	9:07pm SteveL: Its the funkiest!!
	9:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: This show is going to the dogs tonight.
	9:10pm G: Has it been awhile, Sybil? Or am I having the very early onset Alzheimers over here?
	9:11pm Sybil: The dogs are going to the show.
	9:11pm Atomic Dog: Bow wow wow, etc...
	9:11pm G: Pitchers and catchers, less than a week. I can almost smell the flowers blooming already... Today is the first day of the last half of February...
	9:13pm G: Ceausescu (spelt like that), the romanian dictator who was killed around 1990?
	9:13pm SteveL: efd: You going to post the shot of you and dusty watching the dogs or should I?
	9:13pm Sybil: Ney, G, it's been awhile. I've had weird schedule, but now, weird or not, I'm such an Evan fan... I'm, here!
	9:15pm G: Here's where I flunk the Alzheimers test -- You're a math teacher or math grad student or something along those lines??? If so, the comment authentication is not as challenging for you as for some of us.
	9:16pm Sybil: But dang efd... ceauseseau??? Beyond expectactions!
	9:16pm G: Fatima Mansions is a somewhat infamous Dublin housing project, by the way. (I've published about Irish stuff, and spent time in Dublin.)
	9:17pm EL: My wife is going to flip out over this dog-themed set when she gets home.
	9:18pm Sybil: Hey G... You're the best! Yeah all that! Wow! Mathetatician me!
	9:19pm Sybil: P.S. the alleged "math" is the pits for me. I can't add.
	9:20pm Barkevious Shabazz: Song/Picture request Any Instrumental/Basenji
	9:20pm Ike: I haven't heard "Blues for Ceauşescu" or "This is How It Feels" in eons! Awesome.
	9:20pm G: That math is too simple, eh? :-P
	9:22pm efd: Hi everyone! Special hi to Sybil! Going a little crazy with the dog-wrangling just now, but thanks all for listening!
	9:22pm Sybil: Evan, I'm planning to do an early pledge to tie down my naming. Sorry about that. But I promise to bug people here!
	9:22pm dog pound dogs: We demand equal time!
	9:22pm efd: Brownie points for anyone who makes the connection between Inspiral Carpets and the pictured dog.
	9:23pm Sybil: No, G, I can't add! :)
	9:23pm G: Whose dog pics? They're good...
	9:24pm john: Hey Evan, and all! I know, but I sort of cheated. And I loved Inspiral Carpets 20 years ago.
	9:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: The Mini-Pinscher peed on the inspiral carpet?
	9:25pm Sybil: john o john! You're john I hope! Hey you!
	9:26pm john: Sybil! My gosh, I mean, criminy!
	9:27pm 12539: EFD - I think I know the connection too, but I sort of cheated, probably the same way as John.
	9:28pm Sybil: criminy indeed! Hey sweetie!
	9:28pm efd: google reverse image search?
	9:29pm 12539: Image name.
	9:29pm efd: oh, duh! of course.
	9:30pm john: Reverse image search--you're twisting my melon, man. Nothing too technological. Just a little memory-jogging re breed varieties.
	9:31pm EL: Whither Nazario?
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: Bull Terriers kickin ass.
	9:33pm EL: Whippet good!
	9:33pm Kat in Chicago: "whippet"? groans
	9:33pm john: After which, I remembered I could have just grabbed the pic and got the name. But why do something the easy way when there's a difficult one? And Sybil, you've been missed!
	9:33pm Joe D.: that whippit pun. God. Dammit.
	9:34pm PB: Anyone remember the Toronto punk band Nazi Dog & The Viletones. I don't even remember if they were any good, just remember the name.
	9:34pm Sybil: OK y'al... I am the owner of a certain part of the WFMU infrastructure... and I plan on owning it this time around! I'm making my pledge before the deadline so that I can have my stuff named after me again. But you all? I dare you to match me! And efd.... you played "whip it"? I so love you!
	9:34pm Joe D.: sorry, whippet. Not whippit. Heh.
	9:34pm 12539: The kids listening to the airwaves alone don't get the awful puns.
	9:34pm john: Gets you every year, eh?
	9:35pm G: Here's a modest-sized bit of dog art: Jeff Koons, "Puppy", at Rock Center NYC in 2000: http://www.artnet.com/magazine/features/saltz/saltz6-21-1.asp
	9:35pm Sybil: whippet good!
	9:36pm 12539: Maybe I spoke too soon.
	9:37pm john: Time to start the Evan "Funk" Davies For Westminster Kennel Club Announcer Facebook group.
	9:37pm Sybil: One cannot speak too soon.
	9:38pm G: I was wondering what "announcer audition" meant. No more.
	9:39pm EL: John O'Hurley better watch his back.
	9:39pm SteveL: If you didn't see it on his Twitter feed, here's a shot of efd watching the show with Dusty, a noted dog expert. http://lockerz.com/s/183906272
	9:39pm Kat in Chicago: I was wondering if EFD was gonna backannounce all night like that...
	9:40pm john: We live in hope.
	9:41pm Sybil: This is possibly the best efd show of the year, every year. And I say that as a RSfan. How brilliant is this?!
	9:43pm Barkevious Shabazz: Even Joe Garagiola eventually released his deathgrip on the Westminster mic. There's hope yet.
	9:45pm Sybil: Joltin Joe has left and gone away...
	9:50pm Mildred: God bless GBV.
	9:51pm Sybil: Every single one of you... If you love Efd (and I know you do)... pledge to WFMU. You cannot live without it, you need it, even a few pennies helps!
	9:55pm Sybil: Yankees fans or Red Sox fans... I know you are out there! (other WFMU DJs, ha! Sunday afternoon, heh heh!)
	9:56pm Sybil: lost tribe rulz
	9:59pm Kat in Chicago: Hey Sybil, pledges have to be paid in full in advance for naming rights, correct? I always do the $15/month but might see if the budget allows a paid-in-full this year...
	10:00pm Credit Card: You rang?
	10:02pm Sybil: Gee-ah! I'm fighting Kat! I'm loving it! Because if I lose out to her, I'll find another part of the infrastrucrture to pown!
	10:05pm Barkevious Shabazz: RIP Dory Previn
	10:05pm Kat in Chicago: Credit Card: lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself
	10:05pm Sybil: Did I mention, recently, how astonishly excellent efd has been? Consider it mentioned.
	10:06pm Kat in Chicago: Sybil, I doubt we're eyeing the same prize - I've got a couple of alternatives in mind actually.
	10:07pm jeff in hawaii: Hi Evan
	10:08pm Sybil: I wouldn't be surprised, kid. In fact, excellent!
	10:08pm jeff in hawaii: ...and all. Good set for a sunset now
	10:09pm Sybil: Got to go sleep... bye y'all See you soon I hope!
	10:10pm G: night...
	10:11pm efd: Goodnight Sybil! Good to see you back. Hi jeff, thanks for listening all the way out in Hawaii!
	10:12pm G: It definitely sounds like the Whitney we know from later hits...
	10:12pm Destroit: Hello efd, and everyone.
	10:12pm Kat in Chicago: Destroit, I was just wondering where you were!
	10:13pm AndroidKBot: Imagine if Laswell ended up producing her albums
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: Bustin' Out is ridiculously superior.
	10:14pm efd: Hi Destroit! Barkevious, I agree - much more my cup of tea, but I thought it would be interesting to hear this.
	10:15pm Destroit: Hello Kat, been here all along, just not much to say.
	10:25pm efd: Belated greetings to Kat, AndroidKBot, G, Stevel, john, EL, Joe D. PB, Ike, Ken, and everyone else! Thanks for joining me tonight!
	10:34pm Kat in Chicago: I'm leaving work on time for once, so I'll catch the rest on the archive. Good night all!
	10:35pm Randolph Mantooth: The guys at the firehouse would love to hear the "Valley of the Dolls" theme.
	10:35pm efd: bye, Kat!
	10:41pm Destroit: Good night Kat! keep workin'
	10:41pm Joe D.: Stereo MCs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fresh with a capital F
	10:41pm Holly in NC: Hi efd & everyone! Better late than never. LOVE this Nothing People..wait a minute, can it be? OMGosh. Connected. Wow.
	10:44pm Destroit: Holly! Still have to check out the link you sent me...I'm a total Boob when it comes to that.
	10:45pm Dame Edna: How did the possums trap come out, possums?
	10:45pm Holly in NC: @Kat - the 15/month definitely gets you naming rights. @Sybil - I remember us reveling in our naming wins last year. Time flies!
	10:48pm EL: Gotta run out efd. Talk to you via marathon dollahs soon.
	10:49pm efd: bye EL, and thanks in advance!
	10:49pm G: I believe they changed it to one-time paid-in-full pledges this year, for namings. I'm guessing at least a few people got naming rights last year, and then stopped their monthly payments somewhere along the line during the year.
	10:50pm Holly in NC: @Dame Edna - Thank you for asking! One possum & one neighbor's cat (oops). And, elsewhere, 1 dead squirrel & 2 dead birds. @Destroit - no rush! Is Danne here tonight? I need his no-fail Stratego strategy, a six year old thinks I'm, er, 'challenged'.
	10:51pm Holly in NC: @G - :-(
	10:51pm G: Danne was in 7SD earlier...
	10:51pm Possum: The horror. The horror.
	10:53pm G: Just play possum, dude.
	10:55pm Droll: @G, Glad they finally got rid of that naming rights loophole. If I pay in full for a restoration of "Midnight Ticket Oasis" do I get a quality "Ticket" overdub every week? None of this 'Oh! [Cough, fumble] Yeah, Uh, Ticket!" stuff?
	10:55pm Holly in NC: @Possum - hush. I personally transported you 2 blocks away to our awesome neighborhood park where people grill out ALL the time & there's tons of nice sceaps for you. And an abandoned bathhouse for your shelter.
	10:55pm G: Ask efd, he's the one who has to execute every week. :-)
	10:57pm Abandoned Bathhouse User: Abandoned? So you think.
	10:57pm Holly in NC: As a paid and paying in full $15/monther, I protest. NOT that I will rescind my pledge!!!! Just sayin'
	10:59pm Translation: The segment known for a few more moments as etc etc
	11:04pm Possum: Can't hear you. Playing dead.
	11:04pm G: Sulky! You're spoiled.
	11:04pm AndroidKBot: I'm having fond memories of being the reason a local radio station adopted the 30 day rule.
	11:05pm Church Lady: @Android: Well, isn't that "special".
	11:06pm AndroidKBot: Can't just sit around setting stuff on fire when you live in a small town.
	11:07pm Beavis and Butthead: Why not? hehehehe
	11:08pm AndroidKBot: A box of wooden matches can only go so far.
	11:15pm miss cheri: hi evan--sorry i"m late commenting i was just listening to the show and you know how time flies,, well anyway how was your valentines day yesterday?? i love da funk!!!!
	11:19pm Holly in NC: Huh! This remake isn't horrid! In fact, I like it! Go Ringo!
	11:19pm efd: hi cheri, thanks for checking in.
	11:21pm efd: Holly, that whole Ringo album isn't bad at all!
	11:21pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :)
	11:21pm mb: Radar Lo...nevermind
	11:22pm Destroit: I'll say it. I like ringo. 28th holly, let's eat!
	11:22pm efd: @mb, there was plenty of that on Ken's show earlier today!
	11:23pm miss cheri: hey danne i hope you're feeling much better tonight,,
	11:23pm jeff-m: wow, i wish i was cool enough for that "rollin' out" to be my theme song
	11:25pm Destroit: Hello Danne D.
	11:26pm Danne D: @Holly :) would you like me to post my stratego strategy (simplified)
	11:27pm Danne D: Thx cheri, I'm getting there. Hey Destroit :) Hey EFD :)
	11:28pm Mike Sin: Listening... Broadcast signal loud... In the dark... Hello from phone... Fine show!
	11:29pm Danne D: wonder what kind of fun folks will be in the phone room next week :)
	11:29pm Danne D: Hey Mike Sin :) (not to be confused with WFAN's "Mike's On") - though he should totally get royalties for that
	11:30pm Danne D: Looking forward to the AmNazz and JulieDark Hoof N Mouth debut :)
	11:31pm miss cheri: well evan & danne i have to scoot out now ,,yall have a great night,,danne get some rest,,,
	11:32pm Destroit: Julie is the Best.
	11:32pm Holly in NC: @mb - I thought the very same thing @Destroit - most definitely, if I'm not caring for little ones! And I of course love Ringo, as do all Yankee fans who remember 1978 ;-) @Danne - hope you're feeling better & I would love if you'd share your Stratego hints. I've been cajoled into a rematch on Saturday - winner takes on his 2 older & equally precocious brothers. efd, thank you for Pony Time.
	11:32pm Danne D: g'night cheri, I will
	11:33pm Holly in NC: I'm psyched Mike L. will be with efd! Mike L. was one of my 'gateway' djs.
	11:33pm Danne D: okay Holly - I always do two bunkers in the back (i.e. surround by 3 bombs). One will have the flag in it, the other will have a "7" to take out whatever miner might have gotten to that point.
	11:34pm miss cheri: night efd!!
	11:34pm efd: goodnight cheri
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @Danne - best use of scouts & spys? (I'd never actually played before this week!)
	11:36pm efd: Mike, thanks for listening and checking in from the dark!
	11:37pm Danne D: I tend to keep the 1, 2, and Spy close to middle for easier deployment, sweeping up. I'm trying to remember the rest as it's been some years. I know that none of the pieces was the same value as its neighbor. Pretty sure I did some sort of deal with a 5 and 9 in the front on one side and maybe a 6 and a 9 on the other. Generally kept the miners toward the back/middle - generally wanted to deploy those once I had a good idea of where the flag is. Generally found it easier to win by attrition.
	11:39pm Joe D.: I will school you in Risk. Any of you. Step to this and get SONNED.
	11:40pm Holly in NC: efd - That totally sounded like the opening to Superchunk's "Precision Auto" - wait there it is again!
	11:42pm Danne D: Very tough to knock out his 1 with a Spy - generally you have to keep the Spy close to a 2 or 3. About those 3's - I seem to recall I used them to the mid-back. I tended to play fairly non-aggressive, that is I'm willing to move pieces forward, figure out what's out there and then retreat - I'm content with laying back and letting the opponent expose pieces and picking 'em off. I like having a good piece like a 5 around to pick off the guys your opponent uses to pick off the scouts. A big part is making sure you remember what a piece is once it has been exposed. Shuffling your pieces back to your lines and moving them around helps to obscure their identity. Scouts I like to use if they have a piece that's exposed/uncovered and I want to find out what it is.
	11:42pm Joe D.: this is kinda like the Judgement Night soundtrack crossed with a car crash
	11:43pm efd: Joe, EXACTLY.
	11:43pm efd: I love Ice-T on this song.
	11:44pm Holly in NC: Hi Joe D. I cede Risk. Basically I cede anything except for backgammon, Monopoly & (bar) shuffleboard, I'm kind of a shitty gamer. Danne - I am going to memorize your tips. You rock.
	11:45pm Danne D: Played a lot in college. Always went with a pretty standard set up, flipping what side the key pieces might be on, but largely it was a similar deal. Btw, if you're opponent decides to get cute and put bombs right in the front, blocking out the front line - don't bother to take those bombs out - let them bottle themselves up, it makes it much harder on them.
	11:46pm Danne D: Thanks :) Oh, if you get an advantage (say you have an extra 3) you should have no problem with trading pieces (like say your 1s).
	11:47pm Danne D: My college roommate once set up bombs in 4 of the 6 front positions (leaving only the left side open for movement). He put 7's behind each of those bombs - and I figured that's what he had done. So I left the bombs alone and forced him to play everything to that left side.
	11:48pm Holly in NC: Even more phlegm than usual. Get that man a suction tube!
	11:49pm Danne D: I hope to avoid suction tube duty during EFD's marathon show next week :)
	11:51pm Joe D.: "according to the band's Myspace Page Ugly Kid Joe has reformed, with plans to tour in 2010-2011 and possibly write new material."
	11:51pm Holly in NC: I suppose I should clarify that I was referring to Mark E. Danne, you're not that ill,are you?
	11:52pm Droll: I also got the crooked-head quizzical look when Ice-T put together to two words "Motorhead Fool". Glad it wasn't just me.
	11:52pm glenn: devastator!!
	11:53pm Danne D: lol I'm fine Holly. My throat seems to be doing better. Still a little stuffy
	11:53pm Joe D.: the cover of that Born To Raise Hell single is something else. Really fantastic. It has "Motorhead, foo'!" written all over it
	11:54pm Danne D: Will be in the phone room the next 2 weeks so you'll probably not see me here on the comments board (except perhaps for a blind hello from my phone) :)
	11:55pm G: @Danne: So it's free rein for gossiping about you on here, huh? :-P
	11:57pm Danne D: Thought it always was, G :)
	11:57pm Danne D: I've got to be the most boring gossip topic ever, anyway.
	11:58pm Danne D: Anyway have a good night everyone! :) Thanks for a great show Evan! Looking forward to taking everyone's pledges during next week's show. PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE!!!
	12:00am Holly in NC: Thank you Evan, thank you & feel better Danne, Destroit let's talk!
	11:47am getinline: That is such a cute picture of the Pomeranian, you can see some more cute pics of this dog over at www.smalldogbreeds.info
	11:48am getinline: There are loads more pics of the Pomeranian and all the other small dog breeds on this page here www.smalldogbreeds.info...

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from February 15, 2012

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Nov 6th, Noon - 3pm: The Metal District III: Kicked Out Of The Hellraiser! (More info...)
EFD’s hair-metal-loving cousin Evan “Snake” Davies was dying to return to the airwaves in October after a four-year absence. However, this request was vetoed over concerns that his appearance might have had a deleterious effect on our Hellraiser efforts. He’s back today, though, spinning his favorite ‘80s (mostly) hard rock and hair metal just for you. Don’t (or maybe do) miss it!

February 15, 2012: Fifth(?) annual salute to the Westminster Dog Show + announcer audition!

	9:13pm Sybil: Ney, G, it's been awhile. I've had weird schedule, but now, weird or not, I'm such an Evan fan... I'm, here!
	9:15pm G: Here's where I flunk the Alzheimers test -- You're a math teacher or math grad student or something along those lines??? If so, the comment authentication is not as challenging for you as for some of us.
	9:16pm Sybil: But dang efd... ceauseseau??? Beyond expectactions!
	9:16pm G: Fatima Mansions is a somewhat infamous Dublin housing project, by the way. (I've published about Irish stuff, and spent time in Dublin.)
	9:17pm EL: My wife is going to flip out over this dog-themed set when she gets home.
	9:18pm Sybil: Hey G... You're the best! Yeah all that! Wow! Mathetatician me!
	9:19pm Sybil: P.S. the alleged "math" is the pits for me. I can't add.
	9:20pm Barkevious Shabazz: Song/Picture request Any Instrumental/Basenji
	9:20pm Ike: I haven't heard "Blues for Ceauşescu" or "This is How It Feels" in eons! Awesome.
	9:20pm G: That math is too simple, eh? :-P
	9:22pm efd: Hi everyone! Special hi to Sybil! Going a little crazy with the dog-wrangling just now, but thanks all for listening!
	9:22pm Sybil: Evan, I'm planning to do an early pledge to tie down my naming. Sorry about that. But I promise to bug people here!
	9:22pm dog pound dogs: We demand equal time!
	9:22pm efd: Brownie points for anyone who makes the connection between Inspiral Carpets and the pictured dog.
	9:23pm Sybil: No, G, I can't add! :)
	9:23pm G: Whose dog pics? They're good...
	9:24pm john: Hey Evan, and all! I know, but I sort of cheated. And I loved Inspiral Carpets 20 years ago.
	9:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: The Mini-Pinscher peed on the inspiral carpet?
	9:25pm Sybil: john o john! You're john I hope! Hey you!
	9:26pm john: Sybil! My gosh, I mean, criminy!
	9:27pm 12539: EFD - I think I know the connection too, but I sort of cheated, probably the same way as John.
	9:28pm Sybil: criminy indeed! Hey sweetie!
	9:28pm efd: google reverse image search?
	9:29pm 12539: Image name.
	9:29pm efd: oh, duh! of course.
	9:30pm john: Reverse image search--you're twisting my melon, man. Nothing too technological. Just a little memory-jogging re breed varieties.
	9:31pm EL: Whither Nazario?
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: Bull Terriers kickin ass.
	9:33pm EL: Whippet good!
	9:33pm Kat in Chicago: "whippet"? groans
	9:33pm john: After which, I remembered I could have just grabbed the pic and got the name. But why do something the easy way when there's a difficult one? And Sybil, you've been missed!
	9:33pm Joe D.: that whippit pun. God. Dammit.
	9:34pm PB: Anyone remember the Toronto punk band Nazi Dog & The Viletones. I don't even remember if they were any good, just remember the name.
	9:34pm Sybil: OK y'al... I am the owner of a certain part of the WFMU infrastructure... and I plan on owning it this time around! I'm making my pledge before the deadline so that I can have my stuff named after me again. But you all? I dare you to match me! And efd.... you played "whip it"? I so love you!
	9:34pm Joe D.: sorry, whippet. Not whippit. Heh.
	9:34pm 12539: The kids listening to the airwaves alone don't get the awful puns.
	9:34pm john: Gets you every year, eh?
	9:35pm G: Here's a modest-sized bit of dog art: Jeff Koons, "Puppy", at Rock Center NYC in 2000: http://www.artnet.com/magazine/features/saltz/saltz6-21-1.asp
	9:35pm Sybil: whippet good!
	9:36pm 12539: Maybe I spoke too soon.
	9:37pm john: Time to start the Evan "Funk" Davies For Westminster Kennel Club Announcer Facebook group.
	9:37pm Sybil: One cannot speak too soon.
	9:38pm G: I was wondering what "announcer audition" meant. No more.
	9:39pm EL: John O'Hurley better watch his back.
	9:39pm SteveL: If you didn't see it on his Twitter feed, here's a shot of efd watching the show with Dusty, a noted dog expert. http://lockerz.com/s/183906272
	9:39pm Kat in Chicago: I was wondering if EFD was gonna backannounce all night like that...
	9:40pm john: We live in hope.
	9:41pm Sybil: This is possibly the best efd show of the year, every year. And I say that as a RSfan. How brilliant is this?!
	9:43pm Barkevious Shabazz: Even Joe Garagiola eventually released his deathgrip on the Westminster mic. There's hope yet.
	9:45pm Sybil: Joltin Joe has left and gone away...
	9:50pm Mildred: God bless GBV.
	9:51pm Sybil: Every single one of you... If you love Efd (and I know you do)... pledge to WFMU. You cannot live without it, you need it, even a few pennies helps!
	9:55pm Sybil: Yankees fans or Red Sox fans... I know you are out there! (other WFMU DJs, ha! Sunday afternoon, heh heh!)
	9:56pm Sybil: lost tribe rulz
	9:59pm Kat in Chicago: Hey Sybil, pledges have to be paid in full in advance for naming rights, correct? I always do the $15/month but might see if the budget allows a paid-in-full this year...
	10:00pm Credit Card: You rang?
	10:02pm Sybil: Gee-ah! I'm fighting Kat! I'm loving it! Because if I lose out to her, I'll find another part of the infrastrucrture to pown!
	10:05pm Barkevious Shabazz: RIP Dory Previn
	10:05pm Kat in Chicago: Credit Card: lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself
	10:05pm Sybil: Did I mention, recently, how astonishly excellent efd has been? Consider it mentioned.
	10:06pm Kat in Chicago: Sybil, I doubt we're eyeing the same prize - I've got a couple of alternatives in mind actually.
	10:07pm jeff in hawaii: Hi Evan
	10:08pm Sybil: I wouldn't be surprised, kid. In fact, excellent!
	10:08pm jeff in hawaii: ...and all. Good set for a sunset now
	10:09pm Sybil: Got to go sleep... bye y'all See you soon I hope!
	10:10pm G: night...
	10:11pm efd: Goodnight Sybil! Good to see you back. Hi jeff, thanks for listening all the way out in Hawaii!
	10:12pm G: It definitely sounds like the Whitney we know from later hits...
	10:12pm Destroit: Hello efd, and everyone.
	10:12pm Kat in Chicago: Destroit, I was just wondering where you were!
	10:13pm AndroidKBot: Imagine if Laswell ended up producing her albums
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: Bustin' Out is ridiculously superior.
	10:14pm efd: Hi Destroit! Barkevious, I agree - much more my cup of tea, but I thought it would be interesting to hear this.
	10:15pm Destroit: Hello Kat, been here all along, just not much to say.
	10:25pm efd: Belated greetings to Kat, AndroidKBot, G, Stevel, john, EL, Joe D. PB, Ike, Ken, and everyone else! Thanks for joining me tonight!
	10:34pm Kat in Chicago: I'm leaving work on time for once, so I'll catch the rest on the archive. Good night all!
	10:35pm Randolph Mantooth: The guys at the firehouse would love to hear the "Valley of the Dolls" theme.
	10:35pm efd: bye, Kat!
	10:41pm Destroit: Good night Kat! keep workin'
	10:41pm Joe D.: Stereo MCs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fresh with a capital F
	10:41pm Holly in NC: Hi efd & everyone! Better late than never. LOVE this Nothing People..wait a minute, can it be? OMGosh. Connected. Wow.
	10:44pm Destroit: Holly! Still have to check out the link you sent me...I'm a total Boob when it comes to that.
	10:45pm Dame Edna: How did the possums trap come out, possums?
	10:45pm Holly in NC: @Kat - the 15/month definitely gets you naming rights. @Sybil - I remember us reveling in our naming wins last year. Time flies!
	10:48pm EL: Gotta run out efd. Talk to you via marathon dollahs soon.
	10:49pm efd: bye EL, and thanks in advance!
	10:49pm G: I believe they changed it to one-time paid-in-full pledges this year, for namings. I'm guessing at least a few people got naming rights last year, and then stopped their monthly payments somewhere along the line during the year.
	10:50pm Holly in NC: @Dame Edna - Thank you for asking! One possum & one neighbor's cat (oops). And, elsewhere, 1 dead squirrel & 2 dead birds. @Destroit - no rush! Is Danne here tonight? I need his no-fail Stratego strategy, a six year old thinks I'm, er, 'challenged'.
	10:51pm Holly in NC: @G - :-(
	10:51pm G: Danne was in 7SD earlier...
	10:51pm Possum: The horror. The horror.
	10:53pm G: Just play possum, dude.
	10:55pm Droll: @G, Glad they finally got rid of that naming rights loophole. If I pay in full for a restoration of "Midnight Ticket Oasis" do I get a quality "Ticket" overdub every week? None of this 'Oh! [Cough, fumble] Yeah, Uh, Ticket!" stuff?
	10:55pm Holly in NC: @Possum - hush. I personally transported you 2 blocks away to our awesome neighborhood park where people grill out ALL the time & there's tons of nice sceaps for you. And an abandoned bathhouse for your shelter.
	10:55pm G: Ask efd, he's the one who has to execute every week. :-)
	10:57pm Abandoned Bathhouse User: Abandoned? So you think.
	10:57pm Holly in NC: As a paid and paying in full $15/monther, I protest. NOT that I will rescind my pledge!!!! Just sayin'
	10:59pm Translation: The segment known for a few more moments as etc etc
	11:04pm Possum: Can't hear you. Playing dead.
	11:04pm G: Sulky! You're spoiled.
	11:04pm AndroidKBot: I'm having fond memories of being the reason a local radio station adopted the 30 day rule.
	11:05pm Church Lady: @Android: Well, isn't that "special".
	11:06pm AndroidKBot: Can't just sit around setting stuff on fire when you live in a small town.
	11:07pm Beavis and Butthead: Why not? hehehehe
	11:08pm AndroidKBot: A box of wooden matches can only go so far.
	11:15pm miss cheri: hi evan--sorry i"m late commenting i was just listening to the show and you know how time flies,, well anyway how was your valentines day yesterday?? i love da funk!!!!
	11:19pm Holly in NC: Huh! This remake isn't horrid! In fact, I like it! Go Ringo!
	11:19pm efd: hi cheri, thanks for checking in.
	11:21pm efd: Holly, that whole Ringo album isn't bad at all!
	11:21pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :)
	11:21pm mb: Radar Lo...nevermind
	11:22pm Destroit: I'll say it. I like ringo. 28th holly, let's eat!
	11:22pm efd: @mb, there was plenty of that on Ken's show earlier today!
	11:23pm miss cheri: hey danne i hope you're feeling much better tonight,,
	11:23pm jeff-m: wow, i wish i was cool enough for that "rollin' out" to be my theme song
	11:25pm Destroit: Hello Danne D.
	11:26pm Danne D: @Holly :) would you like me to post my stratego strategy (simplified)
	11:27pm Danne D: Thx cheri, I'm getting there. Hey Destroit :) Hey EFD :)
	11:28pm Mike Sin: Listening... Broadcast signal loud... In the dark... Hello from phone... Fine show!
	11:29pm Danne D: wonder what kind of fun folks will be in the phone room next week :)
	11:29pm Danne D: Hey Mike Sin :) (not to be confused with WFAN's "Mike's On") - though he should totally get royalties for that
	11:30pm Danne D: Looking forward to the AmNazz and JulieDark Hoof N Mouth debut :)
	11:31pm miss cheri: well evan & danne i have to scoot out now ,,yall have a great night,,danne get some rest,,,
	11:32pm Destroit: Julie is the Best.
	11:32pm Holly in NC: @mb - I thought the very same thing @Destroit - most definitely, if I'm not caring for little ones! And I of course love Ringo, as do all Yankee fans who remember 1978 ;-) @Danne - hope you're feeling better & I would love if you'd share your Stratego hints. I've been cajoled into a rematch on Saturday - winner takes on his 2 older & equally precocious brothers. efd, thank you for Pony Time.
	11:32pm Danne D: g'night cheri, I will
	11:33pm Holly in NC: I'm psyched Mike L. will be with efd! Mike L. was one of my 'gateway' djs.
	11:33pm Danne D: okay Holly - I always do two bunkers in the back (i.e. surround by 3 bombs). One will have the flag in it, the other will have a "7" to take out whatever miner might have gotten to that point.
	11:34pm miss cheri: night efd!!
	11:34pm efd: goodnight cheri
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @Danne - best use of scouts & spys? (I'd never actually played before this week!)
	11:36pm efd: Mike, thanks for listening and checking in from the dark!
	11:37pm Danne D: I tend to keep the 1, 2, and Spy close to middle for easier deployment, sweeping up. I'm trying to remember the rest as it's been some years. I know that none of the pieces was the same value as its neighbor. Pretty sure I did some sort of deal with a 5 and 9 in the front on one side and maybe a 6 and a 9 on the other. Generally kept the miners toward the back/middle - generally wanted to deploy those once I had a good idea of where the flag is. Generally found it easier to win by attrition.
	11:39pm Joe D.: I will school you in Risk. Any of you. Step to this and get SONNED.
	11:40pm Holly in NC: efd - That totally sounded like the opening to Superchunk's "Precision Auto" - wait there it is again!
	11:42pm Danne D: Very tough to knock out his 1 with a Spy - generally you have to keep the Spy close to a 2 or 3. About those 3's - I seem to recall I used them to the mid-back. I tended to play fairly non-aggressive, that is I'm willing to move pieces forward, figure out what's out there and then retreat - I'm content with laying back and letting the opponent expose pieces and picking 'em off. I like having a good piece like a 5 around to pick off the guys your opponent uses to pick off the scouts. A big part is making sure you remember what a piece is once it has been exposed. Shuffling your pieces back to your lines and moving them around helps to obscure their identity. Scouts I like to use if they have a piece that's exposed/uncovered and I want to find out what it is.
	11:42pm Joe D.: this is kinda like the Judgement Night soundtrack crossed with a car crash
	11:43pm efd: Joe, EXACTLY.
	11:43pm efd: I love Ice-T on this song.
	11:44pm Holly in NC: Hi Joe D. I cede Risk. Basically I cede anything except for backgammon, Monopoly & (bar) shuffleboard, I'm kind of a shitty gamer. Danne - I am going to memorize your tips. You rock.
	11:45pm Danne D: Played a lot in college. Always went with a pretty standard set up, flipping what side the key pieces might be on, but largely it was a similar deal. Btw, if you're opponent decides to get cute and put bombs right in the front, blocking out the front line - don't bother to take those bombs out - let them bottle themselves up, it makes it much harder on them.
	11:46pm Danne D: Thanks :) Oh, if you get an advantage (say you have an extra 3) you should have no problem with trading pieces (like say your 1s).
	11:47pm Danne D: My college roommate once set up bombs in 4 of the 6 front positions (leaving only the left side open for movement). He put 7's behind each of those bombs - and I figured that's what he had done. So I left the bombs alone and forced him to play everything to that left side.
	11:48pm Holly in NC: Even more phlegm than usual. Get that man a suction tube!
	11:49pm Danne D: I hope to avoid suction tube duty during EFD's marathon show next week :)
	11:51pm Joe D.: "according to the band's Myspace Page Ugly Kid Joe has reformed, with plans to tour in 2010-2011 and possibly write new material."
	11:51pm Holly in NC: I suppose I should clarify that I was referring to Mark E. Danne, you're not that ill,are you?
	11:52pm Droll: I also got the crooked-head quizzical look when Ice-T put together to two words "Motorhead Fool". Glad it wasn't just me.
	11:52pm glenn: devastator!!
	11:53pm Danne D: lol I'm fine Holly. My throat seems to be doing better. Still a little stuffy
	11:53pm Joe D.: the cover of that Born To Raise Hell single is something else. Really fantastic. It has "Motorhead, foo'!" written all over it
	11:54pm Danne D: Will be in the phone room the next 2 weeks so you'll probably not see me here on the comments board (except perhaps for a blind hello from my phone) :)
	11:55pm G: @Danne: So it's free rein for gossiping about you on here, huh? :-P
	11:57pm Danne D: Thought it always was, G :)
	11:57pm Danne D: I've got to be the most boring gossip topic ever, anyway.
	11:58pm Danne D: Anyway have a good night everyone! :) Thanks for a great show Evan! Looking forward to taking everyone's pledges during next week's show. PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE!!!
	12:00am Holly in NC: Thank you Evan, thank you & feel better Danne, Destroit let's talk!
	11:47am getinline: That is such a cute picture of the Pomeranian, you can see some more cute pics of this dog over at www.smalldogbreeds.info
	11:48am getinline: There are loads more pics of the Pomeranian and all the other small dog breeds on this page here www.smalldogbreeds.info...
