Mon. 2/16/09 9:34am From: annie

today you have to at least peek at the comic, it is gonna be a doozy!

Mon. 2/16/09 9:37am From: still b/p

Tesla hat size S, suit size XL. Cuts kind of a "Of Mice and Men" Lenny figure. "And tell the part about the resistors again, Tom!"
And his exclamation point is a pod of mystery beans. But I'm for him!

Mon. 2/16/09 9:39am From: ange

MR. WALKER - didn't you make a video about Tesla once? If anyone on the playlist wants to see it, I sure could track down the link for you all...

Mon. 2/16/09 9:39am From: Bad Ronald

Gotta remember -Edison fried a live elephant for publicity - not too cool!

Morning folks.

Mon. 2/16/09 9:40am From: bw

ugh.. yes.. i did make a video about tesla and pigeons..
no need to track down the link ANGE!

Mon. 2/16/09 9:42am From: still b/p

Mon. 2/16/09 9:52am From: annie

Mon. 2/16/09 10:02am From: annie

Mon. 2/16/09 10:07am From: Bad Ronald

BW - are you panning your voice?

Mon. 2/16/09 10:09am From: Bad Ronald

...I'm getting a Leslie effect...

Mon. 2/16/09 10:10am From: Joe

BW is not an organ! He is a free man!

Mon. 2/16/09 10:12am From: bw

Mon. 2/16/09 10:13am From: Bad Ronald

Mon. 2/16/09 10:15am From: Bad Ronald

Mon. 2/16/09 10:21am From: bw

Mon. 2/16/09 10:24am From: Bad Ronald

In the long run, didn't Edison rip off Tesla? What a prick.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:36am From: GP

Morning all. Love the latter 20th century language that Edison employs.....and remember to FEAR THE NINE BALL,.....where did he find the nine ball anyway, in the Edison Labs employee lounge?

Mon. 2/16/09 10:36am From: frenchee

OMG--BABYFACE is so good. Babs is awesome.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:36am From: T

for the video codec geek, tell him your expertise is in 'content' ...then defer to the audience for codec input.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:37am From: Parq

Ron, MS Media Player has a phased sound quality, especially on mike breaks. Could that be your problem?

Mon. 2/16/09 10:38am From: bw

T - I am with you on that one - tahnks - was thinking that afterI shut him up - I will get some good smart people to weigh in.

frenchee - babyface is my new fav

GP - 9 ball is tesla's kryptonite I guess???

Mon. 2/16/09 10:41am From: Andy

An inspirational quote:
"Stop It! Stop making crap like this!!" --Thomas Edison

Mon. 2/16/09 10:41am From: Bad Ronald

thx Parq - I'm using iTunes w/the 128k stream. Maybe the same deal but I never really noticed it before...

Mon. 2/16/09 10:43am From: frenchee

Ha ha, don't ya ever make this shit in my lab!

WTF? And even though I have today off, I so want to freelance-edit that "He was to touchy to being with" Ouch!

Mon. 2/16/09 10:45am From: frenchee

oops I typo-e the typo.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:46am From: Andy

I noticed that, too! (I am freelance editing today btw)

Mon. 2/16/09 10:47am From: bw

hi Andy
how is your TAN???

Mon. 2/16/09 10:52am From: Andy

Faaaa-bulous. My weekend in Tanqueray worked wonders.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:54am From: Parq

Someone could do a whole comic book series on great American heroes who were actually pricks. Ruth, Chaplin . . .

Mon. 2/16/09 10:57am From: frenchee

what a good idea, Parq! Who else? Hamilton? Burr?
oh BW, don't buy that trickle-down b.s.

Mon. 2/16/09 10:58am From: fras

your friend is insane lol

Mon. 2/16/09 11:01am From: Goofy

Disney was a prick too!

Mon. 2/16/09 11:02am From: bw

fras - I totally agree with you

Mon. 2/16/09 11:32am From: frenchee

wow, Tesla went all Howard Hughes....

Mon. 2/16/09 11:34am From: Parq

Howard Hughes was kind of a groundbreaker in the field of men of accomplishment who were batshit crazy.

Mon. 2/16/09 11:37am From: still b/p

Note to men of accomplishment: Do not subject already-unsteady head to multiple air crashes.

Mon. 2/16/09 11:40am From: Sean Daily

So when is Tesla going to pop off a Kamehameha Wave against Edison?

Oh, and... not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Mon. 2/16/09 11:40am From: steve

i used to get my little cousin to scream over and over into a microphone. kids really do love screaming in a microphone, especially if they get it played back to them.

Mon. 2/16/09 11:41am From: annie

we got a kick out of the reel to reel playing backwards...

Mon. 2/16/09 11:46am From: GP

Oh crap...pigeon love...Not Again, Nick T.

Mon. 2/16/09 11:59am From: Tesla

Treat me like a statue of Lord Nelson you filthy bird...

Tue. 2/17/09 8:29pm From: will

I used to love Charlie's show in this time spot, in fact he was the DJ who really turned me on to FMU, and now I have to say I really love yr crazy unpredictable show just as much. I'm just so full of love. Out Here, Will J Pawtucket RI

Sun. 5/24/09 7:47pm From: Wyld

Seriously, that was utterly fantastic. Got linked over here from Reddit and I'm bloody glad I checked it out. Seventeen mutated thumbs up :)
