Joe Steele:

I might call that bluff.
  9:16am
annie:

  9:21am
PMD:

  9:21am
risky!:

morning ben and all!
  9:29am
bw:

were any of youse at the bill callahan show on saturday? not too bad I thought..
  9:29am
Joe Steele:

"I have a feeling things are going to happen here." will be my first comment on each show I comment on from now on.

Very astute, Peggy.
  9:31am
Adrian in London:

And the hits just keep on coming. That Soundcarriers track was great, and this (BC) is from the best album of the year so far.
  9:35am
PMD:

What did you do to that poor blind lady?
  9:39am
bw:

what did I do??? I was the victim!
  9:41am
annie:

PMD- you rock!
  9:45am
Parq:

Don Simon panel: I'm guessing that's not a cross he's holding.
  9:49am
Joe Steele:

Nobody will know it's her? Really?

sigh...
  9:52am
PMD:

Everyone knows that blind ladies are always right...
Just kidding. You should have beat the crap out of her with her cane...
  9:53am
PMD:

Won't she trip on that red costume it's so long?
  10:00am
Joe Steele:

Damn right I'm excited!
  10:00am
annie:

ah, yes, but does the staircase really frighten him?
  10:00am
Parq:

That's the up-side of cell phones, Ben. 20 yrs ago, you would have had to find a phone booth and then wait a couple of days to connect with the guy. Of course, the down-side is listening to self-centered nits babbling on and on as you try to walk to work.
  10:05am
Joe Steele:

Quit facebooking while you're on the job, BW.
  10:07am
bw:

did you all get your facebook names?

some bastard took bwalker!!!! Iwoke up hungover and all I got was bee.walker56898
  10:08am
annie:

he should really cut his fingernails.
  10:08am
dc pat:

ixneh on the acebookfeh
  10:09am
annie:

bw, i think i like my name; no username for me. radicalmom is in bad enough trouble on other sites, leave alone FB..
  10:10am
Joe Steele:

I'm the only me on the planet, so not much trouble.
  10:11am
Joe Steele:

Lady in reddddddddd, is choked into sleep.

By some creep.
  10:14am
John Dillinger:

Maybe she'll step out with me...go t' the pictures or somethin'.
  10:16am
bw:

I actually have a few frens who stayed in and up to get those facebook letters!
  10:18am
Joe Steele:

In hindsight, I supposed I missed the money making opportunity of getting a celebrity name and selling it back to them.
  10:21am
annie:

now that's devotion bw. and on the bones note, there: i'd love to see a compilation of all the films etc, that have the theme of someone locked up. sound bytes mix.. start the epic with one story and weave through each one, like a ribbon of images.
  10:23am
dc pat:

god am I glad I have no idea what you're talking about re: facebook.
  10:24am
annie:

  10:30am
Cecile:

Sad news - Chris Knox from the Tall Dwarfs, Toy Love and solo had a massive stroke over the weekend. Last reports was that he was starting to do a little better.

And the Bats are my friend on MySpace. I'm sure that means I can stay at their place when I visit NZ, right?
  10:34am
krebstar:

Cecile:

  10:37am
annie:

  10:39am
jimmy jezz:

Europe, I was there once. It's over-rated, if you ask me. The people all talk funny.
  10:41am
Joe Steele:

Doesn't that booksotre have a card they punch everytime you do a broadcast from there? 5th one gets you a free copy of "Catcher in the Rye" or something.
  10:46am
Parq:

Jimmy, did you notice that too? And there are places, like something called Ireland, where people drive wrong to boot.
  10:48am
Gizmo Duck:

Play The Kinks
  10:50am

  10:59am
PMD:

Was in a meeting.
Re: FB names, I got my full name. Guess not too many Poles doing FB
  11:02am
LizGig:

Kirsty MacColl says 'In these shoes? I don't think so!'
  11:06am
karao:

robot monkey!!!
  11:11am
Parq:

Liz, did MacColl do that song too? I saw a stunning semi-live (live vox, taped instruments) version by Camile O'Sullivan that totally sold me on her.
  11:12am
Scarlett O'Hara:

And ruin a perfect dress?
  11:13am
still b/p:

Seven Year Itchfluence.
  11:14am
Parq:

@Eileen, 10:52: are you trying to tell me you don't think it's cute when I burst into your local pub with a kelly-green "Kiss Me I'm Irish" sweatshirt and holler "Schlitz, dude"?
  11:14am
PMD:

Oh, I like this Pterdactyl
  11:17am
LizGig:

So far as I know, Kirsty MacColl wrote it. It was on her last album, Tropical Brainstorm. Fun album.
  11:18am
Eileen:

Tell me where you can get a good Schlitz in Dublin and I'll be there!
  11:21am
jimmy jezz:

Hey this Walker Kid is playing some pretty good music - nice to here some music from a real city like philly.
  11:24am
dc pat:

don't blame me because all my ancestors hail from there...
  11:24am
Parq:

I don't understand what this singer is saying. Must be from Europe.
  11:24am
annie:

i think the lady in red should just take up ventriloquism. the hell with the get-up, and the bother to find a closet in which to change.
  11:25am
The Log Lady:

The comic panel for The Sapphires is broken, boo.
  11:28am
Adrian in London:

I always think that when trying to surrepticiously creep around a house at night,a bright read costume is the best disguise.
  11:29am
Moody Blues:

Red is grey, and yellow white.
  11:30am
still b/p:

"This increase of materials featuring brutality and violence is being offered to any child who has the 10-cent purchase price."
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/8580/kefauver.html
  11:31am
Joe Steele:

When you're the sole guest in a house of maybe 3 people, no disguise will seem particularly smart.
  11:31am
annie:

i live for this moment, the liz-benjamen interaction
  11:34am
jimmy jezz:

Enough with the Europe, already - shouldn't they be plugging the morning show?

  11:39am
Parq:

I was in Paris in '00, but I remember that the comics scene there was as vibrant as the music scene. So yes, I second the request for Paris 'toonist info.
  11:42am
konstantin:

i lost my wallet while biking in brooklyn on saturday night and a guy named benjamin found it, googled my name, found my email, and met me to return it a few minutes later. how coincidental.
