Listener comments!

  12:28am
coalhard:

all is clear along the watch tower of my mind--where brain farts are a good thing--i just made that up ???
  12:30am
Joe McG:

There's a new year here. Somebody clean it up.
  12:42am
fleep:

The new year will be asking for the car keys before you know it.
  12:43am
Joe McG:

Better get this new year into a good school before it's too late.
  12:54am
Deeeeeeeeeeeee:

I'll take DJ's over robots any day. You've saved my music-loving soul.
  12:57am
Joe McG:

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! We loves you.
  12:58am
Deeeeeeeeeeeee:

And I wub yous :D
  1:05am
D. Blumin:

Who you callin b-gHEAD?
  1:07am
Joe McG:

Oops, did I say that on the radio?
  1:07am
coalhard:

good luck to Obama this year--the man is getting grey headed-but is ok-- morgan freeman got better with age too
  1:09am
Matt from Springfield:

Happy New Year Joe!
The Cookies! But how about Cookie and the Cupcakes, you get better sweets value per song...
  1:10am
Joe McG:

Happy New Year, Matt! I like cupcakes.
  1:11am
Julie:

Happy New Year, Joe!
  1:12am
Joe McG:

Happy happy, Julie! It's now 11 after 20.
  1:13am
Matt from Springfield:

Hi Julie!
Did you have a great New Year? I'm looking forward to another year of "binary" dates -- 1/1/11, 1/10/11, 1/11/11, and so forth.
  1:15am
Matt from Springfield:

I wished my Mom a happy 1:11 on 1:11 1/1/11! And don't forget that there's still October and November this year as well! To think that 12/12/12 will be the last same month-day-time for a while.
  1:18am
Matt from Springfield:

I had too many sweets this Christmas, you're just sending us into sugar shock now, Joe!
  1:27am
Joe McG:

I was going to play "Sugar, Sugar," but that might send you into sugar sugar shock.
  1:29am
Matt from Springfield:

How SWEET of you Joe. Sugar sugar honey honey shock is even more hazardous, particularly if you're in the sugar shack.
  1:34am
Joe McG:

Matt, you're a real fireball!
  1:37am
Matt from Springfield:

I'm on fire!
And brown, you can stick around!
  1:38am
Joe McG:

And if you're white, it's alright!
  1:42am
coalhard:

i'm white--but when power goes off my ass gets cold too
  1:44am
coalhard:

i lost power for a few minutes--ok now
  1:46am
Matt from Springfield:

Hi CH! Electrical power to the people! We're all the same, just about one hour of heat is the only thing separating us all from having a cold ass!
  1:47am
Matt from Springfield:

Whew! What a "smashing" ending on the Avengers 45!
  1:50am
Joe McG:

I confess I pumped up the volume a bit.
  1:55am
Matt from Springfield:

No regrets, I loved it! After all, a DJ is much more than a playlist and tracks--if you feel mixing it up heightens the listening experience, GO FOR IT! If a record is locked in a skip but it sounds kind of cool, KEEP IT GOING!
  1:56am
Joe McG:

Like the distortion on this 45, for example!
  1:58am
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, you're right! Nice distortin' there!

The logical extension of that philosophy at this station would probably be Kenny G--but you gotta admit People Like Us does a fantastic job selectively mixing existing sounds for our listening pleasure!
  1:59am
Joe McG:

Kenny G and PLU are geniuses. I bow before them.
  2:01am
Matt from Springfield:

Man, DJs at 'FMU??!! I'd take posters of all you up there, and place them on the ceiling above my bed, so I can bow to you whenever I get up :)
  2:01am
Matt from Springfield:

Sound wound up!
  2:07am
Matt from Springfield:

Yeah! The Joe McG and Dan Blumin show!
  2:13am
Matt from Springfield:

I always say it as "Nuh-Deer".
  2:13am
dnr:

NAD-EAR
  2:14am
D. Blumin:

Neigh-Deer
  2:15am
Matt from Springfield:

The Arab astronomers who developed the word probably would say it as "Naeh-Deer".
  2:16am
coalhard:

ford pinto
  2:16am
Joe D.:

too bad they hated our freedom.

great show McG - cheers
  2:17am
coalhard:

meant corvair'der
  2:17am
Joe D.:

and I like late period, more conventional Clear Spot Beefheart more than Trout Mask Replica Beefheart. This is an obvious product of my widely known bad taste.
  2:17am
Matt from Springfield:

This is why they developed IPA symbols -- I didn't mean it as Nuuuuuh-Deer, more like Näh-Deer, to use the German a-umlaut. But NO ONE knows how to use the DAMN symbols!
  2:18am
Matt from Springfield:

@CH: Unsafe at EVERY speed, to include 0.0 mph.
  2:22am
Joe McG:

Hey, Joe, don't worry, I think "TMR" is my least favorite CB album. Awaiting hecklers.
  2:27am
Joe McG:

Matt, you're right, let's talk about a schwa. Yikes!
  2:28am
coalhard:

morgan freeman has freckles--but i'm without heckles
  2:29am
Joe McG:

I sense a theme tonight, Coalhard. Pretty soon you're going to be asking to see Miss Daisy.
  2:38am
Matt from Springfield:

Very powerful vocal, a very American telling of "Matty Groves".

Is "Anti- " the label name? Love it!
  2:40am
Joe McG:

Yepper!
  2:45am
Julie:

Heya Matt Happy New Year! I am personally looking forward to 11-11-11
  2:47am
Julie:

Boy did I miss a whole lot of cookies I hope you boys saved me some
  2:48am
Matt from Springfield:

Heya Julie! I'm enjoying the triple dates that come with the beginning of a century.

Psst--check your Internet Options, there's plenty of cookies in there!
  2:49am
Matt from Springfield:

Van's the Man!
  2:51am
Julie:

I don't LIKE those kind of cookies..they are like the kind grandma makes that have unidentifiable pieces of fruit taking up most of the middle
  2:51am
Matt from Springfield:

I just got a 666 for the math answer (that's usually a Brian Turner answer!) And I got a 888 earlier tonight--something with triple numbers is electric tonight!
  2:52am
Kenzo:

Flashback: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/30665
  2:53am
Joe McG:

Bryce gets the best numbers.
  2:53am
Julie:

Oooh a rare Kenzo sighting. Joe you have the bestest listners
  2:54am
Matt from Springfield:

@Julie: Do you have peanut butter cookies with a Hershey Kiss in the center at Xmas time? That was my fav this year, as well as rolled crescent cookies with "Povitiza" walnut filling wrapped within them (Slovenian tradition! Yum!)
  2:55am
Julie:

Oh man that sounds really good. No we didn't. We didn't even have sugar cookies with red sprinkles. My family is LAME
  2:55am
Julie:

I particularly enjoy the reference on that link to the "bryce premium"
  2:56am
Matt from Springfield:

@Kenzo: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/30821
It's a "fake" April Fool's playlist, but it's even better!
  2:57am
Kenzo:

Ah, makes the Unicode support worthwhile. Hi Joe(s)!
  2:58am
Matt from Springfield:

@Julie: I heard a recent Dusty Show -- don't keep your comments under pressure, because apparently, they're EXPLODING! See, good idea to keep the comments open!
  2:59am
Julie:

thanks Matt
  3:00am
Matt from Springfield:

Wonderful show--have a great 2011 everyone!
Have fun @ the party Joe, Dan, Julie!
  4:01pm
AJ:

Thx for playing 'I Never Dreamed', one of my alltime faves!
