Morning Ken. I never normally get to listen at this time, so this is great.
9:09am
Bad Ronald:
No up-skirts? Darn it!
9:11am
Lizardner Dave:
Hello Ken. And Hello Sweden! I'll be seeing you tomorrow!
9:12am
merv:
I need Malvina to start my day... she'll wake anyone up, and annoy others in the office as a bonus!
9:12am
Ken:
No upskirts with cellphones, anyway. Use your SLR.
9:13am
Eric:
Hey, cool Malvina Reynolds song.
9:13am
dei x:
I will start wearing underpants with a photo of Nixon on the bottom. Or of Uncle Dirty. Give those blurry cell phone cameras something to text home about.
9:15am
Bad Ronald:
Nixon would be capital!!
9:16am
Doug:
Wow, that's a pretty convincing TTS voice.
9:17am
Hugh:
R I P U Utah Phillips, you are really missed by the folkies
9:18am
Bad Ronald:
Lennon would be proud...
9:21am
cribley:
I think W played that at the last Bilderberg meeting.
Cheney laying on the piano...
9:22am
Blue Sausage Infant:
Just tuned in, so this might be old news by now, but the Wax Audio material is here:

......great stuff
9:27am
Blue Sausage Infant:
Holy jesus cheese, thank you for the NWW; I'm still waiting (eagerly) for my copy of Huffin' Rag Blues...
9:32am
Bad Ronald:
Thanks for the WA URL BSI!
9:32am
swamo:
Ooooh, a little western leader g on g action! Gooood morning!
9:32am
Negator:
NWW caused my lions to inflame! Thanks, Ken!
9:34am
Negator:
NWW caused my loins to inflame! Thanks, Ken!
9:34am
baby on mornin train:
that nww killed. thanks!
9:36am
Ken:
What's the name of that Ukrainian woman again?
9:38am
GUMBY:
Why was that guy so worried that librarians are coming? They seem harmless enough to me.
9:40am

Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
Thanks for Tom, now I know it will be a good day.
9:43am
Bad Ronald:
Excellent Ramones cover by TW!!!!
9:43am
Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
I guess you got the Priest I sent you on Facebook?
9:43am
dei x:
oh Tom, may he have have good health and active recording for many decades more
9:46am
Ken:
I dont check into Facebook much no 'mo. Not enough there there.
9:49am
Ike:
Gosh, that never happened to me in China.
Facebook doesn't do it for me either, except for the Visual Bookshelf tool, where you can catalog, organize, and rate all the books you've read. Useful for me, as my memory is slipping.
9:50am
Swami:
What?! sacrilege about Facebook! What is there not enough of Ken, Western Leader g on g action? What about Mob Wars!
9:52am
Ken:
Precisely, Swami, I am looking for a social network that will provide me with real-time streaming video of Julija Tymoschenko and Queen Rania of Jordan playing Scrabulous. Is that asking so much?
9:54am
jhn:
I wouldn't use facebook or myspace at all if if it weren't for the fact that my peers all expect to be able to contact me through it. it doesn't solve any problems except the one of "i have too much time" or "i get too much done in the day."
9:54am
Swami:
Apparently yes. Way too much. I am convinced. Facebook is dead. Long live FAcebook!
9:54am
Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
Then where does Ken cyber-hang? Does he have Last.fm or Shelfari or some other thing?
9:58am
dei x:
I have resisted all invitations to Facebook, as I already invested my time on MySpace. If I really wanted to post the videos, calendars, and scandal that MySpace frowns upon or does not support, I'd do it on a real URL. With no ads.
10:00am
Trent:
play track 10 from NWW's Huffin Rag Blues, that's the best track.
10:04am
Doug:
I love how she says "Mt. Hayp." Please have Vicki say "Mt. Hayp" again!
10:04am
Barney:
benzene and benzine are different enough, but benzyne is an entirely different beastie!
10:07am
Vicki:
Mt. Hayp
10:07am
Billy Jam:
hey Ken, good show!...the SKYPE connection sounded real good and with a better mic would make it even cleaner in sound......PS I agree with you about Facebook and find MySpace (especially trying to send messages) even more annoying/pointless these days.
10:08am
Vicki:
I even bought a headset, unfortunately no one told me that you need a usb one if you're in mac
10:08am
Ken`:
Since getting booted off of Flickr, I dont cyber hang anywhere.. I'm saving myself for the Free Music Archive and then I'll be hanging there.
10:11am
Vicki:
this is a good track (wrote that for people who look at the playlist after the show)
10:12am
Bad Ronald:
I'm used to getting thrown out of physical clubs haven't been cyber-banned yet but here's still time for Ken to throw me off the playlist comments...
10:12am
Ken:
Wouldn't it be nice if you could identify which track you were referring to! How would we do that?
10:13am
Laurie:
Hiiiiiiiii Ken.
10:13am
Bad Ronald:
title reference?
10:13am
dei x:
you can't just show up on open comment boards with a handle like "bad ronald" without some basis in reality
10:13am
John from Oslo:
Skype is impressive! No time lag to speak of either.
Benzin is petrol (gasoline) I guess.
Nice show!
10:14am
JJZ:
You have ot do the math with the approximate time things start after the fact with the clickable songs.
10:14am
Swami:
This track rocks also.
10:15am
Vicki:
I guess the comments need time stamping from 0-3 hours rather than 9am-12pm?
10:15am
Doug:
Thanks Vicki! Dreamy.
10:18am
JJZ:
Ideally there would be a magic button that would intersperse the comments with the songs, but I wouldn't want to have to be the guy to create it.
10:22am
Lizardner Dave:
The time stamping is fne. Just tell people to subtract 9. Hey Americans have to remember to subtract 12 when we travel abroad.
10:23am
JJZ:
Ultimately the easiest answer is to say "Golly, I like this Z-Trip song."
10:23am
Vicki:
can anyone recommend the best skype headset to buy?
10:24am
Ike:
Another problem: the streams, particularly the AAC+, are a few minutes behind the FM broadcast. So, when checking archives, even if you do the math, you can't be sure precisely which track someone is commenting on. So, I'm with JJZ.
This track by Johnny Boy is good.
10:25am
jcityfightstyle + dlroth:
uh-oh blowfly got up this am!
10:25am
Negator:
Can't wait for the FMA, as well, hope to be donating music , too. Ken, quick edit! Ha! Ha! Laugh! Laugh!
10:26am
Vicki:
my uk stream is one minute behind - it makes it difficult to do a live playlist here for my show! it's all out.
10:28am
sebastian in santiago:
just to say hi and to annoy people trying to read the comments column with yet another auto-update.
10:31am
Ken:
Hi Sebastian! How are things in the southern hemi?

Is this the Swedish Chef doing Prince?

Hey Laurie, your internet stalker asked me to fill in for him by stalking your accuplaylist comments, just a heads up.
10:35am
Ken from Hyde Park:
The George Bush song earlier had me laughing heartily while I was driving around. At work now and I may go to the web site to look for more stuff like that.
10:35am

Ken from HP - Blue Sausage Infant posted the URL above for Wax Audio.
10:37am
JJZ:
Speaking of the Swedish Chef, those muppet youtube videos are all pretty good. http://adweek.blogs.com/adfreak/2008/07/muppets-storm-y.html has links to them all. They do versions of classical music mostly.
10:42am
Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
Mmmm, cookies

Who *did* put that dead bird in my mailbox?
A classic piece of literature from the modern age.

Vivian:
I actually attempted vegan scotcharoos. However, people were intrigued with what constitutes a scotcharoo, not so much that they were vegan. That's my story for this morning.
10:47am
Bad Ronald:
Woofers!
10:49am

this is driving my dog crazy

jcityJensen:
Am I getting through to you, Mr. Ken? You get up on your little twenty-one inch woofers and howl about America and democracy. There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only W, and F, and M, and U, Jersey, Union Carbide, and City.
10:57am
Lizardner Dave:
Hello Larry. Keep doing a good show.
11:01am
Effcee Sea:

jcityJensen:
All necessities provided, all anxieties tranquilized, all boredom amused. And I must ask you, Mr. ken, is to let the ROTH preach this evangel.
11:08am
-max-:
Late morning, Outlook keeps crashing, forced to install yet another WXP Service Pack, phone keeps ringing, employees interrupting my enjoyment of Ken's show, asking me to help them with their melons...
I wish I were home.
11:13am
adam:
where did you see the black bear, ken?
11:13am
jcityJensen:
The bear WILL ATONE!
11:14am
Ken:
I saw my 4th black bear of 2008 in Walpack, New Jersey. But that's not the bear pictured here. My pic is not worth posting, all I had with me at the time was my celphone.
11:15am
Bad Ronald:
Who needs help with their melons?
11:16am
JJZ:
Golly, I have a fondness for the Puffy Remix album.
11:17am
adam:
I befriended a wise old grey rabbit in my neighborhood this year.
11:20am
Drew:
Puffy is quality.
11:21am
Blue Sausage Infant:
Puffy is making it hard to work with all this booty-shaking. Everywhere, bunny-rabbits vomiting rainbows of rancid splendor...
11:25am
Lizardner Dave:
This set is everything that is good and right about Ken's show.
If Zatumba, a train whistle and David Lee Roth got involved it would be perfect.
The signal is strong.
11:27am
barney:
cool james sounds somehow different.
11:28am
TTTTTT:
Interesting bear photo sequence..
Anyone know if it's going to all that effort just for some birdseed? Must be very hungry in that case. No berries or fish around? Or maybe it's a delicacy, like snapping turtle eggs are to raccoons. Or maybe it's just fun jungle gym sorta action.
Hmm.
11:29am
Ken:
Yep, black bears go after bird feeders all the time.
11:30am
cribley:
could be a bees nest in the birdhouse. they loves the honeys.
11:34am
cat:
is this how YOU make them ?
SCOTCHAROO'S
1 c. sugar
1 c. peanut butter
6 oz. chocolate morsels
1 c. white syrup
6 c. Rice Krispies
6 oz. butterscotch morsels
Combine sugar and syrup in saucepan. Bring to boil while stirring. Remove from heat and add peanut butter. Stir well. Add to Rice Krispies in large bowl. Mix well. Spread mix evenly in a buttered 4 x 9 inch pan. Melt morsels together on low heat, stirring constantly, or in microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. Spread evenly on top of Scotcharoo's. When cool, cut into 2 x 2 inch squares.

11:39am
TTTTTT:
Bears and bird seed. I did not know!
Wonder what the birds think about that? With easy-to-getaway wings, maybe they're ok in the bear off-hours.
Birdseed + honey. Side of scotch.
11:41am
Ike:
Dei X, ha! That's the comment of the day.
Cat, I beg you not to torture the poor harmless apostrophes in such a way. What belongs to the scotcharoo?
