Listener comments!
	9:27am annie: i'm early enough to get a good seat! i hope you have the Nat-Geo collection from the 70s, it's a keeper. good morning!
	12:07pm Sem: Hello, Ms. M., annie. Once you've had a good long look at Scotland, you might consider New Scotland, Nova Scotia, specifically, Cape Breton. The physical similarities of the terrain are amazing. But not magic, when Europe split off of North America (Pangea), part of Nova Scotia ended up in what is now Scotland. For true.
	12:08pm JuStUrMoM: You’re making me think of starting to pack...
	12:08pm elwyn: hello everyone!
	12:11pm Meghan: Hey there everyone! I've actually started packing already. The temperature is 20 degrees cooler than here right now, so it's not all the same clothes!
	12:12pm Dave B: Scotland - where the men are men and the sheep run scared!
	12:12pm elwyn: i am going to riot if we don't get The Proclaimers.
	12:13pm Meghan: Elwyn, there is 2 weeks of this.... so it might be next week!
	12:14pm Parq: Never been to Scotland, but I agree that the Cape Breton section of Nova Scotia (the east end of the island) is well worth seeing. We stayed in a cabin on a hillside with a commanding view of the valley on the north side of the peninsula. Magic.
	12:14pm Dave B: I sent you that Martyn Bennett this AM. Don't forget APB!
	12:14pm Dave B: I just booked November vacation. 1 week in Tokyo and then a week in Hong Kong
	12:18pm Meghan: Nice Dave! I got the Martyn Bennett... put down APB in the post on Facebook so I don't forget!
	12:19pm Dave B: I'll send you the APB I have...
	12:19pm elwyn: so I only get to riot in at least one week. Spiderman comes out on PS4 tomorrow. I want to see how well Evil Brady's apartment block is represented in it.
	12:22pm Dave B: THIS BASS LINE RULEZ
	12:23pm Dave B: Elwyn - did they film in my neighborhood? I can't recall.
	12:28pm Parq: In the 60s? Take along you tie-dye and be sure to wear some flowers in your hair.
	12:28pm elwyn: not sure how the game developers created Manhatten. your place is close to a landmark or two so it should be covered.
	12:46pm elwyn: will you eat haggis?
	12:48pm KP: They like a wee drink in Scotland
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Hi underwater dwellers!
	12:49pm Meghan: I will definitely partake in having a wee dram here and there.... And if haggis is offered, I'll totally try it. Why not?
	12:55pm Dave B: Who's drinking wee? That's DISGUSTING!
	12:55pm Meghan: hahahahahaha
	12:56pm Sem: It figures the allegedly tight-fisted Scots could come up w/ a measure like a wee dram. One eighth of an (imperial) ounce. Scottish humour runs to things like inventing haggis and calling it food, and golf, a game played with implements ill-suited to the purpose.
	12:57pm Dave B: And the caber toss....
	12:57pm Meghan: If there was mini golf at St. Andrews.... I'll be all over that!
	12:58pm Parq: You should watch the Bugs Bunny 'toon "My Bunny Lies Over the Ocean". It will prepare you for Scotland and Scots. Well no, it won't actually, but you'll have fun.
	12:59pm Meghan: hahaha, true, it will be fun nonetheless!
	12:59pm Sem: @Dave B.: DIY hernia making.
	1:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: 20 degrees cooler sounds nice. It's so hot up here today that they sent the school kids home early.
	1:08pm Meghan: Kids here had a half day as well. My schools growing up never had AC.
	1:09pm julie: Randall and I are listening!
	1:14pm northguineahills: When have we ever been ruly?
	1:15pm northguineahills: tartans....
	1:15pm elwyn: i need to go to bed. too sleepy to riot. goodnight everyone.
	1:16pm The Oscar: My cousin once pulled me aside (at a funeral!) to tell me about the theory that the Loch Ness Monster was actually a demon conjured by Aleister Crowley, but he was called upon to the British Psi-Ops program before he could send it back. I WANT TO BELIEVE.
	1:16pm northguineahills: Outlander shows a good portrait of that rebellion. (tv series).
	1:17pm northguineahills: Glencoe, where my ancestors came from.....
	1:18pm Sem: G'night, elwyn!
	1:20pm Meghan: NGH- the tour I'm on is based on that book series Night Elwyn- no riots tonight!
	1:20pm Parq: Oscar, I'll have what your cousin was having.
	1:21pm Meghan: I'm going to find that monster!
	1:23pm Dave B: The Fratellis are on the shortlist?
	1:24pm Meghan: They are! Song preference?
	1:25pm northguineahills: One of my ancestors, the Duke of Argyle, supported the rebellion, and was rendered landless afterwards. His son then went to now Canada, and his grandson the went to Michigan during the Civil War.
	1:26pm Dave B: Anything!
	1:27pm northguineahills: Other ancestors were mostly scattered and became merchants in England and Edinburgh.
	1:29pm Parq: Has anyone been to both the Scottish highlands and western Ireland? I'm curious as to how they compare.
	1:30pm coelacanth∅: greetings Meghan and snorkelers
	1:31pm northguineahills: The Vaselines make me smile....!!!
	1:31pm The Oscar: Vaselines! I was so surprised when I heard the original version of this song to realize that there were actual verses and lyrics.
	1:40pm northguineahills: Never heard this Bis!
	1:43pm northguineahills: not to be confused w/ the Christian punk band, Hoi Polloi...(don't ask why I know about them).
	1:45pm Parq: Bis came to my attention when my kid was young, since they did the cheerfully noisy closing theme for the Powerpuff Girls show.
	1:47pm Dave B: Would you lie to us?
	1:48pm Stanley: Scots Wha Hae. Back from holidays in Portugal and checking in. For the record, Sem, whisky is served by the quarter gill (35ml), up here, otherwise known as a 'nip'. A 'dram' just means a small glass of that wondrous fluid.
	1:50pm Meghan: I have a friend who also just got back from Portugal! It's the happening spot
	1:52pm Sigurður: Ochh Ay me Bonnie Meg, did you have a glance at documentaries?
	1:53pm Meghan: I did! The first one didn't work.... but I watched the second one!
	1:54pm Sigurður: Good on ya! Sooo any good?
	1:54pm Meghan: Oh I am beyond prepared!
	1:55pm Dave B: Didn't Madonna buy some property in Lisbon last year?
	1:57pm Stanley: Lisbon, for sure, is kicking. Being built on hills, all over are 'miradouros', viewpoints over the city and cool places to hang out in the evenings.
	1:57pm KP: Scottish bands I’ve seen: Proclaimers, Big Country, Bay City Rollers, the Alarm
	1:57pm Sigurður: Lol.... Just remember to order a dram of chicken! It is always some sort of delight in memory having ordered a chicken and receive a brownish liquid...
	1:59pm Meghan: Yeah, they said that Lisbon and Porto were definitely hilly!
	2:00pm Stanley: ....Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Texas, this lot (Belle & Sebastian), Mogwai, Nazareth......
	2:00pm Sem: Obrigado, Stanley! Hello, on-shore Sigurður!
	2:00pm Stanley: Hola Sem
	2:01pm Meghan: hmmmmm, I've seen Belle & Sebastian, Cocteau Twins, Jesus & Mary Chain, Mogwai.....
	2:02pm KP: Camera Obscura, too!
	2:03pm Sem: Stealers Wheel.
	2:04pm coelacanth∅: i saw the cocteau twins at the first (& i guess one of the only?) guinness flead in the 90s. they played mostly irish jigs and such.
	2:05pm Sigurður: Ay sem á big hello 2 ya
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: i didn't know they were scottish. (i've seen the alarm too, who i also didn't know was scottish)
	2:08pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Meghan
