	2:11am jamesegio: "The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.” – Sylvia Plath
	2:12am Blissland: Why is thursday always karaoke day?
	2:13am egould: ↳ Blissland @2:12 Because Wednesdays are open mic night. And Fridays are 80's Dance Party.
	2:13am alanSixº: ↳ jamesegio @2:11 nice quote
	2:14am Blissland: ↳ egould @2:13 I guess. The open mic nite here used to be tuesday, but thursday is and always has been karaoke
	2:16am Blissland: I too hate sucking at karaoke.
	2:16am egould: ↳ Blissland @2:14 C'mon. Let's get up there and sing "Islands In The Stream' together.
	2:17am ami ad: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:04 the ocean is full of it.
	2:17am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:16 sure noone wants to suck at it but ya cant beat yourself up about a bad karaoke nite
	2:17am Blissland: ↳ egould @2:16 I don't even go out anymore
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:17 Well you can, but it's not advisable. I was very impressed with how you handled that.
	2:21am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:18 being unqualified makes it easier
	2:21am Blissland: The main problem I have now, well there are 2 main problems. Since I was forced to leave kingston it's a very long drive to woodstock, and secondly I no longer know anyone there and everyone is of a younger generation and I can't relate. I guess I should have called you, Alan.
	2:21am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:17 me neither lol
	2:22am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:21 Yeah that's a good point. And not being serious about it
	2:25am Blissland: ↳ Blissland @2:22 oh sorry, I thought you were still talking about karaoke. Yes, same applies to psychiatry. In fact it's a pre-requisite
	2:28am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:25 ah yes unqualified at advice - but dont get upset about a bad karaoke nite cause lifes gonna throw worse things to be upset about - if you do karaoke it has to be fun - thats th point of it - a bad note, or out of key? eh, it should still be a fun nite
	2:28am Spikey BXL: ↳ Song: "Bucovina (Soca Bogle Mix)" by "Shantel" standing desk --> dancing desk
	2:30am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:28 Yeah no, I'm not upset at all about karaoke. That was your other patient. I don't know that I've ever had a really bad night of singing anyway. It's usually alienation that messes me up
	2:35am Ike: ↳ blublamd @2:01 Ha, yikes. Honestly that might be how a family member contracted HIV back in the 80s and then died, so I'll pass. I mean, I know you can use clean needles, but still, it's the principle of the thing.
	2:36am Maggie Hertz!: Corny?? Come on! This is FX tv at it's prime!
	2:36am Blissland: I knew someone who used to shoot up cocaine and he got aids and eventually died from it
	2:37am spodiodi: oh, Magoo, you've done it again
	2:39am Ike: The Bear makes me SO ANXIOUS
	2:40am alanSixº: ↳ Ike @2:39 haha, the show itself or the bear that shows up on occasion?
	2:43am ami ad: when a bear opens a can of vodka soda in the woods...
	2:44am ami ad: Thank you, DJ. take it easy.
	2:45am alanSixº: ↳ ami ad @2:43 hehe
	2:47am Idea Lupino: Falafel and Chili work for me. no one gives a shit about karaoke.
	2:47am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "850 Bryant" by "spiritual state" haha - 850 Brant is the address of the cop shop in sf ...
	2:48am spodiodi: thanks for the killer tunes, Alan! see you next week
	2:49am Blissland: I had chili with my penne. It was delicious
	2:49am spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @2:47 er, 850 Bryant St., San Francisco = Hall of Justice :-B
	2:51am spodiodi: homer eating donuts in hell = forcing me to listen to The Mollusk
	2:54am egould: ↳ alanSixº @2:17 Thanks Alan. Good music. Good advice. Even better phone answering skills.
	2:55am Spikey BXL: You made my first hour at the office much better than expected. Thanks Alan, have a nice weekend!
	2:56am alanSixº: hey thanx everyone that was a fun nite! appreciate you
	2:57am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:56 Thanks Alan. Just send the prescriptions to my pharmacy
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Happy Groundhog Day, everyone!
	2:58am spodiodi: Groundhog, groundhog, KFHP!
	3:01am jamesegio: much enjoyed!

	2:07am spodiodi: ↳ Blissland @2:06 ⭐️
	2:08am Ken From Hyde Park: 201-209-9368
	2:11am jamesegio: "The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.” – Sylvia Plath
	2:12am Blissland: Why is thursday always karaoke day?
	2:13am egould: ↳ Blissland @2:12 Because Wednesdays are open mic night. And Fridays are 80's Dance Party.
	2:13am alanSixº: ↳ jamesegio @2:11 nice quote
	2:14am Blissland: ↳ egould @2:13 I guess. The open mic nite here used to be tuesday, but thursday is and always has been karaoke
	2:16am Blissland: I too hate sucking at karaoke.
	2:16am egould: ↳ Blissland @2:14 C'mon. Let's get up there and sing "Islands In The Stream' together.
	2:17am ami ad: ↳ Spikey BXL @2:04 the ocean is full of it.
	2:17am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:16 sure noone wants to suck at it but ya cant beat yourself up about a bad karaoke nite
	2:17am Blissland: ↳ egould @2:16 I don't even go out anymore
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:17 Well you can, but it's not advisable. I was very impressed with how you handled that.
	2:21am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:18 being unqualified makes it easier
	2:21am Blissland: The main problem I have now, well there are 2 main problems. Since I was forced to leave kingston it's a very long drive to woodstock, and secondly I no longer know anyone there and everyone is of a younger generation and I can't relate. I guess I should have called you, Alan.
	2:21am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:17 me neither lol
	2:22am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:21 Yeah that's a good point. And not being serious about it
	2:25am Blissland: ↳ Blissland @2:22 oh sorry, I thought you were still talking about karaoke. Yes, same applies to psychiatry. In fact it's a pre-requisite
	2:28am alanSixº: ↳ Blissland @2:25 ah yes unqualified at advice - but dont get upset about a bad karaoke nite cause lifes gonna throw worse things to be upset about - if you do karaoke it has to be fun - thats th point of it - a bad note, or out of key? eh, it should still be a fun nite
	2:28am Spikey BXL: ↳ Song: "Bucovina (Soca Bogle Mix)" by "Shantel" standing desk --> dancing desk
	2:30am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:28 Yeah no, I'm not upset at all about karaoke. That was your other patient. I don't know that I've ever had a really bad night of singing anyway. It's usually alienation that messes me up
	2:35am Ike: ↳ blublamd @2:01 Ha, yikes. Honestly that might be how a family member contracted HIV back in the 80s and then died, so I'll pass. I mean, I know you can use clean needles, but still, it's the principle of the thing.
	2:36am Maggie Hertz!: Corny?? Come on! This is FX tv at it's prime!
	2:36am Blissland: I knew someone who used to shoot up cocaine and he got aids and eventually died from it
	2:37am spodiodi: oh, Magoo, you've done it again
	2:39am Ike: The Bear makes me SO ANXIOUS
	2:40am alanSixº: ↳ Ike @2:39 haha, the show itself or the bear that shows up on occasion?
	2:43am ami ad: when a bear opens a can of vodka soda in the woods...
	2:44am ami ad: Thank you, DJ. take it easy.
	2:45am alanSixº: ↳ ami ad @2:43 hehe
	2:47am Idea Lupino: Falafel and Chili work for me. no one gives a shit about karaoke.
	2:47am spodiodi: ↳ Song: "850 Bryant" by "spiritual state" haha - 850 Brant is the address of the cop shop in sf ...
	2:48am spodiodi: thanks for the killer tunes, Alan! see you next week
	2:49am Blissland: I had chili with my penne. It was delicious
	2:49am spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @2:47 er, 850 Bryant St., San Francisco = Hall of Justice :-B
	2:51am spodiodi: homer eating donuts in hell = forcing me to listen to The Mollusk
	2:54am egould: ↳ alanSixº @2:17 Thanks Alan. Good music. Good advice. Even better phone answering skills.
	2:55am Spikey BXL: You made my first hour at the office much better than expected. Thanks Alan, have a nice weekend!
	2:56am alanSixº: hey thanx everyone that was a fun nite! appreciate you
	2:57am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:56 Thanks Alan. Just send the prescriptions to my pharmacy
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Happy Groundhog Day, everyone!
	2:58am spodiodi: Groundhog, groundhog, KFHP!
