	12:18pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:17 regarding L.A. fires
	12:19pm tom tom the pipers son: hiya threemoons...
	12:21pm Michael 98145: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:17 I imagine the smoke is pretty bad where they are ... Hellos, Everyone
	12:23pm Michael 98145: ↳ Michael 98145 @12:21 ... and no tennis activities
	12:24pm fred: ↳ Michael 98145 @12:23 They both showed up on Ken's playlist (and indeed no tennis today)
	12:25pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @12:24 oh great...
	12:25pm Mary Wing: Howdy Michael 98145 and fred!
	🛎 12:25pm Handy Haversack: Franco said a yellow sky and a rain of ash.
	12:26pm tom tom the pipers son: the fire near them is huge...
	12:26pm still b/p: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 Anxious realization of the ol' song line, "Oh, I've seen..."
	12:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 raining ash is worrisome
	🛎 12:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If they don't get evacuated that'll be good. Breathing - a plus...
	12:28pm Marie in Chicago: I'm digging the set. I hope Chresti and Franco are ok
	12:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ fred @12:24 Well, that's good
	🛎 12:29pm David (in London): Tom, Marie, fred, Michael: hellos all round.
	12:30pm Marie in Chicago: I always think, safety first... so, like, I would prolly evacuate pre-emptively
	12:30pm Michael 98145: ↳ David (in London) @12:29 Aloha
	12:30pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:29 Special greets to David. 'Allo!
	12:31pm tom tom the pipers son: hi david...!
	🛎 12:31pm egould: I moved to Venice Beach in November 1993, during the Old Topanga Fire in Malibu. I walked down to the boardwalk, and looked across the bay, and the mountains were glowing orange in the night. Choking smoke everywhere. In the haze, a shootout between Speedway Crips and some other gang erupted. I ran back to my apartment and thought, “I have moved to Hell!”
	12:31pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:30 Go sit in some damn chain restaurant.
	12:31pm Michael 98145: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:27 Wouldn't be surprised if their power has been cut
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ egould @12:31 wow, I can kind of visualize that. I think in another life I could love LA...
	🛎 12:33pm WR: Hello Mary and folks. Joining in on the fire watch.
	🛎 12:33pm Handy Haversack: I think that fire would have to burn through Pasadena to get to them. Not saying it can't, just that that's a lot of urban territory.
	🛎 12:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: My first world problem: the wind pulled loose the bracket on my house where the internet cable connects, leaving it dangling low over the street. Called 911, who sent the police, who called Central Hudson electric utility, who expediently solved the problem: "OK, this is an easy fix. We'll cut the wire. Problem solved." Me: "Hey, where went my internet?" Using phone hotspot for the time being.
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 good news
	🛎 12:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Disaster du jour in Paradise. They make the point that the way of Nature is for periodic fires from the Hills to the Ocean ...but no - we want a major metropolis there...
	🛎 12:35pm Phillippe: Howdy! This was my pick for best album. Love it to death!
	12:35pm Mary Wing: ↳ WR @12:33 Hiya WR!
	12:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 last night there was a lot of reportage about san gabriel mtns being lit....they're in the valley...parts of pasadena have burned including a jewish center
	🛎 12:36pm David (in London): ↳ egould @12:31 Damn, that must have been truly unnerving. We don't get many wildfires in London, but I remember my dad telling me about when he was evacuated during The Blitz, he got off the train in Hertfordshire and looked back towards London to see the whole night sky lit up orange as the city burned.
	12:36pm still b/p: Satellite image shows smoke plume streaming/blowing southwest into ocean yesterday, but ground video from the area and Franco's description suggest varied effects in the region. www.youtube.com...
	🛎 12:36pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 The Eaton Canyon fire is in Pasadena. It’s a rager.
	12:37pm Mary Wing: ↳ Phillippe @12:35 Howdy Phillippe! Jessica Pratt was your favorite album for 2024? Will have to explore it further.
	🛎 12:38pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:36 Yeah, was checking the scary map: www.fire.ca.gov...
	🛎 12:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Major fire when I lived in SantaBarbara - the sun all red thru the pollution - traffic lights blinking - smoke billowing thru the street ...yes, apocalyptic.
	🛎 12:38pm Phillippe: ↳ Mary Wing @12:37 Definitely worth a focused listen
	12:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @12:36 i think the blitz is embedded in londoners dna even generation later
	🛎 12:39pm Phillippe: ↳ egould @12:31 Lordy, that had to be terrifying
	12:40pm tom tom the pipers son: generations later...
	🛎 12:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:38 ...but with 9/11 in mind - worse things have happened...
	12:43pm tom tom the pipers son: in terms of a social bond that needed to happen because of the blitz devastation on london
	🛎 12:43pm David (in London): ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:39 Yes, absolutely. There are still, even now, the odd vacant plot that's never been touched. Used to be one next to my father in law's house in Southwark.
	🛎 12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Godzilla ~ A-Bomb... Dresden was turned into an ashtray...
	12:45pm Michael 98145: And now the bastards are trying to eliminate Ukraine
	12:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @12:43 oh really...meant to say consciousness instead of dna... i'm woozy...bad cold
	12:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:36 I know my dad travelled through London a lot but I'm not sure if it was during that time or after it. He never talked about it. He was going from Ireland to Norfolk and Essex. My Aunties also worked there, I believe post-blitz.
	🛎 12:46pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mary and 100%ers!
	🛎 12:47pm David (in London): ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:46 Bonus points to you for the Essex shout-out!
	12:47pm Michael 98145: ↳ chris in the redwoods @12:46 Welcome!
	🛎 12:47pm David (in London): Hey Chris.
	12:47pm still b/p: I attended a celebration of life gathering the other day for someone born in London in World War II. One of the daughters said, "Yes, the bombs and all that."
	🛎 12:47pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Stage 1" by "Pocket Dimension" Oh , this is good. Hello all.
	🛎 12:48pm Phillippe: Gotta run as soon as soon as I arrived but will be listening. Hopefully the last appointments I have to drive my bride to. Thank you Mary. Peace and love, y’all!
	🛎 12:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...cue Lehrer's VonBraun song...
	🛎 12:49pm Dan S: Hi Mary, fellow Whatevers, I've been listening, I'm a bit too busy to comment, but I am enjoying your second show of 2025!
	🛎 12:50pm David (in London): ↳ Hubig Pie @12:47 Wotcha Hubig.
	12:51pm Mary Wing: Hiya chris in the redwoods, Hubig, and Dan S!
	12:52pm chresti: Hi Mary and wingdingers! Been listening and staring at the fire activity map..
	12:52pm Michael 98145: ↳ chresti @12:52 Stay safe !
	12:52pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "CD-R" by "Toro Y Moi" I like these lyrics
	12:53pm still b/p: ↳ chresti @12:52 Is smoke really all headed out to sea, or drifting and hanging your way?
	🛎 12:53pm Hubig Pie: ↳ David (in London) @12:50 'ello, guvnah.
	12:53pm tom tom the pipers son: i wonder if londoners/ britains self identification because of the blitz was exploited in a twisted way by farange and the brexiters
	12:54pm Mary Wing: ↳ chresti @12:52 Hi chresti! Sending love to you and everyone in California!
	12:54pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:47 hee hee hee. I've made a point of remembering those areas because of a wonderful trip I took there with my dad once.
	12:54pm spodiodi: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:08 what's good, Andrew? greetings, David (in London), egould
	12:55pm tom tom the pipers son: @ mary...enjoying the show...
	12:55pm adamdoesit: Hello Mary and wingèd ones. chresti, are you guys safe and well watered?
	12:56pm Marie in Chicago: Yay, Chrest. and Franc. are alright!
	12:56pm TDK60: Hi deejay Mary. Whatever is going on?
	12:56pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @12:52 oh hi chresti...
	🛎 12:56pm David (in London): ↳ adamdoesit @12:55 Yo adam! I raise a large GP in your general direction.
	12:56pm spodiodi: ↳ chresti @12:52 hi chresti!\\// we're all glad to know that you're safe
	🛎 12:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ David (in London) @12:56 David can bench press four general practitioners!
	12:58pm Mary Wing: Hey there adamdoesit and TDK60! Chugging along with tech issues, but we are all here together!
	🛎 12:58pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:58 Ha!
	12:59pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Melancholia" by "Asher Gamedze & The Black Lungs" I really like this (amidst a sea of many songs kinda like this...). I see now that all the songs today are from 2024...
	1:00pm adamdoesit: ↳ David (in London) @12:56 Back atcha, David. I remember the first time I was in London, circa 1992, noticing those bombed-out lots. Seemed many fewer on more recent visits. And speaking of the Blitz, I recommend director Steve McQueen's recent movie Blitz (2024) to all and sundry.
	1:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:59 i hear that too...
	1:05pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:00 Oh, I wanna see that. I think Steve McQueen is great. Have loved all his movies (and the Amazon TV series) so far.
	1:06pm Marie in Chicago: Hey tom tom
	1:07pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:05 what tv series did he do...?
	1:08pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:05 Me too. I haven't summoned the emotional fortitude for Occupied City (2023, 4 1/2 hours) yet. It awaits.
	1:08pm chresti: ↳ spodiodi @12:56 hi spodi! thanks, just ashes and smoky down in san gabriel- so far the winds seem calmed down
	1:10pm spodiodi: ↳ chresti @1:08 glad to hear it!
	🛎 1:10pm WR: ↳ chresti @1:08 semi-good news, Chresti. Ash and soot in the air is not good to breath but hopefully the calmed winds slows or stops the spread of the fire.
	1:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:08 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
	1:11pm spodiodi: nice first hour, Mary!
	1:11pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:08 have you wet down your house?
	🛎 1:12pm David (in London): ↳ chresti @1:08 Re-Chrestikins!
	1:13pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:07 Hey, it's called "Small Axe" which I think comes from a traditional Jamaican saying...
	1:15pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:08 Hi, I either overlooked this or forgot about it but I would love to see this. I'm guessing it's great.
	1:15pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:13 thanks marie
	🛎 1:19pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Been a bit too busy to keep up with comments, but wanted to jump in and say that a good friend of mine marked himself safe from the LA fires. He's also smack dab in the middle of a move and doesn't have a car so he's currently hunkered down; they haven't evacuated his area yet. As far as the Blitz goes...reminds me of my own up close and personal experiences on 9/11....
	🛎 1:19pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Or as someone on the Interwebs pointed out: "LA is burning, huge parts of VA don't have water because of a snowstorm, and Puerto Rico has had power and water issue outages forever...maybe WE are the shithole country here."
	1:21pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" Mary. Have you played The Styrenes' version of In C before?
	🛎 1:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" From their bandcamp page: "Ut Gret is a progressive group from Louisville, KY who incorporate elements of rock, jazz, classical, zeuhl, world musics and minimalism to build their musical landscape."
	1:21pm Mary Wing: ↳ TDK60 @1:21 No, not yet; have not found a good copy of it.
	1:23pm Mary Wing: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @1:19 Yeah, but let's take over Greenland for our "safety," right? </sarcasm>
	1:23pm TDK60: ↳ Mary Wing @1:21 I have a CD I could lend ya! I live in NYC (part of the Jersey City Metro).
	1:24pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:15 shuer @)
	1:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @1:21 heard that at a record fair i believe
	1:25pm Mary Wing: ↳ TDK60 @1:23 Oh cool, let me check the station's library first; if I can't find it there, maybe send me an mp3?
	1:25pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" This really makes me think of New York City (which I love)
	🛎 1:25pm egould: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" Reminiscent of the chorus from Steve Winwood's "Valerie".
	1:26pm chresti: ↳ adamdoesit @12:55 Franco went to the nursery across the street to get a sprayer (our house is a tinder box) thanks.
	1:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:25 in those terms, makes me think of two paintings...broadway boogie woogie by mondrian and brooklyn bridge by joseph stella
	🛎 1:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chresti @1:26 Good Lord. Stay safe! I had a look at the fire map that someone tagged up here; didn't realize that there were also fires in Sacramento? Just texted my cousin in LA also. Late Mom's bestie lives in Sacramento and texted her also.
	1:29pm Michael 98145: ↳ Mary Wing @1:23 cripes
	🛎 1:33pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Mary Wing @1:23 Blargh. The stupid absolutely burns.
	1:34pm adamdoesit: ↳ chresti @1:26 Stay safe. I look forward to the day when this is just another of Franco's stories.
	1:34pm tom tom the pipers son: just got this...trump posted a map of north america including canada with red white and blue stars and stripes
	🛎 1:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Presumed bird's-eye view : www.facebook.com...
	🛎 1:35pm egould: Isn't Greenland icy, barren and barely habitable? I think he wants to buy Iceland, which ironically thaws, has vegetation and is quite habitable.
	1:35pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:28 oh wow, I love stuff like that, I mean associations. I'll check those paintings out toute suite (but have to finish a work task right now)
	1:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:35 .... ; )
	1:37pm TDK60: ↳ chresti @1:26 Keep it cool and vigilant. \\//
	1:38pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:28 I've kinda been half visualizing Broadway down by Canal..
	🛎 1:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: The stupid stuff is always just a distraction to deflect attention to the crimes they're committing.
	1:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:38 back in the day, did a lot of shopping down that way
	1:39pm Marie in Chicago: I'm just ignoring/not engaging with Chump's more outrageous statements. (PS, world, his elevator, or shall I say, escalator, does not go all the way to the top)
	🛎 1:41pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 THIS. And the news outlets eat it up and ignore the elephants in the room.
	1:41pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:39 My MO has been to refuse to be baited by it. I spent too long living in fear and anger last time around. The wicked king gets enough free rides without my having to give him an office in my mind.
	🛎 1:41pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" And i am loving this song. Back to work; just heard back from my cousin in LA; all good there.
	1:42pm spodiodi: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 hear, hear
	🛎 1:44pm Hubig Pie: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 Zactly.
	1:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:39 www.moma.org... whitney.org...
	1:46pm Paul: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 This.
	🛎 1:47pm egould: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 And it's all stupid stuff.
	🛎 1:48pm Phillippe: ↳ chresti @1:26 Hey chresti good to hear you are safe thus far! Stay that way! My best to you and Franco!
	🛎 1:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 "attention away from," I meant to type.
	1:51pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 Yeah, as John Mullaney said, during his first term, he was like a horse in a hospital--it was hard not to keep looking at what he was doing--now I know what to expect and I minimize the attention I give. PS: I think Don Jr is such a big idiot it is almost funny.
	1:55pm Mary Wing: ↳ Paul @1:46 Hello Paul!
	1:56pm chresti: oh hi tom tom, re-Davidkins!, Michael 98145, Marie in C, still b/p. errbody!
	1:56pm Charles: Hiya Mary, I'm not always able to catch the show so I don't know if you often do the thing where you play many covers of a song? I like that so I was wondering if we'd get that today.
	🛎 1:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 One could sat that is ALL of American politics -- its very nature and method. It's just more brutalist and absurd now. But a difference of degree, not kind.
	1:57pm Mary Wing: ↳ Charles @1:56 Hi Charles! Yes, that thing with the covers is coming in about 20 minutes, after this song.
	1:58pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:45 Hey Tom, I love both of those. Thank you so much for sharing. The Mondrian is amazing to me--so witty and such an encapsulation. Then, the Stella painting--what an embodiment. Words fail me. I'm sure there have been a lot of shows of NYC in paintings. I'd love to see one of those, post-1900. A contemporary one would be I'm sure very interesting.
	🛎 1:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:56 could *say
	2:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:58 there are different versions of the stella...they get more abstract
	2:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @1:56 Glad ur both alright, Chresti
	2:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:56 yes chresti...glad you're both ok....
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:33 Here in Uptown Kingston, my connections are underground. They survives a lot of local power outages (1-2 a year)
	2:01pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:56 As long as all wealth keeps flowing upward, we're good to go. Right? Cripes, again.
	🛎 2:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:01 I wish my neighborhood had utilities underground. Unsightly poles and wires all over the place.
	2:04pm Webhamster Henry: In C is always fun, thanks for trotting it out now and then. Search results indicate this is your 11th playing!
	2:05pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:04 Yeah, but you have the FDR and Vanderbilt estates (and not far from MIlls Mansion..) Hyde Park is not without amenities!
	2:06pm Mary Wing: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:04 Hi Henry! Happy new year! I think I have played more than 11 by now, surely? Did I really start this task last year?
	2:06pm Michael 98145: Holy crap -- Cal is currently fighting 35 wildfires ...
	2:08pm northguineahills: thought this would come on one 3ok, but if you played the original, that would only leave room for one cover!
	🛎 2:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:05 A hiker recently reported a dead body in the Hudson along Vanderbilt estate, so we got that going on, too.
	2:11pm Mary Wing: ↳ northguineahills @2:08 HI NGH! I started the monthly episode of In C because of that!
	2:15pm TDK60: I have to leave during an In C. Oh well. I'm heading out into the bitter wind, to the food grocery. And I will stretch my eyebrows, get them in shape, to raise them at the higher prices. Back in a bit.
	2:16pm spodiodi: woo
	🛎 2:16pm chris in the redwoods: <applause> :)
	2:16pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @2:15 Good, caught it ....
	2:17pm tom tom the pipers son: always leaves me a bit breathless
	🛎 2:18pm David (in London): Always imagine that you have to train like a marathon before doing In C: good diet, rest, vitamin supplements, increasing your stamina day by day etc,
	2:19pm northguineahills: Mary’s ring made me think my toaster dinged.
	2:21pm still b/p: ↳ David (in London) @2:18 Woman from Belgium just finished running a marathon distance every day for a year. She's ready to to do In C every day for this year!
	2:22pm Charles: Ah so it does have a name, it's not The Thing! I'm often just able to tune in really late, it shows my ignorance!
	2:23pm Mary Wing: ↳ Charles @2:22 "The thing with the covers" works for me! Also "covers up the wazoo" when it takes up the full hour, heh.
	2:24pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "All Blues Hail Mary" by "Joe Henry" Listening distractedly, I thought, huh, only three versions of Miles Davis' "All Blues?" Probably because they're so long. And what makes them a Hail Mary? Maybe she ran out of time? But no. Hail Mary!
	🛎 2:24pm David (in London): ↳ Mary Wing @2:23 I'm going to start an upholstery shop called 'Covers Up the Wazoo'.
	🛎 2:26pm Handy Haversack: Mona filled in for Clay this morning and played "It's the End of the World as We Know It," and I referred the Glisteners to your November show, Mary. Hopefully a few stick around!
	2:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @2:24 ha ha...!
	🛎 2:28pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "All Blues Hail Mary" by "Tom Jones" Ah, Tom Jones, you gotta admire the guy for his longevity as a singer.
	2:28pm Mary Wing: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:26 Aw thanks! Can I take this opportunity to say that Mona is an AWESOME DJ! Her shows just blow me away when I can tune in from my job, seriously.
	2:31pm adamdoesit: ↳ David (in London) @2:24 If I've managed to cover up the wazoo before I leave the house, my day's off to a good start.
	🛎 2:32pm βrian: ↳ adamdoesit @2:31 Is it legal to carry a concealed wazoo?
	2:34pm adamdoesit: ↳ βrian @2:32 Not at all. If arrested, any legal defense is necessarily a hail mary.
	2:36pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Cat Bit Lip" by "Vernal Scuzz" me likey. I like the band name too
	🛎 2:36pm egould: ↳ Song: "Cat Bit Lip" by "Vernal Scuzz" Could be a Bond Theme song.
	2:40pm Ike: I'm back from a meeting! What did I miss? I'm glad the playlist didn't get burned up by a wildfire or blown away by the wind.
	🛎 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ βrian @2:32 ...I think it's illegal to not cover it...
	2:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "All Threes" by "Bright Eyes" lyrics here: something like "elon musk, I'd kill him in an alley over Five Guys....love it" (though, seriously, I don't condone violence--I just appreciate the words/ideas)
	🛎 2:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tho Wazoo sounds some place in the middle of some large midwestern state ...in which case they may have their custom obscure to me here...
	2:43pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:42 Oh, and "love it" was not in the song lyric
	2:44pm Mary Wing: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:42 Heh, I think it was "kill him in an alley with five dice" actually.
	🛎 2:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& in which case 'Up The Wazoo' would be a regional affirmation...
	2:48pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 oh, really? I like my distortion better @)
	2:48pm Ike: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:43 Are you thinking of Kalamazoo perhaps?
	🛎 2:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:48 Mondegreen !
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 it was dice... and i'm wondering who was so beautiful before? ...cannot tell what that song is saying!
	🛎 2:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ike @2:48 ...after all it's a Jungle out there & a Kalawazoo in here ...not to say up in here...
	🛎 2:51pm egould: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" I like Manu Chao.
	2:52pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" thought some of the vocals sounded familar
	🛎 2:52pm egould: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 Yahtzee!
	2:52pm Mary Wing: Hi coelacanth! Beats me, maybe it's just stream of consciousness?
	🛎 2:52pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" hell yeah. great new version! cool.
	2:53pm Mary Wing: ↳ egould @2:52 Ha ha haa! Death by Yahtzee, my new band name!
	🛎 2:53pm Handy Haversack: All WFMUs hail Mary! Many thanks, Mary!
	🛎 2:53pm egould: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:43 en.wikipedia.org...
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mary Wing @2:52 i thought maybe it was a biblical reference? ...and i hope he's not saying elon musky was so beautiful before. i don't think so!
	🛎 2:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: I suspected Wazoo was a smart phone app. Sure enough: "The purpose of the Wazoo app is to connect drivers with clean and accessible restrooms throughout their workday." Thanks, Mary!
	2:54pm Mary Wing: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:53 Maybe he was implying Elon was in white because he is trying to be our new saviour?
	2:55pm chresti: I remember yahtzee!
	2:55pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks mare...!
	🛎 2:55pm βrian: "I wanna be an airborne kitty!" www.wfmu.org...

	12:25pm Mary Wing: Howdy Michael 98145 and fred!
	🛎 12:25pm Handy Haversack: Franco said a yellow sky and a rain of ash.
	12:26pm tom tom the pipers son: the fire near them is huge...
	12:26pm still b/p: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 Anxious realization of the ol' song line, "Oh, I've seen..."
	12:27pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 raining ash is worrisome
	🛎 12:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If they don't get evacuated that'll be good. Breathing - a plus...

	12:28pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ fred @12:24 Well, that's good
	🛎 12:29pm David (in London): Tom, Marie, fred, Michael: hellos all round.

	12:30pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:29 Special greets to David. 'Allo!
	12:31pm tom tom the pipers son: hi david...!
	🛎 12:31pm egould: I moved to Venice Beach in November 1993, during the Old Topanga Fire in Malibu. I walked down to the boardwalk, and looked across the bay, and the mountains were glowing orange in the night. Choking smoke everywhere. In the haze, a shootout between Speedway Crips and some other gang erupted. I ran back to my apartment and thought, “I have moved to Hell!”
	12:31pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:30 Go sit in some damn chain restaurant.
	12:31pm Michael 98145: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:27 Wouldn't be surprised if their power has been cut
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ egould @12:31 wow, I can kind of visualize that. I think in another life I could love LA...
	🛎 12:33pm WR: Hello Mary and folks. Joining in on the fire watch.
	🛎 12:33pm Handy Haversack: I think that fire would have to burn through Pasadena to get to them. Not saying it can't, just that that's a lot of urban territory.
	🛎 12:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: My first world problem: the wind pulled loose the bracket on my house where the internet cable connects, leaving it dangling low over the street. Called 911, who sent the police, who called Central Hudson electric utility, who expediently solved the problem: "OK, this is an easy fix. We'll cut the wire. Problem solved." Me: "Hey, where went my internet?" Using phone hotspot for the time being.
	12:33pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 good news
	🛎 12:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Disaster du jour in Paradise. They make the point that the way of Nature is for periodic fires from the Hills to the Ocean ...but no - we want a major metropolis there...
	🛎 12:35pm Phillippe: Howdy! This was my pick for best album. Love it to death!
	12:35pm Mary Wing: ↳ WR @12:33 Hiya WR!
	12:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 last night there was a lot of reportage about san gabriel mtns being lit....they're in the valley...parts of pasadena have burned including a jewish center
	🛎 12:36pm David (in London): ↳ egould @12:31 Damn, that must have been truly unnerving. We don't get many wildfires in London, but I remember my dad telling me about when he was evacuated during The Blitz, he got off the train in Hertfordshire and looked back towards London to see the whole night sky lit up orange as the city burned.
	12:36pm still b/p: Satellite image shows smoke plume streaming/blowing southwest into ocean yesterday, but ground video from the area and Franco's description suggest varied effects in the region. www.youtube.com...
	🛎 12:36pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 The Eaton Canyon fire is in Pasadena. It’s a rager.
	12:37pm Mary Wing: ↳ Phillippe @12:35 Howdy Phillippe! Jessica Pratt was your favorite album for 2024? Will have to explore it further.
	🛎 12:38pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:36 Yeah, was checking the scary map: www.fire.ca.gov...
	🛎 12:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Major fire when I lived in SantaBarbara - the sun all red thru the pollution - traffic lights blinking - smoke billowing thru the street ...yes, apocalyptic.
	🛎 12:38pm Phillippe: ↳ Mary Wing @12:37 Definitely worth a focused listen
	12:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @12:36 i think the blitz is embedded in londoners dna even generation later
	🛎 12:39pm Phillippe: ↳ egould @12:31 Lordy, that had to be terrifying
	12:40pm tom tom the pipers son: generations later...
	🛎 12:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:38 ...but with 9/11 in mind - worse things have happened...
	12:43pm tom tom the pipers son: in terms of a social bond that needed to happen because of the blitz devastation on london
	🛎 12:43pm David (in London): ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:39 Yes, absolutely. There are still, even now, the odd vacant plot that's never been touched. Used to be one next to my father in law's house in Southwark.
	🛎 12:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Godzilla ~ A-Bomb... Dresden was turned into an ashtray...
	12:45pm Michael 98145: And now the bastards are trying to eliminate Ukraine
	12:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @12:43 oh really...meant to say consciousness instead of dna... i'm woozy...bad cold
	12:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:36 I know my dad travelled through London a lot but I'm not sure if it was during that time or after it. He never talked about it. He was going from Ireland to Norfolk and Essex. My Aunties also worked there, I believe post-blitz.
	🛎 12:46pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mary and 100%ers!
	🛎 12:47pm David (in London): ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:46 Bonus points to you for the Essex shout-out!
	12:47pm Michael 98145: ↳ chris in the redwoods @12:46 Welcome!
	🛎 12:47pm David (in London): Hey Chris.
	12:47pm still b/p: I attended a celebration of life gathering the other day for someone born in London in World War II. One of the daughters said, "Yes, the bombs and all that."
	🛎 12:47pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Stage 1" by "Pocket Dimension" Oh , this is good. Hello all.
	🛎 12:48pm Phillippe: Gotta run as soon as soon as I arrived but will be listening. Hopefully the last appointments I have to drive my bride to. Thank you Mary. Peace and love, y’all!
	🛎 12:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...cue Lehrer's VonBraun song...
	🛎 12:49pm Dan S: Hi Mary, fellow Whatevers, I've been listening, I'm a bit too busy to comment, but I am enjoying your second show of 2025!
	🛎 12:50pm David (in London): ↳ Hubig Pie @12:47 Wotcha Hubig.
	12:51pm Mary Wing: Hiya chris in the redwoods, Hubig, and Dan S!
	12:52pm chresti: Hi Mary and wingdingers! Been listening and staring at the fire activity map..
	12:52pm Michael 98145: ↳ chresti @12:52 Stay safe !
	12:52pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "CD-R" by "Toro Y Moi" I like these lyrics
	12:53pm still b/p: ↳ chresti @12:52 Is smoke really all headed out to sea, or drifting and hanging your way?
	🛎 12:53pm Hubig Pie: ↳ David (in London) @12:50 'ello, guvnah.
	12:53pm tom tom the pipers son: i wonder if londoners/ britains self identification because of the blitz was exploited in a twisted way by farange and the brexiters
	12:54pm Mary Wing: ↳ chresti @12:52 Hi chresti! Sending love to you and everyone in California!
	12:54pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ David (in London) @12:47 hee hee hee. I've made a point of remembering those areas because of a wonderful trip I took there with my dad once.
	12:54pm spodiodi: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @12:08 what's good, Andrew? greetings, David (in London), egould
	12:55pm tom tom the pipers son: @ mary...enjoying the show...
	12:55pm adamdoesit: Hello Mary and wingèd ones. chresti, are you guys safe and well watered?
	12:56pm Marie in Chicago: Yay, Chrest. and Franc. are alright!
	12:56pm TDK60: Hi deejay Mary. Whatever is going on?
	12:56pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @12:52 oh hi chresti...
	🛎 12:56pm David (in London): ↳ adamdoesit @12:55 Yo adam! I raise a large GP in your general direction.

	🛎 12:58pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:58 Ha!
	12:59pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Melancholia" by "Asher Gamedze & The Black Lungs" I really like this (amidst a sea of many songs kinda like this...). I see now that all the songs today are from 2024...
	1:00pm adamdoesit: ↳ David (in London) @12:56 Back atcha, David. I remember the first time I was in London, circa 1992, noticing those bombed-out lots. Seemed many fewer on more recent visits. And speaking of the Blitz, I recommend director Steve McQueen's recent movie Blitz (2024) to all and sundry.
	1:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @12:59 i hear that too...
	1:05pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:00 Oh, I wanna see that. I think Steve McQueen is great. Have loved all his movies (and the Amazon TV series) so far.
	1:06pm Marie in Chicago: Hey tom tom
	1:07pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:05 what tv series did he do...?
	1:08pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:05 Me too. I haven't summoned the emotional fortitude for Occupied City (2023, 4 1/2 hours) yet. It awaits.
	1:08pm chresti: ↳ spodiodi @12:56 hi spodi! thanks, just ashes and smoky down in san gabriel- so far the winds seem calmed down
	1:10pm spodiodi: ↳ chresti @1:08 glad to hear it!
	🛎 1:10pm WR: ↳ chresti @1:08 semi-good news, Chresti. Ash and soot in the air is not good to breath but hopefully the calmed winds slows or stops the spread of the fire.
	1:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:08 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
	1:11pm spodiodi: nice first hour, Mary!
	1:11pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:08 have you wet down your house?
	🛎 1:12pm David (in London): ↳ chresti @1:08 Re-Chrestikins!
	1:13pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:07 Hey, it's called "Small Axe" which I think comes from a traditional Jamaican saying...
	1:15pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:08 Hi, I either overlooked this or forgot about it but I would love to see this. I'm guessing it's great.
	1:15pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:13 thanks marie
	🛎 1:19pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Been a bit too busy to keep up with comments, but wanted to jump in and say that a good friend of mine marked himself safe from the LA fires. He's also smack dab in the middle of a move and doesn't have a car so he's currently hunkered down; they haven't evacuated his area yet. As far as the Blitz goes...reminds me of my own up close and personal experiences on 9/11....
	🛎 1:19pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Or as someone on the Interwebs pointed out: "LA is burning, huge parts of VA don't have water because of a snowstorm, and Puerto Rico has had power and water issue outages forever...maybe WE are the shithole country here."
	1:21pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" Mary. Have you played The Styrenes' version of In C before?
	🛎 1:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" From their bandcamp page: "Ut Gret is a progressive group from Louisville, KY who incorporate elements of rock, jazz, classical, zeuhl, world musics and minimalism to build their musical landscape."
	1:21pm Mary Wing: ↳ TDK60 @1:21 No, not yet; have not found a good copy of it.
	1:23pm Mary Wing: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @1:19 Yeah, but let's take over Greenland for our "safety," right? </sarcasm>
	1:23pm TDK60: ↳ Mary Wing @1:21 I have a CD I could lend ya! I live in NYC (part of the Jersey City Metro).
	1:24pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:15 shuer @)
	1:24pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @1:21 heard that at a record fair i believe
	1:25pm Mary Wing: ↳ TDK60 @1:23 Oh cool, let me check the station's library first; if I can't find it there, maybe send me an mp3?
	1:25pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" This really makes me think of New York City (which I love)
	🛎 1:25pm egould: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" Reminiscent of the chorus from Steve Winwood's "Valerie".
	1:26pm chresti: ↳ adamdoesit @12:55 Franco went to the nursery across the street to get a sprayer (our house is a tinder box) thanks.
	1:28pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:25 in those terms, makes me think of two paintings...broadway boogie woogie by mondrian and brooklyn bridge by joseph stella
	🛎 1:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ chresti @1:26 Good Lord. Stay safe! I had a look at the fire map that someone tagged up here; didn't realize that there were also fires in Sacramento? Just texted my cousin in LA also. Late Mom's bestie lives in Sacramento and texted her also.
	1:29pm Michael 98145: ↳ Mary Wing @1:23 cripes
	🛎 1:33pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Mary Wing @1:23 Blargh. The stupid absolutely burns.
	1:34pm adamdoesit: ↳ chresti @1:26 Stay safe. I look forward to the day when this is just another of Franco's stories.
	1:34pm tom tom the pipers son: just got this...trump posted a map of north america including canada with red white and blue stars and stripes
	🛎 1:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Presumed bird's-eye view : www.facebook.com...
	🛎 1:35pm egould: Isn't Greenland icy, barren and barely habitable? I think he wants to buy Iceland, which ironically thaws, has vegetation and is quite habitable.
	1:35pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:28 oh wow, I love stuff like that, I mean associations. I'll check those paintings out toute suite (but have to finish a work task right now)
	1:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:35 .... ; )
	1:37pm TDK60: ↳ chresti @1:26 Keep it cool and vigilant. \\//
	1:38pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:28 I've kinda been half visualizing Broadway down by Canal..
	🛎 1:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: The stupid stuff is always just a distraction to deflect attention to the crimes they're committing.
	1:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:38 back in the day, did a lot of shopping down that way
	1:39pm Marie in Chicago: I'm just ignoring/not engaging with Chump's more outrageous statements. (PS, world, his elevator, or shall I say, escalator, does not go all the way to the top)
	🛎 1:41pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 THIS. And the news outlets eat it up and ignore the elephants in the room.
	1:41pm adamdoesit: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:39 My MO has been to refuse to be baited by it. I spent too long living in fear and anger last time around. The wicked king gets enough free rides without my having to give him an office in my mind.
	🛎 1:41pm Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Song: "In C" by "Ut Gret" And i am loving this song. Back to work; just heard back from my cousin in LA; all good there.
	1:42pm spodiodi: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 hear, hear
	🛎 1:44pm Hubig Pie: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 Zactly.
	1:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:39 www.moma.org... whitney.org...
	1:46pm Paul: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 This.
	🛎 1:47pm egould: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 And it's all stupid stuff.
	🛎 1:48pm Phillippe: ↳ chresti @1:26 Hey chresti good to hear you are safe thus far! Stay that way! My best to you and Franco!
	🛎 1:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 "attention away from," I meant to type.
	1:51pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ adamdoesit @1:41 Yeah, as John Mullaney said, during his first term, he was like a horse in a hospital--it was hard not to keep looking at what he was doing--now I know what to expect and I minimize the attention I give. PS: I think Don Jr is such a big idiot it is almost funny.
	1:55pm Mary Wing: ↳ Paul @1:46 Hello Paul!
	1:56pm chresti: oh hi tom tom, re-Davidkins!, Michael 98145, Marie in C, still b/p. errbody!
	1:56pm Charles: Hiya Mary, I'm not always able to catch the show so I don't know if you often do the thing where you play many covers of a song? I like that so I was wondering if we'd get that today.
	🛎 1:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @1:38 One could sat that is ALL of American politics -- its very nature and method. It's just more brutalist and absurd now. But a difference of degree, not kind.
	1:57pm Mary Wing: ↳ Charles @1:56 Hi Charles! Yes, that thing with the covers is coming in about 20 minutes, after this song.
	1:58pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:45 Hey Tom, I love both of those. Thank you so much for sharing. The Mondrian is amazing to me--so witty and such an encapsulation. Then, the Stella painting--what an embodiment. Words fail me. I'm sure there have been a lot of shows of NYC in paintings. I'd love to see one of those, post-1900. A contemporary one would be I'm sure very interesting.
	🛎 1:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:56 could *say
	2:00pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @1:58 there are different versions of the stella...they get more abstract
	2:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ chresti @1:56 Glad ur both alright, Chresti
	2:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ chresti @1:56 yes chresti...glad you're both ok....
	2:01pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:33 Here in Uptown Kingston, my connections are underground. They survives a lot of local power outages (1-2 a year)
	2:01pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:56 As long as all wealth keeps flowing upward, we're good to go. Right? Cripes, again.
	🛎 2:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:01 I wish my neighborhood had utilities underground. Unsightly poles and wires all over the place.
	2:04pm Webhamster Henry: In C is always fun, thanks for trotting it out now and then. Search results indicate this is your 11th playing!
	2:05pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:04 Yeah, but you have the FDR and Vanderbilt estates (and not far from MIlls Mansion..) Hyde Park is not without amenities!
	2:06pm Mary Wing: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:04 Hi Henry! Happy new year! I think I have played more than 11 by now, surely? Did I really start this task last year?
	2:06pm Michael 98145: Holy crap -- Cal is currently fighting 35 wildfires ...
	2:08pm northguineahills: thought this would come on one 3ok, but if you played the original, that would only leave room for one cover!
	🛎 2:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:05 A hiker recently reported a dead body in the Hudson along Vanderbilt estate, so we got that going on, too.
	2:11pm Mary Wing: ↳ northguineahills @2:08 HI NGH! I started the monthly episode of In C because of that!
	2:15pm TDK60: I have to leave during an In C. Oh well. I'm heading out into the bitter wind, to the food grocery. And I will stretch my eyebrows, get them in shape, to raise them at the higher prices. Back in a bit.
	2:16pm spodiodi: woo
	🛎 2:16pm chris in the redwoods: <applause> :)
	2:16pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @2:15 Good, caught it ....
	2:17pm tom tom the pipers son: always leaves me a bit breathless
	🛎 2:18pm David (in London): Always imagine that you have to train like a marathon before doing In C: good diet, rest, vitamin supplements, increasing your stamina day by day etc,
	2:19pm northguineahills: Mary’s ring made me think my toaster dinged.
	2:21pm still b/p: ↳ David (in London) @2:18 Woman from Belgium just finished running a marathon distance every day for a year. She's ready to to do In C every day for this year!
	2:22pm Charles: Ah so it does have a name, it's not The Thing! I'm often just able to tune in really late, it shows my ignorance!
	2:23pm Mary Wing: ↳ Charles @2:22 "The thing with the covers" works for me! Also "covers up the wazoo" when it takes up the full hour, heh.
	2:24pm adamdoesit: ↳ Song: "All Blues Hail Mary" by "Joe Henry" Listening distractedly, I thought, huh, only three versions of Miles Davis' "All Blues?" Probably because they're so long. And what makes them a Hail Mary? Maybe she ran out of time? But no. Hail Mary!
	🛎 2:24pm David (in London): ↳ Mary Wing @2:23 I'm going to start an upholstery shop called 'Covers Up the Wazoo'.
	🛎 2:26pm Handy Haversack: Mona filled in for Clay this morning and played "It's the End of the World as We Know It," and I referred the Glisteners to your November show, Mary. Hopefully a few stick around!
	2:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David (in London) @2:24 ha ha...!
	🛎 2:28pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "All Blues Hail Mary" by "Tom Jones" Ah, Tom Jones, you gotta admire the guy for his longevity as a singer.
	2:28pm Mary Wing: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:26 Aw thanks! Can I take this opportunity to say that Mona is an AWESOME DJ! Her shows just blow me away when I can tune in from my job, seriously.
	2:31pm adamdoesit: ↳ David (in London) @2:24 If I've managed to cover up the wazoo before I leave the house, my day's off to a good start.
	🛎 2:32pm βrian: ↳ adamdoesit @2:31 Is it legal to carry a concealed wazoo?
	2:34pm adamdoesit: ↳ βrian @2:32 Not at all. If arrested, any legal defense is necessarily a hail mary.
	2:36pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Cat Bit Lip" by "Vernal Scuzz" me likey. I like the band name too
	🛎 2:36pm egould: ↳ Song: "Cat Bit Lip" by "Vernal Scuzz" Could be a Bond Theme song.
	2:40pm Ike: I'm back from a meeting! What did I miss? I'm glad the playlist didn't get burned up by a wildfire or blown away by the wind.
	🛎 2:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ βrian @2:32 ...I think it's illegal to not cover it...
	2:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "All Threes" by "Bright Eyes" lyrics here: something like "elon musk, I'd kill him in an alley over Five Guys....love it" (though, seriously, I don't condone violence--I just appreciate the words/ideas)
	🛎 2:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tho Wazoo sounds some place in the middle of some large midwestern state ...in which case they may have their custom obscure to me here...
	2:43pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:42 Oh, and "love it" was not in the song lyric
	2:44pm Mary Wing: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:42 Heh, I think it was "kill him in an alley with five dice" actually.
	🛎 2:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& in which case 'Up The Wazoo' would be a regional affirmation...
	2:48pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 oh, really? I like my distortion better @)
	2:48pm Ike: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:43 Are you thinking of Kalamazoo perhaps?
	🛎 2:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @2:48 Mondegreen !
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 it was dice... and i'm wondering who was so beautiful before? ...cannot tell what that song is saying!
	🛎 2:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ike @2:48 ...after all it's a Jungle out there & a Kalawazoo in here ...not to say up in here...
	🛎 2:51pm egould: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" I like Manu Chao.
	2:52pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" thought some of the vocals sounded familar
	🛎 2:52pm egould: ↳ Mary Wing @2:44 Yahtzee!
	2:52pm Mary Wing: Hi coelacanth! Beats me, maybe it's just stream of consciousness?
	🛎 2:52pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Sénégal Fast-Food" by "Amadou & Mariam" hell yeah. great new version! cool.
	2:53pm Mary Wing: ↳ egould @2:52 Ha ha haa! Death by Yahtzee, my new band name!
	🛎 2:53pm Handy Haversack: All WFMUs hail Mary! Many thanks, Mary!
	🛎 2:53pm egould: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @2:43 en.wikipedia.org...
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Mary Wing @2:52 i thought maybe it was a biblical reference? ...and i hope he's not saying elon musky was so beautiful before. i don't think so!
	🛎 2:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: I suspected Wazoo was a smart phone app. Sure enough: "The purpose of the Wazoo app is to connect drivers with clean and accessible restrooms throughout their workday." Thanks, Mary!
	2:54pm Mary Wing: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:53 Maybe he was implying Elon was in white because he is trying to be our new saviour?
	2:55pm chresti: I remember yahtzee!
	2:55pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks mare...!
	🛎 2:55pm βrian: "I wanna be an airborne kitty!" www.wfmu.org...
	🛎 2:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ egould @2:53 See they're all over the place... Not far from Yahtzee, Mississippi I shouldn't be surprised...
	🛎 2:56pm chris in the redwoods: and more Claude! super duper.
