	⚡ 6:11am Don in Tampere: ↳ Brian D @6:06 Finnish pronunciation is pretty simple: every letter is pronounced, always the same way (so ee and tt are twice as long as the single versions) and every word is accented on the first syllable.

	6:19am Upright Ray in Bay City MI: Good Morning Brian D and people
	6:20am morphe': Simon[of nearly 14] and I attuned ... Dreams ... Dreamed and awoke at o5:54 CET that met an old friend on 11th St and we took the ferry to Staten Island to see/check on some turtles living in a small secluded pond ... we arrived and they were fine and I awoke [hopefully a large metaphor for the future????] ps evryone should see the ICE arrest of the woman conscientiously leaving her immigration hearing and getting "TAKEN" [El Mundo] www.youtube.com... and the gardener/father of 3 us marines getting pounded in the face by ice .. [Democracy Now] www.youtube.com...
	♥ 6:21am Brian D: ↳ NotARealDoctor @6:17 Sounds sinister on several levels.

	6:24am morphe': ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:21 G'Day ... read as Gay as is Pride Parade Day in many places !!!! Sadly, even in Dublin, many usual BIG sponsors gave up support in fear of Trump ... sick/sad/F-ed up universe .... Power to the People !!!!
	6:24am Fredericks: ↳ William Hellfire @6:09 Suburbia with Flea and his rat?
	♥ 6:25am William Hellfire: ↳ Brian D @6:15 I still have the alligator toy from the alligator the movie game. His name was Ramone.
	♥ 6:26am William Hellfire: ↳ Fredericks @6:24 Yes. That is one of my favorite movies. Love Decline too.

	⚡ ♥ 6:28am Brian in UK: Hello Brian & Saturday folks.
	⚡ ♥ 6:29am Brian in UK: Is that a Pablo painting?
	♥ 6:29am Brian D: ↳ Brian in UK @6:29 It is, Brian, and greetings, sire.

	♥ 6:32am William Hellfire: ↳ Brian D @6:27 It's a giant plastic alligator on wheels and you take turns loading it's mouth with garbage until it's triggered to lunge at you.

	6:38am Cooh John: Back at you Don in Tampere. Nice to see you on the comments board regularly. NARD. Nice to meet you at the marathon. I am already looking forward to next year's and hope to see you again. Alligator Alcatraz, military deployed in LA, TSA scrutiny increased, USA put on travel advisory in other countries, ICE heating up with masked officers... When are we going to admit that we live in a police state??
	⚡ ♥ 6:40am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Clip: PBS-Journalist Bill Moyers dies" Wow, Bill Moyers is gone. I was much more far to his left. He had a probing mind. He seemed like a decent person.
	⚡ ♥ 6:42am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @6:24 Hi morphe'. It's what I call The Medium, that lubricates everything, toxicating it all as it goes.
	⚡ ♥ 6:43am NotARealDoctor: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 Had a lot of fun meeting people this year. Unfortunately I won't be able to make next year's marathon, new job means limited PTO, my anniversary will fall after the marathon is over and I won't be able to take any time off until after that
	⚡ ♥ 6:44am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 MAGANSDAP?
	6:45am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "That Knock on the Door" by "Johnny Coley" This is powerful.
	6:46am Cooh John: Bill.Moyers recounted advice he got from his father when he became press secretary for LBJ: "Always tell the truth. If you can't tell the truth, don't lie."
	6:49am Barbie: You do find the strangest things Its wonderful
	♥ 6:50am William Hellfire: Wait aliens travel through meat balls? I don't eat meat balls!
	⚡ ♥ 6:50am TDK60: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 Cooh John of Ohio, Morphe above, anyone else: for those who've been angry or down about ICE cruelty I have a link to a short 4-min. video of a feisty noise demo in Long Beach. From Counterpunch news. Such an event might bring a smile to freedom lovers. (Watch later....) www.counterpunch.org...
	♥ 6:52am StringOFperils: Good morning.
	6:54am Matty from Brooklyn: Thoroughly enjoying the show, as always, Brian. They always have a lot to say.
	♥ 6:54am Brian D: Barbie... String... good morning.
	⚡ 6:54am Don in Tampere: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 I will probably only be visible via the chat board at any future WFMU events. As someone who had to relinquish his US citizenship for naturalization in Germany in 2007, there is no way I will risk entering what you accurately call a police state. But if anyone wants it, I'll donate a copy of my upcoming album as a marathon giveaway.
	6:55am Matty from Brooklyn: @TDK do you mind putting up the link?
	6:55am Fredericks: "When you have a totalitarian regime, you have to save face."
	⚡ ♥ 6:56am TDK60: ↳ Matty from Brooklyn @6:55 Good morning Matty. It should be there at the bottom of my last comment.
	6:57am danny san: I wonder what the late Mr. Moyers (being a key member of Lyndon B. Johnson`s inner circle) thought (if at all) of LBJ`s 1962 statement made at Southwest Texas State University in a commencement speech that "He who controls the weather will control the world"
	7:00am cpm: hello world
	♥ 7:01am JohnEBGood: Hi DJ Brian and WFMU family. Have a great weekend all : )
	⚡ ♥ 7:02am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Clip: CBS-Government set to open Alligator Alcatr... Guess what? I have a comment on that! It's anti-human, cruel! It's also likely ecologically unsound.
	♥ 7:02am Brian D: Matty, Danny, CPM, JohnE, good morning.
	♥ 7:03am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @7:02 Appalling on multiple fronts.
	⚡ ♥ 7:04am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Don in Tampere @6:54 In hindsight a prescient relinquishment, Don?
	♥ 7:05am JohnEBGood: Is this the Jaws 50 groove ?
	7:05am danny san: Good to hear your voice DJ B. and to read the rest of yall`s printed words.
	⚡ ♥ 7:06am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Song: "Morn" by "Mark Springer + Neil Tennant + Sacconi ... Nice!

	8:45am Fredericks: ↳ William Hellfire @8:35 Recently, I picked up the Repo Man tribute record. It is quite good. Particularly Amanda Palmer's take on Institutionalized.

When are we going to admit that we live in a police state??
	⚡ ♥ 6:40am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Clip: PBS-Journalist Bill Moyers dies" Wow, Bill Moyers is gone. I was much more far to his left. He had a probing mind. He seemed like a decent person.
	⚡ ♥ 6:42am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @6:24 Hi morphe'. It's what I call The Medium, that lubricates everything, toxicating it all as it goes.
	⚡ ♥ 6:43am NotARealDoctor: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 Had a lot of fun meeting people this year. Unfortunately I won't be able to make next year's marathon, new job means limited PTO, my anniversary will fall after the marathon is over and I won't be able to take any time off until after that

	♥ 6:50am William Hellfire: Wait aliens travel through meat balls? I don't eat meat balls!
	⚡ ♥ 6:50am TDK60: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 Cooh John of Ohio, Morphe above, anyone else: for those who've been angry or down about ICE cruelty I have a link to a short 4-min. video of a feisty noise demo in Long Beach.

	♥ 6:54am Brian D: Barbie... String... good morning.
	⚡ 6:54am Don in Tampere: ↳ Cooh John @6:38 I will probably only be visible via the chat board at any future WFMU events. As someone who had to relinquish his US citizenship for naturalization in Germany in 2007, there is no way I will risk entering what you accurately call a police state. But if anyone wants it, I'll donate a copy of my upcoming album as a marathon giveaway.
	6:55am Matty from Brooklyn: @TDK do you mind putting up the link?
	6:55am Fredericks: "When you have a totalitarian regime, you have to save face."

	7:00am cpm: hello world
	♥ 7:01am JohnEBGood: Hi DJ Brian and WFMU family. Have a great weekend all : )
	⚡ ♥ 7:02am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Clip: CBS-Government set to open Alligator Alcatr... Guess what? I have a comment on that! It's anti-human, cruel! It's also likely ecologically unsound.
	♥ 7:02am Brian D: Matty, Danny, CPM, JohnE, good morning.
	♥ 7:03am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @7:02 Appalling on multiple fronts.
	⚡ ♥ 7:04am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Don in Tampere @6:54 In hindsight a prescient relinquishment, Don?
	♥ 7:05am JohnEBGood: Is this the Jaws 50 groove ?
	7:05am danny san: Good to hear your voice DJ B. and to read the rest of yall`s printed words.
