FIRST PLEDGER???

Mon. 3/2/09 9:12am From: Parq

Done.

Mon. 3/2/09 9:18am From: Ken

Cmon people, make that pledge line ring!800-989-9368

Mon. 3/2/09 9:24am From: Ken

I think a good rule of thumb is to make a pledge for every playlist comment you've made in the last year. Sean Daily, I'm talkin at you.

Mon. 3/2/09 9:26am From: bw

show some love Sean indeed

Mon. 3/2/09 9:30am From: Raj

Alright, well here's my comment.

OH, COOL! HOLDUP PIX! I'LL EMAIL YOU ONE OF MINE! OH, WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE....

let's keep this going, folks!

Oh, and woo-hoo!

Mon. 3/2/09 9:35am From: BSI

but how are you gonna top the tazing-andy-breckman pledge lure? eh?

Mon. 3/2/09 9:43am From: Ghengis Jung

Happy Marathon!

Mon. 3/2/09 9:43am From: bw

BSI - pledge and you will find out!

Mon. 3/2/09 9:44am From: Ghengis Jung

I love the bank robbery photos!

Mon. 3/2/09 9:50am From: PMD

Ken, Cecile said she adopted you...

Mon. 3/2/09 10:00am From: sebastian

hmmm... conspicuous silence from the patrons...

Mon. 3/2/09 10:01am From: bw

Dear listeners... without you the phones dont ring 18009899368

Mon. 3/2/09 10:09am From: AnAnonymousParty

The 5th bank robber picture is NOT me. I don't even have a red bandana like one that anymore.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:12am From: BSI

oh, I will, bw... just waiting for the most dramatic moment to spring... What a perfect way to celebrate missing the axe during the last layoff spree! Whee!

Mon. 3/2/09 10:17am From: postmanpaul

hi ben and ken, good luck with the marathon lads, re; my pledge ref no.9453, any chance of a wfmu t-shirt rather than WFMU's Garden State Sticker and Reduced Record Fair admission swag?! Please.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:31am From: AnAnonymousParty

Put the needle near the record?

Mon. 3/2/09 10:33am From: BSI

pluck the needle from the turntable and wander away, aimlessly?

Mon. 3/2/09 10:40am From: owen

'put the needle and the record on ebay'

Mon. 3/2/09 10:40am From: Carmichael

Good morning, BW, Ken and fellow loose-walleted listeners. I am performing a pre-pledge fiscal analysis at this moment. More to come, as payday is this week.

I will give until I cry.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:43am From: Ken

Paul the Postman - Sorry, no can do on a T-shirt for $15. We can do swaps for swag at levels $50 and higher though.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:49am From: Parq

Back on line, fellow programs. If you're in the eastern corridor, I hope it's still pretty where you are. NYC already looks like the inside of a hangover victim's stomach.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:51am From: dc pat

dc is amazing right now--the sledding was perfect.

Mon. 3/2/09 10:54am From: SeanG

playin Robert Forster--gotta pledge

Mon. 3/2/09 10:57am From: ottawa mike

open the charlie feathers' eligibility to $50+ pledgers from earlier?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:01am From: efd

This Don Cavalli album is sooo good! Everyone should be pledging and trying to win it.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:01am From: Jason

This Don Cavalli is awesome

Mon. 3/2/09 11:02am From: Carmichael

The Holy Modal Rounders took me over the edge. I have pledged. Good luck, Ken & Benjamen

Mon. 3/2/09 11:05am From: Carmichael

15 seconds of fame ....

Mon. 3/2/09 11:09am From: Parq

But a whole year of smugness, Carm. And that's not even mentioning the swag.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:12am From: Parq

You have a point. Although no one knows about WFMU out here. I am slowly propogating the seeds of music diversity. How's that for smug?! :-)

Mon. 3/2/09 11:13am From: will

Benjamen, you do know the song "Ballad of Tommy Udo'" by Kaleidoscope from the record BERNICE? It's a good + fun song, complete with band member (David Lindley?) doing Udo quotes during ths song. Best , Will J

Mon. 3/2/09 11:14am From: Joe

Tom Waits for Snow, Man.

How fitting.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:14am From: Cecile

Hi, everyone!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:15am From: Carmichael

Aloha, Cecile!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:16am From: Cecile

Yeah, I own Ken.
They charged my PayPal, so it should be official.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:16am From: Everone

Hi, Cecile

Mon. 3/2/09 11:17am From: Parq

'Cile, have you picked out a color scheme for Ken's room yet?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:17am From: JT

this kool keith / tom waits thing is frikken nuts

Mon. 3/2/09 11:18am From: Cecile

Hiya, Carm!

Parq - Not yet - I didn't know I had that option...

Mon. 3/2/09 11:19am From: Hugo

Would a downgraded "Theory of Everything" be a "Theory of Something"?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:20am From: bw

pledge now to win this amazing cd

Mon. 3/2/09 11:22am From: still b/p

..or have you at least chosen the size of the pet carrier for the home visits, and a nice cedar-shavings DJ bed (plaid) from L.L. Bean?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:25am From: Cecile

LOL!
Not that, either.
I have been lying down on the job.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:25am From: wha?

Hypothesis of Everything, perchance?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:27am From: still b/p

Fifty percent downgrade = Theory of Every Other Thing.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:29am From: Parq

Would Ken be downsized from Freedman to Indentured-servitude-man?

Mon. 3/2/09 11:30am From: Hugo

Theory is when you know everything and nothing works. Practice is when everything works and you don't know why ...

Mon. 3/2/09 11:33am From: HotRod

LET'S GO PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:35am From: Emily

Ken- Don't worry! A lot of people are sleeping in b/c of the snow storm! FMU will prevail!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:39am From: sugarwolf

I am hoping I don't have to go in to work today... that way I can stay home and pledge more!!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:40am From: Carmichael

This is making me do the robot dance.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:40am From: Joe

Yeah my robot's dancing too.

Or are we talking about two different things.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:40am From: Hugo

Optimistic version:

Theory of Anything!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:42am From: gerardo

Mon. 3/2/09 11:45am From: hathaway

Mon. 3/2/09 11:46am From: still b/p

When desperation forces financial partnership with a certain native element in the FMU home region: Theory of The Thing...Y'Know, That Thing, The Thing We Talked About.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:47am From: Cecile

Nice, gerardo!
what problem is that? I usually have several going at once and get confused...

Mon. 3/2/09 11:48am From: Carmichael

Theory of the Thing of Which We Will Not Speak.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:50am From: Hugo

Theory of the Thing An Sich (german version)

Mon. 3/2/09 11:52am From: Carmichael

That's "mice" of today

Mon. 3/2/09 11:53am From: still b/p

A little dancing and uninhibited willingness could fundraise a single dollar bill at a time: Theory of Every Thong.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:54am From: hathaway

cecile, they can't figure out if i'm a boy or a girl either. although your name is less confusing than mine, i think!

Mon. 3/2/09 11:55am From: Carmichael

I thought that same thing whenever I saw Ms. Hathaway.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:56am From: Cecile

One would think, hathway....

Well, a little gender confusion is good for the soul, I think.

Mon. 3/2/09 11:56am From: BSI

if I were one to make terrible puns, I'd say you Hathaway better name than some...

Mon. 3/2/09 11:59am From: hathaway

bsi, you have a lovely name too! are you named for broadcast signal intrustion?

Mon. 3/2/09 12:00pm From: Theopholus Punoval

Nice try, BSI.

Mon. 3/2/09 12:00pm From: BSI

god, I hope so...

Mon. 3/2/09 12:01pm From: Cecile

hahahahah, maybe not.

Mon. 3/2/09 12:18pm From: Rob W
