Has anyone seen my remote control?

♥ 8:50am duke:

@Uncle It's under the couch

8:50am glenn:

it's under the snow in my yard.

♥ 8:50am Doug Schulkind:

Way to ruin everyone's fun Glenn. My show is really gonna suck now. Duke, if you find Nemo, sauté him with capers and onions. You'll always be #2 in my heart, Holland Oats. Uncle Michael, we gotta stop meeting like this.

8:51am glenn:

i'm a bad man.

♥ 8:52am Doug Schulkind:

Oh you crazy rebel you.

♥ 8:52am Uncle Michael:

No, Doug...we don't. Thanks, Duke.

♥ 8:56am Doug Schulkind:

Don't...stop..don't..stop.don't.stop....don't stop!

♥ 8:56am Uncle Michael:

I can't stop. Sometimes I wonder...

♥ 8:57am Artie:

Saucy in here this morning.

8:57am Va Van:

Good morning Doug. What's the flash link again for GTDR? MY PC got re-imaged and I lost everything :(

8:58am glenn:

oh my god, this is terrible, whatever nachum's playing right now.

♥ 8:59am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning VA Van. Here it is:

www.wfmu.org...

♥ 8:59am Doug Schulkind:

Hi Artie!

8:59am Va Van:

Wunderbar! Danke!

8:59am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

♥ 9:00am Uncle Michael:

Who IS the bass player we just were listening to??

9:02am Va Van:

I haven't even caught up with Tuesday's show yet. Is that a sin?

9:02am annie:

signing in on a diff computer, forgot username.. no biggie. i get to listen for a while this am. good morning everyone. i spent a very nice evening at the wake of a friend. beautiful evening.

♥ 9:02am βrian:

Hola from the isthmus. We're sending some of our snow your way ...

♥ 9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Morning to you, ndob! Wish I knew, Uncle Michael. That track was by Kabbala, a (mostly) African electro band from NYC back in the mid-'80s.

What's the rush, Va Van?

♥ 9:03am Doug Schulkind:

Hello dear Annie! Greetings βrian!

9:03am Parq:

Where the hell are my mukluks?

9:03am Parq:

How the hell do you spell "mukluks"?

♥ 9:04am βrian:

Is that really a shot of Boston on the playlist header?

9:05am glenn:

chicago. www.theatlantic.com...

♥ 9:05am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
No. It is from Chicago earlier this winter. Used here for entertainment purposes only...

♥ 9:06am Uncle Michael:

More than two drizzles and your playing with it.

9:08am Va Van:

Gathered around the WFMU GTDR GTDS endless musical fire to stay aurally warm. Winter? Bah we say!

♥ 9:08am Uncle Michael:

I cannot read "mukluks" and not have The Vestibules in my head.

9:09am glenn:

do you mean radio free vestibule?

♥ 9:10am Doug Schulkind:

Let's all take off our socks and stick our feet near it.

Or, alternatively, have a mukluk:
authenticcanadianmukluks.com...

♥ 9:13am Uncle Michael:

@glenn Know you not "Bulbous Bouffant" by The Vestibules?

♥ 9:14am listener james from westwood:

good friday, all, and hello, doug! a touch late due to a bit of pre-storm chili-fixin's shopping and getting the parents prepped for any loss of power, and now it's just fmu, work, and eventual chili.

9:15am glenn:

alas, i am desolate. i know it not.

♥ 9:16am Uncle Michael:

I would direct you to a youtube animation for it but I think that for the first exposure, it should be audio-only. I think the visuals undermine the theatre of the mind.

♥ 9:16am listener james from westwood:

@uncle michael: macadamia

9:16am annie:

this is beautiful!!

9:16am Paul Sherratt:

Is there a fan club for ' Unidentified Artist(s) ' ?

9:17am glenn:

i can heartily recommend this, however, www.youtube.com...

♥ 9:17am Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
Speaking of eventual chili, do you remember the restaurant in lower Manhattan called Exterminator Chili? They served their dishes in three degrees of hotness: residential, commercial and industrial.

9:17am ndbob:

Indeed Annie!..... and a little freezing fog this morning - 4 to 8 inches of snow possible on Sunday

♥ 9:18am Uncle Michael:

@James...YES!

9:18am ndbob:

@Doug sounds like my kind of place ... North Dakota food is known for its blandness

♥ 9:18am listener james from westwood:

lol, sounds like someplace i'd have been into trying! i understand the cluck u. wings chain has a hot-wing sauce you have to sign a waiver to eat.

9:19am ðcp:

annie! Drummer Some! everyone else!!

♥ 9:19am Doug Schulkind:

Give the Drummer Some is NOT suspending flights to the Northeast today. And our schools are still open. And our shelves are full of bread and milk.

♥ 9:19am listener james from westwood:

@uncle michael, i first heard that one on the dearly departed greasy kid stuff show. so much awesomeness for adults and tykes alike.

9:20am glenn:

i thought so. the vestibules and radio free vestibule are the same dudes.

9:21am ðcp:

ug. I have to deal with NOT being in the middle of a blizzard for the next few days. GREAT. Don't know when the last time I went sledding.

9:23am ndbob:

When there are large snowstorms here the main issue is bus transportation to rural areas - all rural students have an in-town buddy they are assigned to stay with if the buses can't get students home

♥ 9:23am Doug Schulkind:

Strap in for this vocal performance from the Jaipur school. An 18-minute epic from Pandit Mallikarjun Mansur.

♥ 9:25am βrian:

Are you from the ethmus, ðcp?

♥ 9:25am Doug Schulkind:

I just received the strangest email from Amazon.com:

"Dear Doug Schulkind,

We thought you'd like to know that eligible songs from "The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4" by Guthrie, Woody, a CD you purchased in 1999, are being added to your Cloud Player library. This means that high-quality MP3 versions of these songs are available for you to play or download from Cloud Player for FREE. You can find your songs in the "Purchased" playlist. Please note that some songs from the above CD are not eligible for this feature and may not be available in your Cloud Player library."

I guess I should be chuffed that Amazon is giving me free shit, but FUCK YOU for remembering what I bought in 1999.

No what i mean?

9:26am ðcp:

I got a similar email--freaked me out

♥ 9:26am Alex In Illinois:

Doug, YES I do remember Exterminator Chili from when I lived and worked in New York in the late 1980's. Where I worked was 1 block north of Canal on Broadway, so it was an easy walk to Exterminator Chili

♥ 9:27am listener james from westwood:

i barely remember what i bought last year, much last 1999. that's helpful yet creepy.

♥ 9:27am duke:

I got a similar e-mail from them listing songs from albums I had totally forgotten about.

9:27am ðcp:

I'm from Kentucky via Pennsylvania if that qualifies as "ethmus"

♥ 9:28am Uncle Michael:

Yeah, Doug. I got the Amazon email a week or so ago. I thought it was great. *shrug*

♥ 9:28am Alex In Illinois:

@glenn
Thanks for that link to the shots of that fire in Chicago a few weeks ago. I live at the edge of Chicago, and I heard about the fire on the Radio, but I never knew there were such excellent photos of it.

♥ 9:29am Uncle Michael:

Made me think...yeah...I remember buying CDs.

9:29am annie:

bob, that is so cool!! it's great how we all adapt to regional needs, coming together.... .. last night the room was full of drumming, sitar, guitar...

♥ 9:29am duke:

ðcp - does that qualify as Pensyltucky

♥ 9:29am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug & acolytes. Did Amazon exist in the last century?

Hey Paul. Likin' Mr Eaglesmith. I hear Various Artists have broken up but there is now a tribute band formed in their wake.

9:29am glenn:

they're very beautiful in an eerie, icy way.

♥ 9:30am Doug Schulkind:

Warm and toasties to Alex and ðcp!

9:30am Parq:

Okay, I'm going to work. If I'm not back on the playlist by 11 AM, send out a St. Bernard with a cask of whiskey. If you can think of another way to send the whiskey, you can skip the dog.

♥ 9:30am Alex In Illinois:

I noticed a few of you planning to have chili during the storm. YEsterday on the Cajun Medicine show on WVKR, Dr. Romo said the same thing "Bread and Milk? I'm having chili!"

♥ 9:30am Uncle Michael:

If Doug plays any Pandit Pran Nath I'll have to brag on my Uncle Jim again.

♥ 9:32am Doug Schulkind:

Alas no Pran Nath today, UM. But I surely could have.

♥ 9:33am Uncle Michael:

Whew. The reflected light off my Uncle's accomplishments makes my eyes water. I wish I had more of my own.

♥ 9:33am Doug Schulkind:

I just hate the bullshit glorifying of the virtual over the real. The cloud can suck my virtual ass.

♥ 9:34am Brian in UK:

Gaud - Gaudete - Steeleye Span - Maddy Prior

♥ 9:34am Uncle Michael:

Here's the film he produced about Pran Nath. You can save the link for dessert. www.youtube.com...

♥ 9:35am Doug Schulkind:

Oh sweet, thanks UM!

♥ 9:35am Alex In Illinois:

@βrian, which isthmus? Are you in Madison Wisconsin?

9:35am glenn:

i bet i'm the only person here who's never bought anything from amazon.

♥ 9:37am Uncle Michael:

I don't give a shit if my ones and zeroes are on a CD, my hard drive or in the so-called cloud. I hate buying CDs just to rip them and then put them with Speilberg's Ark of the Covenant. I love my vinyl but I try not to fetishize it too much.

9:37am Shaun:

If I was signed in if be hitting favourite so hard it'd knock Ken out of bed

♥ 9:38am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Steeleye Span's "Little Sir Hugh" just played on the stream about eight minutes before GTDS started!

♥ 9:38am Uncle Michael:

YW for the link Doug. I think you'll dig it.

♥ 9:38am βrian:

@Alex. But of course! Thith ith the Isthmus.

♥ 9:38am Doug Schulkind:

Shaun's comment: Favorited!

♥ 9:41am βrian:

I'm such a lowbrow! I keep thinking of paneer masala.

♥ 9:42am Uncle Michael:

Doug punts the playlist! Pran Nath...

9:43am Va Van:

I missed Steeleye Span? Rats.

♥ 9:43am Artie:

Ken sleeps? The machines remember so we won't have to. I'll host my own cloud, thank you very much.

♥ 9:43am Uncle Michael:

That's nice of you Doug...thank you. Jim would thank you if he were here.

9:43am still b/p:

Nemo = omen.
An omen...that I will shovel not once but many times today. Until I plead, "No mo'!"
Few inches and counting. "Stay home" advisory has been issued by the bummermeisters.
Good fluffy morning, all.

9:44am ðcp:

now's the time to get out on the mountain bike still b/p

♥ 9:45am Uncle Michael:

It's really just the time to lay in a hefty supply of Little Debbies.

9:47am deeseepat:

how much snow PGH gettin, Doug?

9:47am glenn:

i'm with you, s b/p. i've shoveled 3 times since 6:30 this morning.

♥ 9:48am Uncle Michael:

You guys should do what I did. I bought a snow blower two years ago and we've had about four inches of snow since then.

♥ 9:48am listener james from westwood:

if they called the cloud "storing data somewhere else," consultants couldn't charge $500/hr selling it to CTOs who don't want to be seen as unhip. for the love of god, think of the poor starving consultants. :/

♥ 9:49am listener james from westwood:

when is it ever not the time to lay in a cache of little debbie's?

♥ 9:50am listener james from westwood:

the snow came on hard early, but quickly eased back to tiny, pretty flakes being driven by the wind down here in northern nj. it's windy here but not icy icy cold out. snow's sticking to turf but melting on macadam. i'm sure that will change.

♥ 9:51am Doug Schulkind:

@deeseepat
An inch or less.

@still b/p
I am going to physical therapy twice a week for my back after a "shoveling incident" a few weeks back (weak's back).

9:51am still b/p:

Don't know if they'll be out today, but god bless 'em, I see pedalers out regularly in pretty tough conditions. I'd worry about A) falling down every 30 feet, and B) salty slop eating my mount out from under me. Bike parked 'til clear-street season.
But I am planning to get out in the woods for a couple of days as of Monday. So the fresh stuff am GOOD.

♥ 9:52am listener james from westwood:

for laters/while chowing chili, i have white heat and the original scarface from netflix & the latest parks & rec (an hour ep iirc). as long as power holds out, i'll be sitting pretty.

9:55am ndbob:

Not much snow so far this year - probably less then a foot total - the problem is that it stays around for months - rarely makes it above freezing all winter

♥ 9:56am Hugo:

The music of Terje Isungset would fit well with the playlist illustration.

www.icemusic.no...

9:57am Paul Sherratt:

Was surprised to be ( quietly ) singing along to ' I'm S-A-V-E-D ' last Monday when that good man, Hank Wangford, brought his show to town and used the song for the encore.

♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind:

Well looky here, Hugo and Paul Sherratt!

♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind:

Coming next...

New Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...new Alasdair Roberts alert...

You get the idea...

10:04am glenn:

so doug, is there to going to be some new alasdair roberts soon?

♥ 10:05am Doug Schulkind:

Naw, just pulling your leg. (Naw, THAT was just pulling your leg.)

♥ 10:05am listener james from westwood:

what i wouldn't give for some new alasdair roberts today.

10:07am Paul Sherratt:

... new Alasdair Roberts and his pals arrived last weekend. Grand. Brian UK, are you tempted to see him at The Lexington in April ?

10:09am glenn:

got any good snow shoveling music?

10:11am glenn:

uhhh. a parlor guitar is not a style of playing, it's a model, or maybe a size, of guitar.

10:13am glenn:

www.theloar.com...

10:13am still b/p:

Shoveling music -- The Drifters? ("Under the BlizzWhack")

10:15am tom shad:

will you play some Butch Morris ?

♥ 10:16am Jeff Golick:

This is nice.

♥ 10:19am Doug Schulkind:

@Glenn
You are not incorrect that there is a particular model of guitar that is called a parlor guitar, but (according to many sources, including the liners to "Rural Parlor Guitar"), it is also a style and repertoire of a certain style of finger-picked instrumental playing.

@Tom Shad
I don't have any Butch M cued up for today's show. I am not much of a "memorial" programmer, though I dearly loved Butch and his music. (That said, some times I DO play music of a recently departed artist. Not sure what leads me to do or not. I just follow my heart.)

@Jeff Golick
You are nice. Especially when there are four of you simultaneously.

♥ 10:20am Hugo:

Rova doing Terry Riley? Intriguing and works, too.

♥ 10:21am Artie:

My goodness how I love a saxophone quartet!

10:22am glenn:

my apologies.

♥ 10:22am Doug Schulkind:

I guess a part of me feels unhappy with the opportunistic aspect to memorial broadcasts. (Though of course I applaud WKCR's amazing efforts.) I contradict myself because I sometimes do it. With Pete LaRoca most recently and Marion Brown last year. I guess if I just feel compelled to do it, I will feature a dearly departed artist. Butch Morris is surely that.

♥ 10:24am Jeff Golick:

(FWIW, there will be some Lawrence D. "Butch" Morris played on the next D:O Show...)

10:26am Parq:

Made it. Mostly wet out there in NYC, see? I think our snowpocalypse is supposed to start tonight.

♥ 10:26am Hugo:

Kurt Gottschalk did a three-hour special last Friday:

www.wfmu.org...

♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind:

D:O Radio airs every Monday at noon, here on the Drummer Stream. New shows alternate weeks with rebroadcasts. You can access all the archives of previous (amazing, wonderful, spectacular) shows here:

wfmu.org...

♥ 10:28am Jeff Golick:

@Hugo: holy mackerel - that Gottschalk show...he went ALL OUT.

♥ 10:29am Uncle Michael:

I never feel opportunistic about honoring a departed artist. In fact, it would be easier not to bother. They all have birthdays every year but they only die once and often, attention should be paid. Usually it's the acknowledgement and one track....just to say it matters. That's how it is for me.

♥ 10:31am Doug Schulkind:

Paying tribute is always OK. Absolutely.

♥ 10:37am Doug Schulkind:

I miss Sam Rivers.

♥ 10:38am Jeff Golick:

Wait: are the drums soulful or greasy...

10:38am Va Van:

Both. And ALL NEW in 1964

♥ 10:39am Jeff Golick:

WORD. (re Rivers.)

♥ 10:39am Alex In Illinois:

This has one sexy sassy Saxxy set!

♥ 10:40am Alex In Illinois:

I meant:
This has been one sexy sassy saxxy set!

♥ 10:40am Uncle Michael:

I love this cut.

♥ 10:40am Doug Schulkind:

Oh no, Alex. We KNOW what you meant.

10:41am still b/p:

I have a confession: a moment ago I had to listen for two minutes to something else as soon as I read about it and said, "Say what?"-- a track from Bryan Ferry's release of 1920s instrumental jazz versions of his own songs.

♥ 10:42am Uncle Michael:

Say what?

♥ 10:42am Jeff Golick:

@b/p: that's a weird one, eh?

10:43am glenn:

some good news - www.thestar.com...

♥ 10:45am Uncle Michael:

@glenn I live here in the land of WBC and my wife actually works with one of the separatist Phelpses...an aunt to the two young women that are getting all the press.

10:47am Va Van:

Think I'll go hop on a MegaBus headed to NYC to play in the snow.

Not.

10:48am still b/p:

I checked Do The Strand. Fun. Have to listen more to see if it's worth more than a novelty dip.

♥ 10:49am Matt from Springfield:

Howdy Doug and Drumheads!
Plenty of liquid snow outside in VA!

10:50am ndbob:

greetings Matt!

♥ 10:51am Doug Schulkind:

Holler to you, Matt from Springfield!

♥ 10:53am Matt from Springfield:

Greets, Bob!
Not Holier-than-thou, but rather Holler-TO-thou, Doug!

♥ 10:53am Doug Schulkind:

Wow, that's deep, Uncle Michael. Does everyone just pretend that Aunt Phelps is a regular person at work who has an unmentioned "hobby" on the weekends?

10:56am Parq:

Loving this Brass Band track. Tempted to start dancing around with an umbrella. Oh wait, haven't got an umbrella ...

10:56am Va Van:

The Boston BlizCam www.boston.com...

10:56am still b/p:

I can't go out, I can't go out, I can't go out for the shovel start when the accumulation of good sounds is so significant inside.

♥ 10:57am Doug Schulkind:

@Va Van
Is there sound with that BlizCam? (I will click the link if no audio.)

10:58am kat330:

Hello, Doug! [and re: your 9:25] Yep, we got the same missives from AMZ a few days ago. A bit weird indeed.

And @still b/p: [@9:43] Damn, that nemo/omen bit was going to be my opening line when I arrived. You stole my blizzard. ;)

10:59am Va Van:

I don't hear anything...but it does have a commercial that plays first that I didn't listen to...I mean I don't know if it had sound or not but probably does

♥ 11:00am Doug Schulkind:

Can someone please explain to me how Pittsburgh could be listed as the 4th most literate American city (www.huffingtonpost.com...) when there are NO GODDDAMMED BOOKSORES here!!??

♥ 11:00am Matt from Springfield:

@kat: still b/p certainly stole the thunder from your...thunderblizzard.
Hi kat!

♥ 11:01am Uncle Michael:

Let me clarify. By Separatist, I mean she's one that left the clan years ago and has been dead to them ever since.

♥ 11:02am Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: No "booksores" should be a good thing, it means the readers are reading out and about, and not sleeping in their own books and getting sores :)

♥ 11:02am Uncle Michael:

As far as I know, she's the only one that left the "church" but didn't leave town.

♥ 11:02am Matt from Springfield:

@UM: Actually that's what I thought you meant.

11:02am ndbob:

Hey kat!

♥ 11:03am Matt from Springfield:

Soweto rock!

11:04am still b/p:

kat -- Sorry. Robert Frost wrote about that...Copping My Words on a Snowy Thieving.

♥ 11:04am Carmichael:

Greetings Doug and Friendship Society members.

11:04am kat330:

Hey, Matt and Hey, Bob! Having trouble with the stream on my Grace. I'm Grace-less...

11:05am kat330:

Wow, it's like a trio arriving for rehearsal the same time -- Matt, Carm & me. :)

11:06am ndbob:

heya Carmichael!

♥ 11:07am Jeff Golick:

@Doug: maybe it's because you all are the only ones who can still spell Pittsberg correctly?

♥ 11:08am Alex In Illinois:

I think there are other WBC apostates. At the Reason Rally in D. C. last spring, there was a son of Phelps who had left, speaking about being brough up in an environment of fear and hate.

♥ 11:08am Matt from Springfield:

@kat: Then what should we be called? CarmaKat Matt?
Maybe not a band name, but 'twould work for the label name...

11:09am kat330:

Carmatkat?

♥ 11:09am Doug Schulkind:

Hiya kat330!!

Did I really type "booksores"? Sheesh. That further proves that the list is wrong wrong wrong.

11:10am VA(n):

I'm just Van

♥ 11:11am Doug Schulkind:

Hey Carmichael!

♥ 11:11am Alex In Illinois:

Maybe Pittsburgh is so literate because most of the industries have shrunk with the exception of the University communities. And maybe many of these readers are students who find it more economical to check out books form libraries. Just a theory.

11:11am kat330:

I can't get the FMU stream on the Grace either. Esp. annoying now that we've lost the remote for the Squeezebox -- but at least it's bringing me the streams.

11:12am glenn:

honestly, is there a better post shoveling snack than toasted crumpets with butter and smuckers strawberry jam?

11:12am kat330:

How much you shoveling, glenn?

♥ 11:12am Matt from Springfield:

@VA: You're so Van. You probably think that handle's about you.
@kat: Carmatkatica.

♥ 11:13am Matt from Springfield:

@glenn: Isn't a crumpet basically an English muffin?

11:13am kat330:

@still b/p: Earphones that can extend some way outside? Because it's certainly easier on the back to shovel as it arrives rather than after it's all down.

♥ 11:13am Uncle Michael:

Kat, any number of smartphone apps will let you forget that you lost your remote.

11:14am glenn:

4th time this morning. probably 3" each time.

♥ 11:14am Doug Schulkind:

@Alex
Your theory would be a good one (surely it is a good one) if there were at least some decent university bookstores here, but there ain't.

♥ 11:15am Uncle Michael:

The Joe Dukes is proving more elusive than I had expected.

11:15am kat330:

@UM: Funny thing about that was wishing we could call our SB remote so we might find it! We don't own a smartphone, btw, but that miguel be its best advantage for something that size

♥ 11:15am Carmichael:

Quite a lot of posts on a sunny Friday morning here in Jerry Brown Town. Hi kat, Matt, Bob, and the whole Hee Haw gang.

♥ 11:15am Alex In Illinois:

@kat330
Your squeezebox has a remote!? (See my avatar)

11:16am Andrew:

A crumpet is more like a small thick pancake. But drier and crispier, and toasted.

11:16am glenn:

NO!!!!! they're both excellent, but completely different.

11:17am kat330:

@Alex: Yeah, not that sort of Squeezebox -- yours is far more mollusk! :)

♥ 11:18am Brian in UK:

Pancakes -NO. Galettes - YES.

♥ 11:18am Matt from Springfield:

@Andrew/glenn: A bit sweeter than a muffin then?

11:20am Andrew:

No, quite savoury - until you cover it in jam. Though my dad its them with butter and salt.

♥ 11:20am Matt from Springfield:

Hi Carm!

11:20am kat330:

This song's a sequel to "Are You Cookin' Beans?"

♥ 11:21am Brian in UK:

Paul I was not ignoring you, just freezing my nuts off in the woods but that's another story. In answer to your question no idea!

11:21am Unclear on the concept:

This is another one of those songs that you could take more than one way.

♥ 11:21am Doug Schulkind:

Trying to find that Joe Dukes, UM. Can't remember where I got it...

♥ 11:22am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy Andrew!

11:22am kat330:

@Brian: Well now you'll just have to roast your chestnuts on an open fire.

11:23am kat330:

Not every old blues song is double entrendre, but 95% are.

11:23am Andrew:

Good afternoon!

11:23am Van in DC:

kat is that you in your avatar? I bring my snow pic back. Old snowmageddon, meet new one...

♥ 11:24am Uncle Michael:

Hee! I spun Butcher Pete very recently. I love this shit. I think I have it on the Bump Jump Jive comps.

♥ 11:25am Carmichael:

Hey Doug, did you get out of the music blogspot e-mail group business? Or am I just out of the club?

11:25am kat330:

@Van: Yes, I rotated this one in in honor of Nemo. Moi in Vermont some many moons ago. From a proofsheet of photos taken by my landlady (at her request, not mine).

11:25am glenn:

kat, is that an old blues song in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me? -

♥ 11:26am Brian in UK:

Whacking & meat in the same song. Oh matron.

11:26am kat330:

I like the dogs frolicking in the snow in the background. It was below zero on that day.

♥ 11:28am Uncle Michael:

Pete's a Maine Yak.

11:28am Van in DC:

So, snowmageddon...? snowpocalypse... snowpocalypse...? snowmageddon...aaaaaaaaand I'm out to have lunch with a friend up from Dallas. Thanks Doug, bye all!

♥ 11:28am Doug Schulkind:

@Carmichael
I am delinquent (so far) this week. A little oral surgery set me back. Hope to get a newsletter/Motherlode out tomorrow. Are you getting my stream email alerts? If so, you are still on the list.

11:29am kat330:

Bye, Van! Stay warm!

♥ 11:29am Matt from Springfield:

Have a good weekend Van!

11:29am kat330:

@Matt: Hey, tell us about your fancy-shmancy meal last night!

11:29am Parq:

Kat, I had to open your profile pic up full to see it properly. In thumbnail form, it looked like you in an elevator with a pair of long haired dachshunds. Dox lover that I am, I was a little disappointed to learn the truth.

♥ 11:30am Doug Schulkind:

Bye Van!

Love those Bump comps, UM. I have it on "Nasty Rhythm 'n' Blues" as well.

♥ 11:30am Brian in UK:

@ Hugo Kurt's programme was good last week I had trouble with 'Overcome Babylon' though.

♥ 11:30am Doug Schulkind:

Wait, Parq's here? I better break out the GOOD shit!

♥ 11:32am Uncle Michael:

Anyone ever use soundsbox.com?

hrftudc.soundsbox.com...

♥ 11:32am Matt from Springfield:

Tiny Davis, OTOH, sounds VERY entendre-ish!

11:32am kat330:

@Parq: Aw, sorry to disappoint. :) Those were also the landcouple's dogs. We had a couple of kitties with us up in the attic of their 150-yr-old house. The room we used as a kitchen was wallpapered entirely in glamor shots of H-wood stars from the 30s-40s, taken from magazines.

11:33am kat330:

Not I, UM.

11:35am kat330:

Butcher Pete and Race Horse -- hm, anyone else hear how DNA testing in England showed horsemeat in the burgers of ?? Burger King?

♥ 11:35am Matt from Springfield:

@kat: My choice on a prix fixe menu--Caesar salad with handmade croutons, a Chilean sea bass with basmati rice and very freshly chopped spinach, tomatoes and garlic, and two mini creme brulees, chocolate and berry flavored. All at $35 per person!

I found out once I got there that this was a promo for "Restaurant Week", so it sounds like the relatively new Monty's Steakhouse soon may be recognized in Washingtonian's "Best of Virginia" or some list like that.

♥ 11:37am AndrewC.:

kat330 - Tesco (a supermarket)

♥ 11:37am AndrewC.:

Though they've now found ready made beef lasagne that is 100% horsemeat.

♥ 11:38am Carmichael:

Doug, I haven't received ANY mail from you for about 3 weeks. That's why I asked.

11:38am Paul Sherratt:

Brian,
It's ok, I knew that you'd be going down to the woods today... echo of Val Rosing ... and I've no idea either !

♥ 11:38am Matt from Springfield:

"Document Records: An Emporium of Shittogetherness".

11:38am kat330:

Mmmmm, sounds mouth-watering, Matt!

@AndrewC: Ewwww, disgusting.

11:38am glenn:

meh. lots of people eat horse.

11:39am glenn:

i mean, package it as such, but still.

11:39am kat330:

Apt that they were testing at Tesco.

♥ 11:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Carmichael
This is an outrage. I must flog (again) my unpaid intern. Please email me again so I can check for you on the list (and re-add you if something's amiss).

♥ 11:40am Uncle Michael:

Damn those unflogged interns.

♥ 11:40am Doug Schulkind:

@Matt from Springfield
I'm sure Document will want to put that on a banner across their website.

11:41am kat330:

@glenn: Yes, truth in advertising is the point.

11:43am ndbob:

@kat Yep - I've been following the horsemeat story

♥ 11:43am Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: In gold lettering, on a deep red background.

@glenn: Processed lasagna made of horse makes me think of the cartoons where a horse (or any other animal) goes into a machine, and little packages of processed food come out. One step closer to that freaky vision...

♥ 11:44am Brian in UK:

@Paul Have you heard that Dorothy Oxenford (Listen with Mother) passed away recently.

♥ 11:45am Brian in UK:

They found a filled tooth in some sausages the other day.

♥ 11:45am Doug Schulkind:

@Uncle Michael
I found the link for the Joe Dukes, but when you click on the Mediafire, it says "Files Belongs to a Suspended Account."

♥ 11:46am Brian in UK:

@Doug 'Unpaid intern' - Oxymoron.

11:47am kat330:

I mean, there are people probably fine with eating pig anus, but it's a kindness to those who are not to tell customers their calamari is turf not surf.

♥ 11:47am Brian in UK:

They found a arse in Downing Street.

♥ 11:47am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Boy IS my intern a moron!

11:48am kat330:

@Brian: :)

♥ 11:48am Carmichael:

Done, Doug!

♥ 11:49am AndrewC.:

Why didn't they find the horse meat in the lasagne sooner?...

...

The used mask-a-pony cheese.

11:50am kat330:

Ohhhh....that one hurt, Andrew.

♥ 11:51am Matt from Springfield:

@Andrew: Hmm, I should check these cannoli now. They may be masking pony in here too...

♥ 11:51am Brian in UK:

Oooh Andrew the old ones are the best. Is that a Gloucester Old Spot?

11:51am glenn:

oh man. that's not very NEIGHbourly.

♥ 11:51am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for giving it the old college try, Doug.

♥ 11:51am Matt from Springfield:

In the meantime, play it safe everyone, and stick to mask-a-pony and cheese (Mask n' Cheese).

♥ 11:52am Matt from Springfield:

Sweet bass on this!

♥ 11:52am AndrewC.:

I think it is an old spot. Taken at the local petting zoo.

11:53am kat330:

Andrew, your pork actually gets smaller when clicking on it to make it bigger (and, NO, no double entendre in any of that sentence).

♥ 11:55am Brian in UK:

Nowt wrong with horse meat. I draw the line at rodents. Vicuna in the basket anyone.

♥ 11:55am Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: I think you should come up to JC for the Marathon, and form an ad hoc Triumvirate with Clay Pigeon and Meghan McKee. Why's that? Because I noticed that those DJs and/or their commenters are among the most "punny" in the FMcommUnity. Putting all of you together on a single show will cause a critical mass of puns to be reached, and will wash verbal energy all over the world. Which I can only assume would be a good thing.

11:55am ndbob:

not to mention buffalo burgers - it does feel strange eating a buffalo burger while looking at a buffalo

11:56am ndbob:

some rodents are considered delicacies in some places

11:56am kat330:

Wow, the ol' clock on the wall is saying it's that time again. Miss the Steinski afterglow hour... Thanks, Sir Doug!! Have a great weekend, chili not chilly for all!

♥ 11:58am Uncle Michael:

Great show per usual, Doug. Thank you.

♥ 11:58am Brian in UK:

Good job as ever, Doug. Do not rest on your laurels, someone might eat them.

11:58am ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

♥ 11:58am Doug Schulkind:

@Matt from SPringfield
I hope to be back to JC for part of the Marathon!

♥ 11:59am Uncle Michael:

Pass the bay leaf.

11:59am glenn:

the underwater drum stool, with clay spinning tracks of wax.

♥ 11:59am Jeff Golick:

woo!

♥ 12:00pm Doug Schulkind:

I had a gas playing records with use guys today!

♥ 12:00pm Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: Cool! Maybe the punuclear explosion won't happen, but combining you and other FMU personalities is always a good thing!

♥ 12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

I now officially love "punuclear."

♥ 12:01pm Matt from Springfield:

I second Brian in UK! :)
Fantastic show, perking us up despite the dreary weather outside! Have a safe and great weekend, everyone!

♥ 12:02pm Uncle Michael:

See use all later.

♥ 12:02pm listener james from westwood:

many thanks, doug; a lovely pre-storm serenade!

♥ 12:03pm Matt from Springfield:

Take my word, please!

12:05pm still b/p:

Nooo! Now I've shoveled and deserve soup, trophies and real-time DJ muuuuusic!
See you in the aftermath.

♥ 12:06pm Matt from Springfield:

GTDR's comin' into Los Ang-e-lees? Sweet!
