DST... aarrgghhh.. noo beware the beast!
  10:34am
marathon veteran:

Yeah, just to clarify what Benjamin said, the actual swag doesn't come with your bill. You get an invoice that indicates what swag you've got coming. This, by the way, is your chance to change your mind about items, adjust size requests, and that sort of thing.

dc pat:

I like the trees growing through vehicles.
  11:09am
annie:

interesting question pat. i am to a large extent, but i still have some doubts.... i have seen and read ALL the various theories... know almost all the players, and still do not have definite ideas. we can chat about this.. are we friends on myspace yet? i am not going there anymore due to virus issues.
  11:10am
annie:

bw, did you see the tree photo i sent?
  11:11am
annie:

that last one is a hoot.
  11:11am
bw:

annie i missed it? did you email it? bwalker@gmail.com
  11:12am
Parq:

People, I gotta tell ya - the more the morning drags on, the more I feel like that car in the pic accompanying the Geo. Harrison track in the first set. Hoof 'n' Mouth hangover. Pass me a bloody mary.
  11:12am
annie:

clicked it into the comments. can email if you wish
  11:14am
Parq:

The motorsickle wedged into the Banyan tree is a classic.
  11:15am
Bad Ronald:

Um, these trees are beginning to take an anthropomorphic bent...
  11:16am
dc pat:

annie: yeah we should be friends still. all I can say is your boy must have will power made of titanium.
  11:16am
annie:

bw, sent it. let me know if you receive..
  11:17am
annie:

pat, i am in fb ... use d's last name.. and my first!!
  11:18am
postmanpaul:

benjamen, nicely sustained groove - superlatives fail me! i love wfmu (true)
  11:19am
annie:

what a great day!
  11:23am
dc pat:

oooooooo, I'm not a facebook person. Myspace is the only thing I do because of the music stuff.
  11:24am
annie:

i am "notsowisewoman" Yahoo!!!
  11:25am
postmanpaul:

dc pat, excuse me, but what is a mobile phone?!
  11:27am
Pearly Sweets:

This Unicorns song almost sounds like a bedhead song.
  11:28am
anonymous:

Where can i find this unicorns song? What album/release? it is boss.
  11:28am
Pearly Sweets:

Well... it did until they went and sped it all up.
  11:29am
Parq:

The tree sapling pushing up through human-made squallor is a classic photo theme. Nat Lamp once ran a parody of the Sierra Club newsletter - "the Secaucas Club" - with a twist on that photo to hearten lovers of "the technology", a chunk of concrete lying in a meadow.
  11:30am
Mark:

What about a car-tree fusion. This is the first thing I found when I scrolled the Russian words for 'car' and 'tree' into google. Maybe we can find a tree of cars later. (scroll down a little)
http://pofig.com/forum/thread17418.html
  11:31am
dc pat:

I don't know pmp, I don't have one.
  11:31am

  11:31am
postmanpaul:

  11:32am
postmanpaul:

dc pat, i'm with you.
  11:34am
stranger:

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
  11:34am
dc pat:

ok, full confession: dc mia (the wife) is making me get one for our trip to NYC....go figure.
  11:34am
Mark:

I searched for 'tree made of cars' and found this instead. It killed me laughing.
http://funster.us/2009/01/an-imaginative-tree-house-made-of-car-in-the-middle-of-air/
  11:34am
annie:

hehe, i have a tracphone,... that's the extent of it.. and where i live i get no reception.. and PMP: they get paid for that propagandizing. . i tell them they're doing a great job and thanks anyway....
  11:37am
dc pat:

funny tree/car story: when I lived in PGH, we use to go hiking in the city parks all the time. Well, one day we started off on a hike and kept seeing cars in the woods--the deeper in we hiked, the older the cars until we actually found, I kid you not, a model t ford with trees growing out of it. didn't have a camera.
  11:37am
annie:

great mark.. ya think he might be a tad proud of that?
  11:40am
Wendy del Formaggio:

WFMU is my chosen cult. I like that there's no doomsday involved; just a bunch of music and people I like.
  11:41am
annie:

one cult i am glad to be giving my money to...
  11:44am
stingy d:

hi everybody
  11:45am
annie:

morning stingy.
  11:45am
dc pat:

hey singy.
  11:46am
Ike:

Plus, other cults probably don't appreciate so many different types of music. Or cheese.
  11:46am
Bad Ronald:

Stingy D and the place to be!
  11:46am
annie:

pat. email me at your leisure..
  11:46am
stingy d:

yo, let's get right to the program, why didn't anybody say hi to me, i know ike has it out for me, but that doesn't explain anyone else.
  11:48am
Glenn L:

Right back at you, del Formaggio!
  11:49am
Parq:

D, Ike wasn''t there, and I looked all over the place for you. Didn't you say you'd be wearing a "Stingy D" shirt? Well, I looked at guys' shirt-fronts until I was afraid that I'd be risking a beer in the face, to no avail.
  11:51am
stingy d:

oh... yea someone told me actually that my sweatshirt was obstructing the t shirt too much. i just wanted to give everyone a hard time. the shirt just said "stingy" and had a big face on it. i was also wearing a bright yellow hoodie. and got there at 12 something
  11:51am
stingy d:

nex't time
  11:55am
Doug from DC:

A palindromic band name, good one.
  11:56am
Parq:

We may have missed each other, then. I split fairly promptly after the show ended, and I think I'd have noticed a bright yellow hoodie, as I was wearing bright yellow too (tee shirt under dark blue blazer).
  11:56am
Wendy del Formaggio:

Stingy, I didn't see you last night. And from what I heard on the radio, you and I weren't answering phones at the marathon at the same time. Next year, ja?
  11:57am
Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!
  12:00pm
peter choyce:

sounds good. remember- keep the hits coming. Don't spazz out with some long improv track. remember who taught u radio!!!
  12:00pm
stingy d:

wendy i only answered phones once.... it was this past thursday. from 9 to 1 or so... there was other people there... but i get shy when i am no longer anonymous. and didn't really say anything to anyone.
  12:00pm
JCityJensen:

richman in the morning - nice!
  12:01pm
stingy d:

i think i saw liz berg, but i got confused because she was in a costume
  12:01pm
stingy d:

also, evan funk davies was a star
  12:06pm
postmanpaul:

you're up there in the twinkling firmament with them stingy d, in my book.
  12:06pm
Wendy del Formaggio:

Stingy, we must have been there at the same time, at least for a few minutes. You sure are shy! Don't worry, I'm nice. Well, more or less... :-D
