Are you gonna have this radio show here, or are you ordering Togo?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:54pm Doug Schulkind:

Can't think of anything to else say? Or Kenya?

Hi ndbob! I'm not really here (I know, I know) will try & pop in & out

Did you miss me, Doug? Did I make you Sierra Leone?
(really stretching here)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:10pm Gary:

@Jeff, you're going to have to translate that for the peanut gallery over here ... :-/
Avatar 6:10pm hyde:

I never should have mentioned African nations and puns, perhaps?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:10pm Doug Schulkind:

My favorite joke of all time: What is black and white and red and can't fit through a revolving door?

Answer if we make the goal!!!
Avatar 6:10pm Holly in NC:

Lonnie & Floyd new to me, and that's the only song I was able to find by them via very quick, cursory slsk search - anyone know anything?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:10pm Doug Schulkind:

It's all your fault, hyde.
Avatar 6:12pm Holly in NC:

@Doug - That is a SICK, SICK joke!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar 6:12pm ndbob:

Tiny Topsy made several great records
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:12pm Caryn:

I feel like branching out into cities and trying some real stretch with a Ouagadougou pun.

@Doug story of my life!

@Gary: was going for a lonely/Leone thing...ugh...

@Caryn - Soweto you waiting for?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:20pm OuagaDOUGou:

@Caryn
I think I sprained something reading Ouagadougou!

I've got a terrible MS-DOS joke from probably 25 years ago:
Q. What do you get when Lee Iaccoca gets bitten by Dracula?
A. AUTOEXEC.BAT
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:22pm Caryn:

@Stanley: It's such a stretch, and so bad, I feel like I'd need those WFMU rolling papers and... stuff... to go through with it. But might as well go through with it. I mean, Ouagadougou?
*ducks and covers*
Avatar 6:22pm hyde:

@Jeff ack! I will forvere be haunted by this tragic misstep.

@ngh good luck!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:22pm Caryn:

@listener james: hah!
Avatar 6:25pm ndbob:

@james that's pretty great!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:29pm Doug Schulkind:

Apologies if I'm missing any brilliant and wise commentary! My co-host (one of my cats) decided not to help out, so I am extra busy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30pm Doug Schulkind:

Remember: WHAT IS BLACK AND WHITE AND RED AND CAN'T FIT THROUGH A REVOLVING DOOR??


Answer: When we make the goal.
Avatar 6:31pm hyde:

@Doug first mistake: trusting a cat
Avatar 6:31pm northguineahills:

I got a call back today after sending a resume yesterday. I believe it's the same dept I used to work for (different location) before being furloughed, it would leave a wee bit of irony if that's the case
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:31pm listener james from westwood:

Cats will turn on a dime like that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:33pm Caryn:

Hmm, from my personal experience, a cat's "help" usually amounts to sitting on whatever you are trying to use, so I kinda feel like your cat opting out might turn out to make things run more smoothly. Unless the cat moves to actually actively hindering things.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:33pm listener james from westwood:

Good on ya, NGH. If you're rehired, see if you can pick up where you left off for any benefits (e.g., total years of service for vacation days/benefits vesting).
Avatar 6:34pm glenn:

well, after they look at the dime with disdain and groom themselves first.
Avatar 6:35pm Holly in NC:

@ljfw - love your joke

@glenn - and then hairball on it
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:36pm Doug Schulkind:

@Caryn
I have one cat the likes to warm herself on my external hard drive. I guess she keeps it from falling over.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:36pm listener james from westwood:

A friend (a dog person) posted a while back that the family cat upped his game from his usual hairball horking by puking into a floor-mounted heating duct. My friend just put her head down and started crying. Can cats smile?
Avatar 6:37pm glenn:

speaking of which - www.incrediblethings.com...
Avatar 6:38pm hyde:

that's zeno's paradox!
Avatar 6:38pm northguineahills:

Thanks James, I believe if it works out, the benefits will restart where I left off (the subcontractor put everything on hold until at least July[coincidentally, same subcontractor])
Avatar 6:39pm Holly in NC:

@Glenn - I LOVE that clip, but it also makes ME queasy. Power of suggestion ;-)

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm Caryn:

@glenn: oh man, just the diatribe underneath the video about coworkes and Tropical Skittles had entertainment value.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:40pm listener james from westwood:

I don't like seeing 47%. It reminds me of that clownzo Romney. Flush it, crush it, burn it, break it!
Avatar 6:40pm northguineahills:

ok, Doug and DrummerSomites, I'm off for nom nom time. will be back for Jesse.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:41pm Jeff Golick:

As for animal vids: currently have "squirrel attempts to hide nuts in dog's fur" on repeat: youtu.be...

I swore I wasn't Ghana make a pun...!
Hey Doug and Drummers!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:41pm listener james from westwood:

Did DJ Food do that huge audio survey of the 20th century from a while back? I think I heard part of it on the Re/Mixology show. Or am I going oobatz'? (Note: It could be both.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:42pm Matt from Springfield:

@LJFW: Wuh oh, 53% just keeps reminding me of that! ;)
Avatar 6:42pm glenn:

also re: squirrels www.incrediblethings.com...
Avatar 6:42pm Holly in NC:

@ljfw - One of my 3 cats is a nervous eater (should've named her Loretta!) and she has puked in several ducts over her surprisinglyunshortened lifetime.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:43pm Jeff Golick:

>>>> bows down to glenn <<<<
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:43pm listener james from westwood:

Yes, I believe I am thinking of the same DJ Food, here featured on the mighty Ubuweb: www.ubu.com...
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:43pm Gary:

Yay Harafin
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:44pm listener james from westwood:

@Holly: Nerves may have had something to do with it. I don't think the family had been in the house long. The cat may not have settled in yet.
Avatar 6:44pm glenn:

i know, right?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:45pm Jeff Golick:

Ok, off to feed the cat.
Oh, and the kids, too, I guess.

Rock on, Doug, and keep those pledges rolling in for the goodness that WFMU sends out into the atmosphere! And for the punchlines! We really need the eggs!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:46pm Caryn:

I'll segue from animal vids via the YT animal vid to just YT vids. I keep watching this on a loop (just makes me smile): www.youtube.com...

There is a Kenzo-shaped hole in my heart at 2pm EST every Wednesday.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:48pm listener james from westwood:

I'll be flying to Switzerland to see a specialist about it in May.
Avatar 6:49pm Holly in NC:

I still have a Charlie-sized hole. Is Charlie OK?

Same hole here james....

Kenzo.... Happy to see you've got a premium. I'm looking forward to it. Yours too, Doug.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:49pm listener james from westwood:

Charlie pledged to Tony earlier today! And I concur; love his show. I use the present tense emphatically for that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:51pm Matt from Springfield:

THAT'S OUR HITLER!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:51pm Doug Schulkind:

Charlie will be back!

Greetings to you, cklequ!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:51pm Caryn:

@Jeff: Some of my relatives, who like to go a little extreme and creative when hiding eggs for our easter egg hunts, would salute that squirrel.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:54pm listener james from westwood:

Doug, the trouble is, this now sounds like a Kenny G show!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:55pm cklequ:

Some of my favorite shows are Kenny G shows....
Avatar 6:56pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

Yup, I have a premium this year: wfmu.org...
Avatar 6:56pm ndbob:

excellent pledge show Doug!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:56pm listener james from westwood:

Speaking of Kenny G, seeing as he's tight with the Commander in Chief, maybe he can get us a little pledge from 1600 Penn Ave?
