	1:55pm egould: I had tacos at White Duck in Asheville, NC. Pork belly, bbq carnitas, and a fried chicken blt taco. Damn they were good.
	1:56pm morphe' y Simon: Having 1 little quesadilla later = actually a sincronizada = Buffala mozzarella cremini, salsa verde and 1/2 avocado repanado = not guacamole ... getting hungry but not hangry ....
	♥ 1:56pm drr: The tacos are molting right now; it's the season.
	🌮 ♥ 1:57pm Bruce S.: Yeah Those Cyclones Games are great, Have a Great Time @ dave miss
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: dave miss, a friend invited us to that! We have been before. It's ... definitely a thing. A city full of actors and people trained in stage combat, but they hand light sabers to the concession staff and grounds crew and throw some robes on them for the big Jedi melee at the end for some reason. Fun, though! I'm leading a canoe trip this afternoon and can't make it to the game.
	1:57pm Hubig Pie: I havin a Spam™ taquito
	1:58pm egould: Is that a fresh made lunkhead, Handy? Or a leftover from yesterday? Raising a bourbon and Perrier to you, dude! And to all you other dudes and dudettes. And everyone in between. Cheers!!

	🌮 ♥ 2:00pm Bruce S.: The Cyclones Make it alot of fun to go to a game
	♥ 2:01pm dave miss: Wow, one little taco showed up next to my name in the chat… Coincidence?
	♥ 2:01pm Handy Haversack: Lunkheads are of necessity from the day before -- otherwise it's just a drink!™ Cheers! Fantastic, dave miss!
	2:02pm P-90: And there’s no sassy like “unmistakably” sassy
	2:04pm P-90: Rex wins “Quote of the Week” hands down for “I was BORN wanting tacos”
	♥ 2:04pm drr: Yeah, sounds like a good time. We don't have baseball anymore, but I found out Kenner LA has a planetarium with themed laser light shows on Friday nights. NYC, eat your laser-lovin' heart out.
	🌮 ♥ 2:05pm Bruce S.: I Heard That Gerbers Was Coming out with a Taco Flavored Baby Food
	♥ 2:06pm dave miss: Some August laser Floyd would be awesome
	2:07pm timmy c. from brooklyn: Moooo

	🌮 ♥ 2:13pm Bruce S.: Yes @ Mailman Tom, They answered before it Rang!
	♥ 2:14pm DjLorraine: I added cilantro to salsa and the first organic yellow corn chip out da bag was shaped like a taco. Coincidence or WFMU magic?
	2:15pm egould: You are blowing my mind DJLorraine.
	🌮 ♥ 2:16pm The Butterman: About to have burritos for mom-in-law’s 72 birthday. Does that count? Prolly not.
	♥ 2:17pm Franco Twinkie: I just smooshed some avocado on a corn tortilla and it looked like, like, like a big green splat.
	♥ 2:17pm DjLorraine: Twink! Eeee!
	♥ 2:18pm Franco Twinkie: Lerlaine!
	2:18pm P-90: I rarely get to Los Angeles any more but when I do, literally my first destination is Tito’s Tacos in Culver City.
	2:18pm Brez: This is the perfect excursion, cuz I'm feeling' like I want to go nowhere...Thanks, Rex!
	♥ 2:19pm Franco Twinkie: No offence P-90, but I don't get the cultish thingy about Tito's
	2:20pm P-90: “Former Ike-ette” a distinguished and very exclusive club
	🌮 ♥ 2:20pm The Butterman: C’mon Franco, bring on the anthropomorphism! Can’t you manage to see screaming face in the green splotch?
	♥ 2:21pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, I'll make another one and look for a face.
	2:21pm P-90: @Franco: I haven’t been there in a few years, the quality may have slipped?
	2:22pm Joeybug69: Kind of a poor man’s Jay Hawkins??
	♥ 2:22pm dave miss: @Franco…. just wait for the edible to kick in… You’ll see the face
	♥ 2:22pm Handy Haversack: Wait -- this is in English! Nooooooo!
	♥ 2:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's an important market Joeybug69...
	♥ 2:23pm Franco Twinkie: I'm an east sider, we are a very fussy bunch of taco snobs.
	♥ 2:24pm drr: ...Joeybug, that implies SJH is a wealthy man's Bob Lee.
	2:24pm Joeybug69: Believe me, I’m a conspicuous consumer.
	♥ 2:24pm DjLorraine: Grocery list: haas avocados 💚 - ✔️
	♥ 2:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Franco - I bet you can eat a very large burrito with no mess even. Kinda skills. +
	🌮 ♥ 2:25pm Bruce S.: Cmon baby lets do the bug, cmon baby give me a hug
	♥ 2:25pm Franco Twinkie: Yes indeed.
	2:26pm P-90: Believe it or not kids, as far/fetched as this sounds, once upon a time the Jack in the Box joints had something they called a “Super Taco” which was damn good.
	♥ 2:28pm Franco Twinkie: Of course. In high school Jack In The Box was THE place. But that was WAY long ago.
	♥ 2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...my Santa Barbara memories (I was already veggie) : img1.10bestmedia.com... - with a fairly giant Horchata. All for cheap - !!
	♥ 2:30pm Franco Twinkie: That's such a beautiful picture RR. The platonic ideal of a burrito, no?
	♥ 2:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...of course starting with all the chips & red / green salsa you can eat (not 'extra' for the love of HeyZeus almighty)...
	2:32pm P-90: For a second instead of “buddy-seat sitters” I thought I heard him say “buddy-seat sinners” (which I actually like better)
	♥ 2:32pm Franco Twinkie: Super Rica?
	♥ 2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cuca's !
	♥ 2:33pm Franco Twinkie: Ah, Cuca's!!!
	♥ 2:33pm Michael 98145: Now i'm REALLY hungry
	2:33pm egould: And Conrad Hilton!
	♥ 2:33pm DjLorraine: Wombat twist..o m gawd... keep twistin'
	2:35pm Joeybug69: I still have memories of Alvino Rey on the King Family television extravaganza with that crazy talking steel guitar thing. Stringy!!
	♥ 2:35pm Franco Twinkie: RR, My friend Caroline and I would hit Cuca's on the way back from Mora Mesa.
	2:37pm egould: Tito’s is ok. Best Mexican in LA is La Playita on Lincoln in Venice. https://yelp.to/lWXWr4ozEsb The chicharron burrito is literally the best thing you could ever stuff into your body.
	♥ 2:38pm Franco Twinkie: This is the kind of talk I like!
	2:38pm HyperDose: I could go for some sopes right now
	2:39pm timmy c. from brooklyn: Gunther Tootie invites us to the land of the no-brows
	♥ 2:40pm DjLorraine: S Florida needs a Cuca's.
	2:41pm egould: And if you happen to be stuck in the Valley, check out Tacos El Zorro. https://yelp.to/YXxhWzGzEsb Again, amazing chicharron burrito, cold beer. Cheap.
	♥ 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I got beans & eggs & even avocado in this trap ...no queso or tortillas dammit...
	♥ 2:41pm Franco Twinkie: Egould, in the '70's La Playita was a Foster Freeze. We would go there after seen shows at The Fox Venice.
	♥ 2:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: No Brow vacation in three words? Outdoor beer couch, maybe? 🍺 🛋️
	♥ 2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ira & Nate K's ! :D
	2:43pm P-90: OK, La Playita is on my must-do list. Because a recommendation on the Fool’s Paradise Scoey Mitchell Memorial Comments Column mustn’t be taken lightly.
	2:44pm yippie: my dogs a black panther
	♥ 2:44pm Michael 98145: what P-90 said
	♥ 2:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Best affordable great Mexican food joint in LA is a pretty major statement.
	2:46pm egould: I miss LA. Well, I miss eating in LA. I might have to fly down for a long weekend. La Playita, Canters, Nick’s in Long Beach, Little Sister in Huntington Beach. Ok damn I’m getting homesick and hungry.
	2:48pm P-90: So: is El Coyote still there for great greasy enchilada combo plates and giant pitchers of high octane sangria?
	2:50pm Joeybug69: My dog used to be an alligator before I cut his tail off and painted him yellow.
	2:50pm P-90: Wait, I remember that Foster Freeze by the Fox Venice Theater…!
	2:50pm dave: Thanks rex
	♥ 2:52pm Franco Twinkie: I think when the cockroaches finally inherit the Earth, El Coyote will still there, packed to the rafters with people who couldn't find Mexico on a map of Mexico.
	♥ 2:53pm radioronan: Thanks Rex..until next time..
	2:53pm egould: Wurstkuche is across the street from the Fox theater. Sausage bliss. The bbq joint across from the Fox, Baby Blues is real good too. https://yelp.to/UD5UehCAEsb
	2:53pm Mailman Tom: Time to slop the hogs, Pa!
	♥ 2:54pm Franco Twinkie: The Fox Venice is now a budget furniture store - at least the last time I looked.
	♥ 2:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Rex!
	🌮 ♥ 2:55pm Bruce S.: Thanks Rex, Great Show Today Have a Good Lunch Everyone, Anyone In The Mood For Tacos?
	2:55pm P-90: So what did we learn today? Among many things, we learned that few topics stimulate sustained engagement on the FMU comments board like the topic “Tacos”
	2:55pm Joeybug69: Thrilled to be along for the excursion to nowhere in real time for a change instead of my usual archive plundering. Stay cool!
	♥ 2:55pm Franco Twinkie: Baby Blues moved to Abbot Kinney.
	🌮 ♥ 2:56pm The Butterman: Thanks Rex, may the slop flow relatively freely until you return. Next Saturday won’t be the same. Have fun.
	2:56pm Annette: Thanks Rex ! Enjoyed the Scoey Mitchell tribute I also liked Pale Faced Indian
	2:56pm Annette: Thanks Rex ! Enjoyed the Scoey Mitchell tribute I also liked Pale Faced Indian
	♥ 2:56pm drr: 🌮
	♥ 2:57pm Franco Twinkie: My first time here - what a revelation! Thanks Rex.
	♥ 2:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Rex Sir ~
	♥ 2:57pm McGroovey: Thanks for playing the #1 hits! Oh, that's another show. Well, thanks anyway!
	♥ 2:57pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Rex! Great show!
	2:57pm P-90: Hard to explain the magic of going to the Fox Venice for a double feature in its repertory days to someone who was never there…
	2:57pm egould: I leave LA for three years and everything goes topsy-turvy?!?!
	♥ 2:58pm Handy Haversack: Another cautionary tale from your friends at Fool's Paradise.
	2:58pm egould: Thank you Rex.
	2:58pm Creature Boy: Y wuts happened to LA ,egould?
	♥ 2:59pm DjLorraine: Remaining... thanks REX!
	♥ 2:59pm DanFA: We need more odd, conceptual pop songs like this.
	3:00pm P-90: What really blows my mind is how the whole Westwood I remember just disappeared completely, years ago.
	3:00pm Creature Boy: Nevermind, scrolled back
	3:00pm egould: Bbq places are relocating!!

A city full of actors and people trained in stage combat, but they hand light sabers to the concession staff and grounds crew and throw some robes on them for the big Jedi melee at the end for some reason. Fun, though! I'm leading a canoe trip this afternoon and can't make it to the game.
	1:57pm Hubig Pie: I havin a Spam™ taquito

	🌮 ♥ 2:25pm Bruce S.: Cmon baby lets do the bug, cmon baby give me a hug
	♥ 2:25pm Franco Twinkie: Yes indeed.
	2:26pm P-90: Believe it or not kids, as far/fetched as this sounds, once upon a time the Jack in the Box joints had something they called a “Super Taco” which was damn good.
	♥ 2:28pm Franco Twinkie: Of course. In high school Jack In The Box was THE place. But that was WAY long ago.
	♥ 2:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...my Santa Barbara memories (I was already veggie) : img1.10bestmedia.com... - with a fairly giant Horchata. All for cheap - !!
	♥ 2:30pm Franco Twinkie: That's such a beautiful picture RR. The platonic ideal of a burrito, no?
	♥ 2:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...of course starting with all the chips & red / green salsa you can eat (not 'extra' for the love of HeyZeus almighty)...
	2:32pm P-90: For a second instead of “buddy-seat sitters” I thought I heard him say “buddy-seat sinners” (which I actually like better)

	♥ 2:35pm Franco Twinkie: RR, My friend Caroline and I would hit Cuca's on the way back from Mora Mesa.
	2:37pm egould: Tito’s is ok. Best Mexican in LA is La Playita on Lincoln in Venice. https://yelp.to/lWXWr4ozEsb The chicharron burrito is literally the best thing you could ever stuff into your body.
	♥ 2:38pm Franco Twinkie: This is the kind of talk I like!
	2:38pm HyperDose: I could go for some sopes right now
	2:39pm timmy c. from brooklyn: Gunther Tootie invites us to the land of the no-brows
	♥ 2:40pm DjLorraine: S Florida needs a Cuca's.
	2:41pm egould: And if you happen to be stuck in the Valley, check out Tacos El Zorro. https://yelp.to/YXxhWzGzEsb Again, amazing chicharron burrito, cold beer. Cheap.
	♥ 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I got beans & eggs & even avocado in this trap ...no queso or tortillas dammit...
	♥ 2:41pm Franco Twinkie: Egould, in the '70's La Playita was a Foster Freeze. We would go there after seen shows at The Fox Venice.
	♥ 2:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: No Brow vacation in three words? Outdoor beer couch, maybe? 🍺 🛋️
	♥ 2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ira & Nate K's ! :D
	2:43pm P-90: OK, La Playita is on my must-do list. Because a recommendation on the Fool’s Paradise Scoey Mitchell Memorial Comments Column mustn’t be taken lightly.
	2:44pm yippie: my dogs a black panther
	♥ 2:44pm Michael 98145: what P-90 said
	♥ 2:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Best affordable great Mexican food joint in LA is a pretty major statement.
	2:46pm egould: I miss LA. Well, I miss eating in LA. I might have to fly down for a long weekend. La Playita, Canters, Nick’s in Long Beach, Little Sister in Huntington Beach. Ok damn I’m getting homesick and hungry.
	2:48pm P-90: So: is El Coyote still there for great greasy enchilada combo plates and giant pitchers of high octane sangria?
	2:50pm Joeybug69: My dog used to be an alligator before I cut his tail off and painted him yellow.
	2:50pm P-90: Wait, I remember that Foster Freeze by the Fox Venice Theater…!
	2:50pm dave: Thanks rex
	♥ 2:52pm Franco Twinkie: I think when the cockroaches finally inherit the Earth, El Coyote will still there, packed to the rafters with people who couldn't find Mexico on a map of Mexico.
	♥ 2:53pm radioronan: Thanks Rex..until next time..
	2:53pm egould: Wurstkuche is across the street from the Fox theater. Sausage bliss. The bbq joint across from the Fox, Baby Blues is real good too. https://yelp.to/UD5UehCAEsb
	2:53pm Mailman Tom: Time to slop the hogs, Pa!
	♥ 2:54pm Franco Twinkie: The Fox Venice is now a budget furniture store - at least the last time I looked.
	♥ 2:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Rex!
	🌮 ♥ 2:55pm Bruce S.: Thanks Rex, Great Show Today Have a Good Lunch Everyone, Anyone In The Mood For Tacos?
	2:55pm P-90: So what did we learn today? Among many things, we learned that few topics stimulate sustained engagement on the FMU comments board like the topic “Tacos”
	2:55pm Joeybug69: Thrilled to be along for the excursion to nowhere in real time for a change instead of my usual archive plundering. Stay cool!
	♥ 2:55pm Franco Twinkie: Baby Blues moved to Abbot Kinney.
	🌮 ♥ 2:56pm The Butterman: Thanks Rex, may the slop flow relatively freely until you return. Next Saturday won’t be the same. Have fun.

	♥ 2:57pm yerfriendpaul: Thanks Rex! Great show!
	2:57pm P-90: Hard to explain the magic of going to the Fox Venice for a double feature in its repertory days to someone who was never there…
	2:57pm egould: I leave LA for three years and everything goes topsy-turvy?!?!
	♥ 2:58pm Handy Haversack: Another cautionary tale from your friends at Fool's Paradise.

	♥ 2:59pm DjLorraine: Remaining... thanks REX!
	♥ 2:59pm DanFA: We need more odd, conceptual pop songs like this.
	3:00pm P-90: What really blows my mind is how the whole Westwood I remember just disappeared completely, years ago.
	3:00pm Creature Boy: Nevermind, scrolled back
	3:00pm egould: Bbq places are relocating!!
