	12:17pm Stanley: @holland oats: you said it!
	12:18pm Webhamster Henry: The music this set is on the Hinky side, not very Dinky at all. More Dinky!

	12:19pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinklings

	12:21pm Roberto: My 7th-grade class stopped in Fresno on the way to Yosemite in 1978.
	12:21pm Jeff g. via app: That Hookworms was really great.
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Doc!
	12:25pm Jeff g. via app: Dinksterians, @doc.
	12:27pm Rich in Washington: That's easy! Greyhounds! Lots of them!
	12:27pm Stanley: Do I like beer?
	12:27pm coelacanth∅: bellhaven scotish ale. that's the answer.
	12:28pm βrian: Oh my: archive.org...
	12:29pm Roberto: You called me out last week and you may call me out this or any forthcoming week.
	12:29pm Sem: ..at the shelter! Hahaha.
	12:29pm Rich in Washington: Excuse ME Uncle Michael! SOME of us are in PRISON! HELLO!
	12:29pm Dean: I'm cool with it. Romper Room, Sheriff John, Hobo Kelly...good analogy.
	12:29pm Artie: Despite what seems obvious, I am hardly unmentionable.
	12:29pm Stanley: I'll be heading out for some Scottish ale in a short while
	12:29pm coelacanth∅: i've seen people wag their tails when their names were mentioned, but maybe they were just dispersing their scents.
	12:29pm northguineahills: I have friends text me that they heard my name on WFMU, almost every time.
	12:29pm Oh Wah Tagoo Siam: I'm cool with it, too.
	12:30pm queems: i like when they do shandies with grapefruit juice
	12:30pm Pedro G.: Thoughts on Mr. Darvish? Six years is a long time. So are 4-year presidential terms.
	12:32pm Uncle Michael: Rich! Tagoo! Pedro! Big fan of the signing!
	🛒 12:32pm Brian in UK: McStanley here's to you.
	12:33pm Stanley: Cheers Brian (burp!)
	🛒 12:34pm Brian in UK: Got some Goose beer in the cellar.
	12:34pm Stanley: A gottle of goose
	🛒 12:35pm Brian in UK: Gollocks.
	12:35pm pescivegetarian∅: i guess i can't have that
	12:35pm northguineahills: @Stanley: lucky you, I have probably 8 more hours to go.
	12:36pm Jeff g. via app: I admire the sensitivity with which you approach the listener mentioning thing, @UM. I always get a little charge out of hearing my name mentioned. Maybe shouldn't assume that the same is true for one and all.
	12:37pm coelacanth∅: yeh i wont be drinking any alcoholic beverages until at least 9 hours from now. (though i did put some wine in my clam chowder i just finished)
	12:37pm Little Danny: Late mornin' all
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Danny!
	12:38pm coelacanth∅: ey Danny
	12:39pm still b/p: I got a gift bottle of Allagash Tripel Ale the other day. Gift beer tastes great.
	12:39pm Stanley: @Jeff - it's a great honour to be mentioned at the top of each show. Sadly my term is about up and I shall be handing over to another.
	🛒 12:39pm Brian in UK: Peter Green around Oh Well, Albatross and Green Manalishi! are sublime and this is not from an electric guitar lover. Such a sad loss.
	12:40pm βrian: What other "home towns" were there? The playlist gives no clue.
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Stanley, you can still pledge $365 even if you don't want to be my dad anymore...just sayin'.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Brian, there's a clue above each playlist in the form of a link.
	12:42pm coelacanth∅: sad loss? Peter Green didn't die did he?!!
	🛒 12:42pm Brian in UK: The only English place name in song I can think of is Kettering by Principal Edwards Magic Theatre. Dreadful.
	12:42pm northguineahills: Ok, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers and Kin Ping Meh are new to me,
	🛒 12:43pm Brian in UK: @coelacanth∅ no but the acid killed him, he never came back.
	12:44pm coelacanth∅: right, true.
	12:44pm Stanley: Uncle - can I be your uncle, instead?
	12:45pm Stanley: Brian - what about Watford Gap?
	12:45pm northguineahills: Stanley, would Uncle Tio do?
	12:45pm βrian: Ah, ok. Not much else shows up on archive.org.
	12:46pm Mark Hurst: Enjoying this Neu! track
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Absolutely. As long as you can pull a silver dollar out of my ear.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Mark!
	🛒 12:46pm Brian in UK: Uncle is that Raisin' sand eels for a living? The title of todays show.
	12:47pm northguineahills: Yeah, I totally missed this Neu!
	🛒 12:47pm Brian in UK: Stanley who sang it?
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: @Brian....mayyyyyyyyyyybe...
	12:48pm βrian: Neither Watford Gap nor Synaptic Gap.
	12:49pm Stanley: Roy Harper (altogether now - "Plate of grease and a load of crap")
	12:50pm coelacanth∅: "london town"; "manchester,england"; "a song about the boys from liverpool"...
	🛒 12:51pm Brian in UK: Stanley, prefer Nobodies Got Any Money in the Summer. The number of songs about UK towns is limited compared to the USA.
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Yus
	12:55pm βrian: The Fresno song catalog record, if you're interested: archive.org...
	12:55pm burke: Sour fruit works with IPA too if you're into exploring heresy, which I am too.
	12:55pm Artie: Can't speak for the Brits, but I've understood that Shandies can have various additions to beer and not just lemonade - ginger ale, ginger beer, bitter lemon, etc.
	12:55pm Stanley: Guinness and bitter lemon - well off the mark. Sounds like a drink ordered by mistake.
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: i forgot that existed. my father always had schwepps bitter lemon in the cabinet.
	12:56pm Marie: It's a different kind of lemonade
	🛒 12:56pm Brian in UK: Black Velvet, Guinness and champagne is popular but a crime to both drinks.
	12:57pm ?: pancakes?
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: You people aren't sufficiently offended by my beverage. I' offended.
	12:58pm Marie: I believe it comes premade in a bottle--not sure exactly what it is--and usually combined with a lager, not a Guiness. I have had some delicious shandies in Ireland and England. So nice on a hot summer day!
	🛒 12:58pm Brian in UK: Homemade lemonade is flat and lovely. Commercial lemonade is carbonated and sweet.
	12:58pm Stanley: Over here a shandy is traditionally half a bitter (ale) and half lemonade (fizzy). You can also have a lager shandy, lager being what most people in the world today call 'beer'.
	12:58pm ?: stax...
	12:59pm Artie: I would think that some of the San Pellegrino sodas would work well with the right beers. Their Aranciata serves as a well improved bitter lemon. Not sure about these adulterated Guinness concoctions. One of those "gotta try it to be sure" deals I suppose.
	1:00pm Stanley: Or a 'lemonade top' - an inch of lemonade in your ale to take the bitterness off.
	1:00pm βrian: I that drink is called a "Hangover" in Wisconsin.
	1:00pm ?: lager & lime, mmm,refreshing!
	1:01pm northguineahills: Sisters of Mercy (I have a goth spot in my heart).
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: Speaking of San Pellegrino...chinnotto floats. OMG.
	1:01pm Stanley: In France a shandy is called a 'Panache' (pronounced panachay)
	1:02pm Dean: Bass player here used to sell cosmetics at a now defunct department store in the town where I grew up.
	1:02pm Stanley: Jeez, I've just worked out what this track is.
	1:04pm Rich in Washington: Some of those San Pellegrinos work great with gin and liqueurs such as Pimm's Fruit Cup No.1.
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Well, Wisconsin has Leinenkugal's "Summer Shandy."
	1:05pm Rich in Washington: I should try a shandy, though. Totally new to me.
	1:05pm coelacanth∅: yeh never heard this. 'sgot nothing on hot chocolate but still good
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: One of the weirder casualties of my quitting smoking was beer. For some reason, I seldom drink beer since I quit. Not sure what the correlation is, but it's something I recently noticed. Weird considering I live in a city known for its 'artisanal' beer community.
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: san pellegrino grapefruit is the only soda pop i drink (sometimes). not bad with gin either.
	1:07pm βrian: I like chunks of pineapple and oranges in my fruit cups.
	1:08pm βrian: What I'd really like to try is Artesian beer, from one of those perpetually flowing wells.
	1:10pm Rich in Washington: @βrian: that was a running joke in the 70s for one of our local beer companies, after years of boasting of Artesian well water, some advertising smartypants did a series of ads exploring who the Artesians were, what happened to them, etc. I can't remember which company it was. Maybe Olympia?
	1:11pm queems: @coelacanthø agreed about the san pellegrino grapefruit and gin combo. it is also very good with tequila
	1:11pm Stanley: In a pub in Edinburgh, I once ordered a whisky with ice. I asked the barman if this drink had a special name (vaguely remembering 'Scotch on the Rocks', or something) to which he replied. Around here it's called An Abomination.
	1:11pm βrian: Oddly, it turns out "Artesian" derives from the French "Artois," as in Stella Artois ...
	1:12pm Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: re: grapefruit San Pellegrino. That's the one! Also good with vodka and lime.
	1:12pm still b/p: THIS is the version the flower children were WAITING for back in the day!
	1:13pm coelacanth∅: noted with intrigue, queems
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: It buhs me that San Pellegrino chinnotto only comes in those puny bottles.
	1:13pm Rich in Washington: I bought the blood orange one by mistake once and it didn't play well with gin (but I drank it just the same!).
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: SBP! right?
	1:14pm Stanley: Gin goes with anything...like breakfast
	1:14pm Sem: One hit wonder, Paul Mauriat.
	1:14pm Rich in Washington: What an jaunty number!
	1:14pm Dean: Schweppe's Bitter Lemon n/a? It is here in CA (and AZ and WA), and for out-of-state delivery, too. http://www.bevmo.com/schweppes-bitter-lemon--6pk-10-oz-.html
	1:15pm geezerette: There's a "dessert" at our local burger joint called a Guiness Float, Stout with a scoop of ice cream, which would make us stout too. Haven't tried it 'cause it's just...wrong. Probably delicious though.
	1:15pm Rich in Washington: We have a Bevmo near my house. Sounds like the name of a maximum security prison, donnit?
	1:16pm still b/p: Editing UM's Wikipedia page: "Loves shandies and wears flower in his hair."
	1:17pm βrian: Stanley, what about straight versus neat? I worked in restaurants for years, and they were always interchangeable, though "neat" was rarely used as a term. But in other parts of the country, I found that "straight" means strained over ice.
	1:17pm coelacanth∅: did king arthur wear flowers in his hair? in his motorcycle helmet? did he wear flour in his beard? in his carharts?
	1:17pm Roberto: True confessions with Uncle Michael.
	1:19pm geezerette: herding cats,UM... :D
	1:19pm still b/p: There's an Eataly in Boston. So weird.
	1:19pm burke: I can see how the soft serve would be a real blank canvas for the cinotto.
	1:19pm Stanley: βrian:that's an American thing. Here it's always served as it is 'neat' to which you add water or not, depending on taste.
	1:19pm Sem: OK, Beefheart for apres lunch.
	1:20pm Stanley: She sure could shoot em down. Nice one Unc
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the link, Dean.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette!
	1:22pm geezerette: Howdy!
	1:22pm Stanley: Talking of beer, there's a pint of 'Old Scrotum' waiting with my name on it. See ya later y'all
	1:23pm northguineahills: Senor Coconut!!!!!!!
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: kraftwerk cover? weird.
	1:23pm listener james from westwood: El Coconut!
	1:23pm βrian: I miss being able to buy 8-packs of longnecks. Some of those bottles had been refilled dozens of times, easily. Well worn.
	1:23pm Dean: There's so much about Eataly I can't stand without ever having set foot in one. The stupid facile pun. The clever overused adverbial suffix. The fact that that jerk Batali owns a share...
	1:23pm Sem: Mind how you go, Stanley.
	1:23pm βrian: @Stanley: Talk about "tripping balls" ...
	1:24pm Listening Out There: Cha Cha
	1:24pm northguineahills: I like how Senor Coconut is a departure from Atom(tm)'s clinical severe minimal techno, or his Atom Heart house-techno projects.
	1:24pm Sem: hahaha.
	1:24pm northguineahills: There's an Eataly in Manhattan if I'm not mistaken.
	1:25pm Stanley: It's artisanal βrian, my friend
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: LOT!
	1:25pm Dean: I have strolled past the Manhattan Eataly. Kept walking.
	1:26pm βrian: Can we segue to Limoncello? I've had only one instance that I liked — very bitter and citrus-y. Had to be served icey cold and was almost overwhelming.
	1:28pm Rich in Washington: Mr. Funky!
	1:30pm johnk77: listening to this great show while wearing Carhartts also, the Eataly in Manhattan is good, but expensive just realized it is a chain
	1:30pm still b/p: Exactly, Dean. The same approach somewhere as a one-off festival might be more appealing, or no more appealing but at least understandable as a simultaneously warped and genericized creation in a Disney attraction, but as a permanent thing...it's weird, goofy, spiritless, unfortunate bourgeois or wannabe bourgeois foodie-ism. That's a one-visit judgment. Hah!
	1:30pm Rich in Washington: Rufus' scene in Wattstax. Must be seen!
	1:31pm The Oscar: Afternoon all! I always forget until I hear it how legitimately good that Senor Coconut album is.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: We have a bottle of Limoncello that was bought for some dessert. There must be cocktails that make good use of it.
	1:31pm Rich in Washington: I hear Andy Partridge is recording stuff again.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: John! Carharts?! Oscar!
	1:35pm βrian: Is it de rigueur to wear Carhartts when shopping at Eataly?
	1:36pm Rich in Washington: This sounds like my high school art instructor Mr. Lowry. He'd leave the classroom briefly and return reeking of scotch and whistling cheerfully, loudly.
	1:38pm frenchee: I feel like this is gonna make me cry. Is this gonna make me cry, Uncle Michael? oh no~ Here come the bright lights!
	1:38pm still b/p: A whole gang -- 30 or 40 men and women -- in Carhartt coveralls swaggering into Eataly....now you're talkin'.
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: frenchee...
	1:39pm frenchee: @still b/p: they also make Carhart togs for dogs....just sayin'
	1:39pm Dean: My high school chemistry and physics teacher never smelled of alcohol, but he did spend considerable time demonstrating how he hoped to construct a nuclear fallout shelter out of six-packs of beer. By the time he drank his way out, radioactivity would have declined to a safer level.
	1:41pm still b/p: @frenchee...magnifico/magnifique!
	1:44pm Alex in Illinois: My albums had the same life cycle. I also checked out records from the library and made cassettes for my car.
	1:44pm Roberto: You may get funky, Unky.
	1:44pm coelacanth∅: Rich (in W) our mr. lowry was mr. miller, wood shop teacher. he was a bit too physical with the little girls
	1:45pm still b/p: If there's another request show, would you go for a triple...? So we can check the prominent alignment? - Melancholy Serenade - Nuages - If He Walked Into My Life
	1:46pm geezerette: There's Citarella for the one percent, Zabar's for the formerly middle class, and Eataly for what, tourists? Is Eataly the Old Navy of "Italian" food? Sabarro's used to fill that niche. The one in ,(shudder), Times Square was great for people watching.
	1:46pm coelacanth∅: i made a tape of any album that i knew i'd be listening to more than rarely. i still have them all, the tdks still sounding good.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Alex! SBP, how about I just steal that idea?
	1:46pm βrian: Mr. Miller, always alluding to the virtues of good wood, no doubt.
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: Our drama teacher was way too fond of the female student body. His then wife was a former student. He was also rather young, but his dalliances with students was considered less taboo back then that it would be today.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: I never had a straight drama teacher.
	1:48pm Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: I still have lots of tapes I made in the interest of portability. They still sound pretty good. It's amusing that there's this meme with the youngsters today that cassettes sounded terrible.
	1:48pm βrian: It was referred to as "mentoring" back in the day.
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: βrian he may have been! i didn't catch it
	1:49pm Dean: One of the drama teachers, the beloved Earl the Pearl, was an absolute hoot. I don't think he ever crossed the line, though he would on occasion seem too familiar with the young ladies. I'll never forget paging through the National Lampoon high school annual parody with him one summer during a break from production. Hearty laughter, tears. He, too, was an adolescent.
	1:49pm Rich in Washington: It's funny, actually, UM.. Our Drama teacher came off as somewhat effeminate. A lot of us thought when he'd sidle up to one of us boys and say something risque about a female student to us, we thought he was fronting. Nope. He was a hosebeast.
	1:50pm Dean: Some breaks we'd put the Woodstock soundtrack on the crappy turntable. Hendrix, Alvin Lee...
	1:52pm johnk77: the Eataly on 23rd St. featured a mostly posh clientele dressed in a up-scale fashion I was the only 1 with Carhartts:>
	1:52pm coelacanth∅: Rich, maybe it's really true - that meme that youngsters today are thoroughly braindead!
	1:53pm coelacanth∅: (now i have to go look up "meme")
	1:53pm The Oscar: Don't recall many overtly pervy teachers, but many in retrospect were huge potheads and weirdos. We had a Spanish teacher who once showed us a video he and his friends made recreating the "Sabotage" video in Mexico City. I spent a semester helping him with sorting papers, and he repayed me with a Dead Milkmen cassette from the floor of his car.
	1:54pm Dean: Boy, is the playlist grammar challenged today. First we get "I Don't Think Much About Her No More," and just now a flip-side that should read, "I Know To Whom You Have Been Socking It." Really kills the vibe.
	1:56pm coelacanth∅: i had trouble enjoying that song too. atrocious grammar!
	1:56pm The Oscar: @Dean The Wu Tang Clan is Not Something with Which to Fuck.
	1:57pm still b/p: Heyyy, I like this Showdown.
	1:57pm johnk77: I am so vintage I saw King Curtis live Also Con Funk Shun was very pro and easy to work with the 1 time I mixed sound for them in mid to late 70s well-done funky set selecter @UM
	1:57pm Dean: I like the flow, @The Oscar, homey.
	1:57pm geezerette: Bad grammar don't bother me.
	1:58pm northguineahills: The Oscar drills a welcome earworm into me noggin.
	1:58pm coelacanth∅: actually i got the impression that mickey newbury really WAS thinking about her; so, his statement was true.
	1:58pm Dean: Dropped a comma there, @geezerette, between "grammar" and "don't."
	1:59pm βrian: Well, it's about lunch time. Let's eat geezerette!
	1:59pm coelacanth∅: i'll ask mr. miller what he's having.
	2:00pm geezerette: !!!
	2:01pm geezerette: Dean, intentional. :D
	2:03pm gloomsday: hi everyone! sorry i'm jumping in so late :'(
	2:04pm geezerette: I am inedible. OOH, LOVE "A Certain Girl". Almost any version.
	2:04pm still b/p: Summer I turned 15, a friend and I went out of town for the summer with a 27 year old teacher to work someplace (27 seems young, but at our age, his adult age could've been much further along -- he didn't seem "young" ) He bought us porn, let us try a cocktail, spoke and joked with us as if WE were older. It was the early 70s, which seems like a more fitting framing and explanation than him being creepy or too strangely inclined to corrupting us yoots.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: gloomsday!
	2:05pm coelacanth∅: hi gloomsday geez, you mean like a coelacanth? that can't be.
	2:05pm βrian: My sharpie markers were marked as inedible. I sure proved them wrong!
	2:06pm doctorjazz: Nice version of "A Certain Girl" (partial to the Zevon version)
	2:06pm The Oscar: I really hope he does the spoken bit in the bridge.
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: but then, maybe it's time to turn our attention to puppydogs or oriental rugs or impressionist paintings; or, music
	2:07pm The Oscar: Whoa, I was joking!
	🛒 2:07pm Brian in UK: The Beatles recorded Leave My Kitten Alone. It was a popular cover at the time Little Willie John had it tied down.
	2:08pm geezerette: haha, eek! Coel, your species is inedible? Has anyone ever tried? Aren't you rather rare? BTW, that painting was by L.A. artist Tim Ebner.
	2:09pm coelacanth∅: and we know the beatles never used metaphors or sang anything toung-in-cheek
	2:10pm coelacanth∅: ("tongue")
	2:11pm Asheville Jon: yay for LOVE
	🛒 2:11pm Brian in UK: Oh Arthur, still sounds good fifty years later.
	2:11pm Wendy del Formaggio: Arthur Lyman to Arthur Lee! Nice segue, Uncle Michael.
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: g, yes apparently pretty awful. in fact there's nothing that makes me valuable.
	2:12pm Asheville Jon: the Forever Changes live concerts are so darn good
	2:12pm geezerette: 4.bp.blogspot.com... More Tim Ebner fish. :)
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: that's not the name of this!
	🛒 2:12pm Brian in UK: And fifty years earlier was 1917. Have we moved on?
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Wendy!
	2:13pm still b/p: I enjoyed the Havah Nagila but as a real celebratory get up and move piece it was a little "meh-zel tov."
	2:13pm coelacanth∅: ha - yes it is!
	2:14pm Dean: I felt the same about the King Pin Meh during the second set.
	2:14pm coelacanth∅: (my playlist has the last 5 words cut off)
	2:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: Uncle Michael! <3
	2:15pm βrian: Our governor once toasted a group of diners by raising his glass and saying "Molotov!"
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: g, nice fish!
	🛒 2:15pm Brian in UK: Hello Wendy. The Vacherin this Christmas did not quite hit the spot for some reason, Still good though.
	2:16pm geezerette: Brian, how rude of him!
	2:18pm βrian: Go for the Banon next time, @BUK.
	2:18pm Dean: Strictly speaking, a motion to continue wraps up the current meeting until some later time specified in the motion.
	2:20pm βrian: You'd need a riding crop to speak that strictly.
	2:20pm still b/p: Jeezuz, yah...proto-ELP .
	2:21pm Dean: Who doesn't have a riding crop?
	2:22pm βrian: (I think some thought he was about to throw the glass.)
	2:23pm geezerette: Can one ever actually be lonely in the Navy?
	2:24pm βrian: As lonely as a sardine.
	2:24pm still b/p: I'll run and get my riding crop in the stable and grab my copy of Robert's Rules of Ordure while I'm there. (Someone actually wrote one.)
	2:24pm Dean: Lots of sailors are loners who spend their time contemplating their navels.
	2:25pm geezerette: hahaha! :)
	2:25pm βrian: Naval navels. Aye.
	2:25pm still b/p: Lonely and semaphore-lorn.
	2:25pm Roberto: I Love this Bread.
	2:27pm βrian: — Thanks for flagging me down. — Hey, what's a semaphore, anyway?
	2:27pm Dean: I used to jeer at Bread concerts just to get a rise out of them.
	2:28pm Stevel: Gilbert O'Sullivan from 1978? Whoda thunk it?
	2:28pm geezerette: haha, Dean, you're on a roll!
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: The didn't knead that kind of trouble, Dean.
	2:28pm βrian: Bread is the root cause of the opioid epidemic. In France, in any case.
	2:28pm Dean: David Gates often appeared on stage high as a kite, completely toasted.
	2:29pm geezerette: You guys! :D
	2:30pm Dean: So you're saying, @βrian, it's a pandemic?
	2:30pm still b/p: ...Rode the crust of the wave until they were over the heel.
	2:30pm βrian: Yeah, colon-upper-case D!
	2:31pm βrian: Sorry about the pain, folks. But what's an oven four, anyway?
	2:32pm Artie: Some sort of yeast infection, I'd imagine.
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: Puns are the yeast of our worries.
	2:33pm geezerette: UM, you're the BEST bad influence.
	2:33pm βrian: I worry our leavened hour has come.
	2:34pm still b/p: These puns have a rye quality...kinda the loaf of the party.
	2:34pm Dean: Had this conversation at a restaurant I once frequented: Server: May I take your order? Me: I'll have a ham and Swiss on white, grilled. Server: Would you like cheese on that? Me: Swiss. Server: What kind of bread? Me: White. Server: Grilled or toasted? Me: Grilled.
	2:35pm geezerette: Sounds like an out take from "Five Easy Pizzas".
	2:35pm βrian: You have to expect them to grill you.
	2:36pm Dean: Speaking of sailors...or was that The Last Detail?
	2:37pm still b/p: Jack Pumpernickelson was great in both of those.
	2:37pm geezerette: I love chips.
	2:38pm Dean: I saw him here in Berkeley with (the person) Brinsley Schwarz. I was as excited to meet Mr. Schwarz as Mr. Parker.
	2:38pm geezerette: "Pumpernickelson"!!! :)
	2:39pm Dean: A wry pun.

	2:44pm Sem: Bye, G.!
	2:44pm geezerette: Sem, good one!
	2:45pm frenchee: Seems appropriate that I'm assigning books about opioid addiction and cannabis while I listen to this GD jam.
	2:45pm βrian: I knew a real deadhead. We'd offer him treats if he danced for us.
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: take care,g. watch out for punctuation errors.
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Let it Shine, Shine, Shine!!!!
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Ahhhh.....
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: Fuckin' Phil...man....
	2:47pm βrian: A simple how-to manual usually suffices for opioid addiction, in my view.

	2:55pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hanging out today friends!
	2:56pm Roberto: OMG hamster!
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: poor hamster never had a chance. just some basic safety education and a practical self-defense course should do it.
	2:56pm Dean: Trigger warning, for chrissakes!
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: That was odd!
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: hey that didn't sound like a hamster! 'sounded like a chipmunk to me.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 16, 2018

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:29pm Dean: I'm cool with it. Romper Room, Sheriff John, Hobo Kelly...good analogy.
	12:29pm Artie: Despite what seems obvious, I am hardly unmentionable.
	12:29pm Stanley: I'll be heading out for some Scottish ale in a short while
	12:29pm coelacanth∅: i've seen people wag their tails when their names were mentioned, but maybe they were just dispersing their scents.
	12:29pm northguineahills: I have friends text me that they heard my name on WFMU, almost every time.
	12:29pm Oh Wah Tagoo Siam: I'm cool with it, too.
	12:30pm queems: i like when they do shandies with grapefruit juice
	12:30pm Pedro G.: Thoughts on Mr. Darvish? Six years is a long time. So are 4-year presidential terms.

	🛒 12:35pm Brian in UK: Gollocks.
	12:35pm pescivegetarian∅: i guess i can't have that
	12:35pm northguineahills: @Stanley: lucky you, I have probably 8 more hours to go.
	12:36pm Jeff g. via app: I admire the sensitivity with which you approach the listener mentioning thing, @UM. I always get a little charge out of hearing my name mentioned. Maybe shouldn't assume that the same is true for one and all.
	12:37pm coelacanth∅: yeh i wont be drinking any alcoholic beverages until at least 9 hours from now. (though i did put some wine in my clam chowder i just finished)

	12:39pm Stanley: @Jeff - it's a great honour to be mentioned at the top of each show. Sadly my term is about up and I shall be handing over to another.
	🛒 12:39pm Brian in UK: Peter Green around Oh Well, Albatross and Green Manalishi! are sublime and this is not from an electric guitar lover. Such a sad loss.
	12:40pm βrian: What other "home towns" were there? The playlist gives no clue.
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Stanley, you can still pledge $365 even if you don't want to be my dad anymore...just sayin'.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Brian, there's a clue above each playlist in the form of a link.
	12:42pm coelacanth∅: sad loss? Peter Green didn't die did he?!!
	🛒 12:42pm Brian in UK: The only English place name in song I can think of is Kettering by Principal Edwards Magic Theatre. Dreadful.
	12:42pm northguineahills: Ok, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers and Kin Ping Meh are new to me,
	🛒 12:43pm Brian in UK: @coelacanth∅ no but the acid killed him, he never came back.
	12:44pm coelacanth∅: right, true.
	12:44pm Stanley: Uncle - can I be your uncle, instead?
	12:45pm Stanley: Brian - what about Watford Gap?
	12:45pm northguineahills: Stanley, would Uncle Tio do?
	12:45pm βrian: Ah, ok. Not much else shows up on archive.org.
	12:46pm Mark Hurst: Enjoying this Neu! track
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Absolutely. As long as you can pull a silver dollar out of my ear.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Mark!
	🛒 12:46pm Brian in UK: Uncle is that Raisin' sand eels for a living? The title of todays show.
	12:47pm northguineahills: Yeah, I totally missed this Neu!
	🛒 12:47pm Brian in UK: Stanley who sang it?
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: @Brian....mayyyyyyyyyyybe...
	12:48pm βrian: Neither Watford Gap nor Synaptic Gap.
	12:49pm Stanley: Roy Harper (altogether now - "Plate of grease and a load of crap")
	12:50pm coelacanth∅: "london town"; "manchester,england"; "a song about the boys from liverpool"...
	🛒 12:51pm Brian in UK: Stanley, prefer Nobodies Got Any Money in the Summer. The number of songs about UK towns is limited compared to the USA.
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Yus
	12:55pm βrian: The Fresno song catalog record, if you're interested: archive.org...
	12:55pm burke: Sour fruit works with IPA too if you're into exploring heresy, which I am too.
	12:55pm Artie: Can't speak for the Brits, but I've understood that Shandies can have various additions to beer and not just lemonade - ginger ale, ginger beer, bitter lemon, etc.
	12:55pm Stanley: Guinness and bitter lemon - well off the mark. Sounds like a drink ordered by mistake.
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: i forgot that existed. my father always had schwepps bitter lemon in the cabinet.
	12:56pm Marie: It's a different kind of lemonade
	🛒 12:56pm Brian in UK: Black Velvet, Guinness and champagne is popular but a crime to both drinks.
	12:57pm ?: pancakes?
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: You people aren't sufficiently offended by my beverage. I' offended.
	12:58pm Marie: I believe it comes premade in a bottle--not sure exactly what it is--and usually combined with a lager, not a Guiness. I have had some delicious shandies in Ireland and England. So nice on a hot summer day!
	🛒 12:58pm Brian in UK: Homemade lemonade is flat and lovely. Commercial lemonade is carbonated and sweet.
	12:58pm Stanley: Over here a shandy is traditionally half a bitter (ale) and half lemonade (fizzy). You can also have a lager shandy, lager being what most people in the world today call 'beer'.
	12:58pm ?: stax...
	12:59pm Artie: I would think that some of the San Pellegrino sodas would work well with the right beers. Their Aranciata serves as a well improved bitter lemon. Not sure about these adulterated Guinness concoctions. One of those "gotta try it to be sure" deals I suppose.
	1:00pm Stanley: Or a 'lemonade top' - an inch of lemonade in your ale to take the bitterness off.
	1:00pm βrian: I that drink is called a "Hangover" in Wisconsin.
	1:00pm ?: lager & lime, mmm,refreshing!
	1:01pm northguineahills: Sisters of Mercy (I have a goth spot in my heart).
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: Speaking of San Pellegrino...chinnotto floats. OMG.
	1:01pm Stanley: In France a shandy is called a 'Panache' (pronounced panachay)
	1:02pm Dean: Bass player here used to sell cosmetics at a now defunct department store in the town where I grew up.
	1:02pm Stanley: Jeez, I've just worked out what this track is.
	1:04pm Rich in Washington: Some of those San Pellegrinos work great with gin and liqueurs such as Pimm's Fruit Cup No.1.
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Well, Wisconsin has Leinenkugal's "Summer Shandy."
	1:05pm Rich in Washington: I should try a shandy, though. Totally new to me.
	1:05pm coelacanth∅: yeh never heard this. 'sgot nothing on hot chocolate but still good
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: One of the weirder casualties of my quitting smoking was beer. For some reason, I seldom drink beer since I quit. Not sure what the correlation is, but it's something I recently noticed. Weird considering I live in a city known for its 'artisanal' beer community.
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: san pellegrino grapefruit is the only soda pop i drink (sometimes). not bad with gin either.
	1:07pm βrian: I like chunks of pineapple and oranges in my fruit cups.
	1:08pm βrian: What I'd really like to try is Artesian beer, from one of those perpetually flowing wells.
	1:10pm Rich in Washington: @βrian: that was a running joke in the 70s for one of our local beer companies, after years of boasting of Artesian well water, some advertising smartypants did a series of ads exploring who the Artesians were, what happened to them, etc. I can't remember which company it was. Maybe Olympia?
	1:11pm queems: @coelacanthø agreed about the san pellegrino grapefruit and gin combo. it is also very good with tequila
	1:11pm Stanley: In a pub in Edinburgh, I once ordered a whisky with ice. I asked the barman if this drink had a special name (vaguely remembering 'Scotch on the Rocks', or something) to which he replied. Around here it's called An Abomination.
	1:11pm βrian: Oddly, it turns out "Artesian" derives from the French "Artois," as in Stella Artois ...
	1:12pm Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: re: grapefruit San Pellegrino. That's the one! Also good with vodka and lime.
	1:12pm still b/p: THIS is the version the flower children were WAITING for back in the day!
	1:13pm coelacanth∅: noted with intrigue, queems
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: It buhs me that San Pellegrino chinnotto only comes in those puny bottles.
	1:13pm Rich in Washington: I bought the blood orange one by mistake once and it didn't play well with gin (but I drank it just the same!).
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: SBP! right?
	1:14pm Stanley: Gin goes with anything...like breakfast
	1:14pm Sem: One hit wonder, Paul Mauriat.
	1:14pm Rich in Washington: What an jaunty number!
	1:14pm Dean: Schweppe's Bitter Lemon n/a? It is here in CA (and AZ and WA), and for out-of-state delivery, too. http://www.bevmo.com/schweppes-bitter-lemon--6pk-10-oz-.html
	1:15pm geezerette: There's a "dessert" at our local burger joint called a Guiness Float, Stout with a scoop of ice cream, which would make us stout too. Haven't tried it 'cause it's just...wrong. Probably delicious though.
	1:15pm Rich in Washington: We have a Bevmo near my house. Sounds like the name of a maximum security prison, donnit?
	1:16pm still b/p: Editing UM's Wikipedia page: "Loves shandies and wears flower in his hair."
	1:17pm βrian: Stanley, what about straight versus neat? I worked in restaurants for years, and they were always interchangeable, though "neat" was rarely used as a term. But in other parts of the country, I found that "straight" means strained over ice.
	1:17pm coelacanth∅: did king arthur wear flowers in his hair? in his motorcycle helmet? did he wear flour in his beard? in his carharts?
	1:17pm Roberto: True confessions with Uncle Michael.
	1:19pm geezerette: herding cats,UM... :D
	1:19pm still b/p: There's an Eataly in Boston. So weird.
	1:19pm burke: I can see how the soft serve would be a real blank canvas for the cinotto.
	1:19pm Stanley: βrian:that's an American thing. Here it's always served as it is 'neat' to which you add water or not, depending on taste.
	1:19pm Sem: OK, Beefheart for apres lunch.
	1:20pm Stanley: She sure could shoot em down. Nice one Unc
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the link, Dean.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette!
	1:22pm geezerette: Howdy!
	1:22pm Stanley: Talking of beer, there's a pint of 'Old Scrotum' waiting with my name on it. See ya later y'all
	1:23pm northguineahills: Senor Coconut!!!!!!!
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: kraftwerk cover? weird.
	1:23pm listener james from westwood: El Coconut!
	1:23pm βrian: I miss being able to buy 8-packs of longnecks. Some of those bottles had been refilled dozens of times, easily. Well worn.
	1:23pm Dean: There's so much about Eataly I can't stand without ever having set foot in one. The stupid facile pun. The clever overused adverbial suffix. The fact that that jerk Batali owns a share...
	1:23pm Sem: Mind how you go, Stanley.
	1:23pm βrian: @Stanley: Talk about "tripping balls" ...
	1:24pm Listening Out There: Cha Cha
	1:24pm northguineahills: I like how Senor Coconut is a departure from Atom(tm)'s clinical severe minimal techno, or his Atom Heart house-techno projects.
	1:24pm Sem: hahaha.
	1:24pm northguineahills: There's an Eataly in Manhattan if I'm not mistaken.
	1:25pm Stanley: It's artisanal βrian, my friend
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: LOT!
	1:25pm Dean: I have strolled past the Manhattan Eataly. Kept walking.
	1:26pm βrian: Can we segue to Limoncello? I've had only one instance that I liked — very bitter and citrus-y. Had to be served icey cold and was almost overwhelming.
	1:28pm Rich in Washington: Mr. Funky!
	1:30pm johnk77: listening to this great show while wearing Carhartts also, the Eataly in Manhattan is good, but expensive just realized it is a chain
	1:30pm still b/p: Exactly, Dean. The same approach somewhere as a one-off festival might be more appealing, or no more appealing but at least understandable as a simultaneously warped and genericized creation in a Disney attraction, but as a permanent thing...it's weird, goofy, spiritless, unfortunate bourgeois or wannabe bourgeois foodie-ism. That's a one-visit judgment. Hah!
	1:30pm Rich in Washington: Rufus' scene in Wattstax. Must be seen!
	1:31pm The Oscar: Afternoon all! I always forget until I hear it how legitimately good that Senor Coconut album is.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: We have a bottle of Limoncello that was bought for some dessert. There must be cocktails that make good use of it.
	1:31pm Rich in Washington: I hear Andy Partridge is recording stuff again.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: John! Carharts?! Oscar!
	1:35pm βrian: Is it de rigueur to wear Carhartts when shopping at Eataly?
	1:36pm Rich in Washington: This sounds like my high school art instructor Mr. Lowry. He'd leave the classroom briefly and return reeking of scotch and whistling cheerfully, loudly.
	1:38pm frenchee: I feel like this is gonna make me cry. Is this gonna make me cry, Uncle Michael? oh no~ Here come the bright lights!
	1:38pm still b/p: A whole gang -- 30 or 40 men and women -- in Carhartt coveralls swaggering into Eataly....now you're talkin'.
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: frenchee...
	1:39pm frenchee: @still b/p: they also make Carhart togs for dogs....just sayin'
	1:39pm Dean: My high school chemistry and physics teacher never smelled of alcohol, but he did spend considerable time demonstrating how he hoped to construct a nuclear fallout shelter out of six-packs of beer. By the time he drank his way out, radioactivity would have declined to a safer level.
	1:41pm still b/p: @frenchee...magnifico/magnifique!
	1:44pm Alex in Illinois: My albums had the same life cycle. I also checked out records from the library and made cassettes for my car.
	1:44pm Roberto: You may get funky, Unky.
	1:44pm coelacanth∅: Rich (in W) our mr. lowry was mr. miller, wood shop teacher. he was a bit too physical with the little girls
	1:45pm still b/p: If there's another request show, would you go for a triple...? So we can check the prominent alignment? - Melancholy Serenade - Nuages - If He Walked Into My Life
	1:46pm geezerette: There's Citarella for the one percent, Zabar's for the formerly middle class, and Eataly for what, tourists? Is Eataly the Old Navy of "Italian" food? Sabarro's used to fill that niche. The one in ,(shudder), Times Square was great for people watching.
	1:46pm coelacanth∅: i made a tape of any album that i knew i'd be listening to more than rarely. i still have them all, the tdks still sounding good.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Alex! SBP, how about I just steal that idea?
	1:46pm βrian: Mr. Miller, always alluding to the virtues of good wood, no doubt.
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: Our drama teacher was way too fond of the female student body. His then wife was a former student. He was also rather young, but his dalliances with students was considered less taboo back then that it would be today.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: I never had a straight drama teacher.
	1:48pm Rich in Washington: @coelacanth∅: I still have lots of tapes I made in the interest of portability. They still sound pretty good. It's amusing that there's this meme with the youngsters today that cassettes sounded terrible.
	1:48pm βrian: It was referred to as "mentoring" back in the day.
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: βrian he may have been! i didn't catch it
	1:49pm Dean: One of the drama teachers, the beloved Earl the Pearl, was an absolute hoot. I don't think he ever crossed the line, though he would on occasion seem too familiar with the young ladies. I'll never forget paging through the National Lampoon high school annual parody with him one summer during a break from production. Hearty laughter, tears. He, too, was an adolescent.
	1:49pm Rich in Washington: It's funny, actually, UM.. Our Drama teacher came off as somewhat effeminate. A lot of us thought when he'd sidle up to one of us boys and say something risque about a female student to us, we thought he was fronting. Nope. He was a hosebeast.
	1:50pm Dean: Some breaks we'd put the Woodstock soundtrack on the crappy turntable. Hendrix, Alvin Lee...
	1:52pm johnk77: the Eataly on 23rd St. featured a mostly posh clientele dressed in a up-scale fashion I was the only 1 with Carhartts:>
	1:52pm coelacanth∅: Rich, maybe it's really true - that meme that youngsters today are thoroughly braindead!
	1:53pm coelacanth∅: (now i have to go look up "meme")
	1:53pm The Oscar: Don't recall many overtly pervy teachers, but many in retrospect were huge potheads and weirdos. We had a Spanish teacher who once showed us a video he and his friends made recreating the "Sabotage" video in Mexico City. I spent a semester helping him with sorting papers, and he repayed me with a Dead Milkmen cassette from the floor of his car.
	1:54pm Dean: Boy, is the playlist grammar challenged today. First we get "I Don't Think Much About Her No More," and just now a flip-side that should read, "I Know To Whom You Have Been Socking It." Really kills the vibe.
	1:56pm coelacanth∅: i had trouble enjoying that song too. atrocious grammar!
	1:56pm The Oscar: @Dean The Wu Tang Clan is Not Something with Which to Fuck.
	1:57pm still b/p: Heyyy, I like this Showdown.
	1:57pm johnk77: I am so vintage I saw King Curtis live Also Con Funk Shun was very pro and easy to work with the 1 time I mixed sound for them in mid to late 70s well-done funky set selecter @UM
	1:57pm Dean: I like the flow, @The Oscar, homey.
	1:57pm geezerette: Bad grammar don't bother me.
	1:58pm northguineahills: The Oscar drills a welcome earworm into me noggin.
	1:58pm coelacanth∅: actually i got the impression that mickey newbury really WAS thinking about her; so, his statement was true.
	1:58pm Dean: Dropped a comma there, @geezerette, between "grammar" and "don't."
	1:59pm βrian: Well, it's about lunch time. Let's eat geezerette!
	1:59pm coelacanth∅: i'll ask mr. miller what he's having.
	2:00pm geezerette: !!!
	2:01pm geezerette: Dean, intentional. :D
	2:03pm gloomsday: hi everyone! sorry i'm jumping in so late :'(
	2:04pm geezerette: I am inedible. OOH, LOVE "A Certain Girl". Almost any version.
	2:04pm still b/p: Summer I turned 15, a friend and I went out of town for the summer with a 27 year old teacher to work someplace (27 seems young, but at our age, his adult age could've been much further along -- he didn't seem "young" ) He bought us porn, let us try a cocktail, spoke and joked with us as if WE were older. It was the early 70s, which seems like a more fitting framing and explanation than him being creepy or too strangely inclined to corrupting us yoots.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: gloomsday!
	2:05pm coelacanth∅: hi gloomsday geez, you mean like a coelacanth? that can't be.
	2:05pm βrian: My sharpie markers were marked as inedible. I sure proved them wrong!
	2:06pm doctorjazz: Nice version of "A Certain Girl" (partial to the Zevon version)
	2:06pm The Oscar: I really hope he does the spoken bit in the bridge.
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: but then, maybe it's time to turn our attention to puppydogs or oriental rugs or impressionist paintings; or, music
	2:07pm The Oscar: Whoa, I was joking!
	🛒 2:07pm Brian in UK: The Beatles recorded Leave My Kitten Alone. It was a popular cover at the time Little Willie John had it tied down.
	2:08pm geezerette: haha, eek! Coel, your species is inedible? Has anyone ever tried? Aren't you rather rare? BTW, that painting was by L.A. artist Tim Ebner.
	2:09pm coelacanth∅: and we know the beatles never used metaphors or sang anything toung-in-cheek
	2:10pm coelacanth∅: ("tongue")
	2:11pm Asheville Jon: yay for LOVE
	🛒 2:11pm Brian in UK: Oh Arthur, still sounds good fifty years later.
	2:11pm Wendy del Formaggio: Arthur Lyman to Arthur Lee! Nice segue, Uncle Michael.
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: g, yes apparently pretty awful. in fact there's nothing that makes me valuable.
	2:12pm Asheville Jon: the Forever Changes live concerts are so darn good
	2:12pm geezerette: 4.bp.blogspot.com... More Tim Ebner fish. :)
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: that's not the name of this!
	🛒 2:12pm Brian in UK: And fifty years earlier was 1917. Have we moved on?
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Wendy!
	2:13pm still b/p: I enjoyed the Havah Nagila but as a real celebratory get up and move piece it was a little "meh-zel tov."
	2:13pm coelacanth∅: ha - yes it is!
	2:14pm Dean: I felt the same about the King Pin Meh during the second set.
	2:14pm coelacanth∅: (my playlist has the last 5 words cut off)
	2:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: Uncle Michael! <3
	2:15pm βrian: Our governor once toasted a group of diners by raising his glass and saying "Molotov!"
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: g, nice fish!
	🛒 2:15pm Brian in UK: Hello Wendy. The Vacherin this Christmas did not quite hit the spot for some reason, Still good though.
	2:16pm geezerette: Brian, how rude of him!
	2:18pm βrian: Go for the Banon next time, @BUK.
	2:18pm Dean: Strictly speaking, a motion to continue wraps up the current meeting until some later time specified in the motion.
	2:20pm βrian: You'd need a riding crop to speak that strictly.
	2:20pm still b/p: Jeezuz, yah...proto-ELP .
	2:21pm Dean: Who doesn't have a riding crop?
	2:22pm βrian: (I think some thought he was about to throw the glass.)
	2:23pm geezerette: Can one ever actually be lonely in the Navy?
	2:24pm βrian: As lonely as a sardine.
	2:24pm still b/p: I'll run and get my riding crop in the stable and grab my copy of Robert's Rules of Ordure while I'm there. (Someone actually wrote one.)
	2:24pm Dean: Lots of sailors are loners who spend their time contemplating their navels.
	2:25pm geezerette: hahaha! :)
	2:25pm βrian: Naval navels. Aye.
	2:25pm still b/p: Lonely and semaphore-lorn.
	2:25pm Roberto: I Love this Bread.
	2:27pm βrian: — Thanks for flagging me down. — Hey, what's a semaphore, anyway?
	2:27pm Dean: I used to jeer at Bread concerts just to get a rise out of them.
	2:28pm Stevel: Gilbert O'Sullivan from 1978? Whoda thunk it?
	2:28pm geezerette: haha, Dean, you're on a roll!
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: The didn't knead that kind of trouble, Dean.
	2:28pm βrian: Bread is the root cause of the opioid epidemic. In France, in any case.
	2:28pm Dean: David Gates often appeared on stage high as a kite, completely toasted.
	2:29pm geezerette: You guys! :D
	2:30pm Dean: So you're saying, @βrian, it's a pandemic?
	2:30pm still b/p: ...Rode the crust of the wave until they were over the heel.
	2:30pm βrian: Yeah, colon-upper-case D!
	2:31pm βrian: Sorry about the pain, folks. But what's an oven four, anyway?
	2:32pm Artie: Some sort of yeast infection, I'd imagine.
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: Puns are the yeast of our worries.
	2:33pm geezerette: UM, you're the BEST bad influence.
	2:33pm βrian: I worry our leavened hour has come.
	2:34pm still b/p: These puns have a rye quality...kinda the loaf of the party.
	2:34pm Dean: Had this conversation at a restaurant I once frequented: Server: May I take your order? Me: I'll have a ham and Swiss on white, grilled. Server: Would you like cheese on that? Me: Swiss. Server: What kind of bread? Me: White. Server: Grilled or toasted? Me: Grilled.
	2:35pm geezerette: Sounds like an out take from "Five Easy Pizzas".
	2:35pm βrian: You have to expect them to grill you.
	2:36pm Dean: Speaking of sailors...or was that The Last Detail?
	2:37pm still b/p: Jack Pumpernickelson was great in both of those.
	2:37pm geezerette: I love chips.
	2:38pm Dean: I saw him here in Berkeley with (the person) Brinsley Schwarz. I was as excited to meet Mr. Schwarz as Mr. Parker.
	2:38pm geezerette: "Pumpernickelson"!!! :)
	2:39pm Dean: A wry pun.
	2:39pm βrian: Focaccia on the Family disapproves of this playlist.
	2:41pm Dean: Missed a lot of school to get to this show.
	2:41pm coelacanth∅: Pig Pen!
	2:42pm frenchee: Right on, Ron (Pigpen) thanks UM
	2:42pm coelacanth∅: (the soul of the 'dead.)
	🛒 2:42pm KevinfromBayRidge: Ah..PigPen, we miss ya!
	2:42pm βrian: An ode to fireflies, this.
	2:43pm Sem: The Dead live.
	2:43pm Asheville Jon: thanks for playin' the good ole' Gratefule Dead UM! and thanks for not playing brent era crap!
	2:44pm geezerette: So good! Fun again & always, UM and accomplices! Happy weekend, all!
	2:44pm Sem: Bye, G.!
	2:44pm geezerette: Sem, good one!
	2:45pm frenchee: Seems appropriate that I'm assigning books about opioid addiction and cannabis while I listen to this GD jam.
	2:45pm βrian: I knew a real deadhead. We'd offer him treats if he danced for us.
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: take care,g. watch out for punctuation errors.
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Let it Shine, Shine, Shine!!!!
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Ahhhh.....
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: Fuckin' Phil...man....
	2:47pm βrian: A simple how-to manual usually suffices for opioid addiction, in my view.
	2:48pm Sem: Ah, just point and shoot.
	2:48pm doctorjazz: UM, was thinking the same thing about Phil... Dead Doc, really sad.
	2:48pm coelacanth∅: i have friends with experience in opiate addiction, if i need advice on how to start.
	2:49pm Rich in NC: Thanks for a fun show Uncle Michael
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: Rich! Thanks for listening.
	2:50pm frenchee: hee, I hear ye, coel. and others. I might as well.
	2:50pm βrian: Were we talking about bread or poppies? I forget.
	2:50pm Sem: Just cinched my beaded headband another hole tighter.
	2:51pm doctorjazz: Who's on slide? (Thanks UM, great show!)
	2:51pm Sem: The Doc said it^. See ya next time, UM.
	2:53pm βrian: @Sem: Be careful of aural leakage.
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hanging out today friends!
	2:56pm Roberto: OMG hamster!
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: poor hamster never had a chance. just some basic safety education and a practical self-defense course should do it.
	2:56pm Dean: Trigger warning, for chrissakes!
	2:57pm Rich in Washington: That was odd!
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: hey that didn't sound like a hamster! 'sounded like a chipmunk to me.
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: Dale warning!
	2:57pm Dean: Trigger warning, for chrissakes!
	2:57pm Mark Hurst: Great show, U.M.! Thanks!
	2:57pm burke: Happy trails and weekend!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for the fun show, Uncle Michael! I will have to try a shandy now!

	2:58pm listener james from westwood: Thanks a ton, UM!
	2:58pm gloomsday: thank you UM! will have to catch the archive later for the lion's share of your show today, but i loved the last hour <3! have a great weekend, everyone.
	2:59pm Dean: When we achieve Singularity, I will have heard it coming.
	2:59pm still b/p: Hinky heights reached. Thanks UM!
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks UM Brilliant as always! take care people, and others
