I used to work in a prison where the inmates regularly smuggled cellphones in to the jail by swallowing them. at least, i can't think of any other way they'd have ended up with cellphones in their intestines. one guy got caught becuase he forgot to switch it off before ingesting it and it rang. the x-ray was hilarious, the reason (ordering hard drugs from outside) not so.
9:34am
too poppy:
oh my god, it's too poppy, let's all change!

which german radio are you talking about? i am from germany and don't know one that random…
11:04am
Michael:
German radio sounds kind of good---but I don't know (but I've been told) that Berlin is German the way New York is U.S.American.
I recall hearing that Bob Seger did some songs for the Klan; anyone else heard this?
11:06am
Dj Donna Summer:
Seger is a red-blooded AMERICAN DUDE- not no pinko-commie calan member.. [sarcasm]
German radio- yeah, it's sort of awesome, but sort of shit
I thnk we were listening to Radio Fritz, maybe MotoFm

11:14am
Esopus the Dragon:
Donna's show wasn't allways 100% perfect. I remember that awful am gold set, And before Donna came up to speed on rave, that "Firestarter" The Prodigy track was spun. Barf! I love Donna anyhoo!
11:15am
Mickey Mephistopheles:

Jeff M:
Oh, my. I just woke up, and this jangly clattery buzzy club magic might be too much for my nerves 'til I've been awake longer. But if I bail, I'll try hitting it later from the archives, and who knows, then it might be just the thing!

12:00pm

12:05pm
Otis F:

12:06pm
Andy in Berlin:
you're welcome to come - but the place is a mess
