	3:14pm MFO: ↳ Song: "Tape 4 Track 4" by "Sunburned Hand of the Man" Hi Wendy and everyone else! This tune is creepy!
	♥ 3:16pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey MFO! I agree. It is pretty creepy. That's a feature, though, not a bug. haha. But were I playing it alone in a dark house in the middle of the night, I might hide under my bed.
	🧀 ♥ 3:16pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @3:16 if you want some more recs for creepy albums, check out absinthe by naked city (side project of john zorn for the uninitiated)

	3:20pm asheville jon: Huh?
	♥ 3:20pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "An-Kôri" by "Kaito Winse" reminds me of my childhood playing with the corrugated hosing from the pool filter. You could change the pitch by submerging it and get a didgeridoo sound by playing it like a trumpet.
	3:21pm Adi From Sheffield: Latest pages drawn during WFMU sessions including wreck 😉 betsy.the-comic.org
	3:21pm MFO: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @3:19 Question vs Question

	3:33pm asheville jon: Already ate my snack, now eating ice cream
	3:34pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ wormington hermit @3:30 I'm very new to digital. Someone loaned me an iPad. I was very much a doubter and in some ways pencil will always be queen for me but this has been a fun revelation.

	3:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @3:34 doesn't do many any good, as i lack any semblance of manual dexterity. (as i use a touchpad w/ my left hand and a mouse w/ a right (being ambidextrous does have some advantages)
	♥ 3:48pm NotARealDoctor: I've got a cottage cheese and some strawberries, separate snacks because I do not like sweetened cottage cheese

	3:54pm northguineahills: ok, i'm about to go out and shovel the drive, and the gust are 33mph/53kmph and the windchill is 8F/-13C. this will be fun!
	♥ 3:55pm Alex from Media: ↳ northguineahills @3:54 No exposed flesh or it'll freeze!

	♥ 4:02pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "The Body" by "Dan Melchior" Hooray you saved it for me.
	♥ 4:03pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello NGH, Aitch, Brian!

	4:08pm Lala: It's friggin freezing windy outside! I'm all fripply! Staying indoors for the rest of February!
	🧀 ♥ 4:09pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "The Body" by "Dan Melchior" love how lo-fi it is, it's like the koln concert but almost gothic in a way
	🧀 ♥ 4:10pm pot8o: the shining is the perfect gif for this "you've always been the caretaker. i should know, i've always been here"
	♥ 4:11pm Wendy del Formaggio: Lala!
	4:11pm MFO: ↳ Song: "The Body" by "Dan Melchior" I just ate the heart of an artichoke I could taste the water where it was born someplace in the southern hemisphere

	♥ 4:12pm David (in London): Evening Wendles and assembled self-sabotageurs.

	🧀 ♥ 4:13pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Du und Ich" by "Xaõ Seffcheque" has shades of church of anthrax in it
	♥ 4:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: David!!!
	4:13pm βrian: ↳ MFO @4:11 Did you cut it out with an obsidian blade and hold it before you, asking for blessings from insatiable gods?
	4:14pm MFO: ↳ βrian @4:13 Oops forgive me
	4:15pm northguineahills: That was new to me and digdug! Outside I go!

	4:17pm MFO: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:15 My body is doing twist moves impossible Artichoke?
	♥ 4:18pm gauche knee: ↳ NotARealDoctor @3:56 No, I haven’t. Amazing news!🎉 Not sure if you’re a friend, fam or in a care taker role for her but along with wishing her well in her journey, wishes for you as well!

	♥ 4:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:20 Right?!?
	4:22pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:21 That's my weekly "prime the sampler" moment I suspect 😉
	♥ 4:22pm gauche knee: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:20 Absolutely same
	♥ 4:22pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Bread for Blood" by "Thus Love" This is sounding so like somebody from back in the day... cant put my finger on it.
	4:22pm MFO: ↳ Song: "Bread for Blood" by "Thus Love" Eighties underground sound
	4:23pm MFO: ↳ Alex from Media @4:22 The Fixx

	♥ 4:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Promises, Promises" by "Naked Eyes" @Alex, is it this? 'Cos that's what I heard.
	4:23pm leshwatt: I like this set Wendy!
	♥ 4:24pm Alex from Media: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:23 Well, this too. My finger was too busy talking to me.
	♥ 4:25pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ leshwatt @4:23 Thanks, leshwatt!
	4:26pm MFO: Freeform Forever!!!
	♥ 4:26pm coelacanth∅: greetings Wendy and all
	♥ 4:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey coel!
	🧀 ♥ 4:27pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Promises, Promises" by "Naked Eyes" this is pure, unadulterated 80s and i love it
	♥ 4:27pm David (in London): ↳ MFO @4:23 The Fixx, blimey. Used to rather like them, but they were much more an American success than a British one. They couldn't get arrested in the UK, despite being from London.
	♥ 4:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:27 I love that song so much. It makes me happy every time I hear it.
	♥ 4:28pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ David (in London) @4:27 The Fixx was a band I loved SO MUCH when they had hits on the radio. I think I was 10 years old or so. I still love them.
	♥ 4:28pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" Wow here's a blast. I'm gonna have to dig this album, out and play it later.
	4:28pm MFO: ↳ David (in London) @4:27 Don't know a lot of the backstories
	4:28pm audiolab1: ↳ northguineahills @3:48 Hi northguineahills, hope the shoveling went well. My back is not happy with me right now!
	♥ 4:29pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:28 He's out shoveling now. I hope your back feels better soon.
	🧀 ♥ 4:29pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:28 i really liked one thing leads to another, i haven't really heard any of their other hits
	♥ 4:30pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" Beauty
	🧀 ♥ 4:31pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" i wonder who could go higher: klaus nomi or jimmy somerville
	4:31pm audiolab1: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:29 It has been an absolutely silly winter this year. Worst one in the 15 years living up here. I'm dreaming of a sunny, sandy beach!
	♥ 4:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:29 Check out "Saved By Zero." Wonderfully sinister sounds.
	♥ 4:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:31 The question alone makes my heart sing.
	♥ 4:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:31 Oh gosh, I'm sorry, my friend. I know things are tough lately. Sending you long-distance hugs.
	♥ 4:33pm David (in London): Didn't have an outbreak of The Fixx on my bingo card for this evening. Will have to dig the old EPs out.
	4:33pm MFO: ↳ Kat in the chat @4:30 Is there a plot to the lyrics to this song?
	4:33pm audiolab1: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:32 Thank you, Wendy. At least going out and cursing at the snow as I'm shoveling is a distraction.
	♥ 4:33pm fred: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" A classic
	♥ 4:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:33 <3 Use the tools at your disposal!
	♥ 4:35pm gauche knee: ↳ pot8o @4:31 Haha, fantastic question!
	♥ 4:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ MFO @4:33 Yes. A sad and painful one.
	4:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ MFO @4:33 I believe it was in many ways autobiographical. The accompanying music video shows the story pretty clearly.
	4:36pm MFO: I got it run away from ourselves our souls!
	♥ 4:36pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @4:31 or Martyn Jacques (sp?)
	♥ 4:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 The video breaks my heart.
	4:37pm MFO: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 Ok thank u
	4:37pm edfromnewbeige: Sorry mark I’m listening on my surveillance device!
	♥ 4:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: @ed: haha! I won't tell him.
	🧀 ♥ 4:38pm pot8o: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:36 i'd throw mark hollis in there too but he's iirc a lot lower than the rest
	♥ 4:38pm David (in London): ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:36 Hey Coela.
	4:39pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:36 I still think of this song as being incredibly important especially at a time in the UK when tolerance was low and misinformation from the government was rampant (not that we're much better now). It illustrated an important truth for many that was simply not told.
	♥ 4:40pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:39 Indeed. It sure sent messages to queer little Wendo.
	4:40pm MFO: ↳ pot8o @4:38 Why is Hollies lower?
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @4:38 maybe not the range but such a Beautiful voice
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ David (in London) @4:38 ahoy David
	♥ 4:42pm fred: There was a video of Jimmy Somerville joining a busker singing Smalltown Boy
	🧀 ♥ 4:44pm pot8o: ↳ MFO @4:40 lower in range, i love his vocals but i don't think he can go as high as nomi or somerville
	4:44pm northguineahills: ok, got the lip of the drive done. having trucks coming w/in a meter of me wasn't fun, but i was never hit. now for the wall of ice the plow left...
	4:45pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Cologne" by "Trans Am" i got this record the week before seeing trans am for the second time..(out of five0
	♥ 4:45pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ northguineahills @4:44 <3 You're the best.
	♥ 4:47pm wormington hermit: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:45 Do you guys have to rake your roof too? We had to start doing that due to leakage.
	♥ 4:48pm David (in London): ↳ Song: "At Home He's a Tourist" by "Gang of Four" Ah, the Gang. Never grows old.
	♥ 4:48pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "At Home He's a Tourist" by "Gang of Four" Just bought their album Return the Gift. I like the less produced I Love a Man in A Uniform better than the hit.
	♥ 4:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ wormington hermit @4:47 We don't. My roof is quite pitched and it's slate, so after a few days or a sunny one, the snow and ice just slides right off... and shakes the house like it's an earthquake!
	♥ 4:52pm wormington hermit: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:51 Ooh I love a slate roof.
	♥ 4:53pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ wormington hermit @4:52 Me too. I need to get my roof guy up there, though. He didn't come last year (I couldn't reach him!) and I wanna make sure no slates need repair / replacement. The previous owner pre-emptively had him replace 25 slates every year just to not have to do the whole thing at once. Smart!
	4:54pm MFO: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:39 I make investigated artwork every line mark on the paper I question I need to step back
	🧀 ♥ 4:56pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:53 slate of theseus
	♥ 4:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:56 hahaha totally!
	♥ 5:03pm gauche knee: ↳ audiolab1 @4:33 You curse the damn snow all you want! Make sure of post shoveling care: heat the back, fuel your body with something nourishing, Have regular strength Tylenol or Advil (nsaid) on hand, you may need.
	♥ 5:04pm coelacanth∅: correction: you have done something wrong, most likely. lots of things; but that's not related to the badges disappearing.
	♥ 5:05pm NotARealDoctor: oh shit I'll be listening to that
	♥ 5:08pm gauche knee: LOVE PENELOPE💕
	♥ 5:16pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:04 hahaha!
	🧀 ♥ 5:19pm pot8o: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:04 i was told i'll only get me my badges back if i clean my room and do the dishes
	♥ 5:22pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Sammy the Snake" by "Jeffrey Moss & Joe Raposo" Slinky skin shedding song
	♥ 5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @5:19 they won't tell me what i'll have to do. they say i'll know when the time comes. i'm scared.
	5:23pm David (in London): Could hear Lou Reed doing Sammy the Snake.
	♥ 5:24pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Camera" by "R.E.M." Ooh I was thinking about old R.E.M this weekend. Not this particular track, but this LP and earlier.

	♥ 5:26pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ leshwatt @5:26 So many hidden gems.
	♥ 5:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:26 Yes indeedy
	♥ 5:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Camera" by "R.E.M." There's faint tinkling of some percussion in here, and I can't tell if it's the CD or the wind chimes right outside the window. The wind is HOWLING out there!
	5:30pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:26 Hello, Wendy. I'd like to be more interactive with your show, but I'm still having trouble with your color scheme. Maybe we can work on a compromise later?
	♥ 5:31pm doctorjazz: Hi, been lurking while making vegetable soup, Hello Adventurers, Wendy!
	♥ 5:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:30 Hi A.J. I'm sorry it's troubling you. Can you email me some details about what works for you? Maybe examples of other shows' playlists that are easier on your eyes?
	♥ 5:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: Docjazz! I was wondering if this track would call you outta the woodwork.
	♥ 5:33pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "In a Sentimental Mood" by "Chico Hamilton with Er... Time for my job! Alto Saxophone – Eric Dolphy (tracks: 2, 4, 7, 9) Bass – Hal Gaylor* Cello – Nate Gershman* Drums – Chico Hamilton Guitar – John Pisano

	🧀 ♥ 4:13pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Du und Ich" by "Xaõ Seffcheque" has shades of church of anthrax in it
	♥ 4:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: David!!!
	4:13pm βrian: ↳ MFO @4:11 Did you cut it out with an obsidian blade and hold it before you, asking for blessings from insatiable gods?
	4:14pm MFO: ↳ βrian @4:13 Oops forgive me
	4:15pm northguineahills: That was new to me and digdug! Outside I go!
	🧀 ♥ 4:15pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Deliverance" by "Agitation Free" nww list!!!!!
	♥ 4:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ βrian @4:13 Wait, there's another way to eat artichoke hearts than that?
	4:17pm MFO: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:15 My body is doing twist moves impossible Artichoke?
	♥ 4:18pm gauche knee: ↳ NotARealDoctor @3:56 No, I haven’t. Amazing news!🎉 Not sure if you’re a friend, fam or in a care taker role for her but along with wishing her well in her journey, wishes for you as well!
	♥ 4:20pm David (in London): ngh, pot80, fred, Aitch, NARD, Bas, WR, Yvang, et al. Hello good folk.
	4:20pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Bread for Blood" by "Thus Love" Sold me straight away on that bass line.
	♥ 4:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:20 Right?!?
	4:22pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:21 That's my weekly "prime the sampler" moment I suspect 😉
	♥ 4:22pm gauche knee: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:20 Absolutely same
	♥ 4:22pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Bread for Blood" by "Thus Love" This is sounding so like somebody from back in the day... cant put my finger on it.
	4:22pm MFO: ↳ Song: "Bread for Blood" by "Thus Love" Eighties underground sound
	4:23pm MFO: ↳ Alex from Media @4:22 The Fixx
	♥ 4:23pm Alex from Media: ↳ MFO @4:23 Yes!
	♥ 4:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Promises, Promises" by "Naked Eyes" @Alex, is it this? 'Cos that's what I heard.
	4:23pm leshwatt: I like this set Wendy!
	♥ 4:24pm Alex from Media: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:23 Well, this too. My finger was too busy talking to me.
	♥ 4:25pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ leshwatt @4:23 Thanks, leshwatt!
	4:26pm MFO: Freeform Forever!!!
	♥ 4:26pm coelacanth∅: greetings Wendy and all
	♥ 4:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey coel!
	🧀 ♥ 4:27pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Promises, Promises" by "Naked Eyes" this is pure, unadulterated 80s and i love it
	♥ 4:27pm David (in London): ↳ MFO @4:23 The Fixx, blimey. Used to rather like them, but they were much more an American success than a British one. They couldn't get arrested in the UK, despite being from London.
	♥ 4:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:27 I love that song so much. It makes me happy every time I hear it.
	♥ 4:28pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ David (in London) @4:27 The Fixx was a band I loved SO MUCH when they had hits on the radio. I think I was 10 years old or so. I still love them.
	♥ 4:28pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" Wow here's a blast. I'm gonna have to dig this album, out and play it later.
	4:28pm MFO: ↳ David (in London) @4:27 Don't know a lot of the backstories
	4:28pm audiolab1: ↳ northguineahills @3:48 Hi northguineahills, hope the shoveling went well. My back is not happy with me right now!
	♥ 4:29pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:28 He's out shoveling now. I hope your back feels better soon.
	🧀 ♥ 4:29pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:28 i really liked one thing leads to another, i haven't really heard any of their other hits
	♥ 4:30pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" Beauty
	🧀 ♥ 4:31pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" i wonder who could go higher: klaus nomi or jimmy somerville
	4:31pm audiolab1: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:29 It has been an absolutely silly winter this year. Worst one in the 15 years living up here. I'm dreaming of a sunny, sandy beach!
	♥ 4:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:29 Check out "Saved By Zero." Wonderfully sinister sounds.
	♥ 4:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:31 The question alone makes my heart sing.
	♥ 4:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:31 Oh gosh, I'm sorry, my friend. I know things are tough lately. Sending you long-distance hugs.
	♥ 4:33pm David (in London): Didn't have an outbreak of The Fixx on my bingo card for this evening. Will have to dig the old EPs out.
	4:33pm MFO: ↳ Kat in the chat @4:30 Is there a plot to the lyrics to this song?
	4:33pm audiolab1: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:32 Thank you, Wendy. At least going out and cursing at the snow as I'm shoveling is a distraction.
	♥ 4:33pm fred: ↳ Song: "Smalltown Boy (12" Version)" by "Bronski Beat" A classic
	♥ 4:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ audiolab1 @4:33 <3 Use the tools at your disposal!
	♥ 4:35pm gauche knee: ↳ pot8o @4:31 Haha, fantastic question!
	♥ 4:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ MFO @4:33 Yes. A sad and painful one.
	4:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ MFO @4:33 I believe it was in many ways autobiographical. The accompanying music video shows the story pretty clearly.
	4:36pm MFO: I got it run away from ourselves our souls!
	♥ 4:36pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @4:31 or Martyn Jacques (sp?)
	♥ 4:36pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 The video breaks my heart.
	4:37pm MFO: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 Ok thank u
	4:37pm edfromnewbeige: Sorry mark I’m listening on my surveillance device!
	♥ 4:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: @ed: haha! I won't tell him.
	🧀 ♥ 4:38pm pot8o: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:36 i'd throw mark hollis in there too but he's iirc a lot lower than the rest
	♥ 4:38pm David (in London): ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:36 Hey Coela.
	4:39pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:36 I still think of this song as being incredibly important especially at a time in the UK when tolerance was low and misinformation from the government was rampant (not that we're much better now). It illustrated an important truth for many that was simply not told.
	♥ 4:40pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:39 Indeed. It sure sent messages to queer little Wendo.
	4:40pm MFO: ↳ pot8o @4:38 Why is Hollies lower?
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @4:38 maybe not the range but such a Beautiful voice
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ David (in London) @4:38 ahoy David
	♥ 4:42pm fred: There was a video of Jimmy Somerville joining a busker singing Smalltown Boy
	🧀 ♥ 4:44pm pot8o: ↳ MFO @4:40 lower in range, i love his vocals but i don't think he can go as high as nomi or somerville
	4:44pm northguineahills: ok, got the lip of the drive done. having trucks coming w/in a meter of me wasn't fun, but i was never hit. now for the wall of ice the plow left...
	4:45pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Cologne" by "Trans Am" i got this record the week before seeing trans am for the second time..(out of five0
	♥ 4:45pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ northguineahills @4:44 <3 You're the best.
	♥ 4:47pm wormington hermit: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:45 Do you guys have to rake your roof too? We had to start doing that due to leakage.
	♥ 4:48pm David (in London): ↳ Song: "At Home He's a Tourist" by "Gang of Four" Ah, the Gang. Never grows old.
	♥ 4:48pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "At Home He's a Tourist" by "Gang of Four" Just bought their album Return the Gift. I like the less produced I Love a Man in A Uniform better than the hit.
	♥ 4:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ wormington hermit @4:47 We don't. My roof is quite pitched and it's slate, so after a few days or a sunny one, the snow and ice just slides right off... and shakes the house like it's an earthquake!
	♥ 4:52pm wormington hermit: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:51 Ooh I love a slate roof.
	♥ 4:53pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ wormington hermit @4:52 Me too. I need to get my roof guy up there, though. He didn't come last year (I couldn't reach him!) and I wanna make sure no slates need repair / replacement. The previous owner pre-emptively had him replace 25 slates every year just to not have to do the whole thing at once. Smart!
	4:54pm MFO: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:39 I make investigated artwork every line mark on the paper I question I need to step back
	🧀 ♥ 4:56pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @4:53 slate of theseus
	♥ 4:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @4:56 hahaha totally!
	♥ 5:03pm gauche knee: ↳ audiolab1 @4:33 You curse the damn snow all you want! Make sure of post shoveling care: heat the back, fuel your body with something nourishing, Have regular strength Tylenol or Advil (nsaid) on hand, you may need.
	♥ 5:04pm coelacanth∅: correction: you have done something wrong, most likely. lots of things; but that's not related to the badges disappearing.
	♥ 5:05pm NotARealDoctor: oh shit I'll be listening to that
	♥ 5:08pm gauche knee: LOVE PENELOPE💕
	♥ 5:16pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:04 hahaha!
	🧀 ♥ 5:19pm pot8o: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:04 i was told i'll only get me my badges back if i clean my room and do the dishes
	♥ 5:22pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Sammy the Snake" by "Jeffrey Moss & Joe Raposo" Slinky skin shedding song
	♥ 5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ pot8o @5:19 they won't tell me what i'll have to do. they say i'll know when the time comes. i'm scared.
	5:23pm David (in London): Could hear Lou Reed doing Sammy the Snake.
	♥ 5:24pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Camera" by "R.E.M." Ooh I was thinking about old R.E.M this weekend. Not this particular track, but this LP and earlier.
	5:24pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Song: "Sammy the Snake" by "Jeffrey Moss & Joe Raposo" Continue resting in peace, Jerry Nelson (voice of Sammy the Sanke and many other Muppets.
	♥ 5:26pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @5:24 Psychic DJ Connection!
	5:26pm leshwatt: ↳ Song: "Camera" by "R.E.M." Underrated REM is the best REM
	♥ 5:26pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:24 Indeed. Also, hello A.J. MACHETE!
	♥ 5:26pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ leshwatt @5:26 So many hidden gems.
	♥ 5:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:26 Yes indeedy
	♥ 5:27pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Camera" by "R.E.M." There's faint tinkling of some percussion in here, and I can't tell if it's the CD or the wind chimes right outside the window. The wind is HOWLING out there!
	5:30pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:26 Hello, Wendy. I'd like to be more interactive with your show, but I'm still having trouble with your color scheme. Maybe we can work on a compromise later?
	♥ 5:31pm doctorjazz: Hi, been lurking while making vegetable soup, Hello Adventurers, Wendy!
	♥ 5:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:30 Hi A.J. I'm sorry it's troubling you. Can you email me some details about what works for you? Maybe examples of other shows' playlists that are easier on your eyes?
	♥ 5:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: Docjazz! I was wondering if this track would call you outta the woodwork.
	♥ 5:33pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "In a Sentimental Mood" by "Chico Hamilton with Er... Time for my job! Alto Saxophone – Eric Dolphy (tracks: 2, 4, 7, 9) Bass – Hal Gaylor* Cello – Nate Gershman* Drums – Chico Hamilton Guitar – John Pisano
	5:34pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:31 Sure. I will try; the last time I emailed through the portal with another DJ, I wasn't getting their replies for some reason. But I'll give it a go.
	🧀 ♥ 5:34pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Fairest of All" by "The Red Krayola with Art & La... nww list!!!!!
	5:35pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:34 It's just a visual thing on my end.

	♥ 5:35pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Fairest of All" by "The Red Krayola with Art & La... Wait what? Red Krayola still active in the aughts?

	♥ 5:37pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:35 Let's work together on this!
	5:38pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:37 Yayyyyy!!
	♥ 5:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:38 <3
	♥ 5:39pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @5:38 I wonder if black print on a pale yellow background (like aged clothbound cheddar) will be easier for you.
	5:41pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @5:39 Hey, if there's cheese in the simile, then maybe all the better.
	5:41pm audiolab1: ↳ wormington hermit @4:47 We certainly do here...normally just to prevent ice damming in a few places, but this year I'm concerned having 3 feet of snow loading the roof!
	5:42pm A.J. MACHETE: Don't mess with it now though. I don't want to disrupt the chat.
	♥ 5:44pm doctorjazz: Thank goodness, we got mostly rain these past few days (though I went to a music venue yesterday, The Falcoln, almosty 2 hours drive, was driving in near monsoon conditions going there).
	♥ 5:46pm wormington hermit: ↳ audiolab1 @5:41 ! Wow ! That's practically a glacier up there!
