Listener comments!
	10:09am Paul: Aren't those the same two songs that opened last week's show?
	10:11am Bill: You know they are. Why pose it in a passive aggressive way?
	10:13am david: 15 minutes into the show and I'm hearing only #1 hits. What gives here?
	10:14am Deuce: Give Paul a Valium..
	10:18am Joe from NJ: Mike always opens the show with his favorite song(s) from the previous show.
	10:29am SmokinJ: No more mailbox? Whew!
	10:44am Paul: Thanks, Joe.
	10:54am SmokinJ: Frank Gorshin?
	10:54am SmokinJ: Outstanding!
	11:00am Peter K.: Well, if nobody else is going to say it, I guess I will: The character played by Heath Ledger in the new Batman movie is the Joker, not the Riddler. Similar names, I know, but two different characters. (I'm by no means a Batman fanatic, and I haven't seen the new movie either, but I do know that much.) But so what? You're doing a great show as usual, Michael. Keep those Number One Hits coming!
	11:01am david: Is there a flip side to "The Riddler"? That was killer!
	11:04am SmokinJ: You KNOW there's a flip side david! But will MIchael ever play it????? Hmm..
	11:19am Smiling Goat: Wow, that "love they neighbor" track was great!
	11:23am david: Can't hear enough of NRBQ! Keep the #1 hits coming!
	11:24am WILDGIRL: On deck for Aug. 9th with Mr. Shelley: Troggs, Sonics, Sweet, Monkees, Cramps, Cynics, Dead Boys, Mitch Ryder, Animals, Stooges, Ramones, Duane Eddy, Dictators, Music Machine, Mummies, Swingin' Neckbreakers, Motorhead, Bar-Kays, Link Wray... etc. etc. we're gonna ROCK! See you all next week. xox, Wildgirl www.myspace.com/kingwildgirl
	11:27am DeemerDave: Well, I understand. The interviews must take lots of time to arrange and prepare but I will miss them. Can we maybe have the mailbox back? Thanks for all you do, Michael!
	11:33am joff: Hey Mr Shelley... the Muffs are the bestest! ...Thankyou ! its my birthday today and im already quite drunk! terribly sorry... KEEP IT UP WITH ALL THE HITS , MAN love joff
	11:34am Paul: You didn't like 21, Michael? It's my second favorite Kevin Spacey/Kate Bosworth movie (Beyond the Sea is the other). Actually, I thought 21 was pretty good.
	11:34am SmokinJ: You go WG!
	11:34am Parq: Wildgirl, I have to deposit the kid in college next weekend. I'l dig the archive for sure, but I won't be able to post any comments. So here, in advance, are best wishes from an old fan.
