	6:32pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:31 I've had this fantasy of a movie musical about LA and this recording was used, and the final shot is a car crashing into a mini-mall. It still makes sense to me....

	♥ 6:44pm Otis Fodder: Bulldada B-Day Cake!
	6:46pm A2B: So, the A's start the season as Las Vegas' first baseball team. How do you think they'll fare out in the transiition? My take: They'll become the new Chicago Cubs.
	6:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "the_swedish_rhapsody_irdial" by "Unknown" THought the ice cream truck was coming down my street. Was about to run outside to get me some Froze Toes.
	6:50pm A2B: ↳ Song: "the_swedish_rhapsody_irdial" by "Unknown" Did Mary Wing hep you to this?
	6:51pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @6:46 The shaky start remains and they have yet to finalize the stadium plans. Not a good "start".
	6:59pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @6:51 So they currently have no place to play?
	7:01pm A2B: ↳ Song: "first 10 minutes of Tribulation 99" by "Craig Bal... Reminding me of Joe Frank a bit.
	7:04pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:59 In Vegas? It's still up in the air. The mixture of disorganization and desperation is turning out to be a confused mess.
	7:04pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @7:04 An outdoor game in a town where summer temps reach 120 degrees - what can go wrong?!
	7:05pm Don-O: ↳ Don-O @7:04 I suspect their move to Sacramento is secretly plan B JUST in case this whole thing blows up.
	7:06pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:04 Skin cancer! That's why the Arizona D'Back stadium has a retracting roof.
	7:06pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:04 Sounds like Vegas is relapsing back to it's mob roots.
	7:07pm Kat in the chat at the laundromat: Merry Frickin Birthday, Don-O!
	♥ 7:08pm Otis Fodder: Hi Kat, happy launderin'
	7:08pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @7:06 Welp, they did a better job of consumer services than the corporations. Plus, the prices and fees are catching up with them....
	7:08pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat at the laundromat @7:07 Happy Crap to you, Kat!
	7:09pm Kat in the chat at the laundromat: Heya Otis!
	🎸 ♥ 7:09pm Listener Robert: Craig Baldwin is sick?
	7:09pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @7:09 He got himself Neck Cancer. They set up a GoFundMe page for him.
	🎸 ♥ 7:10pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @7:09 Oof!
	♥ 7:10pm Otis Fodder: Sending best wishes to Craig! Can you post the GoFundMe Link Don-O. Thanks!
	7:10pm Don-O: I giggle at the copyright infringement panic attack of yore these days.
	♥ 7:11pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:10 Just over 25 years ago it was something until file-sharing took hold.
	7:11pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:08 Otis, whatever happened to Lomo (or whatever)? The record label that put out Bounces.....I think....
	♥ 7:12pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:11 Folded shortly after, only a couple of releases as I recall. We bought copies of the CD from the label at the time, few hundred and sold them ourselves. We each have one left. Original run was 1000 CDs.
	7:14pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "first 10 minutes of Tribulation 99" by "Craig Bal... Here's that GoFundMe page for Craig: www.gofundme.com...
	♥ 7:14pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:12 Hmmm maybe it was just 500 CDs actually. Getting it confused with a later run/release, Hands.
	♥ 7:14pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:14 Thanks!
	🎸 ♥ 7:14pm Listener Robert: Birthday celebration? You remembered my birthday!
	7:14pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:14 I Have Hands was Illegal Arts, right?
	♥ 7:15pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:14 yep
	7:15pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @7:14 Our collective hands are tied by fate and cake!! Birthday Greetings in return, Listener Robert!
	♥ 7:16pm Otis Fodder: Happy B-Day Robert!
	7:20pm Don-O: I missed sharing my birthday with William Shatner. Mixed feelings about that one.
	7:21pm A2B: ↳ Song: "It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" by "Earnest Gold" Mark Evanier's most favorite movie of all time (so he constantly brags on his blog). And how could you blame him? A Who's Who of Hollywood's comedy elite all in one film!
	♥ 7:21pm spodiodi: ↳ Listener Robert @7:14 Happy Birthday!
	7:22pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @7:21 I got the Criterion Collection of the movie. Commentary track is a fanboy-gasim!
	7:25pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:22 Mark just happens to be one of the voices on the commentary track.
	7:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sunny" by "Bobby Herb" I like how the radio player shows a pic of Herb Alpert.
	7:31pm Buddy Runyan: “All right My gosh, are you?”
	🎸 ♥ 7:31pm Cp304: Yo Don-O, can I borrow them used candles, power went out while I was in the shower.. 2nd time this week
	7:33pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:31 Eeeek! Did some drunk driver hit a pole and knocked out the transmitter? We got a lot of that in Grover Beach!
	7:33pm Don-O: Oh, I haven't broken into the cake JUST yet...
	7:34pm Don-O: We are now halfway through this show. Mind the gap!
	🎸 ♥ 7:34pm Cp304: I slid get an alert on my werk phone that one of our generates kicked in.. investigatng now..
	🎸 ♥ 7:35pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:34 No worries, got some day light and plenty of charged LEDs
	7:37pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:35 Solid!
	7:39pm A2B: ↳ Mr Fab @7:29 You must be listening through the RadioRethink app. If they still rely on Spotify for music infos, they're not worth using. I'd suggest downloading the stream link and listening through a local media player.
	7:40pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "1977 PeopleMover Disneyland" by "The Walt Discney... Yup, this is certainly before the Tron Tunnel!
	7:42pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "1977 PeopleMover Disneyland" by "The Walt Discney... You can hear many of these BGM tracks in stereo somewhere in this set: www.youtube.com...
	7:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Oh No Not My Baby" by "Maxine Brown" When i listened to KDAY in the '80s it was str8 outta Compton. It did NOT sound like this, haha.
	♥ 7:54pm Otis Fodder: See ya Don-O... time for a late dinner and sleep soon. Happy B-Day-D-O! Bye all.
	7:54pm red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: It's been an awesome fun show Don-O!! HBD again!! 🎊✨🥳✌️🎶
	7:55pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:54 Thanks fer stopping by, Otis. Bug ya later....
	7:59pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:40 Funny you should mention that. I was thinking back to the 2010 sequel "Tron: Legacy" and the soundtrack that was allegedly fully produced by Daft Punk. Shortly before the movie's release, it was discovered that other artists were involved with some of the tracks on it but none of them recieved formal credit for their work. And DP themselves released an album's worth of tracks, in a freely downloadable archive file of mp3's on their official fansite, that were meant for the soundtrack but were rejected by Disney.
	8:00pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @7:34 If that happened while at my job in the 1980s, I would sometimes be dispatched to a certain location (often at a pole mounted power supply) where I would connect my motor generator in my company truck to part of the cable system, in order to keep cable service online.
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:00 I just got off the phone with the on call tech, he is at the lot now loading generators in the bucket truck . Power supply batteries last about an hour round here
	🎸 ♥ 8:03pm Cp304: Was that Galactica in the back ground?
	8:06pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:01 Things haven’t changed all that much. I wonder if the power supplies are manufactured by “Alpha.” There’s one just up the street from my home in Seattle.
	8:10pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "a whole lote of early OTE clips" by "Negativland" Yea, Mark!!
	🎸 ♥ 8:10pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:06 Yep, that's what we got.. the green boxes mounted on the poles.. btw, sometimes on call I Revisit these wild skits to keep me sane.. did you ever relisten to this stuff while working?
	8:10pm Buddy Runyan: Sometimes Mark is too cute!
	8:11pm Don-O: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:10 Ummmmm...too cute for the band?! Oh, collective.
	8:12pm Don-O: The birthday cake has just been broken into....
	🎸 ♥ 8:14pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @8:12 Get it Don -O !
	8:16pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @8:14 I just posted the piece for you 'show & tell' nosey bastards....
	8:16pm Kat in the chat: Back from the laundromat, this crap was good company.
	8:17pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:10 I think my overhead drop cable is from the first tap out of a line extender, so the high rf frequencies are “forward tilted.” I’m getting around 700 megabits download.
	🎸 ♥ 8:19pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:16 Heya Kat
	8:20pm Buddy Runyan: Not sure if The Contra Costa County Central Sanitary District had cable TV.
	8:20pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "a whole lote of early OTE clips" by "Negativland" Is this art? It's just crap.....
	🎸 ♥ 8:21pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:17 My thoughts on first out the LE are, you got hot signal, but I also think you could be the first to experience issues.. damn LE's. You open one one and problems go away mysteriously
	8:21pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:16 Crap is like residue....it remains....
	🎸 ♥ 8:22pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @8:20 That was funny Don-O.. and the gurl says, I cut myself is that art
	8:26pm A2B: I've stopped listening OTE live on KPFA, not just because it requires the risk of contracting insomnia (considering the time zone difference), but the shows have gotten monotonous lately.
	🎸 ♥ 8:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Cp304 @8:19 Howdy Cp304, hope you get your power back soon!
	8:28pm Don-O: The recent OTE was a tribute to Wendy Carlos. I just downloaded and plan to listen to it later this weekend...
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Don-O @8:28 Oh I would like to hear that, I'll probably do the same!
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:26 Thanks Kat!
	8:29pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:21 Unfortunately, my overhead drop was here when I moved to Seattle in 2002. It is RG-11, but somtimes my internet stops completely, especially in cold weather. I think the center conductor sucks out at times. Guess I ought to get Xfinity out here to reinstall my drop.
	🎸 ♥ 8:32pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:29 I never trusted those 11 fittings, and in all honesty, it don't save much more loss than a sixer
	8:33pm Don-O: Current Bullhead City weather: We'll be hoovering from the mid to upper 80's this weekend and be dancing around the mid-90's by mid-next week. and going back down to the mid-80's later next week. Summer is now stalking us....
	8:41pm A2B: ↳ A2B @8:26 Another reason is that, for some reason, the Icecast Radio service on my VLC player, which had KPFA listed among it's suscribers, has somehow disappeared. And now I'm left wondering if it's just me or if the VLC creators decided to discontinue the service due to some unexplained compatibility issues.
	8:43pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:32 Also, there’s a tree up against the cable and when the wind is from the southwest, the cable gets quite stressed. I’m afraid the stress will eventually pull out the house hook or snap the messenger wire.
	🎸 ♥ 8:43pm Cp304: ↳ A2B @8:41 That also happens to me on my stream follows from time to time, then suddenly will be function able after some time
	🎸 ♥ 8:46pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:43 Well buddy, be assured.. if I were your cable guy, I'd inspect from the modem to the tap
	8:47pm Buddy Runyan: Maybe you could reinstall your drop. While still living in Contra Costa County, the cable company allowed me to reinstall ny overhead driop.
	8:47pm asheville jon: Happy birthday Don-0
	🎸 ♥ 8:48pm Cp304: Don-O are you ready to make a wish? We're ready to sing!
	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Cp304: ↳ Cp304 @8:46 *You're.. sorry. DAMNATION
	8:51pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:46 A year ago I had a tech out to replace a faulty modem/gateway and he assured me my connection was working well. Of course, after many wind storms the signal may not be that great, now.
	8:51pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @8:48 I already sang-a-long to The Crusher. Did enough damage with that one.
	♥ 8:52pm spodiodi: ↳ Cp304 @8:50 I think you had it right the first time :-B but i'm stupid, so maybe not
	🎸 ♥ 8:52pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @8:52 Yes "your" was correct!
	8:52pm A2B: ↳ Cp304 @8:43 Well, mine hasn't since late January. At this point, I won't even bother figuring out what the problem could be. I'm not even a registered user.
	🎸 ♥ 8:53pm Cp304: ↳ spodiodi @8:52 I think your right.. it gets me every time..
	8:53pm Buddy Runyan: Invversion layers suppress thunderstorms!
	🎸 ♥ 8:53pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Cp304 @8:53 now THAT should be you're! haha
	♥ 8:54pm spodiodi: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:52 I get both wrong, often! Thanks, Kat, and hi!
	🎸 ♥ 8:54pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:53 Lol
	🎸 ♥ 8:54pm Kat in the chat: Only 6 minutes of bonus crap
	♥ 8:54pm spodiodi: Thanks, Don-O! Happy, Crappy Birthday!
	🎸 ♥ 8:55pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @8:54 Nice to see you, spodi!
	8:55pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:54 That should have played an hour ago!
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:55 at least it played!
	8:56pm Don-O: We are now 6 minutes left in the show. My thanks to all fer the crappy wishes and showing up. Now I got to walk this chocolate cake off after this implodes....
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Cp304: Happy Birthday Don-O. You are appreciated!
	♥ 8:57pm spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @8:54 Love The Hour of Crap
	8:58pm A2B: Enjoy the rest of your birthday, Don-O, however you spend it! And thanks for the show!
	8:58pm Mr Fab: Crappy birthday dear Don-O… crappy birthday to you…
	8:58pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:56 😀
	8:58pm Buddy Runyan: Fun show!
	9:00pm Don-O: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:58 Thanks, Buddy. I'll talk to you about those scammer calls later this weekend....
	9:00pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Don-O @9:00 Okay
	♥ 9:01pm Roberto: The Weatherman knows nuggets.
	9:01pm Buddy Runyan: Awkward moment
	♥ 9:01pm spodiodi: :)
	♥ 9:02pm Roberto: Whoops, late to the party. Crappy birthday, Don-O!

	6:31pm Don-O: ↳ Krys O. @6:30 Thanks o' plenty, Krys!
	6:32pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:31 I've had this fantasy of a movie musical about LA and this recording was used, and the final shot is a car crashing into a mini-mall. It still makes sense to me....
	🎸 ♥ 6:33pm Cp304: Hey Yo Don-O and crappers
	♥ 6:33pm Krys O.: There's a new shop opening up soon near me called O'Bagel. Sounds pretty crappy.

	6:46pm A2B: So, the A's start the season as Las Vegas' first baseball team. How do you think they'll fare out in the transiition? My take: They'll become the new Chicago Cubs.
	6:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "the_swedish_rhapsody_irdial" by "Unknown" THought the ice cream truck was coming down my street. Was about to run outside to get me some Froze Toes.
	6:50pm A2B: ↳ Song: "the_swedish_rhapsody_irdial" by "Unknown" Did Mary Wing hep you to this?
	6:51pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @6:46 The shaky start remains and they have yet to finalize the stadium plans. Not a good "start".
	6:59pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @6:51 So they currently have no place to play?
	7:01pm A2B: ↳ Song: "first 10 minutes of Tribulation 99" by "Craig Bal... Reminding me of Joe Frank a bit.
	7:04pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:59 In Vegas? It's still up in the air. The mixture of disorganization and desperation is turning out to be a confused mess.
	7:04pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @7:04 An outdoor game in a town where summer temps reach 120 degrees - what can go wrong?!
	7:05pm Don-O: ↳ Don-O @7:04 I suspect their move to Sacramento is secretly plan B JUST in case this whole thing blows up.
	7:06pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:04 Skin cancer! That's why the Arizona D'Back stadium has a retracting roof.
	7:06pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:04 Sounds like Vegas is relapsing back to it's mob roots.
	7:07pm Kat in the chat at the laundromat: Merry Frickin Birthday, Don-O!
	♥ 7:08pm Otis Fodder: Hi Kat, happy launderin'
	7:08pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @7:06 Welp, they did a better job of consumer services than the corporations. Plus, the prices and fees are catching up with them....
	7:08pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat at the laundromat @7:07 Happy Crap to you, Kat!
	7:09pm Kat in the chat at the laundromat: Heya Otis!
	🎸 ♥ 7:09pm Listener Robert: Craig Baldwin is sick?
	7:09pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @7:09 He got himself Neck Cancer. They set up a GoFundMe page for him.
	🎸 ♥ 7:10pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @7:09 Oof!
	♥ 7:10pm Otis Fodder: Sending best wishes to Craig! Can you post the GoFundMe Link Don-O. Thanks!
	7:10pm Don-O: I giggle at the copyright infringement panic attack of yore these days.
	♥ 7:11pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:10 Just over 25 years ago it was something until file-sharing took hold.
	7:11pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:08 Otis, whatever happened to Lomo (or whatever)? The record label that put out Bounces.....I think....
	♥ 7:12pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:11 Folded shortly after, only a couple of releases as I recall. We bought copies of the CD from the label at the time, few hundred and sold them ourselves. We each have one left. Original run was 1000 CDs.
	7:14pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "first 10 minutes of Tribulation 99" by "Craig Bal... Here's that GoFundMe page for Craig: www.gofundme.com...
	♥ 7:14pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:12 Hmmm maybe it was just 500 CDs actually. Getting it confused with a later run/release, Hands.
	♥ 7:14pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Don-O @7:14 Thanks!
	🎸 ♥ 7:14pm Listener Robert: Birthday celebration? You remembered my birthday!
	7:14pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:14 I Have Hands was Illegal Arts, right?

	♥ 7:16pm Otis Fodder: Happy B-Day Robert!
	7:20pm Don-O: I missed sharing my birthday with William Shatner. Mixed feelings about that one.
	7:21pm A2B: ↳ Song: "It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" by "Earnest Gold" Mark Evanier's most favorite movie of all time (so he constantly brags on his blog). And how could you blame him? A Who's Who of Hollywood's comedy elite all in one film!
	♥ 7:21pm spodiodi: ↳ Listener Robert @7:14 Happy Birthday!
	7:22pm Don-O: ↳ A2B @7:21 I got the Criterion Collection of the movie. Commentary track is a fanboy-gasim!
	7:25pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:22 Mark just happens to be one of the voices on the commentary track.
	7:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Sunny" by "Bobby Herb" I like how the radio player shows a pic of Herb Alpert.
	7:31pm Buddy Runyan: “All right My gosh, are you?”
	🎸 ♥ 7:31pm Cp304: Yo Don-O, can I borrow them used candles, power went out while I was in the shower.. 2nd time this week
	7:33pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:31 Eeeek! Did some drunk driver hit a pole and knocked out the transmitter? We got a lot of that in Grover Beach!
	7:33pm Don-O: Oh, I haven't broken into the cake JUST yet...
	7:34pm Don-O: We are now halfway through this show. Mind the gap!
	🎸 ♥ 7:34pm Cp304: I slid get an alert on my werk phone that one of our generates kicked in.. investigatng now..
	🎸 ♥ 7:35pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:34 No worries, got some day light and plenty of charged LEDs
	7:37pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:35 Solid!
	7:39pm A2B: ↳ Mr Fab @7:29 You must be listening through the RadioRethink app. If they still rely on Spotify for music infos, they're not worth using. I'd suggest downloading the stream link and listening through a local media player.
	7:40pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "1977 PeopleMover Disneyland" by "The Walt Discney... Yup, this is certainly before the Tron Tunnel!
	7:42pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "1977 PeopleMover Disneyland" by "The Walt Discney... You can hear many of these BGM tracks in stereo somewhere in this set: www.youtube.com...
	7:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Oh No Not My Baby" by "Maxine Brown" When i listened to KDAY in the '80s it was str8 outta Compton. It did NOT sound like this, haha.
	♥ 7:54pm Otis Fodder: See ya Don-O... time for a late dinner and sleep soon. Happy B-Day-D-O! Bye all.
	7:54pm red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: It's been an awesome fun show Don-O!! HBD again!! 🎊✨🥳✌️🎶
	7:55pm Don-O: ↳ Otis Fodder @7:54 Thanks fer stopping by, Otis. Bug ya later....
	7:59pm A2B: ↳ Don-O @7:40 Funny you should mention that. I was thinking back to the 2010 sequel "Tron: Legacy" and the soundtrack that was allegedly fully produced by Daft Punk. Shortly before the movie's release, it was discovered that other artists were involved with some of the tracks on it but none of them recieved formal credit for their work. And DP themselves released an album's worth of tracks, in a freely downloadable archive file of mp3's on their official fansite, that were meant for the soundtrack but were rejected by Disney.
	8:00pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @7:34 If that happened while at my job in the 1980s, I would sometimes be dispatched to a certain location (often at a pole mounted power supply) where I would connect my motor generator in my company truck to part of the cable system, in order to keep cable service online.
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:00 I just got off the phone with the on call tech, he is at the lot now loading generators in the bucket truck . Power supply batteries last about an hour round here
	🎸 ♥ 8:03pm Cp304: Was that Galactica in the back ground?
	8:06pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:01 Things haven’t changed all that much. I wonder if the power supplies are manufactured by “Alpha.” There’s one just up the street from my home in Seattle.
	8:10pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "a whole lote of early OTE clips" by "Negativland" Yea, Mark!!
	🎸 ♥ 8:10pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:06 Yep, that's what we got.. the green boxes mounted on the poles.. btw, sometimes on call I Revisit these wild skits to keep me sane.. did you ever relisten to this stuff while working?
	8:10pm Buddy Runyan: Sometimes Mark is too cute!
	8:11pm Don-O: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:10 Ummmmm...too cute for the band?! Oh, collective.
	8:12pm Don-O: The birthday cake has just been broken into....
	🎸 ♥ 8:14pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @8:12 Get it Don -O !
	8:16pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @8:14 I just posted the piece for you 'show & tell' nosey bastards....
	8:16pm Kat in the chat: Back from the laundromat, this crap was good company.
	8:17pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:10 I think my overhead drop cable is from the first tap out of a line extender, so the high rf frequencies are “forward tilted.” I’m getting around 700 megabits download.
	🎸 ♥ 8:19pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:16 Heya Kat
	8:20pm Buddy Runyan: Not sure if The Contra Costa County Central Sanitary District had cable TV.
	8:20pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "a whole lote of early OTE clips" by "Negativland" Is this art? It's just crap.....
	🎸 ♥ 8:21pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:17 My thoughts on first out the LE are, you got hot signal, but I also think you could be the first to experience issues.. damn LE's. You open one one and problems go away mysteriously
	8:21pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:16 Crap is like residue....it remains....
	🎸 ♥ 8:22pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @8:20 That was funny Don-O.. and the gurl says, I cut myself is that art
	8:26pm A2B: I've stopped listening OTE live on KPFA, not just because it requires the risk of contracting insomnia (considering the time zone difference), but the shows have gotten monotonous lately.
	🎸 ♥ 8:26pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Cp304 @8:19 Howdy Cp304, hope you get your power back soon!
	8:28pm Don-O: The recent OTE was a tribute to Wendy Carlos. I just downloaded and plan to listen to it later this weekend...
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Don-O @8:28 Oh I would like to hear that, I'll probably do the same!
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:26 Thanks Kat!
	8:29pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:21 Unfortunately, my overhead drop was here when I moved to Seattle in 2002. It is RG-11, but somtimes my internet stops completely, especially in cold weather. I think the center conductor sucks out at times. Guess I ought to get Xfinity out here to reinstall my drop.
	🎸 ♥ 8:32pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:29 I never trusted those 11 fittings, and in all honesty, it don't save much more loss than a sixer
	8:33pm Don-O: Current Bullhead City weather: We'll be hoovering from the mid to upper 80's this weekend and be dancing around the mid-90's by mid-next week. and going back down to the mid-80's later next week. Summer is now stalking us....
	8:41pm A2B: ↳ A2B @8:26 Another reason is that, for some reason, the Icecast Radio service on my VLC player, which had KPFA listed among it's suscribers, has somehow disappeared. And now I'm left wondering if it's just me or if the VLC creators decided to discontinue the service due to some unexplained compatibility issues.
	8:43pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:32 Also, there’s a tree up against the cable and when the wind is from the southwest, the cable gets quite stressed. I’m afraid the stress will eventually pull out the house hook or snap the messenger wire.
	🎸 ♥ 8:43pm Cp304: ↳ A2B @8:41 That also happens to me on my stream follows from time to time, then suddenly will be function able after some time
	🎸 ♥ 8:46pm Cp304: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:43 Well buddy, be assured.. if I were your cable guy, I'd inspect from the modem to the tap
	8:47pm Buddy Runyan: Maybe you could reinstall your drop. While still living in Contra Costa County, the cable company allowed me to reinstall ny overhead driop.
	8:47pm asheville jon: Happy birthday Don-0
	🎸 ♥ 8:48pm Cp304: Don-O are you ready to make a wish? We're ready to sing!
	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Cp304: ↳ Cp304 @8:46 *You're.. sorry. DAMNATION
	8:51pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Cp304 @8:46 A year ago I had a tech out to replace a faulty modem/gateway and he assured me my connection was working well. Of course, after many wind storms the signal may not be that great, now.
	8:51pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @8:48 I already sang-a-long to The Crusher. Did enough damage with that one.
	♥ 8:52pm spodiodi: ↳ Cp304 @8:50 I think you had it right the first time :-B but i'm stupid, so maybe not
	🎸 ♥ 8:52pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @8:52 Yes "your" was correct!
	8:52pm A2B: ↳ Cp304 @8:43 Well, mine hasn't since late January. At this point, I won't even bother figuring out what the problem could be. I'm not even a registered user.
	🎸 ♥ 8:53pm Cp304: ↳ spodiodi @8:52 I think your right.. it gets me every time..
	8:53pm Buddy Runyan: Invversion layers suppress thunderstorms!
	🎸 ♥ 8:53pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Cp304 @8:53 now THAT should be you're! haha
	♥ 8:54pm spodiodi: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:52 I get both wrong, often! Thanks, Kat, and hi!
	🎸 ♥ 8:54pm Cp304: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:53 Lol
	🎸 ♥ 8:54pm Kat in the chat: Only 6 minutes of bonus crap

	🎸 ♥ 8:55pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @8:54 Nice to see you, spodi!
	8:55pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:54 That should have played an hour ago!
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:55 at least it played!
	8:56pm Don-O: We are now 6 minutes left in the show. My thanks to all fer the crappy wishes and showing up. Now I got to walk this chocolate cake off after this implodes....
	🎸 ♥ 8:56pm Cp304: Happy Birthday Don-O. You are appreciated!

	9:00pm Don-O: ↳ Buddy Runyan @8:58 Thanks, Buddy. I'll talk to you about those scammer calls later this weekend....
	9:00pm Buddy Runyan: ↳ Don-O @9:00 Okay
	♥ 9:01pm Roberto: The Weatherman knows nuggets.
	9:01pm Buddy Runyan: Awkward moment
	♥ 9:01pm spodiodi: :)
	♥ 9:02pm Roberto: Whoops, late to the party. Crappy birthday, Don-O!
