	🎸 ♥ 5:37pm dale: hey fablio. had you on in the garage and just sitting down at the pooter.....some good racket.
	5:39pm Uncle Monk: ↳ Krull Sagan @5:27 The episode that gave us the immortal line "Y'know, every frame of this movie looks like someone's last known photograph."
	♥ 5:39pm βrian: Any job in Boston should include housing. [Or NYC, SF, and so on, I guess.]
	♥ 5:40pm northguineahills: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:36 not sure, as the mass transit situation there is iffy compared to here. that , and all of my boston friends have left for NW MA, upstate NY, or NYC...

	♥ 5:42pm βrian: ↳ northguineahills @5:40 The last time I was there, I had to climb up into a subway car, as if it were a Victorian era coach. I hope that's no longer the case.
	♥ 5:42pm northguineahills: ↳ βrian @5:42 i haven't been to boston since 2002...

	🎸 ♥ 5:43pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Lever du Soleil" by "Remy Couvez" Ha at first I thought this was the EAS
	♥ 5:44pm coelacanth∅: ↳ βrian @5:42 i'm imagining guys in railroad uniforms on the platform, pushing people's butts up, onto the trains
	♥ 5:45pm βrian: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 Forgive my snark, but in my book of life, you can't reference a movie. (Yes, I've had too much coffee today.)
	♥ 5:46pm coelacanth∅: ↳ βrian @5:45 (and i, not enough)
	♥ 5:50pm βrian: … whereas you can refer to a movie. Or, to flog a tired editor, you can reference the timestamp from a transcription of a recorded conversation, BUT, you can't reference a conversation.
	5:52pm hectic: ↳ Song: "Arde Asa" by "Luis Pestana" The last few weeks havent been the same without you, fabio.
	5:53pm Uncle Monk: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 Joe Don Baker has died, so a lot of people are quoting from the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode where they riffed on the movie "Mitchell" starring Joe Don as a boorish constantly-eating cop.
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks for a fine afternoon of radio, Fabio! And look at that big, buttery moon up there!
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm Krull Sagan: ↳ βrian @5:42 to Boston? That'd definitely be the Green Line- hella old! Elif Batuman in her novel The Idiot has a hilarious passage about the Boston T (trains)- "Cars like toys but fully grown men were riding them..." or somethin Boston public transit is pretty reliable and with good coverage, in my IMHO... Drop me a line, NGH, if you're thinking about it and have any questions!
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm Bas NL: Thanks for the great DJing Fabio!
	5:55pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ northguineahills @5:40 Yeah, I guess if you get hired you could go and check it out... and keep looking for other jobs. I'm sorry to hear you are in such a tough position...you are very strong. Can you avail yourself of the shelter system?
