Good afternoon from Blighty!

9:12am Uncle Michael:

Hello friends.

9:13am Archbishop Aintnothang:

Hi Doug and all. The blues, the blues, the blues....I got them listening to blues blues

9:15am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, Sarah N from Blighty!

Hi hi hi hi, oh hi, Uncle Michael!

Kneel with me, Archibishop Aintnothang, and let's pray that some really hot booze and hookers come along soon!

9:18am Cardinal Fangless:

Would that be johnleehookers?

9:18am Doug Schulkind:

I like the way you pray, Cardinal!

9:22am Bishop Furryfreak:

Hallelujahgobble

9:26am Doug Schulkind:

Is that what you say when you're released from a prison in Turkey, Bishop?

9:29am glenn:

thinking of a road trip?

9:30am Doug Schulkind:

What are you driving at, glenn?

9:33am Webhamster Henry:

An all cello set would be great! Arthur Russell, on deck!

9:33am glenn:

i'm saying it's time to crank up the studebaker and listen to some baseball on the a.m. radio.

9:35am glenn:

especially now that my team has some pitching to go with their offense.

9:35am Uncle Michael:

Was this the entrance music for the debate last night?

9:36am Lore:

Always a pleasure to hear my man Mose, a pivotal figure in my Drummer Some & other listening experience.

9:40am Sarah N:

I dig you Doug

9:40am glenn:

oh, my dear sweet lord.

9:41am Webhamster Henry:

Kind of like the Cash version of "I'm Bidin' my Time"

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

If I knew you were coming, Lore, I would've used the good silver! (The not plastic kind, I mean.)

Keep shoveling, Sarah N!

9:44am Doug Schulkind:

Thank Yahweh for MLB's At Bat app. With it you can listen to any baseball game, home or away announcers. Baseball on the radio in Pittsburgh is embarrassing and pitiful. At least the team is root-worthy.

🥁

9:45am listener james from westwood:

In that case, they _didn't_ head off to Beverly. Hills, that is.

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy-do, Webhamster Henry!

🥁

9:47am listener james from westwood:

Let's not be body-shaming, Bobby.

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

@Webham H
Arthur Russell is wonderful.

🥁

9:48am Artie Haywire:

Ah, Fish Fridays, always a favorite!

9:48am Alex In Illinois:

What movie is the gif from? There is some dark figure that appears on the left.

9:50am Doug Schulkind:

Gnawing the scales of justice, Artie Haywire!

@Alex in Illinois
Not sure it's from a movie. Here is the original: fluxmachine.tumblr.com...

9:53am Webhamster Henry:

I can't wait till major studios release their latest Vines and animated gifs instead of blockbuster tentpoles!

9:53am glenn:

conway twitty DOES sing.

🥁

9:55am βrian:

A shame he didn't live long enough to have a Twitter account.

9:56am glenn:

twitty tweets?

9:56am dave:

Hey Doug and everyone...

9:56am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
You always know how to make a nice entrance!

9:57am glenn:

i tought i taw a twitty tweet?

🥁

9:57am βrian:

"Lurk then lurch" is my M.O.

9:58am Doug Schulkind:

Hiya dave!

🥁

9:58am bobdc:

If I ever have my own FMU show, I'm definitely calling it "Loser's Cathedral."

🥁

9:58am doctorjazz:

Hi all.

10:00am Reverend Beech:

I'm getting thirsty. Where's the nearest cathedral?

10:00am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, doctorjazz! (I am ready for my weekly "B-12" infusion.)

@bobdc
I'm gonna listen to that show for sure.

10:02am Doug Schulkind:

Hey Reverend! You should meet fellow listeners of the cloth Archibishop Aintnothang, Cardinal Fangless and Bishop Furryfreak (see above).

🥁

10:03am βrian:

My gif paralyzer stops that cello pic just at the frame where the bright-eyed ghost is fading in.

10:03am Uncle Michael:

Sorry, muting this one.

10:03am Pinetop Trungpa:

Cocktails for all.

10:05am Uncle Michael:

Fun fact: Lobo produced this for Stafford. The two of them and Gram Parsons went to high school together and were all in a band.

10:05am Daily Layme:

My girl bill is pretty steep.

10:06am still b/p:

I can assist all the worthy commenting clergy as the wackolyte.

🥁

10:06am Artie Haywire:

The cellist is Michael Penha (not Penna). It looks as though this moving image was originally constructed as a gif animation, working from this source: www.loc.gov... Kevin Weir of fluxmachine seems to specialize in this sort of manipulation.

10:06am Alex In Illinois:

English teachers can use that Jim Stafford song to teach the importance of comma placement.

🥁

10:08am βrian:

@Alex. Actually, I think it remains ambiguous, but the comma should be there either way.

🥁

10:10am βrian:

A well executed pause there, Doug.

10:10am still b/p:

I recall an Electric Company sketch illustrating the role of punctuation in meaning with an unpunctuated sign: "private property no fishing allowed"
This could help us all.

10:11am sinner:

Jesus is from Alabammy. Please don't blaspheme.

10:11am Doug Schulkind:

Hey, Pintope Trungpa!

The pause that refreshes or at lest rebuffers, βrian.

10:12am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
Time to eat grandma! (Time to eat, grandma.) That always makes me laugh. (Grandma not so much.)

@sinner!
My mistake. I will burn in Hell (i.e. Mississippi)

10:14am Alex In Illinois:

@still b/p: wackolyte! I can't believe that I never thought of that! Especially after that time when my friend Mike was the usher Acolyte wearing pious-looking white robe and holding this pole with a brass cross on top with one hand while guiding people to the communion rail with the other, and got my foot with the bottom end of the pole. He had become a Wackolyte.

🥁

10:15am Artie Haywire:

Hot damn! A garage rock set from Doug!!

10:17am Doug Schulkind:

@Artie Haywire
Even I have to clean out the garage every once in a while. (Even if it means kicking grandma out.)

🥁

10:18am listener james from westwood:

This Filh cut is delightfully batshit. A batshit delight!

10:18am Rabbi Jingo:

Jesus was from Surrey, and had a fringe.

10:20am coelacanth:

what the hell is going on here?!!

Howdy Doug and Drummers

this is Wild!

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

The Batshit Delights. I loved their early stuff, before they sold out.

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

If you can't stand the heat, coelacanth, sit.

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome aboard, Rabbi J! Are you related to Doctor J?

10:23am Dominick:

Oh hell yeah!

🥁

10:24am βrian:

Everything I know about rabbis, I learned from Watership Down.

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

@Dominick
Or Oklahoma Hell Yeah (see Henson Cargill's contribution to the playlist).

10:28am coelacanth:

i AM sitting; but i Like the heat. may i stand now?

10:30am Doug Schulkind:

Hahaha, you didn't say "Simon says," coelacanth!

10:34am coelacanth:

Simon says i missed me some badass bluesy-jazzy set.

10:35am Simon:

The best is yet to come.

10:40am coelacanth:

aw say it ain't so. i'm compelled to get myself back outside to work soon.

🥁

10:41am βrian:

Why are leaf blowers legal to use anywhere? Get a rake!

10:41am coelacanth:

what is this "rake"?

🥁

10:41am listener james from westwood:

Any way Leaf Blower Man can be reported to your equivalent of 311 out there?

10:41am ottovonbqe:

People love leaf blowers. There's a guy in the building next to mine who will blow a single leaf for half an hour.

10:42am Jeff Golick:

Here we go, yo.

10:42am Panjandrum Bobby McGee:

Energy wasting and load as shit? You mean...American....?

10:42am 67:

i agree but sometimes its a paycheck for somebody...

10:43am Sarah N:

Leaf rakers of the world unite! Make leaf mould! Seedlings love it.

10:43am ottovonbqe:

I don't understand leaf rakers either. Why does man need to clean up the leaves that fall to the earth? Asinine.

10:44am Alex In Illinois:

. . . and what about all of the extra unnecessary dust and junk they stir up? Some are electric, but many are gasoline powered, as if we needed yet another way to burn fossil fuels.

10:44am coelacanth:

we (where i'm working) have a no-blower rule for the groundskeepers. ...also a rule that the back of the mowers are open,so the cut grass (weeds) get thrown back to where it belongs. (the ground)

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

@ottovonbqe
Now call that performance art and I can get behind it.

@Panjandrum Bobby McGee
Blow THIS [object hidden by a big, yes, leaf], stupid Americans!

10:46am northguineahills:

Wow, this is a nice Howard Riley!

10:46am 67:

thats whatcha get for fallin out of your nice tree. now get back up there

10:47am Jagannath The Tiny:

Seriously though, energy consumption for it's own sake is essential for a capitalist economy.

10:48am ottovonbqe:

I wonder how much gas you could burn blowing a leaf from new york to california.

10:48am Doug Schulkind:

@67
Hug that tree!

10:48am glenn:

maybe so, but leaf blowers are awesome for cleaning off a freshly stripped roof, or a new floor deck.

10:49am glenn:

although i use a rake for leaves.

10:49am ottovonbqe:

you'd need a really sturdy leaf too...

10:49am coelacanth:

if it were up to me the leaves would be allowed to stay were they fell- to do what nature intends them to do...& we'd have healthier trees for it.
...and there'd be as many,if not more people employed if more things were done without power tools.

10:50am Doug Schulkind:

@ottovonbqe
The leaves in California are already burning, unfortunately.

10:51am Doug Schulkind:

Jagannath The Tiny speaks are large truth.

10:52am Kalki At Last:

@ the old fish...agree with you there. Let it be!

10:53am ottovonbqe:

Well, what if I blew a whole pile of succulent leaves to California - could their moisture be extracted to save the day? I'd be a hero...

10:53am mr c:

Shout out for Jimmy Giuffre!

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@ottovonbqe
That idea succs.

10:54am Jeff Golick:

It must suck to be a working jazz musician, plying your trade, only to see an album emerge from FIFTY YEARS AGO that is as great is this Giuffre.

10:54am still b/p:

I think Forrest Gump inadvertently invented the leaf blower and then pursued a lone leaf coast-to-coast repeatedly.

10:54am coelacanth:

ottovonbqe, you better get on that!

10:55am 67tele:

they think you're so pretty when you're luscious and new, then when you're all old and dried out they either want to blow you away, scrape you up or smoke you - lets face it its tough being a leaf

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

@Mr C
Funny, he doesn't look Giuish.

Forgot to say HEY to you, Jeff Golick!

10:57am Leif:

a Thankless job.

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

Leif: Me alone

10:59am Doug Schulkind:

Hi up there, northguineahills!

10:59am mr c:

10:59am Sarah N:

Take a leaf out of my book and eat mille-feuille. Cake is usually the answer.

11:00am coelacanth:

you're never alone. just follow your family tree.

11:00am Fatfuck Knowitall:

If Leif Ericson had stayed at home we'd have no leaf blowers.

11:02am 67tele:

im sure some would say that Leif staying home would have solved a lot of problems...

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

@Fatfuck Knowitall
Or at least Leif blowers.

11:05am Zeus By Jove:

Otherwise known as Mrs Ericson.

11:06am Jeff Golick:

The juju that he do so well.

11:06am coelacanth:

i knew someone from iceland who probably was ... never mind.

11:07am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
Funny, he doesn't look Jujuish.

11:07am 67tele:

ba da bing...i was wondering when the blower jokes were going to start

11:08am Doug Schulkind:

Zeus By Jove is here!

11:09am northguineahills:

@67tele: But then we'd still have that ole Iceland situation to contend w//

11:11am Parq:

Good morning, Doug and all. Maybe he just needs a nice Jujuish girl.

11:11am Parq:

But not one of those whiny Jujuish princesses.

11:12am still b/p:

In Iceland, they get them noisy tephra-blowers goin' at all hours.

11:12am Alex In Illinois:

But after a year or so, Leif left.

11:14am 67tele:

he retired to his garrett...ok ill stop now. its getting too hard doing the math problems to get on here anyway

11:15am coelacanth:

Doug i sadly need to get back to work. (well it's not that sad. it's actually good. and there're archives. yeah,Life is good...)

-anyway, Thank you! i'll return to this one sooner than later.
ciao peeps.

11:15am Alex In Illinois:

@67tele: Kicking myself for not thinking of that one.

11:17am Doug Schulkind:

The flip side of this Simba 45? It's a cover of "Louie Louie."

Good morning to you, Sir Parq!

11:17am Mike East:

@coelacanth - I like that positive parenthetical attitude. happy friday.
morning, all. life IS good.

11:19am Doug Schulkind:

Mike East, blows in on a breeze of positivity!

11:19am ck:

Great show this a.m., dancing in my chair at work

11:21am Mike East:

ha - google xoliso and a blog mentioning our DJ is the first hit...of course!

11:21am Doug Schulkind:

Glad you're chairdancing, ck!

11:22am Dean:

I'm dancing in somebody else's chair. Shhhhh.

11:23am Doug Schulkind:

I bet you are flash dancing with somebody else's chair at work, Dean. Better clean up all that water.

11:25am Dean:

We got a drought here. Any water helps.

11:25am Uncle Michael:

Please join me at the top of the hour.

www.wfmu.org...

11:26am Pope Abba:

Dancing Dean

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Pope Abba makes a "Dancing Queen" joke! I love this new pope!

11:27am Dean:

...the dancing machine.

These are the times in which we live, Moore's Law and all that. Soon we'll have machines to do our dancing for us. It'll take one to tango.

11:29am Carmichael:

Heya Doug and and cello sawers. Yes, we have quite enough leaves here, on fire or not. Don't send us any weeds either. Although weed is fine.

11:30am Doug Schulkind:

Happy tokey-toke to you, Carmichael!

11:31am northguineahills:

If I don't get back on the board before noon, thanks Doug, and have a great weekend!

11:31am Pope Perry:

Ya wan fey herb?

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

Cheers, northguineahills!

11:34am Sarah N:

Sense sea millieu? Pass the duggy.

11:34am Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
What is Moore's Law?

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

@Mike East
The good peeps at ElectricJive!

🥁

11:39am Brian in UK:

Quick hello Doug, horridly packing pre-holiday. No chance to listen the crazy cricket has my attention.

11:39am ndbob:

en.wikipedia.org...

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

Let me play some quick-packing music for you, Brian in UK!

🥁

11:42am Brian in UK:

Flight of the Bumble Bee perhaps. I was stung by a wasp yesterday INSIDE ones trousers. Should have worn my bicycle clips.

11:42am Dean:

Moore's Law is shorthand for the rapidly increasing capacity of technology to perform more, and more complex, calculations. It was a remark in 1965 by one of the founders of Intel to the effect that the power of an integrated circuit (measured in the number of transistors) had doubled year after year. He predicted that pattern would continue, and he has been proven pretty much right. Think about that: since 1965 the power of an IC has increased on the order of 2^50. This is why we have greeting cards that sing to us.

🥁

11:42am βrian:

@BUK: Jiminy, I presume.

11:43am Dean:

Oops. Thanks, ndbob. Mistake in my precis: the doubling occurs every two years, so 2^25.

🥁

11:43am Brian in UK:

Happy to say that the wedding tackle is still in order.

11:43am Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
In other words, Moore is less.

11:44am Dean:

Wait a minute. This was a setup, wasn't it?

🥁

11:44am Brian in UK:

@βrian You bet. Totally bonkers.

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Uncle Michael says bottoms up at the top of the hour. (Note, due to the sexual frankness of the program, this is not an all-ages show.) Anyway, have a spanking good time with Uncle Michael, right here: wfmu.org...

🥁

11:45am βrian:

Now, sometimes a banana is just a banana.

11:46am Another Brian:

I can see my house from here.

🥁

11:46am Brian in UK:

Will try to czech in next week, will be on a coach from Vienna to Brno.

11:46am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
Be a Freud. Be very a Freud.

🥁

11:47am Brian in UK:

Might see Freud's house next week. There again........

11:48am Dean:

And sometimes a cigar is a banana.

🥁

11:49am Brian in UK:

Have a great weekend ever'one.

11:49am Forever Jung:

Freud was a muthafecka

11:50am mr c:

where's Peggy Scott?

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

Haha, Mr. C. He was out parallel parking the Bentley.

🥁

11:51am βrian:

(… spoken with more than a hint of schadenfreude)

11:53am Doug Schulkind:

At the nexus of leaf blowing and Sigmund Freud is Give the Drummer Some. That's a legacy I can live with.

11:53am Dead George:

Honky Games are played with a stick and a duck.

11:53am Uncle Michael:

See you all shortly. Thanks for the show, Doug!

🥁

11:54am Brian in UK:

@Dead George now if you had a picture of 'er indoors' I would be impressed.

🥁

11:54am βrian:

Stop calling us shortly.

11:54am Doug Schulkind:

@Dead George
I found your use of the word Honky in that context offensive. No not really. Honky honky honky honky!

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

Goin to a happening: wfmu.org...

11:55am mr c:

Sweet as always Fresh..

11:56am Irate And Little:

Sure, Unc Mic, but don't call me....

11:56am ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

11:56am Dean:

Rare Earth's "Get Ready" appeared a year later.

🥁

11:56am duke:

Thanks Sir Doug!

11:56am Jeff Golick:

Had a FANTABULOUS time, Would come again. Five stars.

🥁

11:56am listener james from westwood:

Julie, then Doug, then Uncle Michael? What a lineup! Thanks, Doug-in-the-middle!

🥁

11:57am βrian:

He is a bit of a show doug, isn't he?

11:59am Sarah N:

Birthday suit boy, whoo hoo!

11:59am Peter Nelson:

Thanks funny man.

12:00pm Doug Schulkind:

Peter the Nelson!

12:01pm Peter Nelson:

Ha Ha! T'was me.......

12:02pm Peter Nelson:
