9:24am
paul:
hello ken
9:25am
Ken:
Larry is real and he is in trouble. If anybody wants to write a letter to him, I will forward them. It would mean a lot to him. Letters are good. My computer crashed which is why the show is so off-kilter...
9:25am
jan:
gute yontiff, ken! Wondering if Listener Larry is real. really really real.
Or is he like courteney T edison? Coincidently another listener wonders the same thing
9:26am
cat:
Maybe he's some kind of alterego..?
9:46am
steve:
Ken's programme - a beacon of hope in a sea of despair.
9:47am
Ken:
This hasn't happened to me in four years, when I saw my playlist disappear before my very eyes during the RNC Remix..

9:51am

9:52am
annie:
i have no teevee, so i'm hoping to find a live feed on the net... or maybe just invite myself to the nearest teevee.
9:52am
GP:
Ken,
is that really Amy in that photo or that performance artist over in England that dresses like her and acts like she is passed out, etc. in public?
9:54am
HotRod:
That image is terribly frightening, Ken! Palin Whitehouse?
9:54am

9:59am
Swami:
Palin= Quayle with dugs.
9:59am
annie:
funny, just watching that now
10:00am
sahak:
can voting for mccain and palin be considered a impious act?
10:00am
dc pat:
what's more scary is that she was asked what specific papers she reads and couldn't name one.

10:02am
Parq:

10:04am
Laurie:
In honor of VP debate tomorrow and the sinking economy, I bought this lamp: http://www.baseworld.com/item.php?ref_item=1581
I think you'll agree with me that it is awesome.
That store also has fake taxidermy. Like, colorfully painted wooden moose and cow heads. The also have "stuffed animals": They look like life-size children's toys. Witness the moose: http://www.lifeprojectmusic.com/images/moose.jpg
I can't remember if any real taxidermy is involved with those or if it's all fake. I kind of want one.
10:04am

Too funny...I needs me a bigger monitor..I did not realize that was a shopped photo of Sarah on Amys body....Amy CAN look pretty disturbing sometimes.
10:13am
cat:
LOL - genius!
10:13am
Laurie:
I've got a bracelet too.
10:13am
Bob:
I'm impressed that, having lost your playlist, you're still adding images as you go instead of waiting until the show is done.
10:13am
Liz B.:
I'm with Laurie, "I've got a pen" is the best!
10:14am
Doug:
I need the 1 minute debate ... where to get?
10:14am
Lizardner Dave:
It's Talktober!!!
10:14am

10:16am
david c.:
Ken - love the show - is there a source for the 1-minute debate audio??
10:16am
Negator:
There should be more Kenny Rodgers in Africa!
10:17am
Ken:
I'm sure if you search for the one minute debate you will find it, and whoever does, please post the link here... it is a youtube video I think.
Wow, that guy is just like me - I haven't listened to your show in a few weeks either! It's like he's inside my head!
10:43am

What is Larry in trouble for? He kind of scares me.

I think Larry is a stalker. And you know what that means: IT'S STALKTOBER!!!!
10:52am
bzul:
Tics and treats and scaaary fun in Mocktober!
Palindrone: Sentence of curious construction that shows the same vacancy forward or backward, perkiness notwithstanding.
Sarahndipity: Unexpected lode of glee to be mined when the Queen of All Dips drops onto the national stage. Example - "It was pure Sarahndipity that Tina Fey's bag of tricks got fresh-stuffed so suddenly."
10:52am
GP:
How bout that "9 is a magic number" song?
10:54am
Carmichael:
Good morning Ken and constituency.
I'm upset that I missed Motorhead, but that's tempererd by my hearing the Black Talent Workshop.
Funky, funky Commies.
10:55am
JCityJensen:
any more boat casts?
10:56am
marionfrenchie:
I think Larry is none other than the devil and he possessed Trouble yesterday and is trying to get us to do bad things through Ken's show.
I'm kind of glad Palin's overshadowing Biden with all of this media attention. I like Biden, but he has a tendency to put his foot in his mouth. That "articulate" comment was sooooooo cringe-worthy. How long ago was that? Four months? Six? It feels like it's been a year two years since the campaigning started.
10:59am
Ken:
Hello DickDong! That does sound like Geesin, don't it! JCJ - there will definitely be more boatcasts! I hear Arthur KIll calling my name!
11:01am
Laurie:
Great campaign updates:

Laurie, the nude Vice Prez Barbie take on that blog -- it burns us, precious.
11:08am

I'm enjoying the enthusiasm of this group.

Early Christmas is right! Barack to the Future!
11:16am
Carmichael:
I just lost the stream also.
11:18am
Liz B.:
Sorry about the brief blip in the real and windows streams, I reset the server, so hopefully the universe is aligned once again. Keep me posted if anything sounds wacky again.
11:18am
sahak:
woohoo billy jam!
11:19am
HotRod:
What a wonderful show, Ken!
We should organize a Ken & HotRod DJ night! Besides, everyone needs to see your ridiculously good-looking goatee!
11:22am
Parq:
Dubya stopped being a barrel of laffs for me around the time that I realized we were entrenched in wars in two countries, the Constitution was in shreds and the economy was in shambles. Largely for that reason, I have to force myself to see the funny side of Vice President Barbie.
Will do, Miz Liz. Thanks for being on it. So far so good.
11:25am
Rob W:
Ken, I might suggest DC's Tavern in Hoboken as a venue for 7 Second Delay in Hoboken, very FMU-friendly place on 8th St. west of Jefferson. Then again, Louise and Jerry's is also friendly to FMU and it's right on Washington St. which means you could get passers-by involved.
11:27am
GP:
Liz B, Is there anything you can't do? Thank You
11:28am
C:
And may I suggest a tavern in DC for one of your remote broadcasts? I think you have a substantial audience in the nation's capitol.
11:29am
Ken From Hyde Park:
I saw some news about the bill on internet radio royalties. Is that good or bad for WFMU? And how about that $700B bailout? Do we need to call our senators today? I get the feeling we're sunk with or without the bailout.
11:30am

i miss dc for the range of good food there.. miss the red sea the most
11:31am

Rob W:
Speaking of Curumin, Curumin is among the many Brazilian luminaries playing the Red Hot + Rio HIV / AIDs benefits at BAM in Brooklyn Dec 4/5 - good cause, just thought I'd mention it. Don't know if Nancy Pelosi is planning to attend...
11:46am

I gotta duck out. Good luck Larry! Sphinctober?
11:52am
Bad Ronald:
Brazil!
11:53am
Wendy del Formaggio:
This totally off-topic, but did anyone living in downtown Jersey City get woken up by the low-flying helicopter formation at 6:30 this morning? It creeped me out. Wha' was that all about?
11:53am
Harvey:
Larry sounds depressed.
11:54am
annie:
spraying for med-fly?
11:54am
GP:
10-4 on that annie
11:57am
bzul:
Descending to the bait:
Sphinctober, 2008 Anal Domini
And the Jersey choppers were off course, They wanted to spray for Tenafly.
11:58am
Wendy del Formaggio:
I doubt it, Annie. They weren't moving. They were hovering in the same spot for a LONG time. I just checked nj.com and maybe it had to do with the bad fire in Hoboken this a.m.
Bzul: haha, that's funny.
11:59am
Ike:
Even more off-topic: ARRRGH! I have no insurance and I need expensive meds now. Right now. Hmmmm, maybe I need to drive to Canada this weekend. Crap!
12:02pm
HotRod:
Holy shit! My family and I used to live on that block where the woman died this morning. Like two doors down! This is terrible.
12:02pm
Bad Ronald:
yes Bzul very funny indeed!
12:04pm
kr:
I heard those choppers this AM - I was definitely thinking there was some bad ass shit going down.
12:08pm
Wendy del Formaggio:
kr: yeah, in addition to feeling disoriented from being woken up by their weird sound, I felt sort of paranoid. They looked to be hovering over the tunnel entrances, which made me really worried. I do think they were related to the fire. Maybe they belonged to the t.v. news shows or something.
12:09pm
jojo:
Freed's the man but this is ridiculous, Mr. G is struggling to find some authority to lash out at...Irwin bashing is cool but Ken??
