	9:28am pierre: (Radio kisses are great)
	9:28am jen v.: loving the vibe this morning, trouble!
	9:29am Detroit Mac: Mark me "Present".
	9:39am listener mark: good morning trouble good morning everyone
	9:40am listener mark: present me as "Mark"
	9:41am Studio B: Was it something I said?
	9:44am trouble: welcome north guinea hills, good morning "Mark". studio B you know i am mad at you, talk to the hand!
	9:46am Mike East: Great painting this morning, Trouble!
	9:47am Fritz: I've had parts of "hooked on a feeling" floating in my mind ever since Duane played it a few weeks ago, and now you mention it. Am I going to have to have a lobotomy to get that song out of my mind?
	9:47am Studio B: Heaven knows no anger like love to hatred turned, yadda yadda yadda.
	9:48am emmagineering: really enjoying the set/ particularly this evan parker track / reminds me of trevor watts a bit. thank you trouble! who is the artist for this painting?
	9:49am emmagineering: random thought: also i really like that wfmu's addition question would NEVER ask me to carry a one.
	9:51am trouble: today's artist is isabelle pelissier!
	9:56am Kevin: play something raunchy and would get my turbo sexual Korean power on
	10:02am bob: what's the eletronic jam that keeps goin under all these others?
	10:02am Kim Jong Il: Only one human on earth has true turbo "love-to-love-ya beloved leader" Korean sexual power.
	10:05am Studio B: Too much ginseng turns you into a megalomaniacal despot. Better watch it, Kimmy.
	10:08am Cecile: Oh, yes. Lowe's pussed out.
	10:08am Lucas: HI Trouble and all listeners!!!
	10:09am glenn: did they ever. write them nasty letters, i say.
	10:09am Kurt: Is that show really that popular?
	10:09am Cecile: You know it's dumb. Detroit is rebuilding. I would think Lowe's would want their ads out there. :D
	10:10am jonathan: ah, the brilliance of the far right
	10:10am Cecile: TLC draws as much as some network shows. And it's an audience they want. Home Depot didn't cave to anti-gay bigots, looks like they can step in on this show as well. Hell, there are Muslim ladies working at my Home Depot.
	10:12am Cecile: advertisers want, I mean.
	10:13am listener mark: I go to Lowes to get the low price. Then head on over to Home Depot. They match the price, it's Home Depot policy.
	10:14am Derek in DC: An anti-Muslim, anti-gay group manages to convince an anti-union company to drop sponsorship of a TV show they don't like. I'm seeing some connections here.
	10:14am Kurt: Lowes and anyone else has the right to advertise or not wherever they choose despite what the PC crowd wants. And the muslims can have Detroit. Much of it looks like a war zone anyway.
	10:15am glenn: Ummmmm. Cecile, over to you.
	10:17am Cecile: Who is Dan Folger? He's great. (Not rising to the bait today.)
	10:19am Lucas: French adds are really, but really bad. That's my only contribution to the discussion.
	10:20am glenn: p.c. has nothing to do with it, doofus. they caved to stupid christians,who as far as i can tell are way more reactionary than the muslims that they are hating on.
	10:20am Cecile: Trouble, do you have some gentle robot-love instrumental music, preferably from Kompakt?
	10:20am earwax: Sounds like the Streisand effect. I never would have heard of the show or Lowes advertising on it. Now it's news because they cave into a small pressure group and Lowes looks like a bunch of dumbasses.
	10:21am Cecile: Hey, there's a great Streisand impersonator at the bar down from the street from my work next week. I should go check him out. St.Paul's slowly starting to get more interesting.
	10:22am still b/p: A handy adaptoid figure of speech from now on, thanks to such puzzling dumbassery: How Lowe can you go?
	10:24am Cecile: sbp, aw, but that then makes Nick Lowe look bad.
	10:24am Van in Dallas: Oh no! I missed not one but two of my favorite This Mortal Coil songs! Hi there Trouble!
	10:25am Lucas: Nice remix
	10:25am trouble: cecile i am stuck on the 4th floor, 2 floors away from the record library so today what you hear is what you get, sorry...bonjour lucas! hi van in dallas.
	10:26am Cecile: trouble, this is actually perfect. Very robotic and gentle
	10:26am glenn: well, he was married to carlene carter, and if he survived that, then he'll survive this.
	10:27am Cecile: On a happier note, I just ordered Mr. Cecile a good iPod speaker and some Star Wars chopsticks from Think Geek. You can't be unhappy when you order from Think Geek.
	10:27am Cecile: Good point, glenn.
	10:29am jill: Thanks for the tip, Cecile.
	10:30am glenn: nick should have married roseanne cash. that probably would have turned out better for everyone.
	10:31am Patrick: Good morning trouble! Sitting watching the cats play with a Pom Pom to the soundtrack provided by joe bataan. How's jersey?
	10:33am Cecile: Yes, glenn, and if I went back in time, I could have stopped the Lincoln assassination. But what if it brought about giant, impolite woolly mammoths? Or daisies that shot lasers when you tried to pick them?
	10:34am Fritz: Dearborn is the Muslim area. It borders Detroit but is way different from Detroit. Dearborn is wealthier than Detroit and is the largest Muslim city in the world that isn't in a predominantly Muslim country. The Muslims in Dearborn came here to be Americans and they should be treated with the same respect that any other American is given.
	10:34am Cecile: I read "The Veldt" when I was a kid. Don't mess with that stuff.
	10:35am listener mark: Don't WFMU DJs have armies of minions at their beck and call? In pastel colored jumpsuits and matching plastic hard hats?
	10:36am still b/p: You can getcha a Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter over thar, too. I'll have three cheese, tomato and carmelized Tribbles. (And Lowe Alpine gear makers are sayin' "No no, how HIGH can you go?!")
	10:37am Cecile: this is what I think the 'fmu minions are like, Listener Mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW2qnM_K6JY
	10:37am seang: all right
	10:37am Andrew: Crowd pleaser!
	10:38am still b/p: ...and chopped minions.
	10:38am Cecile: Right on, trouble. sbp, I had to draw the line at the carbonite ice cubes. But there's always Valentine's Day.
	10:39am Lucas: @Cecile: In taht case maybe is better not to have minions
	10:41am Minions: But then what will happen to the unemployment rate?
	10:41am earwax: @Cecile I will forever think of FMU listeners as looking just like that!
	10:41am trouble: fritz! you said it best, yes! how do patrick and cat chasing pom pom! all is swell here. icepack wants 4thousand legos from santa. i might have to move into an igloo to hold them all. what is santa bringing you this season?
	10:42am trouble: mark the minions are still sleeping.
	10:42am Cecile: I know! I started calling a certain fruit pah-pple after that...
	10:44am Cecile: I also have one large eye and a head shaped like a Twinkie.
	10:45am Cecile: Lucas, lol! At least they are enthusiastic.
	10:46am Andrew: Guitar birds...
	10:50am trouble: andrew: yes! indeed. i am loving this convo that has erupted about "slowe's" as we call it in our house.
	10:52am Lucas: Cecile: Yes, we must recognize this quality!
	10:53am Roberto: Co-worker was trying to get my attention while my headphones were on. Said I was listening to Television. Response: "oh, what are you watching?"
	10:54am Lucas: @Cecile: I say it beacuase I'm enthousiastic too but some people "prefer me not to interfer". You understand?
	10:55am Lucas: @Roberto:Lol, I would like television was that good (as Television)
	10:56am Kurt: glenn, it's nice to know it's ok to call christians stupid but not muslims.
	10:59am Cecile: Yeah, it's spirited. Too spirited for me.
	10:59am Roberto: Problem is, some people like being treated like shit.
	10:59am Joe B: Happy birthday Tom Verlaine!
	10:59am Respect Yourself: Put your hand over your mouth when you cough? Wonder what their response to the Kyoto protocol and the Durban agreement would be?
	11:00am Davice: I hate malls and what they stand for! Please patronize your local small businesses!
	11:00am MD: Don't get MAULED by da MALL!!!!
	11:00am earwax: Trouble: Lucky you. No mall xmas carols.
	11:01am Lucky: Yes. Oops!
	11:01am Detroit Mac: I don't watch the show and I don't shop in large chain stores whenever I can avoid it. As the Gang of 4 said, "Save me from the people who'd save me from my sins. They have muscles for brains"
	11:02am Jennique: Yay for crafts and G-L-I-T-T-E-R!!! Trouble, was it you that played those old ads for Legos? I swear I heard something to that effect on FMU. "Lego build it! Lego build it!"
	11:03am Davice: Speaking of shopping . . . I was checking out the "Black friday" videos on You Tube . . . wow, I never realized people could be such animals . . . ANIMALLS! Haha, I made a funny!
	11:05am earwax: I have about 10 christian channels on my sat dish 24/7, but no muslim ones. Seems a bit disingenuous to bitch about one program.
	11:05am robyn: oh this song makes me sad. :( RIP Trish
	11:05am earwax: Of course, what do I know. I just discovered I can't add single digits.
	11:06am VIvian: RIP Trisha Keegan.
	11:06am trouble: yes jennique, c'est moi! your glitter friend...
	11:07am Brian in UK: Hello trouble, finally caught Richter at Tate Modern. Well how prolific in quantity & style. Will need another visit. Twas a busy day, saw Las Acacias & Pharaoh Sanders in the same day.
	11:10am Davice: Je suis malade à la maison aujourd'hui, chose horrible va autour. Il est agréable d'avoir du mal à me tenir compagnie aujourd'hui!
	11:11am Lucas: J'espere c'est pas très grave Davice
	11:12am Davice: Just a nasty cold!
	11:13am Lucas: @davice: Oh, thisnis the season
	11:14am Davice: Picked it up from the little guy; children are germ carriers of the worst kind.
	11:15am Mark @ Work: earwax, read this http://www.fastcodesign.com/1665600/infographic-of-the-day-the-mega-companies-behind-90-of-media
	11:16am Lucky: I agree. "PC" is a code word. When I hear people use that term I just imagine they are saying, "I am a bigot."
	11:17am Cecile: Well, I always get into the spirit with a viewing of the Nutcracker. Either Mark Morris's "The Hard Nut" or whatever the loopy local Ballet of the Dolls puts on. I think this year is a co-production with a burlesque troupe. I love being a grownup.
	11:19am earwax: Mark: Thanks. I was aware that 90% of our media is controlled by a small number of companies and getting worse all the time. Thanks to SOPA we may not even have the web for different views. Personally, I try to get all of my news from the FMU comment boards. Much more reliable.
	11:19am gabrielBum: you know what's funny? The people promoting that sort of bigotry would not label themselves as PC.If anything, they would accuse their opponents of not allowing them to react against 'muslim propaganda' because of political correctness.
	11:20am Cecile: Also, BANANA!
	11:21am Cecile: @Brian, Pharoah is always a joy to see.
	11:23am trouble: good day brian in the uk, sounds like you are having a fab december so far...
	11:25am Record Faire Slave: this is a lovely set, trouble!
	11:25am Brian in UK: Ferry up the Bosphoros to Kanlica for some tasty yogurt. Hope to see Barry Flanagan's early work next week and maybe buy a Vacherin for Christmas.
	11:26am Kurt: Free speach really sucks if you have thin skin and are easily offended which appears to be the case with the PC crowd: "You can't say that, it's not nice." Blah! I say everyone sucks. We're all dirty rotten bastards.
	11:27am Brian in UK: Have you seen Vacherin's early work very exciting. (S)he worked mostly in cows milk!!
	11:27am listener mark: good manners and compassion still count
	11:29am Lucky: Listener Mark - Yes, real compassion for others is a prerequisite for having real compassion for one's self.
	11:30am Tiny Tim: God damn us, everyone.
	11:30am Mark @ Work: Does anyone know if this is a Lebanese singer ?
	11:31am Cecile: I believe Om is Egyptian.
	11:31am listener mark: They need a better sound engineer.
	11:31am βrian: Compassion Fruit is delicious. Makes an excellent sorbet.
	11:32am trouble: i am on the book of face for all of you who want to know about such: https://www.facebook.com/pages/This-is-the-modern-world-with-Trouble/138976469534262 i post movies, ideas, art links etc. please stop by and say bonjour!
	11:32am Whitney H.: Learning to love yourself is the GREATESTLOVEOFALL!
	11:33am Mark @ Work: trouble I prefer friendface !
	11:34am Brian in UK: If all world leaders could ululate together what a better place it would be. That and smiling.
	11:34am JS: Thanks for posting Isa's paintings, Trouble! Loving the show, as always. Listeners, you can see more of Isabelle's art at www.isabellepelissier.com
	11:35am tom: it's TIC & TOC
	11:35am tom: not JIC & JOC
	11:36am Patrick: trouble, loving today's artist, very George Condo meets a thrift store.
	11:38am Lucas: @Trouble: I'll add you Trouble to my frineds!
	11:39am trouble: ooops thanks tom. what horror poor typography has wrought!
	11:39am Jennique: Quote from my friend's mom: "Oh I don't do that MyFace or Spacebook."
	11:39am Cecile: now, here's a question. has anyone tried to make the jump from day job to working artist at, um, an advanced age and succeeded? Apart from the usual examples. Also, what kind of schooling do you need? I need to know, for, uh, a friend.
	11:40am trouble: hey js, happy to see you. thanks lucas! yes patrick don't you love her?
	11:40am Jennique: Cecile, if you can figure that out, please PLEASE let me in on it.
	11:41am gabrielBum: Cecile, i want to know too
	11:41am Cecile: also my friend wants to know if it's weird to cold-call an art school and ask an admissions person to look at their work.
	11:41am blip: Jennique, if this was fb, I would "like" your comment. Is that lame?
	11:42am Jennique: blip - no!
	11:43am Cecile: jennique, my friend definitely will! :D
	11:44am βrian: Collioure is a beautiful seaside village.
	11:45am blip: hey Trouble.... will you post musical bits as well?
	11:45am still b/p: It shouldn't be weird to call an admissions person and ask if that works...if they or someone else would take a look and have an introductory talk.
	11:46am Mark @ Work: So whats for lunch today. My office smells like roasted chicken. I need ideas.
	11:46am trouble: yes blip that sounds like a fine idea! musique it is!
	11:47am earwax: Lunch: veg chili and cornbread
	11:47am Jennique: This song Little Miss is meant to be played whilst looking at this set of paintings by isabelle Pelissier.
	11:48am Cecile: now my friend wants to know if it's better to contact a community or tech school or a proper art institute or both. Also, what are the kids using as portfolios these days - CD-Rs or real portfolios?
	11:48am JS: Hey Trouble, What's your Facebook moniker?
	11:51am listener mark: penne rigate with marinara sauce w/steamed vegetables on the side
	11:52am trouble: https://www.facebook.com/pages/This-is-the-modern-world-with-Trouble/138976469534262
	11:52am Mark @ Work: Mumm chili sounds good.
	11:53am Van in Dallas: Perhaps Thai curry chicken with steamed rice of course.
	11:53am JS: Thanks, Trouble!
	11:54am stu: Hei Trouble Happy Santa Lucia season!
	11:56am trouble: hey stu!

	9:47am Fritz: I've had parts of "hooked on a feeling" floating in my mind ever since Duane played it a few weeks ago, and now you mention it. Am I going to have to have a lobotomy to get that song out of my mind?
	9:47am Studio B: Heaven knows no anger like love to hatred turned, yadda yadda yadda.
	9:48am emmagineering: really enjoying the set/ particularly this evan parker track / reminds me of trevor watts a bit. thank you trouble! who is the artist for this painting?
	9:49am emmagineering: random thought: also i really like that wfmu's addition question would NEVER ask me to carry a one.
	9:51am trouble: today's artist is isabelle pelissier!
	9:56am Kevin: play something raunchy and would get my turbo sexual Korean power on
	10:02am bob: what's the eletronic jam that keeps goin under all these others?
	10:02am Kim Jong Il: Only one human on earth has true turbo "love-to-love-ya beloved leader" Korean sexual power.
	10:05am Studio B: Too much ginseng turns you into a megalomaniacal despot. Better watch it, Kimmy.
	10:08am Cecile: Oh, yes. Lowe's pussed out.
	10:08am Lucas: HI Trouble and all listeners!!!
	10:09am glenn: did they ever. write them nasty letters, i say.
	10:09am Kurt: Is that show really that popular?
	10:09am Cecile: You know it's dumb. Detroit is rebuilding. I would think Lowe's would want their ads out there. :D
	10:10am jonathan: ah, the brilliance of the far right
	10:10am Cecile: TLC draws as much as some network shows. And it's an audience they want. Home Depot didn't cave to anti-gay bigots, looks like they can step in on this show as well. Hell, there are Muslim ladies working at my Home Depot.
	10:12am Cecile: advertisers want, I mean.
	10:13am listener mark: I go to Lowes to get the low price. Then head on over to Home Depot. They match the price, it's Home Depot policy.
	10:14am Derek in DC: An anti-Muslim, anti-gay group manages to convince an anti-union company to drop sponsorship of a TV show they don't like. I'm seeing some connections here.
	10:14am Kurt: Lowes and anyone else has the right to advertise or not wherever they choose despite what the PC crowd wants. And the muslims can have Detroit. Much of it looks like a war zone anyway.
	10:15am glenn: Ummmmm. Cecile, over to you.
	10:17am Cecile: Who is Dan Folger? He's great. (Not rising to the bait today.)
	10:19am Lucas: French adds are really, but really bad. That's my only contribution to the discussion.
	10:20am glenn: p.c. has nothing to do with it, doofus. they caved to stupid christians,who as far as i can tell are way more reactionary than the muslims that they are hating on.
	10:20am Cecile: Trouble, do you have some gentle robot-love instrumental music, preferably from Kompakt?
	10:20am earwax: Sounds like the Streisand effect. I never would have heard of the show or Lowes advertising on it. Now it's news because they cave into a small pressure group and Lowes looks like a bunch of dumbasses.
	10:21am Cecile: Hey, there's a great Streisand impersonator at the bar down from the street from my work next week. I should go check him out. St.Paul's slowly starting to get more interesting.
	10:22am still b/p: A handy adaptoid figure of speech from now on, thanks to such puzzling dumbassery: How Lowe can you go?
	10:24am Cecile: sbp, aw, but that then makes Nick Lowe look bad.
	10:24am Van in Dallas: Oh no! I missed not one but two of my favorite This Mortal Coil songs! Hi there Trouble!
	10:25am Lucas: Nice remix
	10:25am trouble: cecile i am stuck on the 4th floor, 2 floors away from the record library so today what you hear is what you get, sorry...bonjour lucas! hi van in dallas.
	10:26am Cecile: trouble, this is actually perfect. Very robotic and gentle
	10:26am glenn: well, he was married to carlene carter, and if he survived that, then he'll survive this.
	10:27am Cecile: On a happier note, I just ordered Mr. Cecile a good iPod speaker and some Star Wars chopsticks from Think Geek. You can't be unhappy when you order from Think Geek.
	10:27am Cecile: Good point, glenn.
	10:29am jill: Thanks for the tip, Cecile.
	10:30am glenn: nick should have married roseanne cash. that probably would have turned out better for everyone.
	10:31am Patrick: Good morning trouble! Sitting watching the cats play with a Pom Pom to the soundtrack provided by joe bataan. How's jersey?
	10:33am Cecile: Yes, glenn, and if I went back in time, I could have stopped the Lincoln assassination. But what if it brought about giant, impolite woolly mammoths? Or daisies that shot lasers when you tried to pick them?
	10:34am Fritz: Dearborn is the Muslim area. It borders Detroit but is way different from Detroit. Dearborn is wealthier than Detroit and is the largest Muslim city in the world that isn't in a predominantly Muslim country. The Muslims in Dearborn came here to be Americans and they should be treated with the same respect that any other American is given.
	10:34am Cecile: I read "The Veldt" when I was a kid. Don't mess with that stuff.
	10:35am listener mark: Don't WFMU DJs have armies of minions at their beck and call? In pastel colored jumpsuits and matching plastic hard hats?
	10:36am still b/p: You can getcha a Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter over thar, too. I'll have three cheese, tomato and carmelized Tribbles. (And Lowe Alpine gear makers are sayin' "No no, how HIGH can you go?!")
	10:37am Cecile: this is what I think the 'fmu minions are like, Listener Mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW2qnM_K6JY
	10:37am seang: all right
	10:37am Andrew: Crowd pleaser!
	10:38am still b/p: ...and chopped minions.
	10:38am Cecile: Right on, trouble. sbp, I had to draw the line at the carbonite ice cubes. But there's always Valentine's Day.
	10:39am Lucas: @Cecile: In taht case maybe is better not to have minions
	10:41am Minions: But then what will happen to the unemployment rate?
	10:41am earwax: @Cecile I will forever think of FMU listeners as looking just like that!
	10:41am trouble: fritz! you said it best, yes! how do patrick and cat chasing pom pom! all is swell here. icepack wants 4thousand legos from santa. i might have to move into an igloo to hold them all. what is santa bringing you this season?
	10:42am trouble: mark the minions are still sleeping.
	10:42am Cecile: I know! I started calling a certain fruit pah-pple after that...
	10:44am Cecile: I also have one large eye and a head shaped like a Twinkie.
	10:45am Cecile: Lucas, lol! At least they are enthusiastic.
	10:46am Andrew: Guitar birds...
	10:50am trouble: andrew: yes! indeed. i am loving this convo that has erupted about "slowe's" as we call it in our house.
	10:52am Lucas: Cecile: Yes, we must recognize this quality!
	10:53am Roberto: Co-worker was trying to get my attention while my headphones were on. Said I was listening to Television. Response: "oh, what are you watching?"
	10:54am Lucas: @Cecile: I say it beacuase I'm enthousiastic too but some people "prefer me not to interfer". You understand?
	10:55am Lucas: @Roberto:Lol, I would like television was that good (as Television)
	10:56am Kurt: glenn, it's nice to know it's ok to call christians stupid but not muslims.
	10:59am Cecile: Yeah, it's spirited. Too spirited for me.
	10:59am Roberto: Problem is, some people like being treated like shit.
	10:59am Joe B: Happy birthday Tom Verlaine!
	10:59am Respect Yourself: Put your hand over your mouth when you cough? Wonder what their response to the Kyoto protocol and the Durban agreement would be?
	11:00am Davice: I hate malls and what they stand for! Please patronize your local small businesses!
	11:00am MD: Don't get MAULED by da MALL!!!!
	11:00am earwax: Trouble: Lucky you. No mall xmas carols.
	11:01am Lucky: Yes. Oops!
	11:01am Detroit Mac: I don't watch the show and I don't shop in large chain stores whenever I can avoid it. As the Gang of 4 said, "Save me from the people who'd save me from my sins. They have muscles for brains"
	11:02am Jennique: Yay for crafts and G-L-I-T-T-E-R!!! Trouble, was it you that played those old ads for Legos? I swear I heard something to that effect on FMU. "Lego build it! Lego build it!"
	11:03am Davice: Speaking of shopping . . . I was checking out the "Black friday" videos on You Tube . . . wow, I never realized people could be such animals . . . ANIMALLS! Haha, I made a funny!
	11:05am earwax: I have about 10 christian channels on my sat dish 24/7, but no muslim ones. Seems a bit disingenuous to bitch about one program.
	11:05am robyn: oh this song makes me sad. :( RIP Trish
	11:05am earwax: Of course, what do I know. I just discovered I can't add single digits.
	11:06am VIvian: RIP Trisha Keegan.
	11:06am trouble: yes jennique, c'est moi! your glitter friend...
	11:07am Brian in UK: Hello trouble, finally caught Richter at Tate Modern. Well how prolific in quantity & style. Will need another visit. Twas a busy day, saw Las Acacias & Pharaoh Sanders in the same day.
	11:10am Davice: Je suis malade à la maison aujourd'hui, chose horrible va autour. Il est agréable d'avoir du mal à me tenir compagnie aujourd'hui!
	11:11am Lucas: J'espere c'est pas très grave Davice
	11:12am Davice: Just a nasty cold!
	11:13am Lucas: @davice: Oh, thisnis the season
	11:14am Davice: Picked it up from the little guy; children are germ carriers of the worst kind.
	11:15am Mark @ Work: earwax, read this http://www.fastcodesign.com/1665600/infographic-of-the-day-the-mega-companies-behind-90-of-media
	11:16am Lucky: I agree. "PC" is a code word. When I hear people use that term I just imagine they are saying, "I am a bigot."
	11:17am Cecile: Well, I always get into the spirit with a viewing of the Nutcracker. Either Mark Morris's "The Hard Nut" or whatever the loopy local Ballet of the Dolls puts on. I think this year is a co-production with a burlesque troupe. I love being a grownup.
	11:19am earwax: Mark: Thanks. I was aware that 90% of our media is controlled by a small number of companies and getting worse all the time. Thanks to SOPA we may not even have the web for different views. Personally, I try to get all of my news from the FMU comment boards. Much more reliable.
	11:19am gabrielBum: you know what's funny? The people promoting that sort of bigotry would not label themselves as PC.If anything, they would accuse their opponents of not allowing them to react against 'muslim propaganda' because of political correctness.
	11:20am Cecile: Also, BANANA!
	11:21am Cecile: @Brian, Pharoah is always a joy to see.
	11:23am trouble: good day brian in the uk, sounds like you are having a fab december so far...
	11:25am Record Faire Slave: this is a lovely set, trouble!
	11:25am Brian in UK: Ferry up the Bosphoros to Kanlica for some tasty yogurt. Hope to see Barry Flanagan's early work next week and maybe buy a Vacherin for Christmas.
	11:26am Kurt: Free speach really sucks if you have thin skin and are easily offended which appears to be the case with the PC crowd: "You can't say that, it's not nice." Blah! I say everyone sucks. We're all dirty rotten bastards.
	11:27am Brian in UK: Have you seen Vacherin's early work very exciting. (S)he worked mostly in cows milk!!
	11:27am listener mark: good manners and compassion still count
	11:29am Lucky: Listener Mark - Yes, real compassion for others is a prerequisite for having real compassion for one's self.
	11:30am Tiny Tim: God damn us, everyone.
	11:30am Mark @ Work: Does anyone know if this is a Lebanese singer ?
	11:31am Cecile: I believe Om is Egyptian.
	11:31am listener mark: They need a better sound engineer.
	11:31am βrian: Compassion Fruit is delicious. Makes an excellent sorbet.
	11:32am trouble: i am on the book of face for all of you who want to know about such: https://www.facebook.com/pages/This-is-the-modern-world-with-Trouble/138976469534262 i post movies, ideas, art links etc. please stop by and say bonjour!
	11:32am Whitney H.: Learning to love yourself is the GREATESTLOVEOFALL!
	11:33am Mark @ Work: trouble I prefer friendface !
	11:34am Brian in UK: If all world leaders could ululate together what a better place it would be. That and smiling.
	11:34am JS: Thanks for posting Isa's paintings, Trouble! Loving the show, as always. Listeners, you can see more of Isabelle's art at www.isabellepelissier.com
	11:35am tom: it's TIC & TOC
	11:35am tom: not JIC & JOC
	11:36am Patrick: trouble, loving today's artist, very George Condo meets a thrift store.
	11:38am Lucas: @Trouble: I'll add you Trouble to my frineds!
	11:39am trouble: ooops thanks tom. what horror poor typography has wrought!
	11:39am Jennique: Quote from my friend's mom: "Oh I don't do that MyFace or Spacebook."
	11:39am Cecile: now, here's a question. has anyone tried to make the jump from day job to working artist at, um, an advanced age and succeeded? Apart from the usual examples. Also, what kind of schooling do you need? I need to know, for, uh, a friend.
	11:40am trouble: hey js, happy to see you. thanks lucas! yes patrick don't you love her?
	11:40am Jennique: Cecile, if you can figure that out, please PLEASE let me in on it.
	11:41am gabrielBum: Cecile, i want to know too
	11:41am Cecile: also my friend wants to know if it's weird to cold-call an art school and ask an admissions person to look at their work.
	11:41am blip: Jennique, if this was fb, I would "like" your comment. Is that lame?
	11:42am Jennique: blip - no!
	11:43am Cecile: jennique, my friend definitely will! :D
	11:44am βrian: Collioure is a beautiful seaside village.
	11:45am blip: hey Trouble.... will you post musical bits as well?
	11:45am still b/p: It shouldn't be weird to call an admissions person and ask if that works...if they or someone else would take a look and have an introductory talk.
	11:46am Mark @ Work: So whats for lunch today. My office smells like roasted chicken. I need ideas.
	11:46am trouble: yes blip that sounds like a fine idea! musique it is!
	11:47am earwax: Lunch: veg chili and cornbread
	11:47am Jennique: This song Little Miss is meant to be played whilst looking at this set of paintings by isabelle Pelissier.
	11:48am Cecile: now my friend wants to know if it's better to contact a community or tech school or a proper art institute or both. Also, what are the kids using as portfolios these days - CD-Rs or real portfolios?
	11:48am JS: Hey Trouble, What's your Facebook moniker?
	11:51am listener mark: penne rigate with marinara sauce w/steamed vegetables on the side
	11:52am trouble: https://www.facebook.com/pages/This-is-the-modern-world-with-Trouble/138976469534262
	11:52am Mark @ Work: Mumm chili sounds good.
	11:53am Van in Dallas: Perhaps Thai curry chicken with steamed rice of course.
	11:53am JS: Thanks, Trouble!
	11:54am stu: Hei Trouble Happy Santa Lucia season!
