	1:53pm jg: Coincidently a few blocks away when you were talking about Mabel’s house , Rex. Decided to drive by. Great street adjacent to snug harbor Sailor’s home. An unremarkable house. But cool.
	♥ 1:54pm yerfriendpaul: Breaker Breaker, looking for the Butterman. This is Coffee Pot movin on down the toad. 10-4 good buddy

	♥ 1:59pm yerfriendpaul: Ha ha!
	1:59pm Rex: Don't forget "I'm The Girl On The Billboard" by Joyce Paul!
	2:00pm Cooh John: Didn't someone do an answer song to 6 days?
	2:01pm The Butterman: Paul, I have seen thousands of frogs on the North Dakota highway at 3 AM. Just had to run right through them! Yuk. Or I was trippin. Not sure which it was. I think they were real.
	2:01pm Cooh John: 🙋‍♂️DjLorraine
	♥ 2:02pm Pedro in Arlington: My footage of a super rare recent Kay Adams performance, DC 3 years ago. Great lady: youtu.be...
	2:05pm Mister Dobalina: M O M M A!
	2:06pm Mister Dobalina: I woke up with a bad case of the whim whams!
	2:07pm davefromtoronto: i hope those aren't her measurements...
	♥ 2:07pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: I was just walking my dog outside while carrying my portable emergency weather radio. Did I hear you say you're in St. George right now, Rex? Hope you're on the water if you are! I definitely recommend a trip down to Great Kills beach when the show's done. One of my secret summer spots. I've been there on the hottest and busiest summer weekends, and it's still always pretty empty. During high tide, you can swim out pretty far and tread for a while. Aren't really many strong waves. You get to spin around while looking at awesome sights, like NJ, NY, other beaches, Freedom Tower, the wildlife and nature back on Great Kills beach. The swimming area is protected during summer too with lifeguards. Best way to get there, of course, is Staten Island Railway with a bicycle! B/c SIR is mostly free, I also wind up going to get pizza on the way back too.
	2:08pm Hubig Pie: Cocky, ....but good!
	2:08pm Listener Bop Monroe: boin, kay do, boin!!!
	2:09pm Rex: Thanks for the tips, Rosey! I've been in St George for a couple of years and still discobvering lots of cool stuff...
	2:12pm text: text
	2:13pm davefromtoronto: davefromtoronto
	♥ 2:13pm JohnEBGood: Love the tenor sax. The sound is so good from my blue tooth speaker.
	♥ 2:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & that Gittar tone. Can only imagine what kinda Gittar & Amp that even was...
	♥ 2:17pm JohnEBGood: Staten Island is beautiful!
	2:19pm Andrew Hollywood: I'm so dumb, this song is making me smarter.
	2:20pm egould310: If things are gonna’ stat to get lunkheaded, I’m gonna’ start drinking bourbon. Cheers!
	2:21pm davefromtoronto: count drac! my fave of all time!!!
	♥ 2:21pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Sure thing. Great Kills was one of the only trips I did last summer, or really in the entire past year. Bike, ferry, train, bike (I also technically bike from St. George ferry to Stapleton so I don't have to pay the fare). There's a bus stop right at the entrance along Hylan Boulevard. It's really too bad NYC buses are absolutely pathetic at accommodating bicycles and none are available at the entrance. Would be very convenient and nice. But in any case, you won't have an issue finding parking if you drive into the park. There are also a couple of food trucks there usually too. First time I went there to hike with my dog, I had absolutely no idea that the vast majority of the park is off limits because of radioactivity! They've been working on it. And when I'm done, I've taken the train backwards a stop to Great Kills to enjoy Nonna's pizza and cool off and recharge inside. Ha, that is some very funny timing with your Staten Island pizza references. I was just about to say that I still haven't jumped off at Dongan Hills on the way back to get Lee's. Went to Denino's once at least. Wish I knew a ton more about Staten Island. What a fascinating place. There are some very interesting nature and wildlife areas, some of the very best and isolated in the city. And with some fascinating history too, especially with Robert Moses. I think you can find some old bungalows near some of the beaches. I think basically all of the Rockaway ones are long gone. Staten Island really is beautiful in many areas. It is so cool to be alone and surrounded by nature and wildlife while being able to say you're in NYC.
	2:22pm Andres: I love and laugh this version of Bo Diddley. I’ll go with love!
	2:23pm The Butterman: I pay extra for the lunkhead rock and roll.
	2:24pm Don F.: Johnny Bowtie does Bow Diddley.
	2:27pm Rex: Rosey- St George is really a well kept secret. Traded in our cramped Brooklyn apartment for a cool, old 3 story house near the harbor. Lots of amazing old homes around here and some interesting people fixing them up!
	2:27pm Dennis Diken: Yeah, Rex!
	2:27pm michael: hey , those were the same lyrics as “the Last Time” by the Rolling Stones. who was first????
	2:28pm Rex: Denny's Den in the den!
	♥ 2:29pm JohnEBGood: I'm from Jersey City and my friend Eddy had family that had a bungalow on SI. I believe it was South Beach! And your close to Bayonne!!
	2:36pm Listener Bop Monroe: drown AND sufficate? why not both?
	♥ 2:37pm JohnEBGood: Wow Bayonne Butch! A radio legend!
	2:38pm The Butterman: As one who shaves his head, I have mixed feelings about this song.
	2:38pm egould310: The haircut he was describing is termed a “skullett”.
	2:42pm Mailman Tom: I bought a can of chili beans today
	2:45pm ledzeppelinsucks: I have this can of Black Cherry 'Recess' Hemp water and it was $6.00 for a 355 mililtre can. Need the god damned Hubble Telescope to read the label.
	2:46pm Rex: For all the members of the Fool's Paradise "Under-Achievers Club"!!
	2:46pm The Butterman: Another classic from Rex’s premium ‘turn the hi-fi down”. So good!
	2:47pm Cooh John: Is this the Al Jardine Tikis?
	2:47pm egould310: @Mailman Tom, after this set of lunkhead rock n roll, you’ll be too dim to figure out how to open a can of chili beans.
	2:50pm P-90: The tearful “waning moments of the program”...sniff
	♥ 2:50pm JohnEBGood: Hey Mailman, That's a great opening line!
	2:51pm davefromtoronto: this one's border line lunkhead.
	2:52pm Xangoir: Birdwatching with my chickens and Neighbors geese right now. Most greatest song I’ve heard today
	2:53pm P-90: “you’ll cheer Pam Grier!” I know I always do...
	2:53pm The Butterman: Out in the backyard lookin at a vulture above. I got binoculars for my bird watching.
	2:54pm The Butterman: Xangoir, you’re bird- sitting.
	2:55pm davefromtoronto: scream blackula scream! saw that at the drive-in back in the day.
	♥ 2:55pm DjLorraine: Wait until i tell my sleep Dr it's not the lack of oxygen at night, it's the lunkhead rock n roll
	♥ 2:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Strictly Culture Vultures we are here... [checks notes] ...sorry - Vulture Cultures...
	♥ 2:55pm Squints: Your .45 ain't deadly unless the material is killer.
	2:56pm The Butterman: Lost the vulture, spyed a Mylar balloon. Great, more litter.
	2:56pm davefromtoronto: lunkhead rock causes oxygen deprivation to the brain...
	2:56pm Rex: Until next week when we come to you again from the rocky shores of scenic St George! Thanks for lending a lobe! Thanks to Ruth in the Booth for beaming this mess out into space!
	♥ 2:57pm DjLorraine: Thank you Rex great show
	2:58pm P-90: Kudos and thanks, @ Ruth-in-Booth!
	2:59pm egould310: Goodbye Cosmic Man. Thanx Rex!
	2:59pm The Butterman: Sad it’s over. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
	2:59pm Zetti: Thank you!
	2:59pm ledzeppelinsucks: On a scale of 18 to 37 I give the show a 31.6 and the message board 22.3.
	3:00pm P-90: Good bye, Cosmic Carradine... And many thanks as always, Rex!
	♥ 3:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ROOOTH Thank You Rex !

Ha, that is some very funny timing with your Staten Island pizza references. I was just about to say that I still haven't jumped off at Dongan Hills on the way back to get Lee's. Went to Denino's once at least. Wish I knew a ton more about Staten Island. What a fascinating place. There are some very interesting nature and wildlife areas, some of the very best and isolated in the city. And with some fascinating history too, especially with Robert Moses. I think you can find some old bungalows near some of the beaches. I think basically all of the Rockaway ones are long gone. Staten Island really is beautiful in many areas. It is so cool to be alone and surrounded by nature and wildlife while being able to say you're in NYC.
