Hello, everybody. Courtney wanted me to get here early again to sweep, scour and scrub the poutin' shanty in preparation for tonight's radio extravaganza. He also wanted me to post what he calls a Public Service Announcement:

Courtney says: "Don't give money to WFMU. They are scoundrels and poltroons. Give your extra money to me. I will invest it in mountains of 78rpm discs purchased from the estates of my recently deceased contemporaries."

Lolabelle Pancake:

On tonight's show, we have several exciting new sponsors and a special guest appearance by Gus Bodenheim, who is related to a famous dead reprobate.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:14am
rrg:

Good morning, Lolabelle. It's reassuring to know that the poutin' shanty, the playlist administration, and even Courtney's career itself are in such capable hands as yours. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. Well, maybe no one HAS to do it but I'm glad someone does.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:20am
rrg:

I'm doing my part by patronizing some of Courtney's sponsors. For instance, I've never smoked before but I've taken up smoking Camels. It's the cigarette smoked by more doctors than any other because of its mild taste. Just one puff is enough to make anyone a believer.

The continuing presence of Fablo on the WFMU airwaves rankles and upsets all of Courtney's fans. We hope something can be done about it soon.

I tried making caramels and they ended up smoking. As well as stinking. Is that like you mean, rrg?

Fablo must think it's Halloween comes once a week--to be specific Thursdays from 3-6--everything he plays is a horror!!

Laura, do you think Fablo's program meets the federal threshold for terrorism?
Avatar 5:40pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Courtney thinks the DHS should be summoned.
Avatar 5:49pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Fablo should be escorted out of the studio in handcuffs, past a jeering mob.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:50pm
rrg:

I would join that mob. I would taunt and jeer. If you can make that happen, sign me up.
Avatar 5:53pm
Lolabelle Pancake:

Courtney says they'll be selling postcards of the hanging.

Laura L:

I don't even need to acquaint myself with the federal guidelines to know it qualifies! I hope Courtney can call the FBI and the CIA and the Secret Court.

Is it on now? I only hear random low-frequency noises issuing from my Radiola. Is it just some kind of hum? My hearing was damaged in a snark-tagging accident in 1954.

Baby Dodds played a rhythm pattern reminiscent of "The Campbells are Coming, Hoo-ray Hoo-ray." Just stating the obvious.

Oh, hello, Gus! Courtney is delighted you're "in the shanty."

This Django appeals to me ...& I appreciate he only has two fingers to use ...but clearly Gittar is a Chord instrument that isn't loud enuff & this fiddling has no future...
