  9:12am
Bob:

Ahhh! Nothing better than starting a dreary morning with a little wireless coling newman...
  9:12am
bw:

hey Annie - I do.. my fren Tom (who did a great comics press called highwater books) helped them start it

hi everyone!! its cold and rainy out.. my fingers are still shaking..
  9:14am
still b/p:

The team name at that college must be the Cougars.

My fingers will be wet and cold when I ride home later today in the coming rain wallop.
  9:17am
karao:

brrr. good thing i work from home. morning, bw!
  9:17am
annie:

another joy-filled comic book!!
  9:18am
still b/p:

And of course, The Jeering Snickers = GNFAB

Hey There Mr. Ben Walker - great Monday morning rainy day set!

http://www.gnfab.com/

Good name for a band
  9:39am
Parq:

Superb!
  9:40am
still b/p:

Well, that's what I meant by GNFAB, but I had no idea there was a website.
I just figured it comes up so easy and often that we oughta have an abbreviated reference by now.
  9:40am
Parq:

The accu-playlist yields many GNFABs. My fave is a phrase Bryce once came up with - "Hamburger Mannequin".
  9:50am
JD:

Ironically, "G. N. Fab" is a good name for a solo act
  9:54am
bryan:

finally got a chance to listen to your show, mr. walker. very nice stuff.
  9:56am
Mooose:

8 tracks were on a continuous loop, and cassettes could mostly be put on auto-flip
Also, I used to stack records on my kid player and they'd drop one by one

It's my first time hearing your show- it's out of sight!
  9:58am
bw:

  10:10am
Cecile:

Annie, Arthur mgazine is grt!
  10:12am
annie:

cecile it is the best discovery i've made in a long time...
  10:13am
Cecile:

I used to pick up the paper copies at a local comic book store, back when hub still had titles he was following.
  10:14am
Pearly Sweets:

Pizzicato Five is a great way to start the week!
  10:15am
annie:

i think i heard they are not printing anymore just web site; the monday night show here promotes them.
  10:15am
bw:

hah PS - I didnt mean to speed this up so fast
  10:17am
Pearly Sweets:

No worries. It's the caffeine I skimped out on this morning.
  10:25am
Cecile:

yeah, that's what happened with the local paper here, The Rake. But I'm glad Arthur still has a Web presence.
  10:26am
annie:

oooooh. the rake.. a new one to add...
  10:32am
stranger:

it took a long time updating the realaudio but it's worse than before -_-
  10:36am
bw:

what real audio?
  10:37am
Cecile:

This is great, but I want people to start covering New Order's "Everything's Gone Green" now.
  10:43am
Cecile:

hey, what's the weather like where everyone's at?
Me: sunny but chilly.
  10:46am
Cecile:

aw, it does have a happy ending!
  10:46am
annie:

cecile, it is damp, light rain and about 47 out. the house is damp and i have a fire going..my seedlinds are struggling through this damp cold bit like real troopers!!!!
  10:47am
esch oder anarchie!:

Am I the only one who thinks Jessica looks just like Caprica 6?
  10:47am
Cecile:

Kind of like that Jane Seymour movie on Mackinac Island, Somewhere in TIme.

How could they not, Annie? You have that wonderful earth mama energy aimed at 'em!
  10:48am
Arthur Rimbaud:

Let's derange our senses!
  10:48am
annie:

they and i have constant conversations... and i pat them, too.... crazy hippie lady living on a hill.. wooohoo!
  10:49am
annie:

oh, and i saw my puppy yesterday. she has that cute little wagging puppy butt.. she is 4 weeks, and she is the timid one in the bunch.
  10:50am
Cecile:

oh, oh, oh.
Not too timid, I hope, though.
  10:50am
Carmichael:

It will be 75 - 80 deg. today, just like yesterday. Summer is here. Spent yesterday, running, drinking beer, mowing lawns and BBQing.
  10:51am
Pearly Sweets:

Today it is overcast with storms here and there. In the upper 70's high a low that will bring us down to the 30s tonight before ending the week in, most likely, the 80s. Ugh. Weather needs to just make up its mind.
  10:52am
Cecile:

man....70s.
  10:52am
annie:

charmichael. sounds wonderful!!! cecile, it took her a while to come to me.. about three minutes or so, thay are all howling and crying and running and jumping and being damn cute.. i thinks she'll be ok..
  10:53am
Pearly Sweets:

A very muggy and humid 70s. That's the thing about Florida. Is "70s" sounds nice, but half the time Florida weather finds a way to still make it miserable.
  10:53am
Cecile:

I think she will, too.
  10:54am
Cecile:

This sounds like "A Day In The Peter Singer Household"
  10:54am
F in VT:

Mid 40s -rode to work in a very light rain. Grass hasn't started growing yet. This past weekend was the last one for the ski slopes - I didn't get there, but they got 6" of powder for the last day. Just rained down in the valley
  10:54am
Cecile:

But, son, it is ok if you get down with the spider
  10:55am
dc pat:

ok, what the f-- is this??
  10:55am
Freddy:

What comic strip is this?
  10:58am
Cecile:

Nancy: The Ketamine Years
  11:01am
still b/p:

A big rough scrum of green oobleck on the radar slides this way to laugh at my bike-ride raingear. Would be a good day to watch burly water at the shore rocks. Heard spring peepers last night for the first time!
  11:01am
Parq:

Great. GNFAB wasn't enough; now I gotta look up Caprica 6 *and* Ketamine.

It's dark in NYC today, and humid, but currently no rain to speak of. Was pouring at about 9:40, but I'm pleased to note that it stopped before I ventured out. Annie, we want puppy pictures on FB *now*!
  11:01am
Cecile:

@F:
Sounds like Upper Michigan. Drive 5 miles and the weather's completely different.

I love that you said oobleck, b/p
  11:01am
dc pat:

man am I diggin the turn this playlist has taken since (and including) story of north america
  11:03am
Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!
  11:04am
Jøe Steele:

Awesome by the way.
  11:05am
annie:

  11:06am

Cecile:

Yeh! The grass's POV
  11:12am
Cecile:

oooh, green green grass of home!
  11:13am
Pearly Sweets:

Man, Mike Nesmith really wanted to write this song.
  11:15am
Cecile:

THANK YOU.
  11:16am
bw:

yer qwelcome

joe tex ok?
  11:17am
Cecile:

Perfect! I love soul singers singing country.
  11:18am
Parq:

Joe Tex did "Green Green Grass", eh? Gee, who didn't? I can remember a bar band in Vermont when I was a kid, at a ski resort, tearing this song up. Nice tie-in to the feature comic.
  11:18am
annie:

finally got my computer back from "the shop" newly formatted. i had no idea how large my rss feed list was til had to remember all of them and retag them.. wow.... lots of work. and i'm using firefox now.... parq, i promise i will get a picture by this weekend.. she is a doll. black strip down her back and white tail-tip. two black dots on her left jowl.. real sweet..
  11:22am
Carmichael:

I thought I recognized that voice. Where are the rest of the lads, Dee??
  11:22am
Cecile:

Parq, I remember someone doing a parody on Hee-Haw a zillion years ago, singing the line "on the porch is my papa, with a shotgun..."
  11:23am
annie:

sunshine breaking through clouds!!! totally unexpected! woohoo!
  11:26am
dc pat:

man, I'm preferring the rain today. It looks doomy out.
  11:30am
north guinea hills:

i wasn't paying attention to the playlist, but i believe it was the shudders that reminded me of a cleaner black tambourine.
  11:31am
Pearly Sweets:

I love a good "la la la" in a song. "We All Love Peanut Butter" by the One Way Streets has the same vibe as the beginning of this song. It is on one of those Back From the Grave comps. and is about everyone dying.
  11:32am
Parq:

Is anyone else finding that they have to refresh the playlist manually?
  11:33am
annie:

parq, mine refreshes by itself.. sorry to say..
  11:34am
Pearly Sweets:

Nope. Mine seems to be updating fine. A little lag in the chat. But the playlist is doing fine.
  11:41am
Parq:

Hokay. Is anyone else at work, and finding that they have to refresh their minds manually?
  11:45am
Carmichael:

Troggs!!!!!!
  11:46am
north guinea hills:

yeah, the play list is lagging. not that it matters, but it could indicate other problems... (incoherent words due to monday morning hangover)
  11:46am
bw:

Im sure the lag is my fault
sorry dear listener land.. Im slow today... ugh what a grey dreary day
  11:55am
Josh:

Jacuzzi Boys yeah!
