Listener comments!
	10:49am solo mon: The fruit that rules us all - the fruit supreme!
	10:56am Otis Fodder: Hi Solo. Going to find some ELO right now to play top of the show since I see you here. Jan will like some ELO too!
	10:57am Otis Fodder: Listener Sonderangbot ordered the Fruit Supreme on this week's show.
	10:58am StringOFperils: I don't think the Fruit Supreme takes orders....from anybody.
	11:00am zmzm: oh it's 11 already!
	11:01am Sonderangebot: Good morning Otis, Solo, SoP, all the others... I'm serving you PINK CHAMPAGNE to start the day.
	11:04am Otis: Morning everyone. Hot sunny day here in Montreal, sun beaming through the windows on the vinyl, fan full blast. Drinking Spruce Soda and water.
	11:04am Sonderangebot: I'm disappointed this is not aspic or gelatin!
	11:05am Otis: There was some hot pea corn soup, but saving that for cooler weather. Feeling nice.
	👻 11:06am Kat in Chicago: Hot here too. I could go for some lemon sherbet.
	11:08am StringOFperils: Relentless heat in Toronto also...guess we're all under the same thermal jello mold. Summer lawns turning golden brown.
	11:08am Sonderangebot: Some lemon sherbet with dates for Kat!
	👻 11:09am Kat in Chicago: Thank you Sonderangebot (you can hold the dates, I think)
	11:09am Carmichael: Heya Otis and ear users.
	11:09am StringOFperils: Can't spell jello without E L O.
	11:10am Otis: Disco VERY

	👻 11:16am Kat in Chicago: Boogie Very!
	11:17am Otis: Boogie Boogie
	11:19am Sonderangebot: I think Otis will get a delivery today! Watch out!
	11:19am solo mon: Sorry I had to run out to the store as I realized I was fresh out of pink champagne!
	11:21am solo mon: Fruit supreme is dictator chic?
	11:22am solo mon: I love disco very. Prob my fav ELO album.
	11:23am Sonderangebot: I've heard that the Fruit Supreme Leader of the Tropical Republica has a wife who collects a lot of shoes and loves to take pink champagne baths.
	11:26am solo mon: It’s 57 and cloudy in Portland Oregon I will send some of that your way. I love julyvember in Portland Oregon
	11:27am solo mon: I can leave my fruit supreme out on the table and it won’t melt.
	11:27am Linda Lee: oh Johnny!! hi!
	11:27am Sem: Hello, Otis, the friendly, and the persuaded. Settling in for the show.
	11:27am Otis: Julyvember, my new fav month! Hi Sem and LL!
	11:28am solo mon: Linda Lee! how’s your turtle?
	11:29am Linda Lee: oh Otie!!! you you you you!!
	11:29am Linda Lee: hi solo mon! my turtle still does her work, i feel. we're movin' along this road to the end!
	11:30am Linda Lee: she sure brought good tidings! the Yi Jing confirms, too!
	11:31am solo mon: Hey sem! Getting suaded
	11:31am Linda Lee: i'm finding people who aren't used to being bummed out right now would love to bum me out. to hell with that.
	11:31am Sem: Yesss, mon. Sueded to the nth.
	11:32am Sonderangebot: Hi Carm, Sem, Linda, and Linda's turtle! Someone's gotta persuade me to get back to work.
	11:33am Linda Lee: it won't be me, Sonderangebot! :-) time is short. do what you want.
	11:33am solo mon: I feel the collective shame is hanging low like a fog around us, people aren’t dealing well. The bummer fires are burning. Fuck em, is the only good defense.
	11:33am Linda Lee: apparently some of us are new to existential anst. :-D
	11:34am Linda Lee: or angst!
	11:35am Linda Lee: nothing positive comes from guilt, as any recovered Catholic will tell you. it's self defeating ~ especially when unity of purpose is so important!
	11:35am solo mon: Ha! Linda Lee I hear ya. I came straight outta the womb w that existential angst. Tailored for these times.
	11:36am Linda Lee: we know psychic survival. the new-tto-angst call survival mechanisms 'distractions' ~ but survival isn't a distraction. it's the whole job!
	11:36am Sem: Never invite existentialist ants to a picnic. Reminder from a friend.
	11:36am solo mon: Shame and guilt inexplicably makes most people double down on their stupidity. I was raised non religious, and am so grateful for that.
	11:37am Linda Lee: yes, be thankful. you're ahead of the game.
	11:38am Linda Lee: faith is one thing. strength of spirit. religion? feh.
	11:38am StringOFperils: Amen, Linda Lee.
	11:38am solo mon: The best thing I heard recently is about resilience. People who are resilient have more time to be happy, because they take on less psychic bullshit from others.
	11:38am Cp304: Good afternoon peoples.. hugs, smooches, daps, all that
	11:39am Linda Lee: that's right. thank you StringOFperils!
	11:39am Linda Lee: hello Cp304!
	11:40am solo mon: Hey Cp304
	11:41am solo mon: Sonderangebot you better not be doin any work over there!!!!
	11:42am Linda Lee: there's nothing like italian spaghetti western music. frankly, my mother's people are the most brilliant soundtrack composers on this green earth, in my very humble italian opinion.
	11:43am solo mon: LL agreed. Umiliani, Piccioni, the maestro all incredible.
	11:44am solo mon: Any Italian soundtrack music will do. Western, Giallo, Romance comedy allllll good
	11:45am StringOFperils: Yeah, don't think my Cornish or Glaswegan ancestors penned any spaghetti western soundtracks whatsoever.
	11:45am Linda Lee: absolutely! i've learned so much about soundtrack music this year. a fantastic new world.. that i've always loved being part of, without knowing it.
	11:45am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Greetings, Otis and WFMU kin!
	11:46am Linda Lee: if anything makes me proud of my beautiful ancestry, ..
	11:47am Sonderangebot: Good morning Granny, pink champagne for you.
	11:47am solo mon: G SPICE Y
	11:47am Linda Lee: thank you so much Otis. people die. that's what happens. somehow the fact has been hidden well & it comes as a shock now that it's exposed, but..
	11:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Sonderangebot: ooooh! it tickles!
	11:48am Sem: Has there been a haggis western, SoP? Soundtrack w/ the pipes, the fife, the drums?
	11:48am Linda Lee: i'm pretty sure 'disco' is just 'disc' or 'record' in those cases when there's no disco..
	11:48am solo mon: Ah there she is, sonder welcome back to distraction central.
	11:48am Linda Lee: hi Granny!! :-)
	11:49am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Captain Linda Lee! Reporting for duty.
	11:49am solo mon: Haggis western ha
	11:49am Otis: Hi Granny, my reading friend. Or as Electric Company would sing, "Easy Reader... that's my name".
	11:50am Cp304: This is more an after the disco Song
	11:50am StringOFperils: The Brae Wee Laddie wi tha Bonnie Flintlock
	11:50am StringOFperils: Naw. Doesn't work.
	11:52am solo mon: Disco-nap
	11:56am Linda Lee: ahoy to my Lesspeeeyun First Mate!! :-)
	11:56am StringOFperils: I love this album....and it's the last thing I'd ever expect to turn up on the Sheena's stream. So much for preconceptions.
	11:56am chresti: Hi Otis and supreme beings!
	11:56am solo mon: This is a good week for 4ad related so gs

	11:58am solo mon: Chresti hi

	11:58am ARB: Hello everybody!
	11:59am StringOFperils: @Linda: YES
	11:59am Linda Lee: you really should, GG. it was marvelous. so much good stuff unlike the Peanuts work. hi ARB!

	12:00pm solo mon: Re gene clark- Been listening to strength of strings a lot lately :-) the new version is GOOD
	12:00pm StringOFperils: Yep. Utopia is here. No doubt .

	12:01pm Otis: Yes Solo... recently picked up the 2-CD Gene No Other 4AD reissue with bonus tracks. A top album for me.
	12:01pm Sem: Hiya, ARB! Chresti!! Carmichael!!!
	12:01pm Linda Lee: glad you're well. i'm doing beautifully. just took a walk into the woods here & looked at unusual plants & flowers. reality check!! always happy.
	12:02pm chresti: Hiya Sem!
	12:02pm StringOFperils: @solo: I love the Wizard album...used to blast this SO loud. Lot's of great electronics on it.
	12:03pm ARB: This song is always so comforting
	12:03pm Linda Lee: talk about the teenage years! the world's greatest Brian!
	👻 12:03pm Kat in Chicago: Volume went up for the last track and is staying there for this one!
	12:03pm StringOFperils: @Otis: No Other is fantastic. (IMO of course...not for everybody I'm sure)
	12:03pm Linda Lee: this is just a phenomenal album.
	12:03pm Otis: Hey ya ARB!
	12:03pm solo mon: Yes I love it too! Such wild decisions being made in that record. Also he is responsible for producing my fav bands first album sparks***
	12:04pm Otis: Why not Roxy Music next, huh! Cueing up Country Life!
	12:04pm solo mon: Omg you are killing me otis
	12:04pm StringOFperils: Ron and Russell. Pretty special stuff.
	👻 12:04pm Kat in Chicago: Perfect, Otis
	12:04pm Linda Lee: Roxy is natural!
	12:04pm ARB: Hi Otis! I'm always a little late to the party here in pst but made it earlier than usual today
	12:04pm Sonderangebot: Bryan Ferry my man
	12:05pm chresti: Hi ARB!
	12:07pm solo mon: We saw bryan a year ago in concert and he was fantastic!
	12:08pm solo mon: Ahh concerts, ‘member?? Sigh.
	12:08pm solo mon: Hi ARB
	12:08pm zmzm: quintessential
	12:08pm StringOFperils: I wanted to see Bryan Ferry last year, but the tickets were phenomenally expensive. Out of my league.
	12:09pm Otis: Bryan IS fantastic!
	12:09pm Linda Lee: phenomenally expensive is not rock & roll. shame on them!
	12:10pm zmzm: persia pleaz
	12:11pm solo mon: I was actually surprised how great he was. And yes the tickets were crazy expensive (I didn’t pay for them I can’t afford either) and the audience sat the whole time. Lol. Like opera.
	12:11pm StringOFperils: Seems to be the way things have gone. Concert prices. Just one more thing that cost more and more, while my income continued to flatline year after year. At least there's WFMU.
	12:11pm Linda Lee: live is the way to hear music & nourish the heart, just as we need to do.
	12:12pm Linda Lee: we'll just have to play for one another then..
	12:13pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Saw Bryan a few years ago and he was fantastic - wish I'd gone to the recent tour.
	12:13pm Power Papi: i would like to see XTC and Kate Bush live.
	12:13pm Linda Lee: did you make 'cool' at 17, Otis? i'm still waiting, me.
	12:14pm ARB: I think I would have dug Monte Cazazza when I was 12 years old
	12:14pm chresti: I saw Bryan Ferry in the late 70s, when tickets were like $15.
	12:14pm zmzm: the shape of 80's never sag
	12:16pm Linda Lee: which 80s are we referring to? :-D
	12:16pm chresti: Roxy Music, too, that could be the one that was late 70s..
	12:17pm Linda Lee: it was last night for TMC on Georgy's show. she covered for Greg.
	12:17pm solo mon: She played song to the siren.
	12:17pm Linda Lee: italian is definitely Morricone-ey.
	12:18pm Power Papi: Morricone-ish?
	12:18pm Linda Lee: maybe! :-D
	12:19pm solo mon: Morricornish
	12:19pm Linda Lee: bananas & blow? haha!! not food, i guess.
	12:19pm Cp304: I’ve heard of hookers and blow.. but bananas ? Must be for potassium
	12:19pm ARB: Ween fan here! Dean and Gene
	12:20pm solo mon: See what I did there string of perils??
	12:20pm StringOFperils: Yep, nothin' gets by me. (Oh man, I wish stuff did get by me. :()
	12:21pm Linda Lee: i vote electronic.
	12:21pm Power Papi: I don't want to hear about your piles, Otis.
	👻 12:21pm Kat in Chicago: I have mixed feelings about Ween, but they are undeniably brilliant.
	12:21pm solo mon: Almost everything gets by me...
	12:22pm solo mon: Power Papi I think he took it as a challenge lol
	12:23pm solo mon: Example- I used to be a doorman at vip room, I just let everyone in!
	12:24pm StringOFperils: I think this is some kind of sideways tribute/deconstruction of Jimmy Buffett....who needs to be torpedoed.
	12:25pm Otis: Thanks Solo for bouncing the door today and letting all in to the party. Yes, total stab at Buffett.
	12:25pm solo mon: This does push the limits of taste/parody. Like J Buff might actually perform this.
	12:26pm StringOFperils: Hah, yup. Dean and Gene like to entertain and torture at the same time.
	👻 12:27pm Kat in Chicago: I actually like "Push th' Little Daisies" but I've made people literally run from the room when I've played it. Wow, I haven't heard a Dr. Demento intro in decades.
	12:27pm Cp304: I remember my bud dad back in the day telling me to rub Vaseline in my nostrils to keep the blow from making it raw
	12:27pm Power Papi: Otis is Dr. Demento's secret love child.
	12:27pm Linda Lee: really don't understand Buffet's appeal at all. more evidence of the triumph of mediocre in music. so depressing.
	12:28pm Linda Lee: not just before doing the blow, i hope!
	12:28pm solo mon: This is just silly
	12:28pm Cp304: Linda my 20 something bro in law loves him.. they actually will play covers of him at the club
	12:29pm Sonderangebot: Oh no... Tante Emma whistles.
	12:29pm Linda Lee: i hope they do something fun with that stuff.
	12:29pm Otis: The doctor most certainly warped my mind as a young kid.
	12:30pm solo mon: Tante Emma the greatest discovery since crazy curtain lady
	12:31pm solo mon: She is very talented at whistling! Surprisingly on key.
	12:31pm Cp304: That girl can whistle
	12:32pm Linda Lee: a compost truck! i don't believe they exist here in the US at all. in the country we just compost at home..
	👻 12:33pm Kat in Chicago: Chicago can't even get regular recycling right, forget compost. I like the compost bins in Montreal with the fishbone and apple core silhouettes!
	👻 12:33pm Kat in Chicago: If you want to compost in Chicago and don't have a yard to use the compost in, you have to pay someone to take it!
	12:34pm solo mon: Surprising nobody but we have compost pickup here in Portland. Every other week.
	👻 12:34pm Kat in Chicago: Good for Portland, I say.
	12:34pm Sonderangebot: I just throw my spoiled food out my window
	12:35pm Cp304: I helped a friend move once, was getting dark, I jumped in back of uhaul and rolled what I thought was a exercise ball out of back, but it was compost ball full of eggs, food trash etc.. I was covered.
	👻 12:36pm Kat in Chicago: Haha Sonderagebot, I'm sure your neighbors enjoy that. Cp304, as if helping friends move wasn't bad enough! No good deed, etc.
	12:36pm StringOFperils: The Flat Earth Society should issue spherical membership cards.
	👻 12:36pm Kat in Chicago: *Sonderangebot (typo)
	12:37pm Cp304: No doubt Kay, and lol @ sonderangebot
	12:37pm solo mon: I’m pretty sure their description says “like minded people from around the globe”
	12:37pm Sonderangebot: Hey those squirrels have to eat something! Hahah, just kiddin. But I actually saw a lady throw some bird food randomly on the street from her window... almost on us
	12:37pm joe: ‘Ello folks
	12:37pm Sonderangebot: lol @solo hey joe
	👻 12:38pm Kat in Chicago: My neighbor does put out peanuts for the squirrels sometimes.
	12:39pm chresti: SF collects compost, I think.
	12:40pm Cp304: This is funky
	12:44pm solo mon: This is a cover of margarita!!
	12:44pm Cp304: And this
	12:44pm solo mon: OMG I’m dead
	12:44pm joe: I toss most of my fruit peels and expired veggies under the flowering bushes on the side of the house and most of my stale bread or old cereals get tosssd on the lawn for what ever will eat them.
	12:46pm solo mon: I’m seriously mind blown over this one, margaritas Armenian interpretation
	12:46pm Cp304: Yeah this is nuts
	12:47pm Otis: Crazy good reissue from Numero from 80s Iran!
	12:48pm solo mon: Based on this song- youtu.be...
	12:49pm solo mon: Margherita by Massera early italo disco
	12:49pm Sonderangebot: omg great song solo
	12:50pm solo mon: Wow I gotta get that record Otis.
	12:50pm solo mon: I learn from YOU. We learn from US.
	12:52pm solo mon: Damn this is gooooood
	12:53pm solo mon: Peter Thomas but make it steel drum
	1:02pm Cp304: I member when Ice T sampled this one
	1:06pm Otis: What song was it Cp304... going to check it post-show
	1:08pm solo mon: Ahhhh rotary connection!!!!
	1:12pm Linda Lee: wow. fabulous sounds!! just right.
	1:13pm Cp304: Song was high rollers.. on the album power I think Otis
	1:17pm solo mon: I hate Christmas music.
	1:17pm Power Papi: I have the Brady Bunch Christmas Album
	1:18pm Power Papi: Yep, I still have a copy from when I was a kid.
	1:18pm Linda Lee: i've just sold mine off. :-)
	1:19pm Linda Lee: selling the cabin, so time to let go. so tired of dragging vinyl around with me ~ it's been 40 years! enough!
	1:20pm Linda Lee: ahaha!! not leaving the show yet. :-)
	1:20pm solo mon: I am sad that sampling can’t happen anymore. Linda I too sold almost all of my records last year. Lighter load, but I’m a little wistful some times abt it.
	1:22pm Linda Lee: i know the feeling. i've actually accumulated & released 5 whole collections & i've had my regrets. do i remember now what i regretted releasing from those collections? nope.
	1:22pm solo mon: That Armenian italo disco had me shook! I was stopped in my tracks.
	1:24pm BC Sterrett: Morning everyone
	1:25pm Linda Lee: why can't sampling happen? just monkey with the sounds you like a bit & make them yours.
	1:25pm Otis: Afternoon BC
	1:26pm Linda Lee: hello! :-)
	1:27pm Sonderangebot: Hello BC!
	1:27pm Otis: @LL - Sampling in mainstream music for the most part. Ha, I just sample everything as many do, under the radar and all.
	1:28pm Linda Lee: right! totally under the radar. who wants to go mainstream anyway? ;-)
	1:29pm BC Sterrett: One of the reasons I asked to have a show on Tuesdays is so that I'd be sure to tune into Friendly Persuasion :)
	1:31pm Otis: Ha, thanks BC... looking forward to your show today with exorcisms!
	1:32pm Linda Lee: love this Ramsey Lewis track ~ until those high-pitched Hitchcock strings kick in!
	1:34pm Linda Lee: thats a pretty darn racy record cover! 1958, too!
	1:36pm BC Sterrett: Oh man, I remember finding that moldy copy of Flowers of Evil while visiting you in Canada. I cleaned it up and still use it today :)
	1:38pm Otis: I remember that BC!
	1:39pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show, Otis! Been listening in the kitchen while cooking and eating. Now I'm ready to dig into that fruit supreme.
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: OMG! There's a NFB ALBUM?!
	1:40pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i loves me some Fruit Supreme
	1:41pm Linda Lee: i love me some supreme fruits.
	1:42pm Otis: Hey Hey Rich... Yes, NFB on vinyl!
	1:43pm Linda Lee: music not to trip by. ;-)
	1:44pm Sonderangebot: OK so now there's a competition here: the window cleaners listening to reggaeton/soca and Otis ' show, who's going to win?
	1:45pm Linda Lee: Otis always wins.
	1:49pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Supreme Fruits love me, too! <3
	1:49pm Linda Lee: they sure do! :-)
	1:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): "Jump-around genres" could describe my preferences
	1:51pm Linda Lee: i love hearing those kids, Otis. so nice.
	1:52pm Linda Lee: you mean the fruits .. ?
	1:52pm solo mon: I love Jane Weaver!
	1:53pm Otis: Me too. Rich too, I know RiW is a fan as well!
	1:53pm Linda Lee: this is so nice.
	1:53pm Cp304: Can’t remember who scooped me to this one.. Simon idol I think..
	👻 1:54pm Kat in Chicago: I was away from my desk and heard "Music for Heavenly Bodies" and said to myself, "I bet that has a bunch of half nekkid ladies on the cover." Well, I was close. One all the way nekkid lady!
	2:01pm Linda Lee: wow. lovely segue, Otis! superb. :-)
	2:08pm Linda Lee: i love this stuff.
	2:12pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): this set is really pleasing me!
	2:12pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i'm extra spaced out today so these instrumental tunes keep zoning me out!
	2:12pm solo mon: I 100 percent recommend the movie “in fabrics” that you played from the soundtrack. My favorite film from 2019!
	2:14pm Sonderangebot: Solo I saw In Fabric at some festival last year! Lots of stuff to love in it!
	2:16pm solo mon: I will admit it probably goes on too long but it is fabulous!
	2:16pm solo mon: They had me at mannequin cult.
	2:17pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): remember when everybody had mannequins in their homes?
	2:18pm Linda Lee: i did makeup at 2 different mannequin factories in the early 80s & you must know: i brought things home.
	2:18pm solo mon: Ha remember?! we have 3 male mannequins in our hallway upstairs right now all wearing crochet armor
	2:19pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i still have one that was covered in sequins by solo mon's and my mutal friend, Kate!
	2:19pm solo mon: Mannequin Too
	2:20pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Linda Lee: another fascinating chapter in your memoirs!
	2:20pm solo mon: In “In fabrics” you get to see a peek at mannequin pubic hair!
	👻 2:20pm Kat in Chicago: Doing makeup at a mannequin factory sounds like a dream job, at least in theory.
	2:20pm chresti: I once had a job painting faces at a mannequin factory.
	2:21pm solo mon: I too had a job refurbishing mannequins worked in window display for years lol
	2:21pm Linda Lee: it was a very nice job! well paid, as well! we just sat around chatting, listening to music & painting. a nice crowd.
	2:22pm Linda Lee: chresti, where were you? do i know you? :-D
	2:22pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: i am not surprised that you have a fleet of adorned mannequins, and i hope to get an introduction next time i visit
	👻 2:22pm Kat in Chicago: "Freedom of '76" might be my favorite Ween tune. I'm jealous of you mannequin maker-uppers!
	2:22pm solo mon: We all come from such similar backgrounds hahaha my job was patching broken mannequins w fiberglass and sanding them down. Yuck.
	2:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): somehow we all found each other here, in Sheena's Jungle Room
	2:23pm Linda Lee: that was the shitty part of production, for sure.
	👻 2:23pm Kat in Chicago: I don't even get to make up my own face these days because of freaking COVID. Masks take up a lot of facial real estate and it's not like I go out unless I have to, anyway. I've put on lipstick for zoom calls but that's about it.
	2:23pm solo mon: They are actually Greg’s mannequins, but I love them.
	2:24pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Kat in Chicago: that's why i'm looking forward to the next craze: space bubble helmets!
	2:24pm solo mon: One of them is really sexy, but he has no face.
	👻 2:25pm Kat in Chicago: Now that would be fun, Granny!
	2:25pm Linda Lee: doing mannequin make up is totally different than our own. it's oil paint .. or was. they may do it differently now.
	2:25pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: you practice polymannequinry? ;)
	👻 2:26pm Kat in Chicago: I figured it was oil paint.
	2:26pm Linda Lee: i worked with a man who did mannequin makeup in the 1950s & he still used that style in the 80s. it was so great.
	2:26pm solo mon: GST literal spit take!!!
	2:26pm chresti: I worked for Grenneker/Bauchet Intl., when they had a factory in Commerce.
	2:26pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): with space bubble helmets, hair and makeup, and maybe even other adornments may be played with!
	2:27pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon!!!! i hope you didn't bemoil your doily!
	2:27pm solo mon: NSFW means turn it up!

	2:29pm Linda Lee: aho! ok. i was in new york. i did know about Grenneker. we were your 'competition' at Pucci. i don't remember the second company name at all, but they were in Williamsburg, Brooklyn when it was still very low-key mellow there.

	2:44pm solo mon: The very Last time I went out before covid 19 Tina lockdown was karaoke and I did “I need a freak”
	2:45pm chresti: I got mine after answering an ad in the LA Times. I sent some slides of my paintings, the women that hired me traded an old vintage mannequin for one of my paintings

	10:49am solo mon: The fruit that rules us all - the fruit supreme!
	10:56am Otis Fodder: Hi Solo. Going to find some ELO right now to play top of the show since I see you here. Jan will like some ELO too!
	10:57am Otis Fodder: Listener Sonderangbot ordered the Fruit Supreme on this week's show.
	10:58am StringOFperils: I don't think the Fruit Supreme takes orders....from anybody.
	11:00am zmzm: oh it's 11 already!
	11:01am Sonderangebot: Good morning Otis, Solo, SoP, all the others... I'm serving you PINK CHAMPAGNE to start the day.
	11:04am Otis: Morning everyone. Hot sunny day here in Montreal, sun beaming through the windows on the vinyl, fan full blast. Drinking Spruce Soda and water.
	11:04am Sonderangebot: I'm disappointed this is not aspic or gelatin!
	11:05am Otis: There was some hot pea corn soup, but saving that for cooler weather. Feeling nice.
	👻 11:06am Kat in Chicago: Hot here too. I could go for some lemon sherbet.
	11:08am StringOFperils: Relentless heat in Toronto also...guess we're all under the same thermal jello mold. Summer lawns turning golden brown.
	11:08am Sonderangebot: Some lemon sherbet with dates for Kat!
	👻 11:09am Kat in Chicago: Thank you Sonderangebot (you can hold the dates, I think)
	11:09am Carmichael: Heya Otis and ear users.
	11:09am StringOFperils: Can't spell jello without E L O.
	11:10am Otis: Disco VERY
	👻 11:10am Kat in Chicago: Disco somewhat

	11:17am Otis: Boogie Boogie
	11:19am Sonderangebot: I think Otis will get a delivery today! Watch out!
	11:19am solo mon: Sorry I had to run out to the store as I realized I was fresh out of pink champagne!
	11:21am solo mon: Fruit supreme is dictator chic?
	11:22am solo mon: I love disco very. Prob my fav ELO album.
	11:23am Sonderangebot: I've heard that the Fruit Supreme Leader of the Tropical Republica has a wife who collects a lot of shoes and loves to take pink champagne baths.
	11:26am solo mon: It’s 57 and cloudy in Portland Oregon I will send some of that your way. I love julyvember in Portland Oregon
	11:27am solo mon: I can leave my fruit supreme out on the table and it won’t melt.
	11:27am Linda Lee: oh Johnny!! hi!
	11:27am Sem: Hello, Otis, the friendly, and the persuaded. Settling in for the show.
	11:27am Otis: Julyvember, my new fav month! Hi Sem and LL!
	11:28am solo mon: Linda Lee! how’s your turtle?
	11:29am Linda Lee: oh Otie!!! you you you you!!
	11:29am Linda Lee: hi solo mon! my turtle still does her work, i feel. we're movin' along this road to the end!
	11:30am Linda Lee: she sure brought good tidings! the Yi Jing confirms, too!
	11:31am solo mon: Hey sem! Getting suaded
	11:31am Linda Lee: i'm finding people who aren't used to being bummed out right now would love to bum me out. to hell with that.
	11:31am Sem: Yesss, mon. Sueded to the nth.
	11:32am Sonderangebot: Hi Carm, Sem, Linda, and Linda's turtle! Someone's gotta persuade me to get back to work.
	11:33am Linda Lee: it won't be me, Sonderangebot! :-) time is short. do what you want.
	11:33am solo mon: I feel the collective shame is hanging low like a fog around us, people aren’t dealing well. The bummer fires are burning. Fuck em, is the only good defense.
	11:33am Linda Lee: apparently some of us are new to existential anst. :-D
	11:34am Linda Lee: or angst!
	11:35am Linda Lee: nothing positive comes from guilt, as any recovered Catholic will tell you. it's self defeating ~ especially when unity of purpose is so important!
	11:35am solo mon: Ha! Linda Lee I hear ya. I came straight outta the womb w that existential angst. Tailored for these times.
	11:36am Linda Lee: we know psychic survival. the new-tto-angst call survival mechanisms 'distractions' ~ but survival isn't a distraction. it's the whole job!
	11:36am Sem: Never invite existentialist ants to a picnic. Reminder from a friend.
	11:36am solo mon: Shame and guilt inexplicably makes most people double down on their stupidity. I was raised non religious, and am so grateful for that.
	11:37am Linda Lee: yes, be thankful. you're ahead of the game.
	11:38am Linda Lee: faith is one thing. strength of spirit. religion? feh.
	11:38am StringOFperils: Amen, Linda Lee.
	11:38am solo mon: The best thing I heard recently is about resilience. People who are resilient have more time to be happy, because they take on less psychic bullshit from others.
	11:38am Cp304: Good afternoon peoples.. hugs, smooches, daps, all that
	11:39am Linda Lee: that's right. thank you StringOFperils!
	11:39am Linda Lee: hello Cp304!
	11:40am solo mon: Hey Cp304
	11:41am solo mon: Sonderangebot you better not be doin any work over there!!!!
	11:42am Linda Lee: there's nothing like italian spaghetti western music. frankly, my mother's people are the most brilliant soundtrack composers on this green earth, in my very humble italian opinion.
	11:43am solo mon: LL agreed. Umiliani, Piccioni, the maestro all incredible.
	11:44am solo mon: Any Italian soundtrack music will do. Western, Giallo, Romance comedy allllll good
	11:45am StringOFperils: Yeah, don't think my Cornish or Glaswegan ancestors penned any spaghetti western soundtracks whatsoever.
	11:45am Linda Lee: absolutely! i've learned so much about soundtrack music this year. a fantastic new world.. that i've always loved being part of, without knowing it.
	11:45am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Greetings, Otis and WFMU kin!
	11:46am Linda Lee: if anything makes me proud of my beautiful ancestry, ..
	11:47am Sonderangebot: Good morning Granny, pink champagne for you.
	11:47am solo mon: G SPICE Y
	11:47am Linda Lee: thank you so much Otis. people die. that's what happens. somehow the fact has been hidden well & it comes as a shock now that it's exposed, but..
	11:47am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Sonderangebot: ooooh! it tickles!
	11:48am Sem: Has there been a haggis western, SoP? Soundtrack w/ the pipes, the fife, the drums?
	11:48am Linda Lee: i'm pretty sure 'disco' is just 'disc' or 'record' in those cases when there's no disco..
	11:48am solo mon: Ah there she is, sonder welcome back to distraction central.
	11:48am Linda Lee: hi Granny!! :-)
	11:49am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Captain Linda Lee! Reporting for duty.

	12:08pm solo mon: Hi ARB
	12:08pm zmzm: quintessential
	12:08pm StringOFperils: I wanted to see Bryan Ferry last year, but the tickets were phenomenally expensive. Out of my league.
	12:09pm Otis: Bryan IS fantastic!
	12:09pm Linda Lee: phenomenally expensive is not rock & roll. shame on them!
	12:10pm zmzm: persia pleaz
	12:11pm solo mon: I was actually surprised how great he was. And yes the tickets were crazy expensive (I didn’t pay for them I can’t afford either) and the audience sat the whole time. Lol. Like opera.
	12:11pm StringOFperils: Seems to be the way things have gone. Concert prices. Just one more thing that cost more and more, while my income continued to flatline year after year. At least there's WFMU.
	12:11pm Linda Lee: live is the way to hear music & nourish the heart, just as we need to do.
	12:12pm Linda Lee: we'll just have to play for one another then..
	12:13pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Saw Bryan a few years ago and he was fantastic - wish I'd gone to the recent tour.

	12:14pm chresti: I saw Bryan Ferry in the late 70s, when tickets were like $15.
	12:14pm zmzm: the shape of 80's never sag
	12:16pm Linda Lee: which 80s are we referring to? :-D
	12:16pm chresti: Roxy Music, too, that could be the one that was late 70s..
	12:17pm Linda Lee: it was last night for TMC on Georgy's show. she covered for Greg.
	12:17pm solo mon: She played song to the siren.
	12:17pm Linda Lee: italian is definitely Morricone-ey.
	12:18pm Power Papi: Morricone-ish?
	12:18pm Linda Lee: maybe! :-D
	12:19pm solo mon: Morricornish
	12:19pm Linda Lee: bananas & blow? haha!! not food, i guess.
	12:19pm Cp304: I’ve heard of hookers and blow.. but bananas ? Must be for potassium
	12:19pm ARB: Ween fan here! Dean and Gene
	12:20pm solo mon: See what I did there string of perils??
	12:20pm StringOFperils: Yep, nothin' gets by me. (Oh man, I wish stuff did get by me. :()
	12:21pm Linda Lee: i vote electronic.
	12:21pm Power Papi: I don't want to hear about your piles, Otis.
	👻 12:21pm Kat in Chicago: I have mixed feelings about Ween, but they are undeniably brilliant.
	12:21pm solo mon: Almost everything gets by me...
	12:22pm solo mon: Power Papi I think he took it as a challenge lol
	12:23pm solo mon: Example- I used to be a doorman at vip room, I just let everyone in!
	12:24pm StringOFperils: I think this is some kind of sideways tribute/deconstruction of Jimmy Buffett....who needs to be torpedoed.
	12:25pm Otis: Thanks Solo for bouncing the door today and letting all in to the party. Yes, total stab at Buffett.
	12:25pm solo mon: This does push the limits of taste/parody. Like J Buff might actually perform this.
	12:26pm StringOFperils: Hah, yup. Dean and Gene like to entertain and torture at the same time.
	👻 12:27pm Kat in Chicago: I actually like "Push th' Little Daisies" but I've made people literally run from the room when I've played it. Wow, I haven't heard a Dr. Demento intro in decades.
	12:27pm Cp304: I remember my bud dad back in the day telling me to rub Vaseline in my nostrils to keep the blow from making it raw
	12:27pm Power Papi: Otis is Dr. Demento's secret love child.
	12:27pm Linda Lee: really don't understand Buffet's appeal at all. more evidence of the triumph of mediocre in music. so depressing.
	12:28pm Linda Lee: not just before doing the blow, i hope!
	12:28pm solo mon: This is just silly
	12:28pm Cp304: Linda my 20 something bro in law loves him.. they actually will play covers of him at the club
	12:29pm Sonderangebot: Oh no... Tante Emma whistles.
	12:29pm Linda Lee: i hope they do something fun with that stuff.
	12:29pm Otis: The doctor most certainly warped my mind as a young kid.
	12:30pm solo mon: Tante Emma the greatest discovery since crazy curtain lady
	12:31pm solo mon: She is very talented at whistling! Surprisingly on key.
	12:31pm Cp304: That girl can whistle
	12:32pm Linda Lee: a compost truck! i don't believe they exist here in the US at all. in the country we just compost at home..
	👻 12:33pm Kat in Chicago: Chicago can't even get regular recycling right, forget compost. I like the compost bins in Montreal with the fishbone and apple core silhouettes!
	👻 12:33pm Kat in Chicago: If you want to compost in Chicago and don't have a yard to use the compost in, you have to pay someone to take it!
	12:34pm solo mon: Surprising nobody but we have compost pickup here in Portland. Every other week.
	👻 12:34pm Kat in Chicago: Good for Portland, I say.
	12:34pm Sonderangebot: I just throw my spoiled food out my window
	12:35pm Cp304: I helped a friend move once, was getting dark, I jumped in back of uhaul and rolled what I thought was a exercise ball out of back, but it was compost ball full of eggs, food trash etc.. I was covered.
	👻 12:36pm Kat in Chicago: Haha Sonderagebot, I'm sure your neighbors enjoy that. Cp304, as if helping friends move wasn't bad enough! No good deed, etc.
	12:36pm StringOFperils: The Flat Earth Society should issue spherical membership cards.
	👻 12:36pm Kat in Chicago: *Sonderangebot (typo)
	12:37pm Cp304: No doubt Kay, and lol @ sonderangebot
	12:37pm solo mon: I’m pretty sure their description says “like minded people from around the globe”
	12:37pm Sonderangebot: Hey those squirrels have to eat something! Hahah, just kiddin. But I actually saw a lady throw some bird food randomly on the street from her window... almost on us
	12:37pm joe: ‘Ello folks
	12:37pm Sonderangebot: lol @solo hey joe
	👻 12:38pm Kat in Chicago: My neighbor does put out peanuts for the squirrels sometimes.
	12:39pm chresti: SF collects compost, I think.
	12:40pm Cp304: This is funky
	12:44pm solo mon: This is a cover of margarita!!
	12:44pm Cp304: And this
	12:44pm solo mon: OMG I’m dead
	12:44pm joe: I toss most of my fruit peels and expired veggies under the flowering bushes on the side of the house and most of my stale bread or old cereals get tosssd on the lawn for what ever will eat them.
	12:46pm solo mon: I’m seriously mind blown over this one, margaritas Armenian interpretation
	12:46pm Cp304: Yeah this is nuts
	12:47pm Otis: Crazy good reissue from Numero from 80s Iran!
	12:48pm solo mon: Based on this song- youtu.be...
	12:49pm solo mon: Margherita by Massera early italo disco
	12:49pm Sonderangebot: omg great song solo
	12:50pm solo mon: Wow I gotta get that record Otis.
	12:50pm solo mon: I learn from YOU. We learn from US.
	12:52pm solo mon: Damn this is gooooood
	12:53pm solo mon: Peter Thomas but make it steel drum
	1:02pm Cp304: I member when Ice T sampled this one
	1:06pm Otis: What song was it Cp304... going to check it post-show
	1:08pm solo mon: Ahhhh rotary connection!!!!
	1:12pm Linda Lee: wow. fabulous sounds!! just right.
	1:13pm Cp304: Song was high rollers.. on the album power I think Otis
	1:17pm solo mon: I hate Christmas music.
	1:17pm Power Papi: I have the Brady Bunch Christmas Album
	1:18pm Power Papi: Yep, I still have a copy from when I was a kid.
	1:18pm Linda Lee: i've just sold mine off. :-)
	1:19pm Linda Lee: selling the cabin, so time to let go. so tired of dragging vinyl around with me ~ it's been 40 years! enough!
	1:20pm Linda Lee: ahaha!! not leaving the show yet. :-)
	1:20pm solo mon: I am sad that sampling can’t happen anymore. Linda I too sold almost all of my records last year. Lighter load, but I’m a little wistful some times abt it.
	1:22pm Linda Lee: i know the feeling. i've actually accumulated & released 5 whole collections & i've had my regrets. do i remember now what i regretted releasing from those collections? nope.
	1:22pm solo mon: That Armenian italo disco had me shook! I was stopped in my tracks.
	1:24pm BC Sterrett: Morning everyone
	1:25pm Linda Lee: why can't sampling happen? just monkey with the sounds you like a bit & make them yours.
	1:25pm Otis: Afternoon BC
	1:26pm Linda Lee: hello! :-)
	1:27pm Sonderangebot: Hello BC!
	1:27pm Otis: @LL - Sampling in mainstream music for the most part. Ha, I just sample everything as many do, under the radar and all.
	1:28pm Linda Lee: right! totally under the radar. who wants to go mainstream anyway? ;-)
	1:29pm BC Sterrett: One of the reasons I asked to have a show on Tuesdays is so that I'd be sure to tune into Friendly Persuasion :)
	1:31pm Otis: Ha, thanks BC... looking forward to your show today with exorcisms!
	1:32pm Linda Lee: love this Ramsey Lewis track ~ until those high-pitched Hitchcock strings kick in!
	1:34pm Linda Lee: thats a pretty darn racy record cover! 1958, too!
	1:36pm BC Sterrett: Oh man, I remember finding that moldy copy of Flowers of Evil while visiting you in Canada. I cleaned it up and still use it today :)
	1:38pm Otis: I remember that BC!
	1:39pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show, Otis! Been listening in the kitchen while cooking and eating. Now I'm ready to dig into that fruit supreme.
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: OMG! There's a NFB ALBUM?!
	1:40pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i loves me some Fruit Supreme
	1:41pm Linda Lee: i love me some supreme fruits.
	1:42pm Otis: Hey Hey Rich... Yes, NFB on vinyl!
	1:43pm Linda Lee: music not to trip by. ;-)
	1:44pm Sonderangebot: OK so now there's a competition here: the window cleaners listening to reggaeton/soca and Otis ' show, who's going to win?
	1:45pm Linda Lee: Otis always wins.
	1:49pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Supreme Fruits love me, too! <3
	1:49pm Linda Lee: they sure do! :-)
	1:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): "Jump-around genres" could describe my preferences
	1:51pm Linda Lee: i love hearing those kids, Otis. so nice.
	1:52pm Linda Lee: you mean the fruits .. ?
	1:52pm solo mon: I love Jane Weaver!
	1:53pm Otis: Me too. Rich too, I know RiW is a fan as well!
	1:53pm Linda Lee: this is so nice.
	1:53pm Cp304: Can’t remember who scooped me to this one.. Simon idol I think..
	👻 1:54pm Kat in Chicago: I was away from my desk and heard "Music for Heavenly Bodies" and said to myself, "I bet that has a bunch of half nekkid ladies on the cover." Well, I was close. One all the way nekkid lady!
	2:01pm Linda Lee: wow. lovely segue, Otis! superb. :-)
	2:08pm Linda Lee: i love this stuff.
	2:12pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): this set is really pleasing me!
	2:12pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i'm extra spaced out today so these instrumental tunes keep zoning me out!
	2:12pm solo mon: I 100 percent recommend the movie “in fabrics” that you played from the soundtrack. My favorite film from 2019!
	2:14pm Sonderangebot: Solo I saw In Fabric at some festival last year! Lots of stuff to love in it!
	2:16pm solo mon: I will admit it probably goes on too long but it is fabulous!
	2:16pm solo mon: They had me at mannequin cult.
	2:17pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): remember when everybody had mannequins in their homes?
	2:18pm Linda Lee: i did makeup at 2 different mannequin factories in the early 80s & you must know: i brought things home.
	2:18pm solo mon: Ha remember?! we have 3 male mannequins in our hallway upstairs right now all wearing crochet armor
	2:19pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i still have one that was covered in sequins by solo mon's and my mutal friend, Kate!
	2:19pm solo mon: Mannequin Too
	2:20pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Linda Lee: another fascinating chapter in your memoirs!
	2:20pm solo mon: In “In fabrics” you get to see a peek at mannequin pubic hair!
	👻 2:20pm Kat in Chicago: Doing makeup at a mannequin factory sounds like a dream job, at least in theory.
	2:20pm chresti: I once had a job painting faces at a mannequin factory.
	2:21pm solo mon: I too had a job refurbishing mannequins worked in window display for years lol
	2:21pm Linda Lee: it was a very nice job! well paid, as well! we just sat around chatting, listening to music & painting. a nice crowd.
	2:22pm Linda Lee: chresti, where were you? do i know you? :-D
	2:22pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: i am not surprised that you have a fleet of adorned mannequins, and i hope to get an introduction next time i visit
	👻 2:22pm Kat in Chicago: "Freedom of '76" might be my favorite Ween tune. I'm jealous of you mannequin maker-uppers!
	2:22pm solo mon: We all come from such similar backgrounds hahaha my job was patching broken mannequins w fiberglass and sanding them down. Yuck.
	2:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): somehow we all found each other here, in Sheena's Jungle Room
	2:23pm Linda Lee: that was the shitty part of production, for sure.
	👻 2:23pm Kat in Chicago: I don't even get to make up my own face these days because of freaking COVID. Masks take up a lot of facial real estate and it's not like I go out unless I have to, anyway. I've put on lipstick for zoom calls but that's about it.
	2:23pm solo mon: They are actually Greg’s mannequins, but I love them.
	2:24pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Kat in Chicago: that's why i'm looking forward to the next craze: space bubble helmets!
	2:24pm solo mon: One of them is really sexy, but he has no face.
	👻 2:25pm Kat in Chicago: Now that would be fun, Granny!
	2:25pm Linda Lee: doing mannequin make up is totally different than our own. it's oil paint .. or was. they may do it differently now.
	2:25pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: you practice polymannequinry? ;)
	👻 2:26pm Kat in Chicago: I figured it was oil paint.
	2:26pm Linda Lee: i worked with a man who did mannequin makeup in the 1950s & he still used that style in the 80s. it was so great.
	2:26pm solo mon: GST literal spit take!!!
	2:26pm chresti: I worked for Grenneker/Bauchet Intl., when they had a factory in Commerce.
	2:26pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): with space bubble helmets, hair and makeup, and maybe even other adornments may be played with!
	2:27pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon!!!! i hope you didn't bemoil your doily!
	2:27pm solo mon: NSFW means turn it up!
	2:28pm solo mon: What’s a spit take but with a bong called?
	2:28pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i'm READY
	2:28pm Sonderangebot: polymannequinry lol granny ... oh yeah play some Blowfly
	2:29pm solo mon: Yes love sexual harassment excercise your ass off!
	👻 2:29pm Kat in Chicago: "I Need A Freak" is so good
	2:29pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): if you ain't a Blowfly fan, better run!!!!
	2:29pm Linda Lee: aho! ok. i was in new york. i did know about Grenneker. we were your 'competition' at Pucci. i don't remember the second company name at all, but they were in Williamsburg, Brooklyn when it was still very low-key mellow there.
	2:30pm chresti: That was in 84/85, I still can identify some of the faces I painted in window displays, department stores.
	2:31pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): wow, chresti!
	2:31pm Linda Lee: haha! i was working in 79-80 at Pucci in Manhattan & the Brooklyn company in 83 - 84.
	2:32pm chresti: Bauchet bought Grenneker, I guess, they moved their factory to Mexico, last I heard.
	2:34pm Power Papi: Oh Blowfly, you scamp!
	2:35pm solo mon: Man, I just worked for a drag queen who had a business refurbishing vintage mannequins. Pucci now that is world class!
	2:37pm Linda Lee: they weren't world class yet in the late 70s, but theey were working at it. Ralph worked his ass off. I believe he's the CEO now.
	2:37pm chresti: Haha LL, our mannequins overlap! The competition was Dekter mannequins.
	2:38pm chresti: Pucci's is more high end, I think.
	👻 2:39pm Kat in Chicago: Laughing my ass off!
	2:39pm Linda Lee: i remember Dekter too. at Pucci they talked about the competition obsessively.
	2:39pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i got all my mannequins from two Portland area scavengers who had this wacky warehouse scen back in the 1980s. solo mon do you by chance know of Kip and Jacquetta (Chloe does!)? Their son was in a thrash punk band called Wehrmacht
	2:39pm solo mon: This song is funny.
	2:39pm solo mon: Wacky willies??
	2:40pm chresti: I love I Need a Freak!
	2:40pm Linda Lee: this is hilarious!
	2:41pm Sonderangebot: How did you ever get the mannequin painting jobs?
	2:43pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: not WW's, they had a warehouse and dumpster dived and sold things at flea markets and preyed on young cuties like me
	2:44pm Linda Lee: i found both my jobs in the Village Voice. they liked that i'd gone to an arts high school.
	2:44pm solo mon: The very Last time I went out before covid 19 Tina lockdown was karaoke and I did “I need a freak”
	2:45pm chresti: I got mine after answering an ad in the LA Times. I sent some slides of my paintings, the women that hired me traded an old vintage mannequin for one of my paintings
	2:45pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): ah, i remember my last live karaoke… Dana's nit sure what to do about her career.
	2:46pm solo mon: YAY!!!
	👻 2:46pm Kat in Chicago: excellent
	2:46pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): and for once i clicky starred before chresti!!! :)
	2:47pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Wait! How did she get there before me!?!?
	2:47pm chresti: Foiled again:)
	2:47pm Otis: Ha! Lots of freaks in this chat! Go freaky freak freaks (yours included).
	2:47pm Sonderangebot: I often clicky star a song and chresti liked it first, too!
	2:48pm BC Sterrett: I'm still listening, just getting things done around the house and setting up in the studio :)
	2:48pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): she's a quick one—sly thing
	2:48pm Linda Lee: this reminds me of my theme song at the club in SF ~ the one i always stripped to. the one by Rick James..
	2:49pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): LL: that's perfect!
	2:52pm solo mon: Yeah granny how the fuck do we do anything taking that job last week was such a slap in the face. I’m like nope nope nope can’t even do my job anymore. What to do??
	2:53pm solo mon: Bow wowow yipppeee yo yipppeeyay
