What a Dancin' week!

Ready to go.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:08pm Doug S.:

Congrats on playing maybe the first Toots Thielemans track I've ever dug! And congrats on the year's worth of other diggables you've served up in '12! It's been a great year of Sunday evenings.

  Sun. 12/23/12 7:10pm Parq:

Howdy, Miss Mon and faithful attendants. You'll never in a billion years guess where I'm going in a short while, but I wanted to stop by and wish Monica a Merry and a Happy, and to all her listeners, please enjoy the adapted pagan solstice observance of your choice.

  Sun. 12/23/12 7:23pm tr;sh:

Like ironing out soup.. to make soup.

@monica
Yeah and whew. Google's got it with the quotes "line pan with wafers"
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:27pm deanland:

The GIF is in sync with the Cutmaster cut. Wow, internet magic.

"Holiday hordes are horrendous!" The best quote of this year's holiday season.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:37pm Cold Sesame Noodles:

I once won a dance contest at my junior high school dancing way too much like the fellow at left. Back then, my afro was bigger than his. Way bigger.

  Sun. 12/23/12 7:39pm I X Key!:

My thing is too wobbly
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:39pm Krys O.:

Happy Crimble, Monica!
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:40pm deanland:

My dark holiday thought: Rabbi Schneerson returns to the planet, resurrected (in Boro Park,of course) on the 26th, thus proving wrong the teachings of Christianity. Then he goes on TV and announces he intends to go to Herkimer, NY, and will from there walk to Salt Lake City...
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:41pm G:

Stealing a few minutes away from family. Mental health break :)
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:43pm deanland:

Schneerson also announces he will be taking Darlene Love and Brittany Spears as additional wives. Darlene for the music, Brittany for reproductive services.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:46pm david:

Amid the Holiday Shopping Hordes, there's at least the solace of knowing you're not quite yet sitting across a table from certain reprehensible relatives. :)
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:47pm I X Key!:

Hooray @G!
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:48pm G:

lol, feeling better already
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:49pm tomB:

McCartney's my least favorite Beatle, but this has always been one of my two favorite Beatle songs.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:49pm CB1:

Hola, Mo. Loving this dancin' bit. Did you know CB2 once had an afro like that? I'll show you pixs.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:50pm deanland:

@David: amen!
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:50pm marc:

I liked hearing "Judy In Disguise (With Glasses)" in the background.

  Sun. 12/23/12 7:55pm Guy Walker:

34th St. is the hell looking for my friend Jeff to get the hell out of hell some Amtrak guy kicks me off the platform because Jeff has my ticket saying I'm trespassing without a ticket and calls the cops on me. I found Jeff and left, but one more minute they would have detained me as a terrorist.
  Sun. 12/23/12 7:56pm zotz:

Trains are no longer the glory of our civilization.

  Sun. 12/23/12 8:00pm david:

If only John had thought twice about that controversial remark, Paul could've gone ahead with the original lyric: "Jesus! Look what you're doing!"
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:01pm tr;sh:

I've intentionally walked into few people on the sidewalk who've had their heads down, glued to a screen.
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:01pm Parq:

What burns my bacon when I'm out and about in town is what's been done -- I blame the suburbanites and Giuliani, myself -- to rob the city of its unique character and make living here just like living in the rest of America, where you shop at Wal-Mart, get everywhere by private car and are guaranteed racial homogeneity in your home neighborhood. When a city person (former suburbanite, like me) burbles about how happy she is to see yet another Starbucks or 7-11 opening up, or a traffic crossing closed to pedestrians, or local school getting an increasingly all-white student population, I want to scream "What did you come to the city for, anyway, since it obviously wasn't to get away from suburban mores and culture like it was with me??"
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:02pm I X Key!:

Ah
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:05pm zotz:

I'm old enough to remember the city before McDonalds. John Prine is still a big deal...now and forever. Let's all survive Christmas eh folks?
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:07pm david:

True, tr;sh... Certainly less tolerant of those gaggles of kids in midtown now that they're also simultaneously looking down at their portable screens while walking...
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:08pm zotz:

But yeah M. Parq, you are right. Though Koch started the ball rolling downhill.
Avatar ♥   Sun. 12/23/12 8:10pm monica:

hear hear, zotz...yes, parq! agree...sweet cheri, have a lovely one, dear...tr;sh, love that...Guy Walker, the worst, right?.... marc, it's a swell cover by roberio duprat... tomB, it's a good one, hadn't heard myself for a minute...CB1!!! NO!!!
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:13pm zotz:

Man those dancers seem to keep every beat...
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:14pm Windy City:

Monica thanks for making 2012 a better year !
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:14pm tr;sh:

It's a reflective sorta mean because before, both parties would move a little. Maybe even smile or say 'excuse me'. Rude phone glue force the other to do all the moving.
No way. Let's play an imbalanced game of chicken.
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:14pm david:

there's always the mental tack of "willing" the hordes to move faster, or trip up in some non-lethal, embarrassing mishap
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:16pm Tir Chonail Abu:

Finally tuned In live again just had to before the year was out. Merry Xmas Monica glad to hear you finally moved. All the best great to hear your show again and to see all the old faces.
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:17pm zotz:

Midtown cash cattle in slow moving herds..where are the shepherds?
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:22pm Bob:

This Koudeds tune sounds spookily like Group Inerane
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:24pm I X Key!:

What is going on here?
Avatar ♥   Sun. 12/23/12 8:25pm monica:

so great to hear from you, Tir Chonail Abu! all the best to you too...Bob, related!...zotz, exzackly, where?....thank YOU, windy city!... david, if only...
  Sun. 12/23/12 8:28pm I X Key!:

Happy holidays!
