	♥ 8:37pm Aitch: Sunny morning but freezing here, couldn't be bothered getting up.
	8:38pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @8:37 Hotter than hell here!
	♥ 8:41pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Light a Fire in my Heart" by "Sister Paul" Sounds like Sparks, but in french?
	8:42pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @8:41 It's a Japanese band. Really underground stuff.
	8:54pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mike Rogers @8:42 Oh, I remember now, Sister Paul plays in a famous UK band.... bUt I can't recall the name. Doctors of madness or something like that.
	♥ 9:00pm Aitch: put the panties down or I'll shoot
	♥ 9:02pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Mike and Aitch and future others
	♥ 9:04pm coelacanth∅: (actually tuned in sporadically for a while here)
	9:05pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:02 Colelacantho san! Thanks!
	9:06pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @9:00 That was a long news story, but it has so many bizarre twists, I had to read them all.
	♥ 9:07pm Aitch: Howdy coelacanth∅, welcome to Sunday morning
	♥ 9:07pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Something Slipped Through My Window" by "the Routes" A lot of their stuff is good, must check them out properly
	♥ 9:08pm WR: 今日は
	9:09pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @9:08 何ですか？（。。　is what?)
	9:10pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @9:08 Hi WR san!
	♥ 9:14pm WR: My avatar pic? Coney Island
	9:15pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @9:14 Being a good daddy and talking the fam out!!!!??? Good on you!!!
	♥ 9:17pm WR: Oh, my fragmented Japanese. Sorry.
	9:17pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @9:17 Nah, you get good by practicing. Well done.
	9:18pm Ted: Hi Mike san and all. The big news here is Hurricane Hilary is supposed to hit Southern California soon.
	9:19pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Ted @9:18 Hey! I saw that! Is it really called Hillary? Is that for real?
	♥ 9:21pm WR: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:17 I've shameed my family (I showed what I wrote and they just laughed) so now I must do the dishes and clean the kitchen by myself. Back later.
	9:23pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @9:21 Oh, the sufferings of language study.
	9:23pm Ted: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:19 Have not looked into it, but I'm guessing the name Hillary with 2 L's has already been used before for an Atlantic Coast storm.
	9:25pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Ted @9:23 Really? Come to think of it (and I've never thought about it before) but won't they start running out of names someday? In Japan, they just give them numbers.... There's no personality. I ain't a number!!!!
	9:32pm Ted: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:25 Upon first glances, it appears they both recycle and retire names for the Atlantic Coast. www.nhc.noaa.gov...
	♥ 9:32pm coelacanth∅: if they run out of names, ever, they're sadly narrow in their scope. i mean, in the extreme unlikelyhood they run out of english-speaking culture names there's no shortage of japanese, javanese, zimbabwe, ugandan, peruvian, icelandic, sequoian. . . . . . all of which exist in english-speaking cultures to some degree as well and would eventually be "normal" english names.
	9:33pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:32 Dragon Ball Z!!!!
	♥ 9:35pm Aitch: Cyclone Sheena
	9:35pm Mike Rogers: They could sell the names and earn revenue!
	♥ 9:35pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:33 haha! is that a name?
	♥ 9:35pm Aitch: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:33 Is Ken coming in to take over today?
	9:36pm Mike Rogers: This Hurricane is brought to you buy WFMU "Sheena!"
	♥ 9:36pm Aitch: Typhoon Tammy
	9:37pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:35 Cartoon character!
	♥ 9:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:35 i'm surprised they haven't done that... "have a hurricane named after yourself, $1999.95"
	9:38pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @9:35 Yeah. Ken awaits in the wings!
	9:39pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:37 They could start selling names for everything! The seasons, airplanes, ships, baseball teams, you name it!
	♥ 9:39pm Aitch: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:37 Hurricane Aitch has a certain ring to it, but we call them cyclones
	♥ 9:40pm coelacanth∅: see that dogwood tree? that's a Mike Rogers Dogwood.
	9:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @9:39 Cyclone Aitch sounds like a pro boxer!
	9:42pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:40 You know, we've might have stumbled upon an idea to balance the budget!!!!
	♥ 9:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @9:39 even better, they can double the revenue! this storm is Hurricane Coelacanth/Cyclone Aitch!
	♥ 9:42pm Aitch: Typhoon Mike
	9:43pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @9:42 Wasn't that Mike Tyson's early nickname or something like that?
	9:44pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:42 We're geniuses!!!! It's so simple!
	♥ 9:45pm coelacanth: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:43 - before he became "Hungry Mike"?
	9:45pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:40 People would be pissin all over it!
	9:46pm Ted: ↳ Song: "Daydream" by "Courettes" I complimented somebody today on their Sonny & Cher t-shirt. Might be something you see in Shimokitazawa, but not now in the U.S.
	♥ 9:46pm coelacanth∅: nah, just at the base...balancing the pH of the soil for ya!
	9:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Ted @9:46 Yeah. not rare in Japan.
	9:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:46 Good point. Showing the tree some "loving!"
	♥ 9:48pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mike Rogers @9:47 haha
	9:51pm mochy: あつい！
	9:52pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @9:51 Hi Mochy san!
	9:53pm mochy: 少しドリンクタイム
	9:55pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @9:53 Ha!Ha! Ha! かんぱい！
	9:56pm mochy: 仕事もどります。 kenさんによろしくです！
	9:57pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @9:56 はい！
	♥ 9:59pm Aitch: Thanks Mike, hi Ken.
	9:59pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @9:59 Thanks!!!!!
	9:59pm Ken Nishikawa: Hi, Aichi!
	10:00pm Mike Rogers: OK. You are here, Ken! I will skillfully fadeout now!
	10:01pm Mike Rogers: Oh, F it. Only 50 seconds more.... Hold your horses!!!
	10:01pm Mike Rogers: Wow! That was perfect!!!
	10:02pm Ken Nishikawa: Brilliant!
	♥ 10:06pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Mike! hi Ken!
	10:08pm Ken Nishikawa: Hello coelacanth!
	10:08pm Mike Rogers: Man! It is so hot! You know, Ken, I took my son trout fishing at that place where we shot the YOKO ONO stuff. It was almost cold enough for a sweater there!
	10:10pm Mike Rogers: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:06 Thanks Coelacantho san!
	10:11pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:08 Seriously? It's not high up on the mountain, is it?
	10:12pm Mr Fab: Hi Mike 'n' Ken! It's Sat evening here, but helping my wife with her work, so she can get caught up. Carry on!
	10:13pm Mike Rogers: Well, it's up in the mountains. And there isn't anything around there at all. Very bizarre to go off the main road and head to the trout fishing area. it's like a different planet. I can't believe such a place exists an hour away from Tokyo.
	10:14pm Ken Nishikawa: Hi Mr. Fab! Cheers!
	10:14pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:13 That i pretty amazing.
	10:14pm Mike Rogers: Hi Mr. Fab!
	10:15pm Mike Rogers: Okinawa music is cool!
	10:17pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:12 Oh, and after you're done, you can do the dishes and the laundry... and wash the car!!!!.
	10:18pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:15 Yes it is - I saw Shoukichi Kina from Okinawa live when he came to LA. And bought his album that David Byrne's label released.
	10:19pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:18 Wow! I've never seen Shouikichi Kina!!!!
	10:19pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mr Fab @10:18 Did you? He is one of the best, if not the best, from the little island! Love his music.
	10:20pm Mr Fab: Yeah, it was a great show. The album only hinted at his talent.
	10:21pm Mr Fab: Aren't Shonen Knife from Okinawa?
	10:22pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:21 Osaka!
	10:22pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mr Fab @10:20 I envy you. I've never seen him live - except on YouTube. I nearly saw him last year.
	10:24pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:22 Oops, getting my "O" places mixed up.
	10:25pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:24 I go to Okinawa every year.... Yet, I meet few people from Okinawa.... It seems everyone is from Osaka!
	♥ 10:26pm Aitch: Busy doing stuff, enjoying the sounds
	10:29pm Mike Rogers: I thought a Fugu was a puffer fish!
	10:31pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:29 Yes. And potentially lethal fish to eat!
	10:32pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Ken Nishikawa @10:31 Yeah, Japan eats risky stuff all the time.
	10:33pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:32 Kamikaze Dining!
	10:34pm Mike Rogers: I heard the eating improperly prepared pufferfish can be a particularly excrutiating death.... I always pass on that. BUT! I have eaten it three times.
	10:36pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:34 Well all those sharp prongs from when they puff themselves up do look pretty unappetizing.
	10:36pm Mike Rogers: Pufferfish rock!
	10:37pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:36 Wicked!
	10:38pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:36 I ate it, but that was at a REALLY expensive restaurant. Generally speaking, I think eating any sushi outside of Japan is very risky.
	10:39pm Mike Rogers: Remember when we went to London and you friends took us to that high class Japanese restaurant, Ken? And we walked in and a caucasian guy was making sushi? That freaked me out.
	♥ 10:40pm Aitch: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:38 Fine fish here Mike, but the sushi chefs are mostly Korean
	10:41pm Mike Rogers: Guys, it takes like ten years to get a license in japan to make sushi. I know guys who came here and worked for 6 months and then went back to the USA and opened a sushi restaurant. Of course, I went there, but refrained from eating sushi.
	♥ 10:41pm Aitch: No way I'd eat Sushi in England
	10:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @10:41 Smart guy! And good self-preservation.
	10:43pm Mike Rogers: I went to Seatlle and ate at a "Japanese" restaurant. While waiting there, I overheard the kitchen and staff all talking to each other in Korean. No sushi for me there! So I ordered "Tempura" but it wasn't tempura, it was just a fried fish...
	10:45pm Mr Fab: We get some odd Japanese food here like shrimp-flavored french fries. Why someone would want that, i don't know, but there it is. I did like the sake martini I had at one Japanese restaurant.
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:45 Sake Martini???? Wow! A culinary adventure!
	10:49pm Mike Rogers: Shrimp flavored potato chips are popular here with the kids.... So that's probably where the french fries came from. But, yeah, that's a bit bizarre.
	10:53pm Mike Rogers: Mr. Fab, you bring the entire posse here and ken and I will take you to some fantastic places.... Of course, Ken will pay! Ha! Ha! Ha! (No, but great food is cheap here. No tipping either.)
	10:56pm Ken Nishikawa: Eating out is very cheap in Japan right now, that's for sure.
	♥ 10:59pm WR: Laters Mike, Aitch, Ken, Mr Fab, all.
	11:00pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @10:59 Se ya WR san!!!
	11:01pm Ken Nishikawa: Good night, everyone! Thank you for listening to the show!!!!
	♥ 11:01pm Aitch: Thanks Mike and Ken
	11:02pm Mike Rogers: Thanks Ken! Thanks Aitch san! Mr. Fab!
	♥ 11:03pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Ken! Thanks Mike!

	10:25pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:24 I go to Okinawa every year.... Yet, I meet few people from Okinawa.... It seems everyone is from Osaka!
	♥ 10:26pm Aitch: Busy doing stuff, enjoying the sounds
	10:29pm Mike Rogers: I thought a Fugu was a puffer fish!
	10:31pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:29 Yes. And potentially lethal fish to eat!
	10:32pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Ken Nishikawa @10:31 Yeah, Japan eats risky stuff all the time.
	10:33pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:32 Kamikaze Dining!
	10:34pm Mike Rogers: I heard the eating improperly prepared pufferfish can be a particularly excrutiating death.... I always pass on that. BUT! I have eaten it three times.
	10:36pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:34 Well all those sharp prongs from when they puff themselves up do look pretty unappetizing.
	10:36pm Mike Rogers: Pufferfish rock!
	10:37pm Ken Nishikawa: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:36 Wicked!
	10:38pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:36 I ate it, but that was at a REALLY expensive restaurant. Generally speaking, I think eating any sushi outside of Japan is very risky.
	10:39pm Mike Rogers: Remember when we went to London and you friends took us to that high class Japanese restaurant, Ken? And we walked in and a caucasian guy was making sushi? That freaked me out.
	♥ 10:40pm Aitch: ↳ Mike Rogers @10:38 Fine fish here Mike, but the sushi chefs are mostly Korean
	10:41pm Mike Rogers: Guys, it takes like ten years to get a license in japan to make sushi. I know guys who came here and worked for 6 months and then went back to the USA and opened a sushi restaurant. Of course, I went there, but refrained from eating sushi.
	♥ 10:41pm Aitch: No way I'd eat Sushi in England
	10:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @10:41 Smart guy! And good self-preservation.
	10:43pm Mike Rogers: I went to Seatlle and ate at a "Japanese" restaurant. While waiting there, I overheard the kitchen and staff all talking to each other in Korean. No sushi for me there! So I ordered "Tempura" but it wasn't tempura, it was just a fried fish...
	10:45pm Mr Fab: We get some odd Japanese food here like shrimp-flavored french fries. Why someone would want that, i don't know, but there it is. I did like the sake martini I had at one Japanese restaurant.
	10:46pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @10:45 Sake Martini???? Wow! A culinary adventure!
	10:49pm Mike Rogers: Shrimp flavored potato chips are popular here with the kids.... So that's probably where the french fries came from. But, yeah, that's a bit bizarre.
	10:53pm Mike Rogers: Mr. Fab, you bring the entire posse here and ken and I will take you to some fantastic places.... Of course, Ken will pay! Ha! Ha! Ha! (No, but great food is cheap here. No tipping either.)
	10:56pm Ken Nishikawa: Eating out is very cheap in Japan right now, that's for sure.
	♥ 10:59pm WR: Laters Mike, Aitch, Ken, Mr Fab, all.
	11:00pm Mike Rogers: ↳ WR @10:59 Se ya WR san!!!
	11:01pm Ken Nishikawa: Good night, everyone! Thank you for listening to the show!!!!
	♥ 11:01pm Aitch: Thanks Mike and Ken
	11:02pm Mike Rogers: Thanks Ken! Thanks Aitch san! Mr. Fab!
	♥ 11:03pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Ken! Thanks Mike!
