Good morning and happy birthday Ken. Or happy "observed" birthday, whatever.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:01am From: Ghengis Jung

Good Morning!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:01am From: Parq

It's about time you turned 50! Bring on the CW.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:01am From: Cribley

It's Ken's birthday in Canada.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:01am From: Vicki

erm

Wed. 2/11/09 9:02am From: Maggie in Rock Tavern

Happy 50th Ken - probably see you at some point during the marathon.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:02am From: chris

I love the smell of corn weenies in the morning.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:03am From: texas scott

Happy Birthday,Ken!
Corn weenies UNITE!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:05am From: BSI

THE COMPUTER PROBLEM MUST NOT WIN!!!!!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:06am From: Mac

Happy Corn Weenies to you,
Happy Corn Weenies to you
Happy Corn Weenies to you Ken,
Happy Corn Weenies to you.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:07am From: Ghengis Jung

Nachum should stick around more often!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:07am From: listener mark

Happy Birthday Ken
Good Morning Everyone

Wed. 2/11/09 9:09am From: dei xhrist

Soon-Ra? Is that the Korean woman that Chester Brown draws, with the theory of interstellar return?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:09am From: chris

We'll know the computer problem is solved when it starts singing "Dasiy" right?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:10am From: HAL 9000

You're getting over-excited, Ken. Stressing your system this way at age 50 could endanger the station's mission. Don't you think? Just a moment...just a moment... a problem up on the tower...way up. You should probably climb up there to make repairs.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:11am From: Ken

Hello all! Didn't Nachum pull out a great song?!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:11am From: Parq

Whoa, this is really cool. I turned the radio on before turning the puter audio off, and what with the lag, the two feeds are in synch rhythmically. The effect is, well, very FMU.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:11am From: Eric

Hey, this Jimmy Bell is good! Maybe Nachum should always choose your music? He could be like your personal music director.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:12am From: Ghengis Jung

Is it 15 minutes long?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:12am From: dei x

yes. now I will adjust my food pyramid accordingly.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:12am From: Swami

Hey, it's both my kids b-days this week too! Happy B day Ken, Gabriel, and Jack!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:13am From: Ghengis Jung

Jimmy Bell (10:56)

That should give you enough time to fix the problem...

Wed. 2/11/09 9:14am From: Ken

I know! Nachum coulda picked out a 3 minute song but he picked this! WHat a guy. No pics today, sorry. no sleep, no pics. Thjanks for the observed birthday wishes!!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:15am From: Cecile

Ken, as annie says, life begins at 50.
Tell me what it's like, I'm gointgto be there sooner than I like.

corn weenie!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:15am From: matchmaker

Have you kids met?

Jimmy Bell....Suzie Q.
Suzie, Jimmy.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:16am From: Negator

Is Jimmy Bell in town? HB, Ken.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:19am From: BSI

Ken -- This is the only pic you'll need, for today.
I shot this one at home to celebrate the opening of DC's first Target store. It was a weird day.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:19am From: Ghengis Jung

Ken, Nachum may have been onto something with the Sooooon Ra - he might have pulled a sidelong track and set you up for a lengthy troubleshooting session...

Wed. 2/11/09 9:20am From: Ghengis Jung

Are those corn dogs sitting on the ark of the covenant?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:20am From: gavin

haha. tasteful, sir.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:21am From: BSI

goddammit, those corn dogs ARE the ark of the covenant!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:21am From: Negator

YEAAAAHHHHH! 50 YO MAN!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:22am From: Cupcake Dog

Will there be Corn Weenie cupcakes today?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:22am From: Schlangemann

Die Himmel ist schön, Du bist schön. Supergut! HB!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:22am From: Mark E. Smith

Wed. 2/11/09 9:23am From: dc pat

WhARrrrYAgonDObourrit?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:25am From: dc pat

this part just kills me...

Wed. 2/11/09 9:25am From: Bronwyn C.

Hi, Ken--i posted about yr. birthday on WFMU's Beware of the Blog this morning, but I didn't know if you were telling people how old you were. HAPPY BIRTHDAY anyway!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:29am From: gavin

Wed. 2/11/09 9:30am From: dc pat

quite right gavin

Wed. 2/11/09 9:30am From: miss v

Wed. 2/11/09 9:32am From: Janey Yonkers

It's 50 years long, it plays in real time.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:32am From: chooch

can you help me with my melon?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:32am From: BSI

THE COMPUTER PROBLEM HAS FAILED, has it not?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:32am From: trrrish

happy Geburtstag, Ken!
and bon Anniversaire !

It all sounds good - 'half century' 'demi-siècle' 'la musique' 'corn weenie'..

Wed. 2/11/09 9:33am From: gerardo

"¡cumpleaños feliz!", ken

Wed. 2/11/09 9:34am From: Ken

Yes! I wont the computer battle. But the computer thinks it won. That was the only way I could do it.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:34am From: negator

Pork Weenie

Wed. 2/11/09 9:35am From: Laurie

Happy Birthday, Ken!!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:35am From: chris

Ok, I have to interrupt. It's not pork weenie it's corn weenie.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:35am From: Vicki

I think we call a Corn Weenie a "Toad In The Hole" here

Wed. 2/11/09 9:36am From: gavin

i've soiled myself.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:36am From: Freddy from West Orange Plumbing Supply

Happy Birthday Ken. Wish you many more great years

Wed. 2/11/09 9:37am From: paul

longmont pition castle would be proud of that end bit there

Wed. 2/11/09 9:37am From: Doug from DC

Really, really!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:38am From: Ghengis Jung

Is that what Toad in the Hole is?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:38am From: Cecile

put your head in your lap and explore the wonders of Port Sayaid.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:41am From: Vicki

Toad in the Hole is like a Corn Weenie, only it's in a dish. Sort of flat. Sausage surrounded by "Yorkshire Pudding" (but that's another story) type batter. Not on a stick. I didn't know what a Corn Weenie was before Mr Proft started telling us about it

Wed. 2/11/09 9:42am From: chris

Mmmmm, batter.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:42am From: annie

hey all, just made it home in time for part two of ken's diatribe on sleeplessness. happy birthday ken! say it!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:43am From: Lizardner Dave

Crap, I have to go to a meeting for the rest of the show. Well, there's always archives.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:44am From: dc pat

where I come from it's a "corn dog" and now I only eat the veggie versions....which suck...so i don't eat them either...

Wed. 2/11/09 9:45am From: Chris From West Orange Plumbing Suppl

Aw man Ken, just wanted to say that you know I LOVE THE SHOW, and can you play Fluffy for me man. WOOO I LOVE THE SHOW, IIIIII LLLLOOOOVVVEEE IIIIITTTT

Wed. 2/11/09 9:45am From: JJZ

I'm reminded I need to visit this one place in the Chicagoland area that's known for really good corn dogs.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:45am From: owen

is a weenie a thing in it's own right?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:46am From: Cecile

yes it is colloquial for hot dog, such as "weenie roast"

Wed. 2/11/09 9:46am From: BSI

dc pat:
My solution is to use rocket-fuel strength curry/vindaloo sauce as a dipper. Makes even the most horrifyingly dreadful veggie corndogs awesome.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:46am From: Cecile

not to be confused with "sausage fest"

Wed. 2/11/09 9:47am From: listener mark

We toast an English Muffin, cut a hole in each center, place them on a hot skillet, and drop an egg in each. That's our "Toad In The Hole."

Wed. 2/11/09 9:47am From: Cecile

wouldn't a heavily battered tofu cylinder be way better than fake hot dogs?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:48am From: BSI

lovely groove to this one.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:48am From: Cecile

mark, I grew up with that being called a "one-eyed jack" or "egg in the hole"

Wed. 2/11/09 9:49am From: High and Confused in New Jersey

Ayo guys, what the heck is all this Corn Weenie stuff about.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:49am From: jan

Sorry Ken, forgot that it was your birthday! Happy Birthday. When will the official holiday celebrating your birth be enacted? Where is the postage stamp with your likeness?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:49am From: annie

cecile, just a heads-up. life is great and ken ahs soooo much to look forward to, now that he has reached this pinnacle. 55 and feelin'great!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:51am From: Larry's alter-ego

ken, I understand you are celebrating a birthday today. Will there be donuts? And how will you fit all the celebrants in the boat?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:51am From: Ken

Will someone bring High and Confused up to speed? Because I am not capable of it.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:51am From: Ghengis Jung

@High and Confused in New Jersey: For many years, people believe that the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about, but it has recently been discovered that, in fact, Corn Weenie is what it's all about...

Wed. 2/11/09 9:53am From: deix

rilly, rilly. 'tis.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:53am From: JJZ

I admit, I don't actually care about Corn Weenie fever.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:54am From: jan

I think I have heard every program since the advent of Corn Weenie,
but I can't recall if the origin of this mantra was ever discussed. Ken, would you mind explaining?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:54am From: High and Confused

Oh I get it not. (As I take a hit) So then Corn Weenie is the word

Wed. 2/11/09 9:55am From: raga

ken, i think you're a corn weenie. REALLY, REALLY!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:56am From: Ghengis Jung

Here is the Corn Weenie backstory: http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2007/06/365_days_155_le.html

Wed. 2/11/09 9:57am From: Cecile

I love Kenny G.
Don't be hating on Kenny G.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:57am From: Cecile

Does Guy Kawasaki let the good times roll?

Wed. 2/11/09 9:58am From: listener mark

H & C, All Hail Corn Weenie. Just relax, close your eyes, let the waves of corn weenie engulf you. Don't forget to flush.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:58am From: gerardo

i'm a kenny g fan, too, cecile

so it's two of us

Wed. 2/11/09 9:59am From: BSI

Kenny G: There can be only one.

Don't worry about corn weenie overdose. It's JUST.NOT.POSSIBLE.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:59am From: jeremy, the listener

speed please!

Wed. 2/11/09 9:59am From: Cecile

He has two fans.

Wed. 2/11/09 9:59am From: Really really poetic

I'm wound up by I Dream of Jeannie,
Or a Yellow Submarine Blue Meanie,
Or a James Bond shaken right martini,
Or a gassed-up gift-wrapped Lamborghini,
Or a magic wispy sheer bikini,
Or a plate of kick-ass tetrazzini,
But what really straightens a Pisa leanie,
And grows fresh hair on Mr. Cleanie,
The torpedo fit for a king or queenie,
The realest of dealies, life's gift...CORN WEENIE!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:01am From: Cecile

less talk, more weenie. ;D

Wed. 2/11/09 10:02am From: High and Confused in New Jersey

Kenny G is the man. He's From Vagina

Wed. 2/11/09 10:02am From: Cecile

but Ken, where can I find that Joy Division live thing you play all the time? It's great.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:02am From: High and Confused in New Jersey

By the way, does anybody wanna get high

Wed. 2/11/09 10:03am From: Ken

I'm a Kenny G fan too I bet!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:03am From: postmanpaul

ken - happy FIFTIETH and my condolences!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:03am From: dei x

I'd like to be at your birthday roast, representing the out of context reaction footage of the out of sobriety Dean Martin. Because you DESERVE a bash that future generations can buy after seeing it on TV.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:04am From: gerardo

so we're "three of a perfect pair"

Wed. 2/11/09 10:06am From: Cecile

it takes "discipline" to be a Kenny G. fan.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:06am From: Aloysius Snuffleupagus

Everybody knows about the word

Wed. 2/11/09 10:07am From: BSI

FIJI IS GREAT!!!!!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:09am From: gerardo

the rest... "it's only talk" ;)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:10am From: dc pat

man, television were such crappy musicians...

Wed. 2/11/09 10:12am From: Cecile

Yeah, but they were so damn good at it.

Genghis, this is actually really pretty!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:13am From: Ken

Put that in conrexr for us Par - who is a "good" guitar player?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:13am From: Ken

That would be "context for us, Pat"

Wed. 2/11/09 10:14am From: Ken

Yeah, great job Ghengis!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:15am From: thelma

Congratulations on the 50th anniversary of your expulsion from your mother's uterus. Many happy corny weenies of the day.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:16am From: BSI

oh jeezus, now peeing on the floor in savage delight........

Wed. 2/11/09 10:16am From: Cecile

I am blown away at all of these.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:17am From: gavin

...and a genre is born.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:17am From: Cecile

themla, my dad used to say 'happy anniversary of your natal day", but I think I have to start using yours.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:20am From: Doug in DC

Great edit there at the beginning!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:21am From: BSI

so, how goes the search for Michael Proft? We need to get this guy on the phone for some on-air surreality....

Wed. 2/11/09 10:22am From: really really

I can't get anything done I'm laughing so hard.

corn weenie

Wed. 2/11/09 10:22am From: jan

This concentration on Corn Weenie- it's very much the programming style of Kenny G, despite your assertions otherwise.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:23am From: Ken

Yes, what I would give for Michael Proft to do some marathon spots for me. Or to speak at my roast tonight.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:25am From: Cecile

i hate to be impatient, but it can't be helped.
when's mine up?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:26am From: dc chris

Hey Doug, what are the odds of getting played in the same set?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:26am From: BSI

Doug is dancing on the ceiling again!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:26am From: Cecile

what a feeling!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:26am From: Ken

Next up Cecile! You done the right thing to speak up! I have my head up my ass, I bet!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:27am From: Doug from DC

Weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie weenie

Wed. 2/11/09 10:27am From: thelma

And don't forget to give credit to the late Mohammed El Bakkar for the basis of the Corn Weenie song "Haun Melee" (Sway with Me) on the 1957 Audio Fidelity LP or CD "Port Said."

Wed. 2/11/09 10:27am From: Cecile

aw, hell naw birthday boy!

You have bad conference hangover.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:27am From: dc chris

Oh what a feeling, corn weenies on the ceiling.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:28am From: jon

how many weenies does it take to screw in a light bulb

Wed. 2/11/09 10:29am From: gerardo

@jan:

"a good composer does not imitate; he steals." (igor stravinsky)

@ thelma:
thanx for the info - i suspected it was a different track

@cecile:
"when we're dancing on the ceiling"?...
(your remix sounds great ;))

Wed. 2/11/09 10:29am From: dc pat

wish I hadn't been too lazy to do this...

Wed. 2/11/09 10:30am From: Siobhan Towey

I am alone in my kitchen with the morning off and I am cracking up. Please don't ever stop with this Weenie business.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:30am From: Parq

Yay, I got to my desk just in time for Cile's entry!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:31am From: Cecile

yay me! I'm kinda proud...

Wed. 2/11/09 10:31am From: John From Oslo

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEN - ROCK ON!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:33am From: gerardo

@ cecile:
i love it, let's dance!

@ ken:
i wish i could celebrate my birthday like this ;)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:34am From: Ken From Hyde Park

Hi. Happy birthday! And Happy Foundation Day to the folks in Japan! Enjoy a corn weenie on me. (Hmm...that doesn't sound right, come to think of it.)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:35am From: Cecile

@gerardo - any time!
@ken - this is the best radio birthday party evah.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:35am From: gigantor

You know, I thought I recognized that song. My parents had that album when I was growing up (Port Said by Mohammed el Bakkar); it had a rather attractive, scantily-clad harem girl on the cover.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:36am From: Cecile

y-e-s
y-o-u
d-o

Wed. 2/11/09 10:37am From: Carmichael

Good morning, Ken and everyone. What the f%&k did I walk in on?!? This is the comment list from Pink Flamingos ....

And apparently Happy Birthday Ken. I know not of these weenies of which you speak. But I am both disgusted and intrigued.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:38am From: jojo

ken you sound even better in HD

Wed. 2/11/09 10:38am From: Parq

Gigantor: mention scantily clad harem girls and I got all the incentive I need to head over to Google.

http://www.el-bakkar.com/images/Covers/PortSaid.jpg

Wed. 2/11/09 10:38am From: dc pat

Ha, no I'm gonna "remix" it....

Wed. 2/11/09 10:38am From: Tom ( The Bactrian Support NetWork )

< radio geek . ok FM is CD quality and AM close to FM quality ...? who cares ?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:39am From: dc pat

I meant "now" ..

Wed. 2/11/09 10:39am From: gerardo

@ cecile:
you're too kind ;)

and concerning spelling it all, u have 2, mostly with a language where /i/ sound can be written in ... 4 different ways?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:39am From: High and Confused

Corn Weenie is RETARDED

Wed. 2/11/09 10:39am From: smallybiggs

what will I do without wfmu :(

Wed. 2/11/09 10:40am From: Cecile

Wed. 2/11/09 10:41am From: Aloysius Snuffleupagus

Hey Ken! - Do me! Play MY Weenie!!! I'd like it ... really, really...

Wed. 2/11/09 10:42am From: Cecile

yay, Cramps tribute and Corn Weenie together!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:42am From: -max-

Hello Ken. Good Happy Observed Birthday to you. You know what version I'm looking forward to, but obviously you have to pace yourself. We don't want you to shoot your load too quickly.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:44am From: gerardo

@parq:
cover album is great, really nice

Wed. 2/11/09 10:44am From: Freddy

LOL, all the customers in my shop think I'm crazy for listening to this station. They keep asking me to turn WFMU off, and put on some commercial shit. Fucking losers.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:45am From: gigantor

Worth it, no? Kinda thing you remember when you are a young boy in the 70s.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:46am From: Freddy

Gigantor the Space age Robot. What's up dude

Wed. 2/11/09 10:47am From: stu

why does this vocalist sound like Fred Schneider from the B-52s?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:47am From: gerardo

@ gigantor:
absolutely ;)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:50am From: Freddy

Dude I think you spelt Maury wrong

Wed. 2/11/09 10:51am From: Cecile

In New Zealand, it's called the Maori Povich show.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:52am From: postmanpaul

gigantor - fortunately it is the kind of thing i cannot remember encountering when i was in my twenties in the seventies.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:52am From: paul

wheeere's debbie?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:53am From: dei x

You don't deserve to be punished. You're unworthy even of spite. *CRACK*

Wed. 2/11/09 10:53am From: -max-

Nice WeenieMix there, B Janoff.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:53am From: Parq

The hills are alive with the sound of spanking . . .

Wed. 2/11/09 10:53am From: KEILI!

I feel like such a WEENIE... I can't come to your birfday party roast tonight. Have fun!
Hey Paulthepostman! you cheatin' on me with wfmu?!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:54am From: postmanpaul

you flagellating on air again ken?

Wed. 2/11/09 10:54am From: jojo

we called cocaine povich in college (philly) due to maury's rep from his days as the local tv broadcaster when he was evidently quite the zooted up white man about town, evidently during that era (whenever that was) that name was actually widely used "on the street"...

Wed. 2/11/09 10:55am From: postmanpaul

hi keili, you're up late!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:55am From: dc chris

We're all weenies now.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:55am From: gerardo

maury = maori - another spelling feature ;)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:56am From: BSI

A good showing from the DC corn-weenie crowd so far.
.....but we're missing one still, eh? (wink wink) (or weenie weenie)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:57am From: gerardo

"really really"?)

Wed. 2/11/09 10:57am From: Cecile

Gerardo, one English grammarian wrote a very funny book called "Crazy English" about our fascination with multiple spelling iterations.

Wed. 2/11/09 10:57am From: KEILI

I couldn't miss Ken's birthday show Paul!

Wed. 2/11/09 10:58am From: Ghengis Jung

Rokhausen! Amazing!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:00am From: gerardo

@cecile:
thanx very much for the tip

btw, i received this mail yesterday:

"For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition
and health.
It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional
studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausage and fat and suffer
fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION:
Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you."

@ken:
when will remixes be available for downloading?

I assumed it'd be a marathon premium.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:01am From: Cecile

that's hilarious!

I am gobsmacked by these remixes.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:03am From: Carmichael

Cecile, you really don't want to be gobsmacked. Trust me.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:04am From: Cecile

I know, Carm. Just figuratively!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:05am From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:07am From: Parq

You're not Sean Daily! Sean would never forget the "whoo hoo". Who are you and what have you done with our pal??

Wed. 2/11/09 11:09am From: Cecile

Just lookin' out for ya ....

Wed. 2/11/09 11:09am From: annie

wooohooo!! second comment after sean's.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:09am From: Ken

Fake Sean, honestly.

You're not only NOT even close to the first comment, you are COMMENT NUMBER 177.

The real Sean would never comment without knowing which number comment he was.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:10am From: Carmichael

Whoops. Mis-named post meant FOR Cecile. Jeez, too many corn weenies ....

Wed. 2/11/09 11:11am From: Cecile

Yeah, It was a weird but not completely unpleasant experience. ;D.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:11am From: Cecile

becoming Carm for a minute, that is.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:12am From: Ogunh

This is the first comment after the last comment.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:13am From: Cecile

Ken, it's the real Sean.
He just got a big head after BIlly Jam dedicated a show to him. ;D

Wed. 2/11/09 11:14am From: Cecile

expecting us to know what comment, geez.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:14am From: gerardo

@ken:
i started thinking that sean daily was an invention, like emmanuel goldstein...

@cecile and carmichael:
gobsmacked - a new new word

becoming Carm? sounds like being john malkovich or something?

Wed. 2/11/09 11:16am From: BillyJam

hey Ken, just sent over Arabic/Scratch remix of Corn Weenie via YouSEndIt.... See email for download link....thanks!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:16am From: Cecile

exactly

Wed. 2/11/09 11:17am From: Sean Daily

Okay, okay, I'm not exactly up to snuff... I haven't had much sleep... and doing "Woo-hoos" aren't exactly easy you know... I am, after all, an AAAARRRRRRR-tist.

Anyway...

First comment from Sean Daily today with "Woo hoo!" in it! Woo hoo!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:18am From: thelma

Locating the Port Said Album, I find the track is " Haun Meelee" track one on the second side, translated as "Sway Here." It is a very lively belly dance album, recommended for anyone attempting the art , or for someone into folk classics of Arabic music. The cover has a fairly nude dancer ,with severe eye make- up and glitter nipple protectors. She could use a corn weenie.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:18am From: Carmichael

Cecile, being me even for a minute is worse than being gobsmacked.

But at least you don't end up on the Jersey turnpike after being me.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:20am From: Bob

I'm going to count you as a few years older, so as not to have you younger than me by 5 yrs. It's Andy math.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:21am From: Parq

Whoa, Ken, go brush your teeth.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:21am From: bbell

I got lightheaded doing alternate nostril breathing in yoga class yesterday. Be careful or just be sitting down.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:21am From: Sean Daily

All right, everyone, alternate ventricle fibrilation... first the right ventricle... now the ACK (thud)

Wed. 2/11/09 11:21am From: kath of chi

ken i can hear your nadis choking from the strain.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:22am From: trrrish

alternate nostril breathing-- isn't it just promoting oxygen deficiency? if it's done long enough, wouldn't it just lead to a lengthy sleep or maybe a nap?

Wed. 2/11/09 11:22am From: BSI

alternate nostril weenie!
I'll tell you when to breathe.........

Wed. 2/11/09 11:24am From: Lalena

LOL. I love the alternate nostril breathing. I'm at home sick and clogged too.

Olbas is helping though. :) And your show!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:24am From: paul

woooo!!!!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:24am From: detroitdave

Ken, your a whack job but I can't stop listening.........your hilarious!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:25am From: Doug from DC

Cecile, great job on your remix. I got called into a meeting right after, so I couldn't say at the time. I heard Kenny G read the Cupcake Dog poem in the archives yesterday. Way cool! But I should mention that Intangible Arts is BSI's blog, not mine.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:25am From: paul

actually that should read There's A Place at Coney Island That Sells Really Really Mediocre Fish Sandwiches

Wed. 2/11/09 11:27am From: BSI

yeh, I belted Kenny G an email after he said that, but no on-air correction! That Kenny Gee is too damned professional! But it was great to hear the poem delivered by The Master.....

Wed. 2/11/09 11:27am From: Cecile

Oh, geez. I'm sorry. But hey, BSI went to my blog! Coolness!

and thanks!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:29am From: Cecile

this is a jam, BSI.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:29am From: gerardo

@cecile:

Wed. 2/11/09 11:29am From: BSI

Wed. 2/11/09 11:29am From: chris

Is ti possible to download shows or are they only available to stream?
Great stuff Ken!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:30am From: Cecile

I'll post it.
It's kind of boring, I just obssess about Scottish Terriers, the amortization of my clothes, and I put some Slayer concert pictures...

But Cupcake Dog is immortalized...

Wed. 2/11/09 11:32am From: Ken

I'm sorry everybody, I will get these all on the blog for downloading but it might take me a few days. I'm now 16 days late and $17.54 short.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:33am From: Ken

That's right, big UPS to Stump!!! Best in Show. Cool dog for once.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:34am From: Greg G from DC

It is rumored that Scott Asheton went to the Great Fillmore in the sky from consuming too many corn weenies, but I hate to bring this up, for I think you have exhausted that tribute ... but then ... this may be coded continuation that never ends???? Hmmmm?

Wed. 2/11/09 11:35am From: paul

corn WEENies!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:36am From: Doug from DC

@Cecile, I checked out your blog when you posted the poem to it. Thanks!

My main online deal is www.myspace.com/voiceofthegoldfish.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:36am From: Ken

Greg. RON Asheton, not Scott.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:36am From: BSI

oh, and thanks to Chris V, Mike B, Nathan, Jo, Mike S, Marian, and Su Hong for participating in the BSI Weenie Chorus....

Wed. 2/11/09 11:37am From: Cecile

Wed. 2/11/09 11:38am From: kEN

cECILE!! I have the CD here! WHat track do you want?

Wed. 2/11/09 11:38am From: Cecile

Wed. 2/11/09 11:38am From: postmanpaul

Wed. 2/11/09 11:39am From: Cecile

Bizness time or The Most Beautiful Girl in the ROom
Or Ladies of the World

Wed. 2/11/09 11:39am From: Disastrogirl

I made Michael a Flickr page where you can see more of his paintings. It's all older stuff, since that's all I had handy, but I'll be uploading his newer works soon. I don't have a link now because Flickr is blocked here at work, but if you do a search for Michael Proft you should be able to find him.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:41am From: Cribley

Isn't this track making you sleeeepy, Ken?

Wed. 2/11/09 11:41am From: gerardo

funny babymaking music... come to think of that concept...

Wed. 2/11/09 11:43am From: Parq

One minute listening to Ken on FMU is like two minutes with any other radio station.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:44am From: Ken

That was a terrible insult, Parq. And on my observed birthday, no less.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:45am From: Cecile

no, two minutes of Ken on Wednesday is better than one minute of Ken on Wednesday

Wed. 2/11/09 11:45am From: jojo

this business time is a great version of corn weenie

Wed. 2/11/09 11:46am From: Greg G from DC

YES, SCOTT and not Ron Asheton ... thank's for the correction Ken, and my apologies to Ron and family .... this is what happens when you work through the night non-stop starting with Mary McSorlrley and ending it with Ken, I don't use hours to keep track of time anymore, just which FMU DJ I've been listening to! Wow, ... I just realized how strange I've become!

Wed. 2/11/09 11:48am From: Parq

Ken, I'm not surprised, but I'm feeling sleepy just now.

Wed. 2/11/09 11:48am From: chris

This one is incredible

Hi Vicki-
Baloney Lady's a corn weenie.

Wed. 2/11/09 12:03pm From: Vicki

Wed. 2/11/09 12:03pm From: gerardo

yes, u are, vicki

Wed. 2/11/09 12:04pm From: Cecile

I dunno.
When I occasionally write stuff about like metal bands in free weeklies and whatnot, I either get mistaken for a guy or get marriage proposals relayed to me through friends.

No marriage proposals from guys thinking I'm a guy, or girls knowing I'm a girl, though.
