  10:22am
Bad Ronald:

  10:24am
annie:

  10:24am
GP:

Annie, How many records are in a "truckload"?
  10:25am
Bad Ronald:

Well all right!
  10:26am
annie:

hehe, about 25 to 30 liquor store boxes..
  10:27am
Cecile:

Nice!
I should donate some to them too...
  10:27am
stingy d:

annie- i'll take it!
  10:28am
GP:

W O W !.......hopefully you did not have to drink all of that to get those boxes......BTW, what kind of turntable do you have....and have you ever tried one of those USB convertors?
  10:28am
stingy d:

that's what i say as soon as i walk into a prosepctive new home...
  10:31am
annie:

stingy, you serious? i'm sending them down the weekend after turkey day. i admit i am a wino, i have a 50-year old turntable still works great! there's one here and we are going to convert them to cd and load them into the computer. i'm seriously thinking of doing another radio show, this time over the internet
  10:33am
PodSean:

Saw Herman Dune with Jolie Holland in Nashville on the 7th. Those guys are great.
  10:35am
GP:

Sounds good Annie.
  10:35am
Bad Ronald:

Wow, Jamie goes to some great lengths...
  10:36am
annie:

i think jolie holland has a new cd, she seesm to be doing the circuit now.
  10:36am
Doug in DC:

Annie - anyone with that many records *should* have a radio show. I've got mine back recently, and I'm having a lot of fun with it.
  10:37am
stingy d:

what would it take to get them?
  10:37am
PodSean:

She does. It's a trip. The Living and the Dead. Marc Ribot is on a few tracks.
  10:37am
Bad Ronald:

Yes, vinyl makes the world go round!
  10:38am
annie:

yeah doug, i love spinning records. my cd collection is extensive too, lost about 30 or so in a recent move.. big bummer. and stingy i can give ben my email..
  10:40am
Doug in DC:

I've lost a few in moves, too. Always ones I ended up missing a lot. The ones that got away...
  10:41am
Bad Ronald:

Are you unloading your vinyl Annie?
  10:42am
annie:

yup, i feel your pain. i once had a whole tote full of cds stolen out of my living room.. i slowly replaced them as time went by, got a knock on the door a couple years later and it was a friend of my son who had found it in a basement and knew right away it was mine... i was stoked! and the funny thing is that i only repeated three cds in replacing them.. well, ronald some of it yes.. and the 78s are up for grabs.
  10:43am
stingy d:

yea i think thats what i'm wondering too ronald.. seems much too good to be true, and i am not understadnign somethign.
  10:45am
annie:

i attempted to donate the 78s a couple years ago to fmu and got a resounding no, recently i asked again and it was yes. so i am sending them down with a friend to be picked up.. i live upstate..
  10:46am
Bad Ronald:

I'm definitely interested. Maybe we can work something out.
I gave my email to BW if you're interested...
  10:47am
bw:

seriously folks.. I can't recommend the Eggleston video at the Whitney.. one of the most amazing things I have ever seen
  10:47am
Bad Ronald:

Stingy, you want 78s too?
  10:47am
annie:

wonderful.... and i can get you my phone number, we can hash it out.
  10:48am
stingy d:

no... i'm the guy that's alwasy confused though.
  10:50am
Bad Ronald:

Cool, just wanted to make sure I'm not stepping on anyone's toes...
  10:50am
annie:

i'm tempted to come down myself and meet you guys at fmu..
  10:53am
Cecile:

honest to goodness, if I weren't taking my hub to Quebec during record fair next year, I'd say "let's have a record fair meetup!"
  10:54am
GP:

Road trip...road trip!
  10:55am
annie:

yeah, way cool
  10:55am
Cecile:

Or maybe one of those awesome free 'FMU shows next summer...
  10:56am
GP:

BW,
It sounded ok on the Windows streamer.
  10:57am
Bad Ronald:

Sounds like a good idea to me!
  10:59am
GP:

Recipe for disaster:

Take one misogynistic loner stir in a hot babysitter mix with other persons kids
  10:59am
Cecile:

that sounds like the next Judd Apatow film.
  11:00am
yazzwho:

Canton = Ohio pronounce "Cant Uhn" not "Cant Ahn" No?
  11:00am
stingy d:

http://tinyurl.com/psychadelicawheel
  11:04am
GP:

yazz.
Yea it is Canton Mississippi that he is talking about and is pronounced like the town in Ohio and we even have one in Texas.
  11:05am
bw:

so how do ya say it with a southern drawl? cantuuuhhhn?
  11:05am
poppa bmore:

ah adventure good stuff
  11:06am
annie:

this jamie guy is takin em for alot of rides
  11:06am
GP:

BW,
You got it!
  11:08am
GP:

Wait a sec...isn't Jamie still married?
  11:09am
Bad Ronald:

No, that was a scam...
  11:10am
Cecile:

The midwest and European names:

Milan Mi, and OH: MY-lan (not Meehlan)
Canton MI and OH: Can-TIN (not CAN-ton)
Toledo, Oh: TOE-lee-do (not TOE-lathe-oh)

who's Jamie?
  11:10am
annie:

the comic on the playlist cecile..
  11:10am
GP:

10-4 Bad Ron..phew...glad that is cleared up.. I had to go back and reread that part!
  11:10am
Bad Ronald:

The dude in the comic.
  11:11am
Cecile:

oh, correction (TOE-lathed-oh)
  11:11am
GP:

toe - latte - OH?
  11:12am
Cecile:

OH, got it.
I was still mixed up about Cora - I was wondering why evyeone was talking shit about Tom Cora.
  11:14am
yazzwho:

Jeez - talk about shooting from the lip. And I really OUGHT to know things like the fact that there is more than one Canton. NOW that I know more about Eggleston, I really should know. I live in Nashville fer cryin out loud. Where Lafayette is pronounced Lah-fi-ette. No reason Canton is any different. But I lived in NY/NJ for 47 years and my strangled english is pure joisy.
  11:16am
bw:

at least you can talk my fren!!!

I butcher all languages everytime I turn on the mic .. but its fun!
  11:22am
Cecile:

I think if you mangle the language with a pure heart, no one faults you.
We were in Montreal a while back, and would greet store clerks with a happy Midwestern "Bon-JOOR", and the clerks would smile and say "'Allo!"

they just knew...
  11:22am
annie:

hey stingy, you want to give me your email and we can play with vinyl, too?
  11:24am
bw:

thats what I do in Montreal!!!

I say BONJOOR and then Hello - so they see at least I try
  11:25am
stingy d:

hey annie - it sounds like neverending happiness. but if it is 78's i am going to bow out and we can have fun later when i give out free maple candies.
  11:27am
annie:

word, stingy; i also have alot of 70's and pop vinyl i do not want..
  11:30am
GP:

mmm.pop vinyl...wished I lived closer Annie. I would take you up on that offer as well.
  11:31am
annie:

i'll tell you what i'll do.. once i get it all in one place and catalogued, i put a shout out. i know a great shipper who will do me right for sending em..
  11:35am
north guinea hills:

being at work sucks......

looking forward to a 3 hour lunch break....
  11:36am
Bad Ronald:

Wow Annie, Parq was right, you are a prize!

Did you get my email address?
  11:37am
Cecile:

DHL was the worst shipping company.
It seemed like they just booted the packages off the truck while the truck was moving.
  11:37am
annie:

i just checked.. not yet did you send? i think ben will do it after his show.
  11:39am
Bad Ronald:

No, I do not have yours but I did send it to bw via the playlist. I'll sit tight. Thanks!
  11:40am
annie:

ok, i just reposted it for ben..
  11:43am
stingy d:

here is my email for annie too, to continue the annie dialogue... we are making the dj do all the work.. hope you don't mind walkman.
  11:44am
Bad Ronald:

Cool me too. Yeah thanks Benjamen!
  11:45am
Jody:

Nice show today, Bwalk!
  11:46am
stingy d:

is the syrup cibo matto's little sisters?
  11:48am
annie:

hopefully this will work out for fmu overall, cause i can just give em what's left for the next record show.
  11:51am
north guinea hills:

holy smith, i'm still alive, thanks to you benjamen. sorry, i'll probably miss liz's show b/c of my much needed 3 hour lunch break....
  11:59am
Bad Ronald:

Oh no your signature sign-off!
  12:00pm
bzul:

Download/refresh too much...a real connection killer. Comic crossin' me up like a crapgame under a streetlight with a stutter, while the tune train is tossin' me off every fifteeen seconds at Quit City. Music and dark poignant story just out of reach, like a swell sandwich sitting a yard away from a sucker with a 32-inch reach. Full of hate -- for all playlists, and I want to hurt them as bad as they've hurt me.
