"Accu"playlist
  12:00am
Jessica:

That Mockinpott track was remarkable. I actually stopped mid-typewriter*cide-rant to remark on it. (1936 Remington Noiseless Portable. Tragic violence. Gruesome photo — no, wait! horns!)
  12:03am
Jessica:

Laurie: The typewriter came from a little town near my family's place of origin. In Norway. [Swedish-borne Norwegian joke.]
  12:06am

  12:29am
Joe:

EVAN IS AWESOME. HE IS THE BESTEST EVER. SHOUT OUT TO TITOS VODKA. MY NEXT TWO NIGHTS ARE BOOKED. WORD SON.
  12:31am
Sybil:

Television Yay!
  12:33am
E.L.:

Titos— Texas's's best.

I echo Sybil. This feels like an old friend.
  12:46am
Joe:

Ev... so sorry for being rude... but your tunes are getting us all rowdy...
  12:48am
Mark:

Hi Evan - Just tuned in during the past 1/2 half hour or so. Sounds great. Thanks for making this never ending day of work enjoyable!
  12:55am
efd:

you're welcome Mark, thanks for the comment!
glad you guys enjoyed hearing Television as much as I did
  1:01am
Laurie:

This guy? F'real?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marty_McSorley
  1:09am
efd:

well, let's just say he will add to the confusion already being caused by the presence of Mike Lupica and Kenny G
  1:15am
?:

Lets not forget the famous "futbol" player, Ivan "Funkovich" Davinsky
  1:18am
Laurie:

THE LIGHTS ARE ON:

http://atvs.vg.no/player/?id=16995
  1:21am
efd:

awesome!
although I have to admit I am pretty distracted by "Spilte skjorta av Tyskland i oppvarmingskamp"
  1:24am
Sybil:

Awwwwwww...
  1:25am
efd:

omg, that cub is TINY!
  1:29am
Laurie:

I KNOW. She has three more. They're probably out of frame in a cubpile. One time, one cub was cuddling with mommy and the other three were in a cubpile. They all seemed to wake up at the same time, and then they nuzzled and snuggled into and onto each other in an attempt to get comfortable again. It was so cute!!!
  1:32am
E.L.:

Watching that video feed to "the walk" is pretty hilarious.
  1:33am
efd:

haha! glad you appreciated that, that ended up working pretty well!
  1:34am
Laurie:

The zoo where these lions reside is cage-free -- 150 acres of wild terrain.

They also work with the World Wildlife Fund.

No clue what they do in the wintertime, though!
  1:34am
Amanda:

I must tell you all this is the cutest lion family I have ever seen on a webcam, in my life. Thank you.

And now I know how to do the Walk, which is also important.
  1:35am
efd:

there's more dances where that came from, believe me!
And by the end of the summer you'll know them all.
  1:44am
Amanda:

I can only imagine how much better that mic break sounded for those listeners who *didn't* have the webcam on. "Oh look, the little lion almost fell over!"

When everyone has learned all the disco dances... only then can the EFD meetup take place.
  1:44am
Randy in NC:

efd - this new CD sounds great doesn't it? Did you get a chance to see any of their 21 shows live on the web?
  1:47am
efd:

I didn't, I actually didn't find out they were being webcast until they were up to the later albums that I wouldn't have been as interested in. Probably wouldn't have been able to see them anyway with the time difference.
  1:49am
Randy in NC:

They came on usually at 4PM our time. Audio and video quality suffered from a low bandwidth link, but it sure looked like they and the crowd were having fun.
  1:57am
Randy in NC:

Espo! Cheevers!, Green!
  1:58am
efd:

Bucyk! Sanderson! Hodge! McKenzie!

goodnight everybody!
  1:59am
E.L.:

See you next week, Evan. Thanks for the rock and dance moves!
  1:59am
Sybil:

Bah none!
  2:01am
Laurie:

Ha ha, the fourth lion is behind Mommy Lion.
  2:01am
Laurie:

Good night!
  2:02am
Sybil:

Could it be...

Thanks for tonight all, especially EFD!!!
  2:05am
efd:

that's it, thanks Sybil!
