	1:41pm Krys O.: ↳ Robm @1:40 No can do. I pre-record my shows on my rudimentary laptop.
	1:42pm Robm: ↳ Krys O. @1:41 bummer oh well
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Krys O. @1:41 Can you record from analog sources, or do you digitize everything (or source it digitally) first?
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Mr. Weir Montage" by "Cast of Freaks & Geeks" I was all, wait, that's Lindsay's dad -- and I was right!
	1:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: SCTV, always brilliant comedy.
	1:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:43 Everything is digitized.
	👻 1:46pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:43 That makes me curious, how long do you work on a show?
	1:46pm tom tom the pipers son: catherine o' hara is such a joy, saw her in an episode of outer limits in the 90's as a housewife who accidentally shoots herself in the forehead and lives, there's a scene with her probing the bullethole with a pencil and she hallucinates
	1:46pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:46 Oh, wow!
	1:47pm Handy Haversack: I really recommend the F&G episode of Culture Shock.
	1:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:47 en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 1:49pm WR: Thank you for the Joe Flaherty feature.
	1:49pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:46 Not counting planning and selecting the files, the actual assembly is done over the course of two days. I work long hours and have an arduous commute.
	1:50pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @1:49 Thank you, WR! And hello dere!
	👻 1:51pm Ciggy: Hi Krys O ~ weeks ago I mentioned TCM and you banged out several secondary character actors Eugene Pallette, Walter Connolly, Aline McMahon, Frank McHugh. I didn't recognize their names, but once i saw their faces, I instantly knew who they were. Eugene Pallette as the father of Carole Lombard and Gail Patrick in My Man Godfrey (what a cast!) and Walter Connolly as the father of Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night. I don't recognize Aline McMahon and Frank McHugh.
	1:51pm tom tom the pipers son: catherine o'hara in the revelations of becka paulson www.youtube.com...
	1:53pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @1:51 Hi, Ciggy! Oh, I adore Aline McMahon. She had a fairly long career. Frank McHugh's laugh is infectious.
	👻 1:53pm fred: ↳ Song: "Purple People Eater" by "Judy Garland with Freddy... Is that where that Vikings D-line got their nickname?
	1:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @1:53 fred...how on earth do you know that...
	1:55pm Handy Haversack: ↳ fred @1:53 Yup.
	1:57pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:51 Cool! And with Steven Weber too.
	1:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @1:57 yes he's the generic headshot in picture frame that comes to life for her
	👻 2:00pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:54 Well, at some point I figured I had to go deeper into baseball and football to make sense of some idioms in American English. There are so many, but it's probably not obvious when you're a native speaker
	2:00pm Handy Haversack: ↳ fred @2:00 I.e., fred decided to go the whole nine yards.
	2:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:00 yeah it's not obvious, i don't know if it would be analogous to learning about wine and cheeses when learning french...
	👻 2:05pm fred: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:00 Though that would make no sense as a football reference (unless maybe to a Jets fan)
	2:07pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:05 that is an idiomatic saying though, i guess it assumes you have one yard already
	2:07pm chresti: Hi Krys and coasters!
	2:07pm Krys O.: Hello, chresti!
	2:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:07 oh sorry i misunderstood
	👻 2:09pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:05 I don't think there are many idioms about wine and cheese, but then again, it's not something I would notice as a native speaker
	👻 2:09pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "The Beau Brummels" by "Al Shaw and Sam Lee" Ahhh, that Portuguese quip is getting old (Family Guy does a good one). My father comes from Trás-os-Montes, Portugal But I still laugh
	2:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:09 right
	👻 2:11pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:08 What did you misunderstand?
	2:11pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:09 Shaw and Lee were vaudevillians.
	2:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:11 just that that the phrase is not used in football though it's derived from it
	👻 2:15pm WR: ↳ Song: "The Beau Brummels" by "Al Shaw and Sam Lee" Al and Sam segment was great. Don't recall hearing of them before. Thank you!
	👻 2:16pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Krys O and all!!!
	2:16pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:15 My pleasure, WR.
	2:17pm Krys O.: Hi, Will!
	2:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Five Different Girls" by "Pat Adiarte" Oh, yeah, Ho-John!
	👻 2:18pm WR: ↳ Ciggy @2:09 Thank you for pointing out the Portuguese quip. I didn't notice it. Now curious.
	👻 2:18pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:13 I thought the 9 part came from the innings in baseball and it was a pun mixing sports, but it looks like it's not a sport thing at all: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ fred @2:18 Huh. He shoots, he scores!
	👻 2:22pm fred: ↳ Song: "Disintegration Loops dlp 1.3" by "William Basinski" I love these loops, Jim the poet has often played them, it takes time to fully appreciate, but it's worth it
	2:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:18 ha! that's amazing
	2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:22 I heard them about 12 years ago. Quite entrancing.
	2:24pm tom tom the pipers son: nice mix krys...
	2:25pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:24 Thank you! I used to do them on my old show in the 80s.
	👻 2:26pm Ciggy: ↳ WR @2:18 Hey WR ~ Well I preparing lunch at the time but I think I heard it correctly
	👻 2:28pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:25 Basinski adds a soothing decay to the others sounds, inspired mix
	2:29pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:26 "We keep geese on our farm." "Do you have lots of geese?" "Yes, we have lots of geese." "How many geese do you have?" "We have so many geese that we have to keep them on our porch." "Then they must be Portuguese."
	2:30pm tom tom the pipers son: "billy" basinski as he was known hada connection to a gallery that i was familiar with in brooklyn and used to mc the gallery's yearly benefit, he had a pretty theatrical personality though unassuming... didn't expect the seriousness of disintegration loops coming from him, can't judge a book dot dot dot
	👻 2:36pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:29 Wow. Thanks Krys O ~ Here's the Family Guy clip on my Portuguese: youtu.be...
	👻 2:37pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:29 I know a few people from Brazil, so I was expecting a more offensive Portuguese joke Speaking of idioms and weird language variants, a Brazilian friend once bought a table from a Portuguese guy, and asked if the legs of the table could be unscrewed for transport. The guy said "sure" and brought a saw, turned out the Brazilian phrase meant "saw off" in Portugal
	2:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Being Different" by "Julia Murphy" i'd imagine films like this could be important today if the infgrastructure to make them existed geared towards kids and social media and bullying
	2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:40 Years ago I saw a banner near a local school, "Don't be mean behind your screen."
	👻 2:43pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:40 I think social media is both the problem and the infrastructure to solve it
	👻 2:43pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Bury Me" by "Alejandro Escovedo" Alejandro keeps pumping out new material. Big fan. Saw him a number of times in the '00s
	2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:43 Nice!
	2:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:43 that makes a lot of sense
	2:47pm chresti: re: idioms- Dead Soldier = empty bottle of beer, etc.
	👻 2:51pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 My big disappointment was buying tickets for Alejandro Escovedo where he was playing at Weill Recital Hall (I had no knowledge that it is within Carnegie Hall) I fell ill.
	👻 2:52pm fred: ↳ chresti @2:47 One stupid thing I like to do is translating American idioms literally. It falls flat but makes American coworkers laugh, which increases the awkwardness
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:51 Sorry to hear that.
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:52 LOL!
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys! Really lovely stuff. The collages were excellent.
	2:55pm spodiodi: thank you, Krys O! great show
	2:55pm Krys O.: Thanks so much for hanging out, y'all!
	2:56pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Ventura Highway" by "The Whims" Alligators are in the air- is what I always would hear
	2:56pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks krys, have a good week.... no fires to put out, i hope
	👻 2:56pm fred: Thanks Krys! Now go rehearse your H'n'F performance
	2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:56 I will keep my eyes peeled, tom tom.
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks Krys!
	👻 2:58pm Ciggy: Thanks Krys
	👻 3:00pm WR: Thank you! Krys!

In between these screen pyrotechnics there appears a simple line form gyrating in smooth rhythm.

	👻 2:09pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:05 I don't think there are many idioms about wine and cheese, but then again, it's not something I would notice as a native speaker
	👻 2:09pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "The Beau Brummels" by "Al Shaw and Sam Lee" Ahhh, that Portuguese quip is getting old (Family Guy does a good one). My father comes from Trás-os-Montes, Portugal But I still laugh
	2:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:09 right
	👻 2:11pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:08 What did you misunderstand?
	2:11pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:09 Shaw and Lee were vaudevillians.
	2:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:11 just that that the phrase is not used in football though it's derived from it
	👻 2:15pm WR: ↳ Song: "The Beau Brummels" by "Al Shaw and Sam Lee" Al and Sam segment was great. Don't recall hearing of them before. Thank you!
	👻 2:16pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Krys O and all!!!
	2:16pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:15 My pleasure, WR.
	2:17pm Krys O.: Hi, Will!
	2:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Five Different Girls" by "Pat Adiarte" Oh, yeah, Ho-John!
	👻 2:18pm WR: ↳ Ciggy @2:09 Thank you for pointing out the Portuguese quip. I didn't notice it. Now curious.
	👻 2:18pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:13 I thought the 9 part came from the innings in baseball and it was a pun mixing sports, but it looks like it's not a sport thing at all: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ fred @2:18 Huh. He shoots, he scores!
	👻 2:22pm fred: ↳ Song: "Disintegration Loops dlp 1.3" by "William Basinski" I love these loops, Jim the poet has often played them, it takes time to fully appreciate, but it's worth it
	2:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:18 ha! that's amazing
	2:23pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:22 I heard them about 12 years ago. Quite entrancing.
	2:24pm tom tom the pipers son: nice mix krys...
	2:25pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:24 Thank you! I used to do them on my old show in the 80s.
	👻 2:26pm Ciggy: ↳ WR @2:18 Hey WR ~ Well I preparing lunch at the time but I think I heard it correctly
	👻 2:28pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:25 Basinski adds a soothing decay to the others sounds, inspired mix
	2:29pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:26 "We keep geese on our farm." "Do you have lots of geese?" "Yes, we have lots of geese." "How many geese do you have?" "We have so many geese that we have to keep them on our porch." "Then they must be Portuguese."
	2:30pm tom tom the pipers son: "billy" basinski as he was known hada connection to a gallery that i was familiar with in brooklyn and used to mc the gallery's yearly benefit, he had a pretty theatrical personality though unassuming... didn't expect the seriousness of disintegration loops coming from him, can't judge a book dot dot dot
	👻 2:36pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:29 Wow. Thanks Krys O ~ Here's the Family Guy clip on my Portuguese: youtu.be...
	👻 2:37pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:29 I know a few people from Brazil, so I was expecting a more offensive Portuguese joke Speaking of idioms and weird language variants, a Brazilian friend once bought a table from a Portuguese guy, and asked if the legs of the table could be unscrewed for transport. The guy said "sure" and brought a saw, turned out the Brazilian phrase meant "saw off" in Portugal
	2:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Being Different" by "Julia Murphy" i'd imagine films like this could be important today if the infgrastructure to make them existed geared towards kids and social media and bullying
	2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:40 Years ago I saw a banner near a local school, "Don't be mean behind your screen."
	👻 2:43pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:40 I think social media is both the problem and the infrastructure to solve it
	👻 2:43pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Bury Me" by "Alejandro Escovedo" Alejandro keeps pumping out new material. Big fan. Saw him a number of times in the '00s
	2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:43 Nice!
	2:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:43 that makes a lot of sense
	2:47pm chresti: re: idioms- Dead Soldier = empty bottle of beer, etc.
	👻 2:51pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 My big disappointment was buying tickets for Alejandro Escovedo where he was playing at Weill Recital Hall (I had no knowledge that it is within Carnegie Hall) I fell ill.
	👻 2:52pm fred: ↳ chresti @2:47 One stupid thing I like to do is translating American idioms literally. It falls flat but makes American coworkers laugh, which increases the awkwardness
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:51 Sorry to hear that.
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:52 LOL!
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Krys! Really lovely stuff. The collages were excellent.
	2:55pm spodiodi: thank you, Krys O! great show
	2:55pm Krys O.: Thanks so much for hanging out, y'all!
	2:56pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Ventura Highway" by "The Whims" Alligators are in the air- is what I always would hear

	👻 2:56pm fred: Thanks Krys! Now go rehearse your H'n'F performance
	2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:56 I will keep my eyes peeled, tom tom.
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks Krys!

	👻 3:00pm WR: Thank you! Krys!
