Yay Charlie!

Guten Morgen--and thanks for the Felix Kubin!

  9:22am Charlie:

Dance dance dance dance dance to the radio...
  9:24am Parq:

Always thought that, way more than "Love Will", was *the* classic Joy Div song. The agony in Ian C's voice is palpable.
  9:27am Charlie:

Agreed, Parq...
  9:28am Michael:

Can't do any work with Charlie on!
  9:30am Charlie:

That's because I've got you in a mind meld, Michael.
  9:31am Laura L:

Is it hot in here or is it just the radio?

I remember Pink Fuzzy Boom Box! Loved their early stuff before they sold out.
  9:32am Charlie:

I am hot -- oh, wait, I'm wearing two sweaters
  9:33am Charlie:

That radio is to match your slippers and robe...
  9:36am Ron:

Welcome back Charlie :) great to have you
  9:36am Drummer Some:

Frost every morning now, here in Pittsburgh. I assume you've got all the crops safely in the barn, Charlie.
  9:39am Charlie:

Great to be back, Ron. It's raining here, Drummer man, no frost today. The crops are in the produce aisle, thank you, although my neighbor grows her own food!
  9:40am annie:

  9:42am jill:

  10:29am Gary Mitchell:

OOOh yeah Bacharach on a rainy Thursday.
  10:33am Charlie:

Yeah, I hope she's not "standing on his doorstep" in the pouring rain...
  10:40am lewis:

oh happy day!!! not really paying attention until the stream seemed to suddenly go to a place Doug doesn't spend much time and then a familiar voice kicked in.

Thursday just got so much more pleasant.
  10:41am monica:

hola, chaz! grand to have you back in the bosom of wfmu.
  10:43am Charlie:

  10:44am Charlie:

thanks, monica, yes it's great to be back in your (collective) bosom!
  10:46am Hugo:

Hail to the return of Charlie! It calls for a cup of tea (or maybe not, as tea has become a somewhat potent brew lately).
  10:47am Charlie:

How 'bout a nice single-malt, Hugo?
  10:51am Hugo:

Now you're talking, Charlie. Had a very nice helping of Talisker last Friday at an office party.
  10:53am Charlie:

Why wait 'til Friday afternoon?
  10:56am jill:

I got curious about some of the photos that you posted and i googled "radio pillows" and came up with this site -
I'd love some feedback on what this site is trying to say...

  10:56am seang:

  10:56am lewis:

  10:57am Drummer Some:

Welcome to the Stream of Conscientiousness, Charlie!!
  10:57am Charlie:

Holy cow, Jill -- that is one very funny/disturbing site! I love it. I have no idea what the message is, tho...
  10:58am Hugo:

The combination of Charlie and Scotch single malt might affect office productivity ...
  10:58am Gary Mitchell:

east meets zest
