  3:15pm

42.195 kilometres of failure? Ultra epic, dudes.

  3:21pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

no one can keep up with the Pigeon!
  3:22pm
Pantagruel:

I want a t shirt of The Triumvirate.
  3:23pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Fabio, just give up and let him run where he will run
  3:25pm
Bill:

Frostburg is nowhere near Fredrick...it is about 1.5 hr further west!
  3:25pm
JCJ:

Asking Clay to "bring it down a bit" has to be the ultimate in futility. Or in failure.
  3:25pm
Ike:

Frostburg is way out in western MD, way west of Frederick. It's pretty out there.

Somebody give Clay Pigeon some of Ken's dog meds.
  3:25pm
Cecile:

YES!
  3:25pm

You forgot The Incredible Mr. Limpet, Clay. Knotts as animated dolphin.
  3:32pm
Cecile:

Jim, he's not down with the Limpet.
  3:34pm
Cecile:

I went to college and did college radio with Rob and Katie.
  3:35pm
Ike:

@Cecile, is that how you found FMU?
  3:35pm
Mary Wing:

Julie's a revelation, woo!
  3:36pm
Cecile:

Yeah, from Rob and sending fanzines to other college radio stations.
  3:37pm
jill o.:

Got any Floyd?
  3:37pm
Cecile:

I even have a scene report for Rob in one of my old 'zines. I did a station zine for CBn for a couple of years.
  3:37pm
BSI:

bah, I did my pledge via the website & didn't have a place to make a goofy-assed comment for Clay's amusement!
  3:38pm
TDK60:

Can we send Reverend Billy to Wisconsin, quickly?
  3:39pm
BSI:

somewhat blushing with clenched cloaca...
  3:41pm
Mary Wing:

Bah, this is killing me! Clay and Fabio are ON FIRE!

I think Clay and Tom Scharpling should co-host every show for the rest of the marathon!
  3:41pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

ovipositor
  3:42pm
Ike:

Wurtsboro is indeed near 90.1 FM. I've driven past there to go hiking (and collect blueberries) at Sam's Point Preserve.

@Mary, HA! That would drive some of the DJs CRAZY! Can you imagine Mr. Finewine vs. Clay Pigeon?!?
  3:42pm
Cecile:

I've always considered WFMU an ovipositive culture.

I forgot to say, hi Mary WIng!
  3:42pm
βrian:

What is it, now? Fille qui mousse?
  3:43pm
Looms:

yes
  3:43pm
Mary Wing:

Mr. Fine Wine will just have to unclench also, heh. Clay will show him how.
  3:44pm
seang:

Monica is coming in at 6 -alright!
  3:46pm
Cecile:

Is Clay playing air guitar to this yet?
  3:47pm
glenn:

  3:48pm
marc:

Clay pigeon for 4 hours...who could ask for anything more?
  3:48pm
Cecile:

Let's Active.
  3:48pm
nyoukis:

Clay is having a Sheen moment
  3:48pm
marc:

I pledged last week to Clay's show.
  3:48pm
glenn:

although clay will probably want to channel his inner dennis de young.
  3:51pm
Cecile:

that's true, Clay.
The Ambassador bar in Houghton, MI makes a good one.
  3:52pm
BSI:

i highly recommend the tempeh ruben.
and whatever clay had with his vivarin....
  3:53pm
Julie:

I'm here answering phones! give me something to do 1-800-989-9368
  3:53pm
Reuben S. Jackson:

ham reuben? it was a reference to clay's endless classic rock sets,,,,hello?
  3:54pm
Al:

It is also called a Turban when sour kraut is not substituted with coleslaw
  3:54pm
βrian:

That's because Cecile is from Houghton.
  3:54pm
Rob W:

Pronouncer: Houghton - That's pronounced HO - ton - the brilliant Cecile's original stomping grounds!
  3:55pm
chris:

you people know your sandwiches!
  3:55pm
Cecile:

that is true. I also recommend the tostada pizza. Inauthentically delicious!
  3:56pm
βrian:

Not to perseverate, but Houghton is within driving distance of FitzWalkerstan. C'mon down and help us make some noise.
  3:57pm
Mary Wing:

Lars Von Trier
  3:58pm
βrian:

I'll never forgive Fabio for recommending the Enigma of Kaspar Hauser.
  3:59pm
Ike:

Right angles! HA HA... *what*?!? Oh, maybe he's thinking of German artwork and album covers?!?
  4:00pm
glenn:

what if it was kaspar hausu?
  4:00pm
BSI:

If it were possible, I'd pledge my goddamned KIDNEYS to Fabio for turning me on to Natural Snow Buildings this year. I have spoken!
  4:01pm
Cecile:

You guys have got to star in the next Judd Apatow bromance movie. It is imperative.
  4:01pm
βrian:

@BSI: The team is on the way.
  4:01pm
AnAnonymousParty:

I used to have the Midas touch. Everything I touched turned into a muffler.
  4:02pm
Cecile:

And Rob, you are too kind.
  4:02pm

fabio and clay should just let the other shoe drop and do a weekly 3-hour talk show!
  4:03pm

AnAnonymousParty:

Only on WFMU will you hear someone say "this is actually a great album" and think to yourself "despite the way it sounds."
  4:05pm
βrian:

I'm embarrassed to say I love the Bandoneon.
  4:05pm
Cecile:

I have a movie recommendation: The Illusionist. It's a cartoon, but it's very adult and melancholy, and despite its Frenchness :D, very funny.

Also, in music reviews, the new Faust disc is great.
  4:06pm
JJ:

whistle tips go WOO WOO
  4:06pm
jill o.:

Maybe Fabio & Clay could do an in-depth program on hair-metal?
  4:07pm
Danne D:

Julie :) Hope the phone rings a lot for you :)
  4:07pm

  4:08pm
AnAnonymousParty:

I'ma gonna start my own whistle tip orchestra. I'ma gonna need some more cars.
  4:08pm
Ike:

@jill o., I doubt Fabio could bear that! He'd tear his hair out and run screaming! (So would I.) Heh!
  4:09pm

I had *movie recommendations* in my comment, but swapped it for "reviews" for brevity's sake!

Hornet Montana:

Brian immediately declares his sign, random!
  4:20pm
Hornet Montana:

This could be the sound inside Clay's mind.
  4:20pm
stool pigeon:

hey hornet,screw you
  4:23pm
Hornet Montana:

You have been on many playlists under different guises saying "hey, screw you". Notice is taken.
  4:24pm
JJ:

TROLL
  4:25pm
Hey:

"stool pigeon" is actually best described on a first-name-only basis.
  4:25pm
jeremy the listener:

Clay rocks.
  4:25pm
bb:

oh no, bring back clay pigeon!!!!
  4:25pm
ADM:

since it is marathon time, we should have TOLLS instead of TROLLS
  4:26pm
ted:

i'll bet stool pigeon has a small penis (or maybe none at all) and a large gas sucking car
clay...your funny as hell!!
  4:27pm
BSI:

we are all clay pigeons on the bus.
  4:28pm
Brutus:

eat pigeon stool, stool pigeon
  4:28pm
Ike:

Fabio's premiums are the BEST.
  4:28pm
Pete (The Flicker):

Don't listen to the naysayers. The biggest hit of the year on 'FMU is the collaboration between Fabio and Clay. Nothing short of magic. I can't stop listening!
  4:29pm
stool pigeon:

hey ted, screw you
  4:30pm
BSI:

Fabio's "drone zone" premium from a couple of years ago was the bee's knees hellbomb of eyelid cartoons, man, worth its weight in angel saliva.
  4:30pm
Hey:

you're a deep thinker, eh, stool dude?
  4:31pm
Pete (The Flicker):

Grover Cleveland is o the $1000.00 bill.
  4:31pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

well, this doesn't happen very often, does it? don't bait the guy, he's looking for a fight
  4:32pm
Cecile:

Dale, my fellow Porcupine Tree fan? Aw, sorry to hear that.
  4:32pm
minnesota jeff:

That bastard Grover Cleveland is on the $1000.00! What'd he'd ever do to make it on there!!?
  4:32pm
WHITEY:

Hey,HEY,screw you...
  4:32pm
Cecile:

From the Halls of Montezuma is the Marine Song. I heard it enough growing up.
  4:32pm
yes but:

"i'll bet stool pigeon has a small penis (or maybe none at all)"

I would like to point out that having no penis at all would make him a lady, which isn't actually an insult?
  4:32pm
Pete (The Flicker):

He became a dead president!
  4:32pm
Hornet Montana:

Maybe wifey being in the building is contributing to his silver tongue!
  4:33pm
Dale from North Dakota:

Thanks, Fabio and Clay. And yes, WFMU has most certainly been part of my healing. No failure here.
  4:33pm
Danne D:

Grover Cleveland = only President born in New Jersey by the way :)
  4:34pm
orginal dale (from the hudson valley):

i've never heard so many 'dales' as i have with this marathon.
  4:35pm
minnesota jeff:

@Fabio - Its true. I looked it up on the internet.
  4:35pm
Mary Tyler Moore:

I'm not from Minnesota, silly! I'm from Brooklyn!! (True)
The U.S. Treasury doesn't issue a $1000 note. No Grover. No nuthin'.
  4:35pm
ted:

movie tip of the day for Fab and Clay

Black Narcissus
  4:36pm
Dale from North Dakota:

@original dale: I noted that a long time ago, so always post as this. Makes me seem obscure, too, lol. @Cecile: thank you so much.
  4:36pm
Hey:

Why Cleveland on the 1000 bill?, people asked. Cleveland was the only Democrat President from Lincoln till Woodrow Wilson, over 50 years later. He was very interested in economic policy. He was born in NEW JERSEY, fwiw.
  4:37pm
Cecile:

Yes, they were. Nudie was the tailor.
  4:37pm
Tired:

I really need to know what substance Clay is on today - pleeze!
  4:37pm
minnesota jeff:

@mary tyler moore - It was printed as a small-size Federal Reserve Note in 1928, 1934

Over hill and dale, people should come to pledge to WFMU :)
  4:38pm
orginal dale (from the hudson valley):

must be a baby boomer thing. there were 3 dales in my high school class - haven't run into another since. i'll bet we are all around 50
  4:38pm
Skirkie:

Woodrow Wilson is on the $100,000 bill. And apparently there's a $10,000 with some dude named Salmon P. Chase on it.
  4:38pm
truth:

he's had one beer
  4:39pm
Ike:

@YB, presumably the assumption is that 99.99% of net trolls are male. I bet a female troll is as rare as a $1000 bill. Another way in which the ladies are superior.
  4:39pm
Cold Sesame Noodles:

No! His FIRST name was Nudie. Nudie Cohn:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nudie_Cohn
  4:39pm
Skirkie:

Anyone want to throw some Wilsons or Chases WFMU's way, I say go for it.
  4:39pm
Dale from North Dakota:

@original dale: yep, I'm 48. Was supposed to be "Dave", but the kid next door was named Dave and was a real terror, so here I am...
  4:39pm
Hey:

Salmon Chase founded Chase Bank and was Sec'y of the Treasury under Lincoln when the US first issued paper money to fund the Civil War.
  4:40pm
Hornet Montana:

Is knife crime still a problem in London?
  4:40pm
Danne D:

Betcha a lot more Dales have been born in the last 10 years, especially down south.
  4:40pm
Danne D:

Really woulda thought all this talk about currency denominations woulda happened on the Thunk Tank btw.
  4:41pm

Where can I see a picture of this Fabio? He really sounds... hot!
  4:43pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

the beard thing is pretty much reaching the mainstream now, so all the hipsters soon will have clean faces
  4:43pm
Rerun Watchers:

@mary: Go pick up your hat.
  4:43pm
JJ:

Beards on baby faces, yeah. They're harmless though.

From what I've read about Brooklyn, Harry, yes.

Clay is a trip.
  4:53pm
Dale from North Dakota:

What's a tasty cake and why would Fabio refuse to eat one? Maybe he should offer to drink some 4-Loco instead, that did in Tom Scharpling!
  4:54pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

it's like a nastier twinkie
  4:54pm
harry t:

trip?douche!
  4:54pm

anyone who cares about their health would do well to avoid a tastykake

HΘRNET MΘNTANA:

Durning and Dennehy should sumo wrestle for FMU.

  4:58pm
HΘRNET MΘNTANA:

If the suggestion about lax security is based on my ability to be here instead of guarding the facility, this is based on an erroneous assumption that I am security personnel. This is untrue and impossible, in truth. Those employees are not allowed to learn how to type, so as to foster dedication to awareness.
  5:00pm
Adam from Lynnwood, Washington:

Julie, great Dark Night of the Soul show the other night!! Fabio, you have pointed me in the direction of SO MANY amazing albums I have gone on to purchase! Clay Pigeon, when is Norton Records releasing your poetry and prose box set, to be followed by your tour with Neil Hamburger? WFMU!!!!!
  5:00pm
Dialipl Panfleet:

Fabio, had I the money, I would have 'adopted' you 'cause you have to coolest picture online, compared to all of the other dj's.

Mary Wing:

It's usually on the main page at wfmu.org, JJ. Check later today, maybe they'll take Rev. Billy off the front page.
  5:10pm
Danne D:

JJ - they do actually - it's a Radioland theme - it's not always up but it is often up on the home page where the Reverend Billy is right now.
  5:10pm

@JJ: there is one sometimes on the front page, but right now it's Reverend Billy instead

Arm hairs actually hurt a lot. Make sure not to get a Band-Aid on a hairy area if you get blood drawn.

Lalena :) if the DVDs are a grand prize then you still have a chance (if you pledged enough to qualify). Check the archive later though - you probably won something cool anyway :)

The irritament has become the irritatee :)
  5:54pm
Robert:

The involuntary piercings and tattooings bother me. Actually all physical hurting does, but body mutilation, unless they secretly WANT it -- as it seems Ken really did with his tattoo -- just makes me sad.
  5:55pm
Today's Board:

True, fred. And I forgot the pot brownie thing, too. We'll see/hear.
  5:55pm
AB:

Clay, that is not how Rod Stewart sings "Handbags and Gladrags." You are singing it like Ethel Merman.
  5:56pm
BSI:

oh crap, that CD reissue of Disco 3000 is fully awesome. Beautiful package as well.
  5:56pm
Robert:

But I was most afraid for Ken with the balloons, and would've pledged for cinder blocks if I'd had money.
  5:56pm
Danne D:

Andy knows what he's signed up for by now Robert so no worries :)

Last year was MUCH worse for Andy probably with his cell number getting given out.
  5:58pm
Robert:

But I'm guessing he didn't really WANT a piercing. Then again, maybe that's all a front.
  5:58pm

MHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMHMH...

@Robert: have no fear, Ken has been learning his lesson well. Check out Keili's show last Sunday for his karaoke performance.
  5:59pm
Ike:

No, I think it WAS just one.

there's not wanting something but there's the willingness to go through with it.

lol yeah fred - there was some brutal accompaniment on Fluffy as well :)
  6:00pm
Desp:

Robert, I'm not sure how stunt-radio like SSD would work without, umm, stunts.
  6:00pm

Maybe it's like when cats fight. It looks awful to us, and could occasionally even be fatal, but it seems they receive from it an endorphin rush the like of which we can scarcely imagine.
  6:00pm
"Just One Clay Hater":

The studio staff would know, if the IPs are all the same.
  6:01pm
Danne D:

I would say that Andy and Ken are the best of frenemies and thus it works :) Kinda like Penn and Teller in "Penn and Teller Get Killed"
  6:01pm
Robert:

Stunts are OK. It's HURTING of the physical kind, and persistent body alteration, that makes me sad.
  6:01pm
fred:

@Robert: If Andy didn't really want a piercing or didn't have an escape route, he'd have pledged to extra $$$ to have Ken get it.
  6:02pm
Robert:

Like, you know, cockfighting or the like.
fred, I thought of that, but maybe he didn't really want Ken to get one either.
  6:02pm
Danne D:

If Andy didn't secretly like it he wouldn't have put "Piggly Wiggly" back on the people this week.
  6:03pm
Danne D:

I feel like I'm at a hockey game now and they are resurfacing the ice before the next period starts.
  6:03pm
Robert:

Piggly Wiggly's OK. Sexual activity isn't HURTING, it's GOOD.
  6:04pm
fred:

I'm still thinking the Andy cutout gets the piercing
  6:04pm
Robert:

Just keep manually refreshing.
  6:04pm
Suggestion Box:

@Robert: Maybe it would help to let other people work their own interactions and decisions out, rather than you having to decide for sure what is horrible for them that makes you sad to think about.
  6:04pm
Desp:

@Fred, that would be hilarious.
  6:05pm
Danne D:

Um, are you talking about the pig with the manually refreshing? And I don't know that the big would be none too happy.

Btw yay Julie :D
  6:05pm
Robert:

If it were fucking a small animal, that would be cruel. But a pig, no.
  6:06pm
Robert:

Suggestion Box, I've just gotten attached to these guys. It seems auto-refresh is still on.
  6:07pm
Danne D:

I have no answer for that one, Robert.

You should write a testimonial asking that Andy be excused from the piercing :) I know Andy would appreciate that.
  6:08pm
Danne D:

Stick around this board haters :) More to come here.
  6:08pm
fred:

@danne: You mean Robert is actually Andy? Interacting with us? No way he'd be that desperate
  6:09pm
Robert:

I'm not Andy, but I'm fat.
  6:09pm
Danne D:

No I don't mean that fred :)
I meant that he should write a testimonial for Andy and send it to him c/o the station - Andy would like that.
  6:11pm
can't speak to the pain issue, but:

Robert, piercings aren't permanent if you don't keep the ring in. They close up again.
  6:12pm
Robert:

What's with this concept of "haters" I saw first on YouTube text? Criticism is now hatred?

Yes, I've been told about the piercing. That's why I wrote "persistent" rather than "permanent".
  6:12pm
Danne D:

I don't think you're a hater Robert - I was referring to others :)
  6:13pm
Danne D:

Actually you seem like a nice guy since you are worried about Andy :)
  6:13pm
Robert:

Ken and Hank didn't even have Harold circumcised, IIRC.
  6:14pm
Danne D:

Hmm, maybe it IS Andy :)
Anyhow, that's more of a line for the Too Much Information show I think :)
  6:15pm
Robert:

What? It's not like one of those robot shows where this get synthesized and aired.
  6:16pm
player:

Yeah, "hater" refers to the guy who was hatin' on Clay.
  6:16pm
Danne D:

I just meant that factoid was kinda too much information that's all.
  6:17pm
fred:

@Robert: beware, Ken did that once (after he struggled to regain access to his phone)
  6:17pm
Robert:

Oh, I see, he self-identified as such.

I'm a fount of TMI.
  6:18pm
Danne D:

LOL :)
  6:20pm
Robert:

But I do feel genuinely sorry for these guys. I didn't even write down the phone number of whichever one, or both, of them that was given out. I mean, these guys entertain us AS A HOBBY and A FAVOR; why should we "repay" them with annoyance?
  6:34pm
Suggestion Box:

Did he finally stop repeating himself about stuff that's not his business? (not his business, assuming that mature people like Andy can handle their own decisions)
  6:35pm
Danne D:

I will cop that I dialed the number and sent Andy a few texts - for a week. I figure that there needed to be some grist ahead of the next week's show. Nothing harmful or hateful (though there was a massive picture mail fail) but after that I sent a final message that thanked Andy for being a good sport. I guess I just view the whole think a bit differently - I mean they are offering shirts that make them pay you $2 when they see them.

@suggestion box Not so sure, but he's at least a compassionate soul, I can give him points for that :)
  6:38pm
Suggestion Box:

As Thoreau implied long ago in an oft-quoted sentence, people who claim they want to help others are often the scariest and most threatening people of all :-(
  6:39pm
Danne D:

No doubt SB - the suggestions are scary. No bout a doubt that.
