Sure, blame it on the fever

Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

I am totally going to start finding reasons to say verbal to your name.

Richard from Venezuela:

Greetings Martha.
  1:52am
Martha:

Hi all - thanks again for checking in - and I have no idea what it is a reference to - doesn't show up on a search - maybe Google hasn't heard of it yet?

Verbal to your Name:

I KNEW that was Monty Hall: "I had so much fun playing with those dolphins"

It seems highly unlikely, even impossible that "fastened to a device behind a tree" is a coincidence.
  2:00am
Fastened to a Device Behind a Tree:

catch me if you can!
  2:02am
jeff-m:

was a NWW song titled that appeared on some comps early on. Was strange to hear a sample saying that is all.
  2:03am
Martha:

Interesting - thanks Jeff!

That was my next question, how cold is it where you are?
  2:12am
P-90:

...just realized, by coincidence, I'm eating dried papaya right now

I must say, my fresh papaya is rather dry. Hard to get a good papaya in titanium-white upstate NY
  2:14am

It's 19F in New York City, but it seems colder, I'm in a heated building, it feels like the cold is reaching through the walls, know what I mean?

frozen fish biter:

I'm 45 minutes NW of Albany, about 3 1/2 hours from NYC. I like turning off the heat and climbing under a mountain of covers, plus, that makes my neighbors heaters have to work harder.

off-brand tire fire:

@Martha, sorry to hear you have been victimized by the bug. Thanks for making it in to entertain us.
  2:24am
P-90:

@Who: 45 mins NORTHWEST of Albany? Jezuz, that's practically Buffalo.
@Martha: Yes, great show tonight, thanks so much for coming in sick to keep us company
  2:25am
Martha:

Thanks! - and though it has been mostly unpleasant I haven't been sick for quite a while (I accomplish this by generally avoiding people) so I can't complain too much - and Jeff M was kind enough to fill in for me last week -
Avatar 2:30am
I don't stink much:

Avoiding people is always my first plan of action....regardless.

I'm in a dying little pit named Johnstown. Far from Buffalo. We have a cool Colonial era graveyard and lots of decrepit glove factories and a brand-spakin-new Super WalMart.
  2:30am
P-90:

I LOVE this.
@Martha: If you have a moment, could you post the year on this?
  2:36am
Martha:

You mean this song that I forgot to hit enter for and so you didn't know what you were hearing until just now? - it was recorded June of this past year - have to say I know nothing about this band except they seem to be a duo - always discover excellent stuff on these KFJC comps -
  2:37am
Martha:

So - did they close down your regular WalMart and leave it standing vacant as they tend to do?
  2:42am
P-90:

@Whoo: I see, the sister city to Glovestown. I asked about Ithaca because it's kind of a poster child for all those towns upstate that once were thriving manufacturing centers, now economically depressed and "decrepit", as you say. And there you are, where thousands of people worked for gtenerations making gloves. Ithaca was National Cash Register, parts of General Electric, and I think Singer Sewing machines. I've been there a few times, but my mental image of it and similar towns upstate comes from Kurt Vonnegut, whose fictionalized version of Ithaca is called Ilium, if you've read his books.
Billy Pilgrim is from there, and Breakfast of Champions takes place there, among others

untied bond rally:

You guessed it Martha. The old Walmart was opened next to an exsiting Hanaford's under the conditon that it didn't sell food (for Hannaford's sake). So Walmart has humped it down the street leaving the empty hulk of a appendage attached to the Hannaford's. Complete with the ghost image of the name on the front of the old business. Now everyone is happy. Except the two sister towns, Gloversville and Johnstown, delayed the project for years fighing over who should get the tax monies from the new Walmart. It's a real Peyton's Place around here.

Is billy pilgrim from "galapagos"?
  2:47am
P-90:

@ Martha: thanks, you know that track could have been from anywhere in the last 30 years or so, so I was curious.

@Whooda: Sorry, GloversVILLE. Billy P is the protagonist of Slaughterhouse Five.

Yamamoto blank stare:

You nailed it P-90. That is exactly what happened here. I have only been in NY for four years but it's impossilble not to know of the misery caused here with leather tanning went overseas. Fulton county has the highest unemployment rate of any NY county, yet was once a thriving boom town where the sky was the limit. I recently saw the average home price was $67K. I couldn't believe my eyes.

I have read a few of Vonnegut's novels, Like them very much.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:50am
coelacanth:

Thanks. I did finally remember that i read that...so far my least favorite Vonnegut book,though still good.
  2:52am

Rilly? It's like the flagship for most fans.
How cold is it where you are? I know Coelacaths thrive in frigid waters

Great stereo soundstaging on this Great Sonic Wave. Another one i"m hearing for the first time.

Thanks everyone for checking in - stay warm! - and don't forget, there's no PO no., just verbal to your name -

I'm 1/2 way between Martha & W.D.Ductape,also in an attic. It's frigid,but i am not thriving...Also sick.
- It just didn't suck me in like all his others.(though deadeye dick took 1/2 a book to suck me in)...I think Galapagos is my favorite;Or Slapstick.

Catch you next week, you'll be back on your feet I'm sure.
