	9:07am Andrea C: ↳ Triple G @9:05 masterpiece of a movie. sadly probably going to be too contemporary again.

	♥ 9:21am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mike in Montreal @9:20 Don't worry. I just had this moment where I was like, "Why is the radio so quiet? I hope the tuner isn't busted." And then I solved the problem by turning up the volume, which had apparently been turned down. I can't decide whether I deserve credit or shame for this entire squalid process. At any rate, correct volume levels have been achieved.

	♥ 9:37am Mark91: ↳ Mike in Montreal @9:31 In high school when doing that quintessentially American teenager thing of cruising around town in a carful of rowdy fellow teenagers, I would play Laurie Anderson's "United States of America, Live". Nerd alert, but we miraculously managed to have fun.

	♥ 9:37am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): mwah
	♥ 9:38am Toothgrinder Tom: Hey that was me!
	♥ 9:40am JDub/Beesha: so is beesha up for grabs? i kinda like it!
	9:41am Mike in Montreal: ↳ Mark91 @9:37 You know how some music just grabs you right off, with no context, even if none of your friends are into it. Big Science was like that for me. Trans Europe Express was like that. Ambient 3 too
	♥ 9:41am unpopularfred: looking for new innovative screw-ups the like of which I've never heard before

	♥ 9:57am Ike: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:54 Yup, thanks! But I had to get up a little early and work (collecting signatures for Zellnor for mayor). I’m taking a break now. It’s tough standing out here in the cold yelling stuff like, “Hey folks, how about a non-corrupt mayor for a change? No mo’ Cuomo! This is the candidate Eric Adams hates most!” and such.
	9:58am morphe': ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @9:54 They have gone to Cheltenham for the races ... the sons gave their Da a 70 BD gift ... feeding the dogs, hens and collecting the eggs ... will take six and grab some stored onions, garlic, potatoes and new purple broccoli in return ...
	♥ 9:58am Toothgrinder Tom: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:49 Is that Jeremiah Johnson country out there?
	♥ 9:59am Ike: ↳ Ike @9:57 (Lander may actually be the one Adams hates most, but I’m not above a minor bit of creative liberty. And even if so, Zellnor would be a close second.)
	9:59am Meesalikeu: heyyy wat are you doing on my staten island? ha
	♥ 10:00am Toothgrinder Tom: ↳ morphe' @9:58 Sounds like a Seamus Heaney poem in the making …
	10:00am Ochre Ogre: Looks like an Ingres drawing up top. Same that inspired David Hockney to investigate the old masters use of devices to do their artwork.
	10:02am Meesalikeu: fyi near the tibet museum is a lighthouse and a frank lloyd wright house to gander at after you hauled yourself all the way out & up there. also historic richmondtown is just below which is an amazing collection of old staten structures.
	♥ 10:02am unpopularfred: community has its limits

	10:26am Cyn: My cat is Peterfonda!
	♥ 10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ The Oscar @10:25 1000 percent.
	10:26am rx "rexy" scabin: Celeste and Hugo, cats. I used to have a dog named Bob Barker.
	♥ 10:26am melinda: Those are all excellent cat names. I like to give cats a proper human name, and then goofy nicknames follow organically.
	♥ 10:27am melinda: My landlord has a cat named Dolly Parton.
	♥ 10:27am sleepy: I met a cat named Chester Field.
	10:27am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:22 Right incredible, been to Zurich. All the trams and buses were perfectly on time.

	10:30am lentils: “Fraida Felcher ? From Cranston?” I’m due for a rewatch of dumb and dumber. Trouble 4 life !!
	♥ 10:31am xtrakrispy: Canada as a 51st state is actually a great idea. Canadians tend to be much more liberal than Americans. It would almost guarantee 2 Democratic Senators and 30 some Congresspeople. Likely swaying power to the Democrats. If each Provence was treated as a state it would really make a difference in the Senate. Trump is too stupid to realize the reality of his ideas.
	10:31am cat: Born but not raised in Cranston, swag 4 life member!
	♥ 10:31am Marley P. Dogg: Well said Handy!
	♥ 10:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:31 They was provokin' me!

	10:35am Meesalikeu: we never hear enough of this saint
	♥ 10:36am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "nothing can stop us now" by "St Etienne" THEEEEEEEEE BEST
	10:37am Ochre Ogre: Gotta wonder if that 51st state idea is just a diversion to keep the confusing chaos BS going? Maybe stephen miller's idea.
	10:38am Mike in Montreal: ↳ xtrakrispy @10:31 He's not stupid. He's acting stupid. Treating him like a clown is dangerous.
	10:39am Meesalikeu: we like to read aloud the short remarks about a saint of the day in ‘lives of the saints.’ its harrowing way to start or end your day. its a beloved nick cave approved tome.
	10:40am Meesalikeu: is there a bad version of desafinado? i dk one.

	10:52am Ochre Ogre: Francoise!
	♥ 10:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Mike in Montreal @10:41 www.last.fm...
	10:57am morphe': ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:49 One of the owners of St Marks Bookshop, NYC was named Terry ... one day, out of nothingness ... he told a story about how his childhood family dog was also called Terry???? [true story] And he spoke of how he was always confused when his mother called out "Terry" for he knew not if she was calling for him or the dog.... As far as I recollect, the 3-4 of us went away in silence with each of us then silently understanding why poor sad Terry was such a poor, sad, melancholic fellow ... [true story] ... There are quite a few Terry stories...
	♥ 10:59am The Oscar: If the president listened to WFMU he'd tweet out a screed asking why the model from the romance books is playing three hours of experimental music.
	♥ 11:00am Gregosaurus: ↳ The Oscar @10:59 Too many syllables.
	♥ 11:00am unpopularfred: write what you want, but keep in mind threats will get get you a visit from the Secret Service

	♥ 11:07am The Oscar: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 Of course-- we had to!! Both movies got the name from an old guide to witchcraft :)
	♥ 11:07am Krull Sagan: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 I think I’ve seen the name in a woodcut from the 17th c. as the name of a cat “familiar” to a witch!
	♥ 11:07am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "sdate with the rain" by "eddie kendrick" people hold on, but not to your money
	11:08am Meesalikeu: the background muzak doesn’t go away until they reach $1.7M folks! :)
	11:08am morphe': ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:03 Another Terry story: "Zap Comix Were Never for Kids" "In 1969, in an atmosphere of simmering animus toward youth culture, an undercover agent from the New York Police Department's Public Morals Squad visited two bookstores to buy copies of Zap No. 4. This minor bit of commerce had violent repercussions. "This bearded guy pushed the door open aggressively and said 'OK, this place is closed down!'" remembered Terry McCoy of the East Side Bookstore. "I thought he was a street guy. I instinctively blocked the entrance. 'Hey, buddy,' I said, trying to calm him down and get him outside, 'what's the problem?' He said, 'You work here?' I said, 'Yes,' and he said, 'You're under arrest.'" McCoy, the boss, and another employee were all taken to the precinct and then the Manhattan Detention Complex. " reason.com...
	11:08am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "sdate with the rain" by "eddie kendrick" wow, I love these lyrics--working and lurking and loving the show (and Trouble and Therese together!)

	♥ 11:12am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Morning all. Back in the grind at work but will have this show on in background....
	11:12am ?: Not to be pedantic, bit it's Eddie Kendricks (with a final s). I know this because many decades ago I bought the 45 of his "Keep on Trucking'"--a prized possession.
	♥ 11:12am Farmer Tom: yesssssss! Trouble, you're a real one for braking out the Las Grecas!
	11:13am rx "rexy" scabin: @Krull Sagan one time my mom was calling me and had to work her way through my father's name, my brother's name, the dog's name until she got to mine.
	♥ 11:13am Jiff: ↳ Farmer Tom @11:12 was that the same group that did the Ketchup Song?

	♥ 11:18am Handy Haversack: Speaking of the dog, I have to take him on a turn so I'll say thanks now. Many thanks, Trouble, Therese, all the phone peeps, and especially you modern pledgers!
	♥ 11:19am Farmer Tom: ↳ Jiff @11:13 not familiar with the Ketchup Song, but the album from which Trouble pulled from here - Gispy Rock (1974) is all killer, no filler!
	♥ 11:21am Jiff: The more I hear of this premium the more I need it
	11:21am rx "rexy" scabin: @Handy Haversack it is probably some form of justice.
	11:21am Meesalikeu: @? keep on truckin was a real 1970s craze for a minute. it was everywhere. jeans patches, posters, r. crumb and of course big semi truck mudflaps.

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	♥ 10:31am xtrakrispy: Canada as a 51st state is actually a great idea. Canadians tend to be much more liberal than Americans. It would almost guarantee 2 Democratic Senators and 30 some Congresspeople. Likely swaying power to the Democrats. If each Provence was treated as a state it would really make a difference in the Senate. Trump is too stupid to realize the reality of his ideas.

	10:37am Ochre Ogre: Gotta wonder if that 51st state idea is just a diversion to keep the confusing chaos BS going? Maybe stephen miller's idea.
	10:38am Mike in Montreal: ↳ xtrakrispy @10:31 He's not stupid. He's acting stupid. Treating him like a clown is dangerous.
	10:39am Meesalikeu: we like to read aloud the short remarks about a saint of the day in ‘lives of the saints.’ its harrowing way to start or end your day. its a beloved nick cave approved tome.

[true story] And he spoke of how he was always confused when his mother called out "Terry" for he knew not if she was calling for him or the dog.... As far as I recollect, the 3-4 of us went away in silence with each of us then silently understanding why poor sad Terry was such a poor, sad, melancholic fellow ... [true story] ... There are quite a few Terry stories...
	♥ 10:59am The Oscar: If the president listened to WFMU he'd tweet out a screed asking why the model from the romance books is playing three hours of experimental music.

	11:08am morphe': ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:03 Another Terry story: "Zap Comix Were Never for Kids" "In 1969, in an atmosphere of simmering animus toward youth culture, an undercover agent from the New York Police Department's Public Morals Squad visited two bookstores to buy copies of Zap No. 4. This minor bit of commerce had violent repercussions. "This bearded guy pushed the door open aggressively and said 'OK, this place is closed down!'" remembered Terry McCoy of the East Side Bookstore. "I thought he was a street guy. I instinctively blocked the entrance. 'Hey, buddy,' I said, trying to calm him down and get him outside, 'what's the problem?' He said, 'You work here?' I said, 'Yes,' and he said, 'You're under arrest.'" McCoy, the boss, and another employee were all taken to the precinct and then the Manhattan Detention Complex. " reason.com...
