Mon. 3/16/09 10:18am From: postmanpaul

annie, only 4 hours ahead instead of 5. i like to think that brings us all a little closer, don't you!

Mon. 3/16/09 10:19am From: dc pat

dc, top o' the creamy nose tickling guiness to ya!

Mon. 3/16/09 10:28am From: annie

Mon. 3/16/09 10:28am From: bw

cars VS trees!!!!

who will be the final victor???

Mon. 3/16/09 10:29am From: Parq

Hey there, DC, how are the plans for the family journey to NYC coming?

Mon. 3/16/09 10:29am From: postmanpaul

annie, maybe baby....... ;)

Mon. 3/16/09 10:30am From: annie

smiling,, just sayin'.................

Mon. 3/16/09 10:31am From: Parq

Tish, that's French!

Mon. 3/16/09 10:31am From: stranger

definitely trees!! human never win nature

Mon. 3/16/09 10:32am From: MarVet II

A *list* of all the swag, that is.

Mon. 3/16/09 10:34am From: annie

DST... aarrgghhh.. noo beware the beast!

Mon. 3/16/09 10:34am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 10:35am From: bebopgun

please, no more recipe songs:)

Mon. 3/16/09 10:35am From: anon

Mon. 3/16/09 10:39am From: annie

Mon. 3/16/09 10:40am From: annie

wonderful old-style rooming house i guess just down the street from the original chelsea... and across the street from chelsea west where my son'd movie premiered.. ahem ahem..

Mon. 3/16/09 10:44am From: postmanpaul

annnnnieeeeeeee! wow'd!!!
now, i must resume the decorating, and i'll try not to get overcome by emulsion.

Mon. 3/16/09 10:45am From: dc pat

annie: We're staying with friends in Brooklyn over the weekend and then 3 days on the island. Thanks for the hotel tip but the spouse has taken care of lodgings. Son's movie? more info?

Mon. 3/16/09 10:45am From: BSI

The 911-theory movie, Annie?

Mon. 3/16/09 10:49am From: word up doug

yes.

Mon. 3/16/09 10:51am From: Parq

Nice that you added the Christmas shot, Ben. I was beginning to think you were channeling Reagan-era Interior Sec James Watt.

Mon. 3/16/09 10:54am From: bw

haha Parq - never
just an observer here.. but biased toward the trees

Mon. 3/16/09 10:59am From: BSI

dunno about NYC, but it sure was a rainy day down DC way...

Mon. 3/16/09 10:59am From: BSI

...sunshine baby...

Mon. 3/16/09 11:05am From: Ike

Have any female vocalists ever covered "It's a Rainy Day Sunshine Girl"?

Mon. 3/16/09 11:07am From: dc pat

wow annie, I have about a million and six questions but will just ask, are you on board with your son's views?

Mon. 3/16/09 11:08am From: bw

hope you all enjoy the trees

Mon. 3/16/09 11:09am From: dc pat

I like the trees growing through vehicles.

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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:10am From: annie

bw, did you see the tree photo i sent?

Mon. 3/16/09 11:11am From: annie

that last one is a hoot.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:11am From: bw

annie i missed it? did you email it? bwalker@gmail.com

Mon. 3/16/09 11:12am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:12am From: annie

clicked it into the comments. can email if you wish

Mon. 3/16/09 11:14am From: Parq

The motorsickle wedged into the Banyan tree is a classic.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:15am From: Bad Ronald

Um, these trees are beginning to take an anthropomorphic bent...

Mon. 3/16/09 11:16am From: dc pat

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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:16am From: annie

bw, sent it. let me know if you receive..

Mon. 3/16/09 11:17am From: annie

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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:18am From: postmanpaul

benjamen, nicely sustained groove - superlatives fail me! i love wfmu (true)

Mon. 3/16/09 11:19am From: annie

what a great day!

Mon. 3/16/09 11:23am From: dc pat

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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:24am From: annie

i am "notsowisewoman" Yahoo!!!

Mon. 3/16/09 11:25am From: postmanpaul

dc pat, excuse me, but what is a mobile phone?!

Mon. 3/16/09 11:27am From: Pearly Sweets

This Unicorns song almost sounds like a bedhead song.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:28am From: anonymous

Where can i find this unicorns song? What album/release? it is boss.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:28am From: Pearly Sweets

Well... it did until they went and sped it all up.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:29am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:30am From: 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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:31am From: dc pat

I don't know pmp, I don't have one.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:31am From: annie

glad you could use it BW...

Mon. 3/16/09 11:31am From: postmanpaul

idiot mob sales wheezles keep believing they are tempting me with irresistable interneting add-ons. jeeeeeeezus chriiiiiiist, but i guess thats wheezles for you.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:32am From: postmanpaul

dc pat, i'm with you.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:34am From: stranger

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Mon. 3/16/09 11:34am From: dc pat

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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:34am From: 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/

Mon. 3/16/09 11:34am From: 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....

Mon. 3/16/09 11:37am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:37am From: annie

great mark.. ya think he might be a tad proud of that?

Mon. 3/16/09 11:40am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:41am From: annie

one cult i am glad to be giving my money to...

Mon. 3/16/09 11:44am From: stingy d

hi everybody

Mon. 3/16/09 11:45am From: annie

morning stingy.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:45am From: dc pat

hey singy.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:46am From: Ike

Plus, other cults probably don't appreciate so many different types of music. Or cheese.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:46am From: Bad Ronald

Stingy D and the place to be!

Mon. 3/16/09 11:46am From: annie

pat. email me at your leisure..

Mon. 3/16/09 11:46am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:48am From: Glenn L

Right back at you, del Formaggio!

Mon. 3/16/09 11:49am From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:51am From: 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

Mon. 3/16/09 11:51am From: stingy d

nex't time

Mon. 3/16/09 11:55am From: Doug from DC

A palindromic band name, good one.

Mon. 3/16/09 11:56am From: 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).

Mon. 3/16/09 11:56am From: 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?

Mon. 3/16/09 11:57am From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Mon. 3/16/09 12:00pm From: peter choyce

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

Mon. 3/16/09 12:00pm From: 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.

Mon. 3/16/09 12:00pm From: JCityJensen

richman in the morning - nice!

Mon. 3/16/09 12:01pm From: stingy d

i think i saw liz berg, but i got confused because she was in a costume

Mon. 3/16/09 12:01pm From: stingy d

also, evan funk davies was a star

Mon. 3/16/09 12:06pm From: postmanpaul

you're up there in the twinkling firmament with them stingy d, in my book.

Mon. 3/16/09 12:06pm From: 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
