There was some food there that made me cry, so delicious.
My birthday; was yesterday. I had a nice weekend, Saturday was dinner at the 112 (best place in Minneapolis for my budget), a show by Demetri Martin. Sunday was UP and my new favorite pizza in town - Black Sheep. They use a coal oven. Nom.
thank you for the wonderful wishes!

So I'm in NYC for many years and have this little record player and 4 records (one T Rex and a few classical) and sort of stopped listening to music. Occassionally I bought a few CDs from the Desi taxi eatery joint on Houston and 1st-ish, which were good.
So, I just moved to brooklyn. Have a nice flat with my girlfriend, and decided to flip on the radio to keep me company while I unloaded the dish washer. I assumed I'd listen to sports talk radio (always a mainstay for me) but actually that benny goodman orgy thing was still going on, didn't want to hear that, and rather than flip to AM I thought wtf I'd scroll up the dial.
I stopped when I heard the smog (I'm of course irate at this "Bill Callahan" bull as if his parents were better than he at naming him. I remember I had the weirdest encounter with him at the middle east one night, that's another story though) backing tracks before his voice came on.
Anyhow, I sort of sighed in my head hearing the drums nad horns and was like, yeah, I guess I should listen to this.
Then his voice came on, effectless and such.
I listened to the track. Expecting it to be an anomoly I was curious what would come next, coudl it possibly be something I liked as much?
Then you came on, a familiar voice flooding back old memories. It was such a treat to hear Ben Walker on my radio again, didn't realize you had moved to NYC from Boston etc. etc. The thrill of listening ot live radio broadcast by a DJ who's taste you "trust" is something I had been missing.
So I'm listening and its a treat to have you back dj-ing. I just placed my speakers in stereo in the new apt and its being effectively baptized by your set this le morning!
Very exciting.
Thanks again for 5 formative years introducing me to music in Boston and its good to hear our tastes still align.
What a surprising pleasure.

3. b/p: what walls are we talkin' about here? I would be happy to supply you with scans of primo Hanks panels.
4. The head shot comes from a comic book called "the Big Three" and appears in Volume 1: "I Shall Destroy all the Civilized Planets!"

Getting scans would be great. I'll go back and review the strips we've seen here recently to make a request or two via your website. Thanks. Some images and dialogue are too perfect or awful or whacked, sometimes all at once, to pass up.

Really loved the Newgarden+Karasik essay on Nancy (www.tomhart.net/teaching/handouts/howToReadNancy.pdf).
Any chance of getting Mark Newgarden on WFMU some time?
