Derek in DC:

Cronkite was in the news a couple of years ago when he came out against the war in Iraq and conservatives started calling him a cut and run commie.

There's a bronze Jim Henson statue on the campus of the University of Maryland. He's sitting on a bench talking to Kermit.
  3:15am
Toronto Jim:

Second death of the Cronkite "three"? How about Queen Elizabeth? Ain't she just about due?
  3:15am
JimSally CAN:

peetyL:

I just saw neil hamburger's picture advertising "the new big ball" in an email from timanderic.com a little over an hour ago!
  3:22am
Jan Erik:

Math question is a strange choice for a CAPTCHA (computers can do math), but guess it works, at least it trips up the "off the shelf" spambots that just submit a junk to every form they can find.
  3:23am
Brandon:

There's a freaking Billy Mays Commercial on!!!
Didn't he die?...
Isn't that like sacreligious or something??
  3:24am
Neal:

There's not likely to be spam bots in here anyway, because a new playlist starts every three of four hours for each new show, and the bot would have to find it.

peetyL:

I don't know about Neil Hamburger dying or not, but when I went to his MySpace page, my Internet Explorer crashed. Shame on you, tim...
  3:30am

  3:50am

  3:52am
Scott Crawford:

See, you Canadian folks can just walk down the street and get a Double Double, but for me, It's a haul. It used to be 3 hours to the nearest one, in deepest, darkest Connecticut.

Ribfest isn't until the first weekend in September, Jim. I'll be up for it.
  3:53am
Toronto Jim:

JimSally? Sounds vaguely feminine to me. And I've never heard of you.

  4:36am
peetyL:

  4:36am
Brandon:

BLAST!!!
I missed my window!!!!
  4:36am
Scott Crawford:

We were talking about people erasing video...what about all the pre-Wayback Machine web sites that are gone?
  4:37am
lonnie:

JimSally CAN:

JImSally is getting sleepy, sleepy... time to lay in bed and listen to the rest of the show
  4:39am
JimSally CAN:

Maybe I should stay up just to be safe... I don't need any bad dreams
  4:39am
JimSally CAN:

Rice Balls!
  4:39am
Brandon:

The marshmallow is a confection that, in its modern form, typically consists of sugar or corn syrup, water, gelatin that has been softened in hot water, dextrose, and flavorings, whipped to a spongy consistency
  4:40am
JimSally CAN:

Come on, RICE BALLS
  4:40am
Brandon:

Straight from a marshmallow site

Toronto Jim:

JimSally: ...and perhaps have a dream about WFMU, like Neal, complete with sore wrist afterwards, eh? (Or is my wife there with you now?)
  4:40am
JimSally CAN:

If you can't find it, better go with Rice Balls.
  4:41am
JimSally CAN:

If I wake up my wife and tell her I want NEIL attention while listening to Frank... She'll have me sleeping with Toronto Jim in no time
  4:42am
Brandon:

I didn't say which site Peety...lol
but yes it HAS GELATIN FRANK!!!!
  4:43am
JimSally CAN:

I love Jello! I can eat a whole box to myself!
  4:43am
Jan Erik:

From Wikipedia:
"The traditional marshmallow recipe uses powdered marshmallow root, which may be difficult to obtain. Most commercially manufactured marshmallows instead use gelatin in their manufacture(...)"
  4:44am
JimSally CAN:

Good night ladies and gents, it's bedy bye time for sally. See you'se next week
  4:44am
Toronto Jim:

Speaking of Jell-o, does anyone else remember "Junket?" It was like a milky gelatin dessert, as opposed to a clear, water-based one.
  4:45am
escapist:

Brandon, re; screamin... I feel your pain brother.
  4:45am
JimSally CAN:

I remember Junket I think, the hospital my mom worked at had it in the Cafeteria
  4:46am
JimSally CAN:

I called in snot flavored jello
  4:47am
JimSally CAN:

But I was really young, I ue to also think Mcdonalds was made from worms
  4:47am
JimSally CAN:

Ok, that's enough, good night
  4:47am
Brandon:

Escapist....I wanted to call in...maybe he'll answer after this segment
  4:48am
peetyL:

It's called the Willis Tower now, but the Sears Tower IS the tallest building in the U.S.
  4:48am
Toronto Jim:

Yeah, we kinda didn't like Junket very much, but my grandmother would make it for us a lot. It had less "solidity" than Jell-o, and I think it was always strawberry-flavoured.
  4:49am
Escaipist:

Doing a meet and greet w/ BOC tomorrow night at their Canyon Club show. Long time firends. Want a t-shirt?
  4:50am
Escapist:

Invite was for FEN.
  4:50am
Rampler:

which BOC? Boards of Canada, or Blue Oyster Cult?
  4:51am
Escapist:

the latter.
  4:52am
Toronto Jim:

Maybe BOC means "Box of Cash," a cool local Toronto combo who do Johnny Cash cover tunes. The drummer uses brushes on a big upturned cardboard box.
  4:53am
Rampler:

I would live a t-shirt, I am a big fan of both BOC's!! "Madness to the Method", great song...
  4:54am
Escapist:

Time for another box of kittens.
  4:56am
peetyL:

I play the Wheel of Fortune slot machine in Vegas
  4:57am
peetyL:

better odds than that annoying coin game...
  4:58am
Joshua K:

We went on a cruise a couple years ago and they had one of those coin machines in the casino and my dad got addicted to it.
  4:59am
Joshua K:

He kept coming up with strategies to make them fall but he never made any more than he put in
  4:59am
Escapist:

There is a certain etherial romance about doing a late night radio/television show. It envokes the creative essence of the on air talent. An essence that is necessary.
  5:02am
Joshua K:

Frank, you ever been to Mitsuwa japanese market?
  5:05am
mannythemailman:

Back at home, enjoyed my driving with the Rampler segment
  5:06am
Toronto Jim:

I always wanted my "DJ name" to be "Viewmaster Viewer!"
  5:06am
Scott Crawford:

Hey, Manny! Don't get busted driving on the phone!
  5:06am
Jan Erik:

I used to have a couple of Transofrmers viewmaster disks back in the day, not sure where they or the viewer dissapeared to though :(
  5:07am
peetyL:

I remember that Viewmaster sound!
  5:08am
peetyL:

I knew it would be Disney
  5:08am
brandon:

elephant
  5:08am
peetyL:

  5:08am
brandon:

damn
  5:09am
peetyL:

nope, it's Sleeping Beauty
  5:10am
brandon:

i still bet on an elephant...i see it...im putting it out there
  5:10am
mannythemailman:

I was given a battery talking viewmaster for xmas as a kid. The viewmaster disk had a mini audio disc attached and narraterd the pics
  5:10am
sherri:

sleeping beauty was AMAZING!!!!!
  5:11am
peetyL:

Sleeping Beauty I think was made in 1938...
  5:11am
peetyL:

yeah, Cinderella WAS better...
  5:12am
peetyL:

Cinderella pinball, Frank?
  5:12am
mannythemailman:

Frank, do you have Playboy pinball
  5:12am
Toronto Jim:

Hey, there's a woman with all of us fellas here! (I was just about to post a rhetorical question about why there were no females here tonight.)
  5:14am
peetyL:

You're right Frank. 1959. It just looks older...animation wasn't as good in my opinion
  5:14am
mannythemailman:

It used to whistle when it started
  5:15am
Brandon:

finally a female perspective
  5:15am
Escapist:

I own a couple pairs of Jokerz denim pants. Not the most comfortable pairs.
  5:17am
Toronto Jim:

I think I recall the "Jokers" pinball machine. But, when I was quote young, there was a truly OLD machine at the local bowling alley called "Blue Chip." So ancient, it had the old roll-over score numbers.
  5:17am
Joshua K:

If you don't get the ramp then you don't deserve to be called the rampler
  5:17am
Toronto Jim:

Escapist: "Denim pants?" Where I'm from, we call those "jeans."
  5:18am
?:

riverboat gambler?
  5:19am
mannythemailman:

The jokers wild, tonight on the rampler
  5:19am
Toronto Jim:

I remember the Riverboat Gambler machine! Then there was a Kiss-themed one (there's nothing Gene Simmons won't do for cash!)
  5:20am
?:

funhouse!!!!!!
  5:21am
sherri:

RUDY!!!!
  5:21am
Toronto Jim:

Yonge Street! (pronounced "Young")
  5:22am
Brandon:

pinball is no fun LISTENING to others play...maybe it's just me, I hated WATCHING my friends play and waiting for my turn...LISTENING is worse!!!...take more calls
  5:22am
Toronto Jim:

That Yonge Street arcade was the one that all the small-town runaways went to when they got into town. There they would be lured into under-age prostitution.
  5:23am
Teemu:

Hi all, barely made it for the last half hour...
  5:23am
mannythemailman:

Yonge St have any Tim Hortons on it
  5:24am
Scott Crawford:

That is the best song ever, on Riverboat Gambler.
  5:24am
Brandon:

Toronto Jim, I was in a music video that my friends band shot in TO... right on Bay St.
  5:25am
Brandon:

about 4 blocks from Union Station
  5:25am
Toronto Jim:

Oh, yeah -- lots of Tim Horton's along Yonge Street. Yonge Street, by the way, used to be in the Guiness World Record Book as the longest street in the world! (because it eventually turned into a highway and went way, way up north into cottage country)
  5:26am
Toronto Jim:

Bay Street is the central business district. It's parallel to Yonge, one block east, for those who care.
  5:26am
mannythemailman:

I went to the CN tower in Toronto and they had one of those glass floor observation areas
  5:27am
Brandon:

Bay st. was basically shut down for the vid shoot...Hello Operator's Take Me Away vid if anyone cares...lol
  5:28am
Toronto Jim:

The CN Tower, as of last year, is no longer the tallest structure in the world -- some new building in Dubai is now taller.
  5:30am
Brandon:

I live 55 mins from TO, and in all of my 28 years, I've never been in the CN Tower
  5:32am
Toronto Jim:

Brandon: You really should go up the tower some time. Though many here think of it as a silly tourist place, the view truly is stunning. (I once walked up the stairs of the tower, for charity. Took about an hour. Sore legs!)
  5:33am
mannythemailman:

I live 15 miles from the Statue of Liberty and it took me 46 years to get to see it.
  5:34am
Brandon:

It's funny, I go to TO ALOT, and have stood at the foot of it many times...I often toy with the idea of walking up or taking the elevator...but then realize I have something else to do that takes priority...lol
  5:37am
mannythemailman:

daylight is illuminating my windows
  5:40am
Brandon:

I need a stage name...how does "Hill Covered With Broom" sound?
  5:42am
Brandon:

I am gonna be releasing my debut solo EP very soon, and I am uncomfortable using my real name...my name would look weird on a t-shirt
  5:42am
Toronto Jim:

Be careful of the CN Tower staircase: there are 1,776 steps!
  5:42am
mannythemailman:

mysterious
  5:43am
Brandon:

"Hill Covered With Broom" is what my name actually means in Old English...
  5:43am
Brandon:

pauldepiperssoninprenzlauerberg:

im well aware of shape hole school. theres a few of them in berlin, germany. there private educational facilities that cater for mathematical proteges and people with unique brain bank brain talents. governmental bureaus use shape hole schools to find the brightest to exploit in imagineering research labs for future cutting edge technological breakthroughs. there considered very controversial though in the way students are pressurised.
  5:58am
mannythemailman:
