Mon. 2/23/09 9:14am From: postmanpaul

'afternoon ben and city slickers.

Mon. 2/23/09 9:20am From: wha?

stroking mouses to save cats?

Mon. 2/23/09 9:23am From: C

you have such an interesting life. those kinds of cell phone conversations are what i could only hope to overhear.

Mon. 2/23/09 9:24am From: whoa

heavy, ben

Mon. 2/23/09 9:24am From: SmokinJ

My cat now adores you BW!

Mon. 2/23/09 9:25am From: postmanpaul

Need a light Paul?

Mon. 2/23/09 9:28am From: postmanpaul

cheers smokin but i'm fired up!

Mon. 2/23/09 9:28am From: SmokinJ

I had not a doubt:)

Mon. 2/23/09 9:31am From: Ike

That spoken interlude was brilliant, but as for technology for lost pets, that cat should simply be posted on Craigslist. Compassionate bartender!

Mon. 2/23/09 9:38am From: bw

Ike
I do worry that the bartender may not have looked out for the little guy in the end

Mon. 2/23/09 9:38am From: Scott

Hey Benjamen, I'm excited for your show this morning.

Mon. 2/23/09 9:49am From: Ike

Bummer. Too many cats to rescue, not enough time or space. So did you just walk away from the absurd emotionally-unavailable girl, or what? Heh. Great music!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:05am From: eun

i like this spanish music heh

Mon. 2/23/09 10:06am From: risky!

good morning all!!!!!!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:08am From: Doug from DC

I thought the Aquella Ilusion was 70's prog, but apparently not. Very nice sound.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:13am From: Olivia

this is amazing. cowbell?

Mon. 2/23/09 10:23am From: Cecile

Dude...Mobius in the morning - awesome - reminds me of my 70s/80s reading Heavy Metal.
Now, wish I had some weed...

Mon. 2/23/09 10:23am From: Cecile

Moebius, I mean...

Mon. 2/23/09 10:24am From: Cecile

YES! I have noticed that kids of a certain age (say under 25) don't like to say "thank you" ;P

Mon. 2/23/09 10:25am From: it's too much pressure

why say it if you don't mean it

Mon. 2/23/09 10:27am From: dc pat

well, speaking as a parent, the "thank you" issue comes and goes. My kids have weeks where they'll thank me for even looking at them kindly and then there are the periods when I couldn't pay them to voice gratitude. Pure stubbornness.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:28am From: Cecile

because gratitude is a mature emotion, itmp.

It sounds corny, but I'm grateful to be able to wake up every morning, even if I'm in a pissy mood.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:30am From: Parq

By the time my girl was school age, I noticed she was much better about saying thank you out in the world than at home. After some reflection, I decided that this was okay - she understood the difference between what she had a right to expect from her parents and what she had a right to expect from anyone else.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:30am From: Parq

Digging the western comic, b/t/w.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:35am From: smallybiggs

I fuckin' love this show!!!!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:36am From: bw

parq! there is something really sad to me about that "what I have a right to expect" business

but what do I know!!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:37am From: bw

but you all can say thank you next week with the marathon!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:38am From: Joe

I'm under 25, and I never thank anyone for anything. Not because I was raised poorly - I'm just a strict Objectivist.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:38am From: Joe

All the cool kids are doing it.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:40am From: Cecile

sigh.
sigh.
this thank you and this fat thing is getting me down.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:41am From: Parq

Benjamin, I would respond, but I have to go out and eat some donuts.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:41am From: Cecile

anyone see Flight of the Conchords or Eastbound and Down last night? DIscuss?

Mon. 2/23/09 10:43am From: C

have you seen the somerville newspaper that has a section where readers can call a hotline and rant and they print the responses. it's pretty incredible

Mon. 2/23/09 10:45am From: Cecile

the St. Paul Pioneer Press has something called 'bulletin board", but it takes a more gentle and whimsical approach. It's kind of cute.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:46am From: BSI

LITTLE CAESAR! YASS!!!!
"could this be the end...of Rico?......."

Mon. 2/23/09 10:46am From: Cecile

I love that one and the Public Enemy.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:51am From: swami

brahbrah. Pepilepsy.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:52am From: Cecile

WOWOWOWOW!
"Arizona is one of the biggest states"

"I accept your offer of a ride"

A shoutout to Bubba Sparxxx? LOL!

Mon. 2/23/09 10:52am From: karao

Mon. 2/23/09 10:59am From: Carmichael

Good morning, Benjamin and the faithful.

Mon. 2/23/09 10:59am From: bw

Mon. 2/23/09 11:00am From: Chief Iron Eyes Cody

Mon. 2/23/09 11:10am From: karao

Mon. 2/23/09 11:14am From: Cecile

Mon. 2/23/09 11:19am From: Josh

Yes, the Idle Times, the return of the 7".

Mon. 2/23/09 11:22am From: GP

Ha..I thought his was the Cramps for a minute, was only listening and not looking at screen..a pretty cool sound none-the-less.

Mon. 2/23/09 11:25am From: bw

Mon. 2/23/09 11:28am From: risky!

Mon. 2/23/09 11:33am From: TD

Mon. 2/23/09 11:33am From: Axl R

That ain't no tribute band Petunia. We'll be back next Saturday...live. Word...Yea...Hell Yea!

Mon. 2/23/09 11:34am From: a veteran child care person

Mon. 2/23/09 11:41am From: bw

TD - did i not say claremont lounge? thats what I meant - of course you have been there!

It sounds a lot like the Residents at this speed.

Mon. 2/23/09 11:46am From: dc pat

much better at this speed...although I haven't heard the normal speed version.

Mon. 2/23/09 11:46am From: Carmichael

Gosh, they're good at 2 different speeds. Which is 2 more than Axl R ....

Mon. 2/23/09 11:46am From: TD

You kept saying Charleston For the record, Ihave never been there but our mutual friend Chris B. has and speaks reverently of it.

Mon. 2/23/09 11:46am From: Andy in Iowa City
