?
	12:30pm Listening Out There: And the hits keep on comin'...
	12:30pm dan: @Dean When it comes to drummers in Jethro Tull, Barrimore Barlow beats Clive Bunker.
	12:30pm joe: I started watching Lupin III a couple of weeks ago and got sidetracked. I wish I could remember what streaming service I was watching it on so I can go back and finish watching it.
	12:30pm doctorjazz: This has nothing on the Uncle Michael version!
	12:30pm Webhamster Henry: The pleasures plead guilty.
	12:31pm Uncle Menace: What is a Lupin III?
	12:31pm Funky16corners: Memories of Boy Scout Camp...
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Henry! Doc!
	12:32pm dan: How did we go from the so-called boy band of the day "Three Dog Night" to "One Direction"?
	12:32pm joe: I meant Lupin the Third.
	12:32pm Webhamster Henry: @Joe it's really good! I remember seeing it at the Film Forum's old HQ on Watts Street right before they moved. @Uncle Menace, check out Jeff Golick's link
	12:34pm joe: I've just started watching more Anime. I've found I have a real soft spot for 70's early 80's stuff.
	12:34pm Jeff Golick: head spinning
	12:34pm Dean: Bunker seems slightly out of his element in Hillage's band, which makes for an invigorating tension between Bunker's bluesy pummeling and Hillage & Co.'s psychedelic cool.
	12:34pm listener james from westwood: Dig hearing that full jingle!
	12:34pm Webhamster Henry: Hinky Dinky was in the Top Value Stamp system? Hmm! Here's an industrial tune about Plaid Stamps: jhhl.net...
	12:35pm rw: Did I just hear “bacon by the piece?”
	12:35pm dan: @James I'm used to hearing Shalamar cut right in the middle.
	12:36pm Lane Gray: Was our adoption attempt successful?
	12:36pm Funky16corners: It was...
	12:36pm sinner: .....here.
	12:37pm Dean: http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/84766
	12:37pm joe: And here comes the flood of links :) www.wfmu.org...
	12:39pm Dean: UM appears about 12 minutes into the last video.
	🛒 12:39pm Franco Twinkie: I implore all who did not watch the marathon talent extravaganza to put it on your weekend entertainment docket right now.
	12:42pm dan: This is real country music
	12:42pm Lane Gray: Gotta be Curly Chalker on that Hank
	12:44pm Funky16corners: Ahhhhhhh yes.
	12:44pm chresti: I was visiting JA just now, to congratulate him on his stellar rendition of the believe in miracles song
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Lane, did you email John Dalton about the adoption per the adoption page instructions? Granny may have beaten you to the punch.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Sinner! rw! Yes, Top Value, Henry. Yes, by the piece, rw.
	12:47pm doctorjazz: Live Dead, making me smile (even with Donna there
	12:47pm Jeff Moore: I feel Jeff Conklin's quietly smiling presence. Not to imply that he's the only one allowed to play the Dead...
	🛒 12:48pm Franco Twinkie: Doc, I know, Donna with her checkered slacks.
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: Jeff! You know I was just meeting Jeff C for the first time, post Hoof, yes?
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: My slacks go with my past.
	12:50pm Jeff Moore: I don't know that.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: You knew it now!
	12:51pm Jeff Moore: You are friend to all the Jeffs.
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Phil Lesh just played in the NY area sadly missed him this time.
	12:53pm Jeff Golick: It's true.
	12:53pm Jeff Golick: (re Jeff's comment)
	12:54pm chresti: Jeff, thanks for those marathon pics!
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, but keep all those freaking Geoffs the hell away from me.
	12:54pm Jeff Moore: You're welcome!
	12:57pm Jeff Moore: Michael, have you met Noise and Syrup Jeff M, and of course Jeff Sarge? Wondering how close you are to having met every darned Jeff.
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: I met Jeff M in 2018 and Sarge last Sunday.
	1:00pm dan: Here’s a question, which Face had the better voice, Steve Marriott or Rod Stewart?
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: ...Davidson's another.
	1:00pm joe: Living life in the Jeff Set
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: Saw Jeff D on Saturday...didn't meet him.
	1:01pm joe: @dan For the stuff Steve did he had the better voice for the stuff Rod did he had the better voice. :)
	1:03pm Parq: Seems strange to be listening to this kind of music without using the album cover to sift out the seeds.
	1:03pm dan: @joe I think Steve Marriott could have sung "Stay With Me" better than Rod Stewart.Even Eric Carmen (the American Steve Marriott) could have done a better job. Just my opinion
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: What if God and Superman had a fight?
	1:05pm Parq: Was Hal Blain on this 5th D track?
	🛒 1:05pm Brian in UK: @parq. Ha Ha. Double albums for special events.
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Let's just go with 'yes' Parq. Or....Google.
	1:06pm Parq: UM, you'd need an arena with really good insurance.
	🛒 1:06pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Huzzah! I just got the email confirming that i have adopted Uncle Michael for the year! Drinks are on the house.
	1:07pm Dean: Superman, meh. I fought him a couple months ago. He's a little wuss.
	🛒 1:08pm Brian in UK: Who is this God you speak of.
	1:08pm joe: @dan I think the issue there for me is that you take a song like Stay with Me I will always hear Rod Stewart singing that song. Marriott would have done a STELLAR version of the song but it would never invoke the same reaction that the version we all no does for me. So really the only way it would not be better for me is through the complete changing of history.
	1:09pm chresti: haha parq!@1:03
	1:09pm Dean: Indeed.
	1:10pm joe: @Parq I can't find specific mention of Hal but confirmation on the Wrecking Crew playing on it so I would be comfortable in saying yes.
	1:11pm chresti: Yay! Congratulations Granny and UM!
	🛒 1:11pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Thank you, cresti. I plan to take UM out for frozen custard this summer.
	1:12pm Dean: Drums, Hal Blaine: https://www.discogs.com/The-5th-Dimension-Individually-Collectively/release/2965453
	1:12pm joe: Discogs says yes
	1:12pm joe: Yeah what Dean said :)
	1:13pm dan: I thought this was Nina Simone singing.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! Granny!
	1:14pm Dean: Same here, dan. I'll take either Nina or Carmen.
	1:17pm chresti: love the Maytals
	1:18pm chresti: Hello Honey, is a favorite Maytals song
	🛒 1:19pm Franco Twinkie: Since I first heard Evil Ways, I've always wondered about Tina Jones and who knows who.
	1:19pm Parq: On Belock's Blaine tribute, Dennis quotes someone from the Knack as saying that he realized one day that 12 of his favorite drummers were Blaine. Similarly, I realized that virtually all of the drumming that made me love rock and roll as a kid came from that one guy. What a dynamo.
	1:20pm geezerette: Bonnie Banks, girl singer?
	🛒 1:21pm Franco Twinkie: Parq, That was Bruce Gary.
	1:21pm joe: Yeah it was Bruce Gray. I think he dropped the same quote when he was on M Shelly's show and had one of those Holy Shit he's right moments.
	🛒 1:21pm Granny Spicy Tuna: i know a male singer named Bonnie Banks. UM, i don't know what "BiUK" means?!?!?!
	1:21pm dan: UM, you need to do a show of bands that do not have a Wikipedia page such as Ginhouse.
	🛒 1:22pm Granny Spicy Tuna: wait, was that a listener name? i got horrible allergy symptoms today. hi, everyone
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: geezerette!
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: GST, BiUK is Brian in the UK.
	1:22pm joe: @dan what the hell am I going to do for 3 hours if he does that
	1:22pm geezerette: Granny, for real?
	🛒 1:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna: especially hi to Brian in UK, hee hee
	🛒 1:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna: geezerette: what for real? probably yes to whatever it is. my life is that way.
	1:23pm dan: @joe Listen to bands you've never heard of. I think it would be fascinating.
	1:24pm geezerette: Uncle Michael! You need your own stream!
	🛒 1:24pm Franco Twinkie: Granny, I feel your pain! This Spring is going to be a real motherfucker.
	🛒 1:24pm Granny Spicy Tuna: yes, i've adopted uncle michael, yes to frozen custard, yes to brain addled situation, yes to hello everyone!
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: geezer, this stream cools my toes just dandy.
	1:25pm Dean: Somebody needs to do a show of songs with vague lyrics, e.g., "How Do You Do What You Do to Me?," "The Thing," "It," etc.
	1:25pm geezerette: :D
	1:25pm dan: @Granny Spicy Tuna I have to get used to hearing UM say, "Listener Granny Spicy Tuna DJ"
	1:25pm joe: You are asking me to live my life with out rabbit holes. Woah I don't know I have to think that one over.
	🛒 1:26pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Franco Twinkie, i seriously feel like i've been bodyslammed by a luchador
	1:26pm holland oats: ALTABBA!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Holland!
	1:27pm davefromtoronto: it's a hit in any language!
	1:27pm joe: Does doing this song in French make it meta in some way?
	1:27pm Dean: Wow, that's a great band name, Meta-ABBA.
	🛒 1:28pm Franco Twinkie: Do you use an up the nose spray? It's made my life bearable at this time of the year. That and quitting smoking pot.
	🛒 1:28pm Granny Spicy Tuna: dan: i missed it if/when UM said something during the break. i've been crawling around gathering hot tea and soup and such. But what a thrill it is to be part of this wild and wacky WFMU family. The real question is: Am i UM's Granny or is UM my Uncle?
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: I'm my own grandpa.
	1:29pm dan: @UM How did I know you would respond that way.
	1:29pm Dominick: If Mitch Mitchel would have recorded Rock & Roll this would be it
	1:30pm Dominick: I meant Mitch Miller
	🛒 1:30pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I could imagine Uncle Michael doing a whole program of songs about family members— uncles, aunts, cousins, grandparents, parents, siblings… if he hasn't already!
	🛒 1:30pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Arthur Lee sing this at the Whisky a Go Go!
	🛒 1:31pm Brian in UK: Hi to Granny Spicy Tuna. Congratulations on your adoption.
	🛒 1:31pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Franco Twinkie, wow! That must've been a marvelous experience. I only saw him perform once, and it was unforgettable.
	1:32pm Dean: SFO has a display in Terminal 2 of Arhoolie Records and Down Home: https://arhoolie.org/sfo-museum-exhibit/ Is that cool or what?
	🛒 1:33pm Granny Spicy Tuna: BiUK, thank you. I had originally tried to adopt the entire GTDR stream, but that sneaky, so-called "Listener fleep" snapped it up.
	🛒 1:33pm Brian in UK: @Franco. Saw Mr Lee a few times but he never sang it. Never been to the Whskey either.
	1:35pm Dean: They'd have had a helluva time writing a song about one of my high school teachers, Mr. Bruzdowicz. Of course, we called him Mr. B, so maybe not.
	1:36pm Parq: Dean, didn't the Stones do that, "Dancing with Mr. B"? Wait...
	🛒 1:36pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Arthur Lee many times, but only once did he do that song. With a shit eating grin on his face, I might add.
	1:38pm chresti: I love songs with vague lyrics
	1:39pm Parq: Oh man, I haven't heard this great Kotke song in forever.
	1:40pm Dean: Kottke's coming to town in June.
	1:41pm Dominick: Great song by Paul Siebel, Never heard Kottke's version till now
	🛒 1:42pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, I saw him at Yoshi's in Oakland a few years ago. Is he there again?
	1:43pm Parq: Another one I love, this track from Bark, which is pretty much an augmented Hot Tuna line-up.
	1:43pm Dean: Freight & Salvage, even better! Going to hear Graham Parker at F&S next month. Hot Tuna played a few nights around New Year's Eve last year. Had to miss 'em.
	🛒 1:44pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Has anyone else had "Miracles" stuck in their head all week since the Hoof and Mouth hootenanny?
	🛒 1:44pm Brian in UK: Bark was that the cover with weed on it. No, maybe Long John Silver.
	🛒 1:45pm Franco Twinkie: Bark came in a brown paper bag.
	🛒 1:45pm Brian in UK: @Granny John Allen played it today.
	1:45pm joe: Bark was the one with the fish head
	🛒 1:46pm Granny Spicy Tuna: BiUK, JA is lucky i wasn't on the comments board. I need to punish him. Such a rascal!
	🛒 1:47pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Did he explain why they performed it sitting down? Maybe they should've had an old schoolmarm holding a yardstick between them?
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: I spent the duration of 'Miracles' arm an arm, swaying with Jim the Poet and Psychopath Jim. JtP was wearing a Gumby suit...over a teddy bear suit.
	1:48pm Parq: Missed opportunity when JA and Faye didn't quick-exit the stage under the cover of the dry ice fog (of which there seemed quite a lot that night).
	1:48pm chresti: Haven't been to SFO in years, Franco doesn't like to fly, and OAK is where I'd land before Franco (BF)
	1:51pm Funky16corners: Lou Bond!
	🛒 1:51pm Franco Twinkie: The fish cover was funny, but the peanut butter and jelly gate fold on Voulunteers was GREAT! My all time favorite rock centerfold.
	1:52pm chresti: @Granny- I laughed so hard, the best version of Miracles, IMO, a song I'm not very fond of
	1:56pm Michael 98145: mantra palooza
	1:56pm davefromtoronto: man you play some fantastically weird music.
	1:57pm listener james from westwood: Killer Music Emporium track!
	🛒 1:57pm Granny Spicy Tuna: This is why i love Hinky Dinky Time: a true appreciation for Nilsson!
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, guys.
	🛒 2:00pm Granny Spicy Tuna: UM: there was a teddy bear suit under the Gumby suit? Crazy kids! chresti: i have been cringing all week having that smarmy song stuck in my head
	2:03pm Doug Schulkind: Blue Sky Boys! My favorites! Adore them! Hello!
	2:03pm Parq: I thought I saw some sort of weird tuft in the back of the gumby suit. I wondered what that was about.
	2:03pm chresti: Granny-I have JA's caterwauling stuck in my head-I wonder, too, about the decision to sit down
	🛒 2:04pm Franco Twinkie: Granny, Miracles was really popular in the laundromats of San Francisco when it came out. I'm sure more that one hook up was arranged waiting for a dryer.
	🛒 2:06pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Nilsson's job in this world was to make people feel funny.
	🛒 2:07pm Granny Spicy Tuna: OK, who here is currently in the SF Bay Area? Me!
	2:08pm Dean: Me.
	🛒 2:11pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Who here is going to see The Space Lady tonight? YEAH!
	🛒 2:12pm Franco Twinkie: When we are in SF, which is frequently, we have a washer and dryer at our disposal, so I can no longer comment on the hot action doing the laundry.
	🛒 2:14pm Granny Spicy Tuna: In SF we now get our laundry done by drone.
	🛒 2:14pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello UM & HDTLand. Loved your Tullin' Sunday. By the way, did you find yourself sitting on any park benches in NY/JC? I won't dare ask anything about the rest of that line!
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! Only with the purest of intent. And thank you!
	🛒 2:16pm KevinfromBayRidge: Good but you know what they say about intentions!
	2:17pm dan: Grodeck Whipperjenny sounds like a rejected name for one of T.S. Eliot's Cats
	2:19pm Michael 98145: wonder if some people now do their laundry by Lyft ?
	2:20pm Jeff Golick: The album cover in the pop up player is...not matching.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Don't blame me.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: I definitely do not.
	2:21pm Dean: I blame Sir Tim Berners-Lee, as I do for most of my life's woes.
	2:22pm Michael 98145: (born-to-edit) Is that how they spelled 'existence' ...?
	2:23pm fleep: Sneaky, so-called "Listener fleep"greetings
	2:23pm dan: It's Danish Tom Petty
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Seriously. The porn was just to distract us while Google and Facebook took over.
	2:23pm doctorjazz: Pilli Villi? What a great track!
	2:24pm Uncle Michael: fleep! thanks for adopting the stream!
	2:26pm fleep: Stream Daddy say yeah, UM!
	2:26pm Uncle Michael: @Michael....yes.
	2:27pm chresti: we just throw our laundry in a Google bus, when we're in SF
	2:28pm Michael 98145: ( here's a Danish ska band that's kinda fun - teslamusicdenmark.bandcamp.com... )
	🛒 2:28pm Granny Spicy Tuna: hi, fleep! since you adopted the stream and i adopted UM, we should get together with those who adopted the other GTR DJs and have a party!
	2:29pm Dean: The reference to porn, which I eschew, reminds me of a joke I read yesterday in a NYT story about comedian Dave Attell. Attell asks a guy in the audience (who happens to be the byline) his snack-food preference. "When I said rice cracker, he responded, 'What’s your favorite porn — homework?'"
	2:30pm fleep: GST we must insure all the DJs get adopted, it would be a shame to have to put any of them down
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: that's funny
	🛒 2:32pm Granny Spicy Tuna: The only DJ i'm going to put down is JA for getting "Miracles" stuck in my head forever and ever. I can't get those lyrics out of my mind!!!!
	2:33pm dan: @Granny "Pretty please, with sugar on it"
	2:34pm Dean: Hum a few bars of Beethoven, say, 9th symphony, "Eroica," 5th symphony...it'll purge the Marty Balin pop.
	2:35pm Parq: Yeah, I hate "Miracles" too. I even mentioned that quietly as we were watching the H&M performance that night. Whaddaya gon' do?
	2:37pm Michael 98145: uh oh
	2:37pm Dominick: nice
	2:37pm Dean: There's a Laura Nyro tune on the LP from which the 5th Dimension tune up-list, too.
	🛒 2:37pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Dean" that's an interesting remedy. What works best for me is to crank up Klaus Nomi's "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" which somehow obliterates whatever earworm is tormenting me and then it obliterates itself. I gotta go do that soon.
	2:38pm dan: The late Cory Wells belts it out on this song.
	🛒 2:38pm Franco Twinkie: I am hearing 3DN with fresh ears today.
	2:38pm chresti: Michael 98145, any solar flares yet?
	🛒 2:39pm KevinfromBayRidge: Two Dog Day?
	2:39pm fleep: Two Dog Day Afternoon
	🛒 2:40pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I had a Two Cat Morning
	2:40pm dan: That's the 2nd time I thought it was Nina Simone
	2:40pm Dean: Tucan Night Threeza Crowd 10,000 Maniacs, Give or Take
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Sorry about the shitty mp3 on this Donnie Elbert. I'd have done better by you if I could have.
	🛒 2:42pm Franco Twinkie: I don't know the Klaus version of Ding Dong, but the original by The Fifth Estate will give you a rash that no topical ointment will get rid of.
	🛒 2:43pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Thanks for relieving some of the tedium of driving to LA. After the show I’m going to make my husband listen to Laura Nyro.
	2:44pm Michael 98145: why, yes, @chresti! glad you asked ... "GEOMAGNETIC STORM WARNING: NOAA forecasters say there is a 75% chance of geomagnetic storms on March 23rd when a coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to sideswipe Earth's magnetic field. Storm levels could reach category G2, which is moderately strong. During G2-class storms, auroras may be seen in northern-tier US states as far south as New York and Idaho." spaceweather.com
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie!
	🛒 2:44pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love the Fifth Estate version!
	🛒 2:45pm Franco Twinkie: Stone Soul Picnic and The Beads Of Sweat. Is that a band name, or what?
	2:46pm Doug Schulkind: Totally forgot to mention that David Dichelle and Continental Subway will be filling in for Give the Drummer Some next Friday.
	2:46pm Dean: There's another vague song,"Things I Wanna Do." I've been toying with constructing a reduced version of the English lexicon. Only use "it" or "them" for pronouns; "thing" for nouns; "do" for verbs. Maybe keep "is." "Things I Wanna Do" would be "Things It Is Do."
	2:47pm Dean: "I love you" = "It does it." Has a ring to it.
	2:48pm Jeff Golick: @Dean: I think Sean Penn already tried that. Didn't go well: www.theguardian.com...
	🛒 2:48pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, Is this was you do when your supposed to be filing books?
	2:49pm Dean: Maybe Sean Penn is just an unacknowledged Oulipo genius, hmmm? What are books, Franco?
	🛒 2:50pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Oulipian genius, indeed! We need more of those.
	🛒 2:51pm Franco Twinkie: That pile of square things I'm sitting on, I think.
	🛒 2:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna: I am an unlicensed 'Pataphysician
	2:52pm Michael 98145: Melancholy hits by the 101 Strings :)
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: I'm a former polymath professor.
	2:52pm Dean: Thank you again, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, for turning books into piles of square things.
	2:53pm Parq: Deejay Keihli!
	2:53pm Dean: Can you imagine having a degree in thermodynamics? Wouldn't that get confusing?
	2:53pm Michael 98145: thank you again, UM !
	2:54pm dan: By the look of this song title, it's time to go. Thanks UM
	🛒 2:55pm Granny Spicy Tuna: The Pidge opened his show yesterday with "Albatross" and i got really disoriented.
	🛒 2:56pm Franco Twinkie: Good one, Michael. Time to go wrap something in a tortilla.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: GST, he has no idea it's my out theme.
	2:58pm chresti: Thanks Michael 98145 and Uncle Michael!
	🛒 2:59pm Granny Spicy Tuna: UM, i believe he reads all of the comments, so he knows now!
	2:59pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, UM!
	2:59pm joe: Thanks UM great show. I'm going to go hang out in the Jungle Room for a bit.
	🛒 2:59pm Granny Spicy Tuna: Thanks for all the great tunes, UM, and double-Nilsson! YAY!
	3:02pm Parq: Another great one, UM. Glad you got home safe and you had fun while you were here.
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, everyone!
	3:03pm Jeff Golick: Byeeee!
	🛒 3:52pm Brian in UK: Back from the kitchen. Where is everybody. Oh, yeah our clocks change forward weekend after next. Thanks Uncle.
