9:09am
chris:
We'll know the computer problem is solved when it starts singing "Dasiy" right?
9:10am
HAL 9000:
You're getting over-excited, Ken. Stressing your system this way at age 50 could endanger the station's mission. Don't you think? Just a moment...just a moment... a problem up on the tower...way up. You should probably climb up there to make repairs.
9:11am
Ken:
Hello all! Didn't Nachum pull out a great song?!
9:11am
Parq:
Whoa, this is really cool. I turned the radio on before turning the puter audio off, and what with the lag, the two feeds are in synch rhythmically. The effect is, well, very FMU.
9:11am
Eric:
Hey, this Jimmy Bell is good! Maybe Nachum should always choose your music? He could be like your personal music director.
9:12am
Ghengis Jung:
Is it 15 minutes long?
9:12am
dei x:
yes. now I will adjust my food pyramid accordingly.
9:12am

Jimmy Bell (10:56)
That should give you enough time to fix the problem...
9:14am
Ken:
I know! Nachum coulda picked out a 3 minute song but he picked this! WHat a guy. No pics today, sorry. no sleep, no pics. Thjanks for the observed birthday wishes!!
9:15am
Cecile:
Ken, as annie says, life begins at 50.

9:19am
Ghengis Jung:
Ken, Nachum may have been onto something with the Sooooon Ra - he might have pulled a sidelong track and set you up for a lengthy troubleshooting session...
9:20am
Ghengis Jung:
Are those corn dogs sitting on the ark of the covenant?

Hi, Ken--i posted about yr. birthday on WFMU's Beware of the Blog this morning, but I didn't know if you were telling people how old you were. HAPPY BIRTHDAY anyway!

9:37am
Doug from DC:
Really, really!
9:38am
Ghengis Jung:
Is that what Toad in the Hole is?
9:38am
Cecile:
put your head in your lap and explore the wonders of Port Sayaid.
9:41am
Vicki:
Toad in the Hole is like a Corn Weenie, only it's in a dish. Sort of flat. Sausage surrounded by "Yorkshire Pudding" (but that's another story) type batter. Not on a stick. I didn't know what a Corn Weenie was before Mr Proft started telling us about it
9:42am
chris:
Mmmmm, batter.
9:42am
annie:
hey all, just made it home in time for part two of ken's diatribe on sleeplessness. happy birthday ken! say it!
9:43am
Lizardner Dave:
Crap, I have to go to a meeting for the rest of the show. Well, there's always archives.
9:44am
dc pat:
where I come from it's a "corn dog" and now I only eat the veggie versions....which suck...so i don't eat them either...
9:45am
Chris From West Orange Plumbing Suppl:
Aw man Ken, just wanted to say that you know I LOVE THE SHOW, and can you play Fluffy for me man. WOOO I LOVE THE SHOW, IIIIII LLLLOOOOVVVEEE IIIIITTTT
9:45am

I'm reminded I need to visit this one place in the Chicagoland area that's known for really good corn dogs.
9:45am
owen:
is a weenie a thing in it's own right?
9:46am
Cecile:
yes it is colloquial for hot dog, such as "weenie roast"
9:46am
BSI:
dc pat:
My solution is to use rocket-fuel strength curry/vindaloo sauce as a dipper. Makes even the most horrifyingly dreadful veggie corndogs awesome.
9:46am
Cecile:
not to be confused with "sausage fest"
9:47am
listener mark:
We toast an English Muffin, cut a hole in each center, place them on a hot skillet, and drop an egg in each. That's our "Toad In The Hole."
9:47am
Cecile:
wouldn't a heavily battered tofu cylinder be way better than fake hot dogs?
9:48am
BSI:
lovely groove to this one.
9:48am
Cecile:
mark, I grew up with that being called a "one-eyed jack" or "egg in the hole"
9:49am
High and Confused in New Jersey:
Ayo guys, what the heck is all this Corn Weenie stuff about.
9:49am

Sorry Ken, forgot that it was your birthday! Happy Birthday. When will the official holiday celebrating your birth be enacted? Where is the postage stamp with your likeness?
9:49am
annie:
cecile, just a heads-up. life is great and ken ahs soooo much to look forward to, now that he has reached this pinnacle. 55 and feelin'great!
9:51am
Larry's alter-ego:
ken, I understand you are celebrating a birthday today. Will there be donuts? And how will you fit all the celebrants in the boat?
9:51am
Ken:
Will someone bring High and Confused up to speed? Because I am not capable of it.
9:51am
Ghengis Jung:
@High and Confused in New Jersey: For many years, people believe that the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about, but it has recently been discovered that, in fact, Corn Weenie is what it's all about...
9:53am
deix:
rilly, rilly. 'tis.
9:53am
JJZ:
I admit, I don't actually care about Corn Weenie fever.
9:54am
jan:
I think I have heard every program since the advent of Corn Weenie,
but I can't recall if the origin of this mantra was ever discussed. Ken, would you mind explaining?
9:54am
High and Confused:
Oh I get it not. (As I take a hit) So then Corn Weenie is the word
9:55am
raga:
ken, i think you're a corn weenie. REALLY, REALLY!
9:56am

so it's two of us
9:59am
BSI:
Kenny G: There can be only one.
Don't worry about corn weenie overdose. It's JUST.NOT.POSSIBLE.
9:59am
jeremy, the listener:
speed please!
9:59am
Cecile:
He has two fans.
9:59am
Really really poetic:
I'm wound up by I Dream of Jeannie,
Or a Yellow Submarine Blue Meanie,
Or a James Bond shaken right martini,
Or a gassed-up gift-wrapped Lamborghini,
Or a magic wispy sheer bikini,
Or a plate of kick-ass tetrazzini,
But what really straightens a Pisa leanie,
And grows fresh hair on Mr. Cleanie,
The torpedo fit for a king or queenie,
The realest of dealies, life's gift...CORN WEENIE!
10:01am
Cecile:
less talk, more weenie. ;D
10:02am
High and Confused in New Jersey:
Kenny G is the man. He's From Vagina
10:02am
Cecile:
but Ken, where can I find that Joy Division live thing you play all the time? It's great.

High and Confused in New Jersey:
By the way, does anybody wanna get high

Ken:
I'm a Kenny G fan too I bet!

10:03am

I'd like to be at your birthday roast, representing the out of context reaction footage of the out of sobriety Dean Martin. Because you DESERVE a bash that future generations can buy after seeing it on TV.
10:04am
gerardo:
so we're "three of a perfect pair"
10:06am

it takes "discipline" to be a Kenny G. fan.

10:10am

Yeah, but they were so damn good at it.
Genghis, this is actually really pretty!
10:13am
Ken:
Put that in conrexr for us Par - who is a "good" guitar player?
10:13am

Great edit there at the beginning!
10:21am

10:22am
really really:
I can't get anything done I'm laughing so hard.
corn weenie
10:22am
jan:
This concentration on Corn Weenie- it's very much the programming style of Kenny G, despite your assertions otherwise.
10:23am
Ken:
Yes, what I would give for Michael Proft to do some marathon spots for me. Or to speak at my roast tonight.
10:25am
Cecile:
i hate to be impatient, but it can't be helped.
when's mine up?
10:26am

Hey Doug, what are the odds of getting played in the same set?

what a feeling!
10:26am
Ken:
Next up Cecile! You done the right thing to speak up! I have my head up my ass, I bet!
And don't forget to give credit to the late Mohammed El Bakkar for the basis of the Corn Weenie song "Haun Melee" (Sway with Me) on the 1957 Audio Fidelity LP or CD "Port Said."

Good morning, Ken and everyone. What the f%&k did I walk in on?!? This is the comment list from Pink Flamingos ....

we called cocaine povich in college (philly) due to maury's rep from his days as the local tv broadcaster when he was evidently quite the zooted up white man about town, evidently during that era (whenever that was) that name was actually widely used "on the street"...

@cecile:
thanx very much for the tip
btw, i received this mail yesterday:
"For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition
and health.
It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional
studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausage and fat and suffer
fewer heart attacks than Americans.
CONCLUSION:
Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you."
@ken:
when will remixes be available for downloading?
11:01am

I assumed it'd be a marathon premium.
11:01am

that's hilarious!
I am gobsmacked by these remixes.
11:03am

Cecile, you really don't want to be gobsmacked. Trust me.

Not even close to first comment!
11:07am

You're not Sean Daily! Sean would never forget the "whoo hoo". Who are you and what have you done with our pal??
11:09am
Cecile:
Just lookin' out for ya ....
11:09am
annie:
wooohooo!! second comment after sean's.
11:09am
Ken:
Fake Sean, honestly.
You're not only NOT even close to the first comment, you are COMMENT NUMBER 177.
The real Sean would never comment without knowing which number comment he was.
11:10am
Carmichael:
Whoops. Mis-named post meant FOR Cecile. Jeez, too many corn weenies ....
11:11am
Cecile:
Yeah, It was a weird but not completely unpleasant experience. ;D.
11:11am
Cecile:
becoming Carm for a minute, that is.
11:12am
Ogunh:
This is the first comment after the last comment.
11:13am
Cecile:
Ken, it's the real Sean.
He just got a big head after BIlly Jam dedicated a show to him. ;D
11:14am
Cecile:
expecting us to know what comment, geez.
11:14am
gerardo:
@ken:
i started thinking that sean daily was an invention, like emmanuel goldstein...
@cecile and carmichael:
gobsmacked - a new new word
becoming Carm? sounds like being john malkovich or something?
11:16am
BillyJam:
hey Ken, just sent over Arabic/Scratch remix of Corn Weenie via YouSEndIt.... See email for download link....thanks!
11:16am
Cecile:
exactly
11:17am
Sean Daily:
Okay, okay, I'm not exactly up to snuff... I haven't had much sleep... and doing "Woo-hoos" aren't exactly easy you know... I am, after all, an AAAARRRRRRR-tist.
Anyway...
First comment from Sean Daily today with "Woo hoo!" in it! Woo hoo!
11:18am
thelma:
Locating the Port Said Album, I find the track is " Haun Meelee" track one on the second side, translated as "Sway Here." It is a very lively belly dance album, recommended for anyone attempting the art , or for someone into folk classics of Arabic music. The cover has a fairly nude dancer ,with severe eye make- up and glitter nipple protectors. She could use a corn weenie.
11:18am
Carmichael:
Cecile, being me even for a minute is worse than being gobsmacked.
But at least you don't end up on the Jersey turnpike after being me.
11:20am

I'm going to count you as a few years older, so as not to have you younger than me by 5 yrs. It's Andy math.

kath of chi:
ken i can hear your nadis choking from the strain.
11:22am

alternate nostril breathing-- isn't it just promoting oxygen deficiency? if it's done long enough, wouldn't it just lead to a lengthy sleep or maybe a nap?
11:22am
BSI:
alternate nostril weenie!
I'll tell you when to breathe.........
11:24am

LOL. I love the alternate nostril breathing. I'm at home sick and clogged too.

Ken, your a whack job but I can't stop listening.........your hilarious!
11:25am
Doug from DC:
Cecile, great job on your remix. I got called into a meeting right after, so I couldn't say at the time. I heard Kenny G read the Cupcake Dog poem in the archives yesterday. Way cool! But I should mention that Intangible Arts is BSI's blog, not mine.
11:25am
paul:
actually that should read There's A Place at Coney Island That Sells Really Really Mediocre Fish Sandwiches
11:27am
BSI:
yeh, I belted Kenny G an email after he said that, but no on-air correction! That Kenny Gee is too damned professional! But it was great to hear the poem delivered by The Master.....
11:27am
Cecile:
Oh, geez. I'm sorry. But hey, BSI went to my blog! Coolness!
and thanks!

Great stuff Ken!

It is rumored that Scott Asheton went to the Great Fillmore in the sky from consuming too many corn weenies, but I hate to bring this up, for I think you have exhausted that tribute ... but then ... this may be coded continuation that never ends???? Hmmmm?

I made Michael a Flickr page where you can see more of his paintings. It's all older stuff, since that's all I had handy, but I'll be uploading his newer works soon. I don't have a link now because Flickr is blocked here at work, but if you do a search for Michael Proft you should be able to find him.

Parq:
One minute listening to Ken on FMU is like two minutes with any other radio station.
11:44am
Ken:
That was a terrible insult, Parq. And on my observed birthday, no less.
11:45am
Cecile:
no, two minutes of Ken on Wednesday is better than one minute of Ken on Wednesday

Greg G from DC:
YES, SCOTT and not Ron Asheton ... thank's for the correction Ken, and my apologies to Ron and family .... this is what happens when you work through the night non-stop starting with Mary McSorlrley and ending it with Ken, I don't use hours to keep track of time anymore, just which FMU DJ I've been listening to! Wow, ... I just realized how strange I've become!
11:48am

Why does that misassignment happen here with some regularity, Cecile? I ain't never been confused about it.

gerardo:
yes, u are, vicki
12:04pm
Cecile:
I dunno.
When I occasionally write stuff about like metal bands in free weeklies and whatnot, I either get mistaken for a guy or get marriage proposals relayed to me through friends.
No marriage proposals from guys thinking I'm a guy, or girls knowing I'm a girl, though.
