Listener comments!
	11:08pm john: Hey Evan! Great to be back...in LA last week, otherwise engaged at the early hour the show's on Pacific time.
	11:10pm efd: Hi John, good to have you back!
	11:14pm john: My week is all thrown off when I'm not listening on Tuesday night, but at least I was at my favorite restaurant. Day-um that dinner was good.
	11:25pm C: This is a great one!
	11:27pm efd: let the record show that C was referring to the Cheek song.... not "Funky Gold Menorah."
	11:29pm Joe: Just when I had lost hope in the comics page... there was F Minus. And as Jew, I am deeply offended. Just kidding, I'm not a Jew.
	11:29pm C: This is a great one! (this time I'm referring to the "Funky Gold Menorah")
	11:29pm Jessica: Holla day. Yeeeeah. [Hi, EFD!]
	11:30pm Laurie: This is not "Christmas Wrapping."
	11:31pm Joe: Oh, man, "Christmas Wrapping" is so awesome.
	11:36pm Laurie: I thought Jim Jarmusch was really sexy when I was in high school.
	11:37pm Otter: OMG! when you were taling about doing facials on the air, I first thought you were talking about a different kind of "facial"
	11:38pm Sybil: Ochos Kandelikas by the Hip Hop Hoodios?
	11:40pm Joe: FUCKING SICK!!!! Seriously, this song makes me wanna "WOOOO!"
	11:41pm Laurie: There's a really good Hanukkah song on Gaylord Records' "Cwistmas Twee comp. It makes me happy. Also, I have approximately 500 indie Christmas mp3s on my hard drive. Feel free to email me if you need something in particular.
	11:42pm Laurie: And by indie, I mean indie pop. Of course. Gaylord, Siesta, Kindercore, Parasol, etc etc. Yes.
	11:44pm Laurie: Special Request: PLEASE DO NOTE PLAY "A Cat Carol" or whatever that song is, I WILL CRY AND NOT STOP FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. I'm a;ready welling up just thinking about the damn song.
	11:47pm efd: hmm, filling these requests is going to be harder than I thought! I don't think you have to worry about "Cat Carol," I don't even know what that is. Joe, glad you liked both Cyclone 60 and F-Minus! Hi Jessica! Hi Sybil!
	11:48pm Laurie: Will you play Dolly Parton's "Hard Candy Christmas"?
	11:50pm C: No offense, Laurie, but I really want to hear "Cat Carol" now. I don't know what it is either.
	11:53pm Laurie: A couple months ago, a homeless dude in New York asked me and my friend for some money. He said, "I'm like Obama, I like change too." WIN.
	11:54pm Laurie: Also, Cat Carol is easily the saddest song ever. Ever.
	11:54pm C: Ah. Now I see. Need Kleenex.
	11:54pm john: I actually heard two girls behind the counter in an inner city pharmacy use Obama as slang for change--"you got Obama for this fifty?"
	11:56pm Joe: I'm gonna go Barack into something more comfortable.
	11:59pm C: Have you ever been to Kowloon (restaurant) on Rt. 1 in Saugus? Definitely one of the more unique dining experiences in Mass.
	12:00am Jessica: AC/DC has proved a pretty good soundtrack for waiting-[and-waiting]--for-the-offending-other's-criminal-arraignment; I bet the soundalike will be just as fine for the tort phase. And I hope I get to find out. These continuances are cramping my effing style.
	12:18am john: Man, I miss these guys, Wildly underrated.
	12:18am efd: pant pant pant man, craziest Midnight Ticket Oasis ever! Let me go fill in my playlist now...
	12:19am john: A pair and a half of pants.
	12:23am Joe: That was ninja sonik? I might have to stop not-liking them.
	12:28am john: It was the first single, and then they re-recorded it for the second album a couple years later. Done by Bill Nelson both times, actually. It's a shade distressing that I didn't actually look that up, even if I'm wrong.
	12:33am Laurie: If it's not too much trouble, would you mind playing the Shivvers for me tonight? THANK YOU.
	12:35am john: Oh, and that Nerves comp is boss. An absolute must. Jack Lee went on to not very much. According to the notes, that was Paul Collins and Peter Case after they split from Lee.
	12:40am efd: thanks for the AFOS info, John - I knew I could count on you. Laurie, if I can give myself enough time to run itno the library I'll play some Shivvers, but no promises. C, I think I have been to Kowloon a long time ago... isn't there a (somewhat) similar restaurant nearby? (And no, I'm not talking about the Hilltop Steak House.)
	12:51am ?: I think you're thinking of Weylu's! It was like three times the size of Kowloon a little bit up Rt. 1. It closed about 10 years ago, but they just left it up there. Now I think it's an old folks home for Asians, at least that's what people tell me. I always thought they should have turned it into a casino.
	12:52am Laurie: I think you mean "over the tubes." (Is that still funny? A series of tubes?)
	12:53am Joe: First it was funny, then it was scary, then it was tragi-comic, and now it's just classic.
	1:02am efd: grrr... i seem to have misplaced an entire CDR! I swear I had it here earlier tonight, but maybe I'll find it sitting on my dining room table when I get home. "over the tubes" - I like it!
	1:08am Laurie: I actually just said to myself, "This fellow sounds a wee bit like Brian Ferry." I'm ti-ti and should go to bed.
	1:10am HotRod: hey hey
	1:15am efd: hi HotRod!
	1:46am john: Another great ex-WLIR track...
	1:48am efd: I've got a million of 'em...
	1:49am Joe: My parents still talk about WLIR. They said it was awesome.
	1:50am john: Joe, your parents? That's honestly not the kind of talk that wins friends and influences people. And yeah, only commercial station worth a damn.
	1:52am Sybil: Time to break out the rocking chairs for us old folks.
	1:54am Sybil: I can think of two other commercial stations worth a damn, but they're even further back in the mists of history. And also, at this time of night I'm sure I won't be able to come up with their call letters.
	1:57am Joe: It's funny, because my father was describing the early days of WNEW to me, and how "the DJ's played whatever they wanted". It sounded strangely familiar. WPLJ was also supposedly amazing. I have a handed down PLJ Peter Frampton Pin that I've been known to pin on a backpack or two.
	1:57am efd: WPIX for one, right?
	1:58am john: I was thinking 1980s. I should have elaborated.
	2:00am Sybil: Ah, yes, WPIX. Those were the days. The other one was in the DC area. Doug Schulkind mentioned it once.
	2:06am efd: the DC one was WHFS, I bet. Those call letters are still in use, but I think it's a sports talk station now.
