	2:12am crom: batting strong numbers
	2:12am Ergänzt: Good Mornin' Sue P. Lookin' forward to the show later when I get off Work. I've had my 1,5 Liter esspresso a bowl full of Performance enhancin' Müsli's and now it's off to the GRIND...(Da-Da-Da Da-Da Da Da Da)...Have a Great Weekend All
	2:19am Absteiger!!: Yesh!!! this rilly hits the ol' mainline....
	2:21am Ergänzt: Thanx alot now I'm gonna be late for work. I had to listen to Lie Detector...See ya'
	2:25am crom: juice
	2:37am Toronto Jim: ONE word out for "Crom": ...AND...
	2:42am bill: Cerebral Ballzy i have cerebral PALSEY and I think this is a great twist,. i fuckin love when people can joke about it. it deflates the taboo
	2:47am bill: anyone else have any thoughts on this ???????????
	2:48am Toronto Jim: Bill: Nice work with the ALL-CAPS and the not-so-all-caps. "Palsy," by the way, is a thing you know not how to spell. But that's okay, 'cause maybe you really meant it...?
	2:50am bill: if you have it that exempts you from having to spell it correctly HA HA
	2:52am crom: my computer just broke but i fixed it with my tattoo of a screwdriver!
	2:55am Toronto Jim: Wait a sec, Bill -- down to brass taps, as it were... First things first: are you using some kind of tongue depressor, or breath-tube, or stick-in-the-orifice kind of communication device? Or simply taking the piss?
	2:55am BILL: you know, i just thought: that would be a hell of a pickup line for a guy like me. "I have Cerebral Blazy. Go out with me and ill show you
	2:56am Sue P: Bill - I wouldn't recommend that pick up line, but that's just me....
	2:57am bill: ok
	2:59am Toronto Jim: "Ill" show you indeed. And I've never heard of anyone having cerebral "blazy." Only arsonists, as far as I'm concerned, have "blazy." And, of course, as Sue P has pointed out, you'll NEVER get laid with that line -- not, at least, until you can pronounce it.
	3:00am crom: yo, are you currently hailing from TO?
	3:00am Sue P: Ha ha...well, after a few drinks everything either becomes really funny and great or horribly dreadful, so maybe it has a small chance.
	3:00am bill: that was a typo--i meant to say Ballzy
	3:02am Toronto Jim: Hailing frequencies open... coming in at/for/to you from Toronto the Good...
	3:03am bill: i was in toronto twice. nice city. very clean and safe
	3:03am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Horribly dreadful is too, too often...
	3:03am crom: JAM-CALAMITIES!!! my audio is not working anymore, i can't hear shit tru da ear buds!
	3:07am Toronto Jim: Bill: Toronto is currently without garbage pick-up for 31 days. And you know what? It's still not that dirty here. People are being very, very un-garbagey so far. Keep your garbage to yourselves! No crossing picket lines! Long live strike action! Make the whole world a better place! Or die!
	3:10am bill: well, i'll tell you--i went in the late 80s when i was going to NYU, and new york had gone to complete shit. it was dirty, smelled like piss in the summer, grafrittii and exhust smell all over the subway stations, so when i got to toronto and saw a city could be well maintained, it was a real shock
	3:12am Sue P: Why do you Canadians always have to behave better than us Americans? Can't you see you're making us look bad? ha!
	3:13am crom: got audio fixed just in time, caught some wild sax! RULIN'!
	3:13am crom: garbage is cool though
	3:14am Toronto Jim: Bill: People here (SOME of them) are trying very hard to make Toronto as dirty and stinky as NY. It seems to me that these lessons about "how a city COULD be" are bullshit. To quote a couple of genius musicians: "You don't miss your water till your well runs dry" and... "Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got till it's gone"
	3:14am bill: hey, any country that has hockey as a national sport is ok by me
	3:16am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Joke well appreciated. However, we actually don't make you look bad. You do that all by yourselves. The thing is: you don't HAVE TO.
	3:16am bill: ............and besides, it is just too COLD to go out up there and do any real damage
	3:17am Toronto Jim: The good old hockey game is the best game you can name...
	3:17am Sue P: Indeed, Jim, I am well aware that we make our own bed, so to speak. Just needling you.
	3:18am bill: jim: maple leafs fan ?
	3:18am Toronto Jim: Cold? If you really want cold, go to Buffalo! Way colder than here. Lake Erie is totally unforgiving! Lake Ontario is much more... umm... prosaic.
	3:19am Toronto Jim: Leafs fan? Bite yer fekking tongue! Of course I'm a goddamn Leafs fan! Death to the Habs!
	3:20am bill: rangers for me
	3:21am crom: brittle
	3:21am Toronto Jim: Bill: Death to the Blueshirts!
	3:22am crom: North Stars all the way ..
	3:23am bill: alright.. i gotta crash. goodnight everybody. enjoy yourselves and your cerebral ballzies
	3:24am Toronto Jim: Ah, the good ol' expansion North Stars. May Bill Masterton rest in peace -- poor guy.
	3:27am Pieter: Good morning Sue P , Good morning all
	3:28am Toronto Jim: Bill Masterton, by the way, was (so far) the only pro hockey player ever to die DIRECTLY as a result from an on-ice injury. Before his bloodied head nodded off to death, he told a teammate: "Never again. Never again." Then he died. True story.
	3:29am Sue P: Good morning, Pieter. We're having a little hockey lesson from Toronto Jim today. Welcome!
	3:34am Toronto Jim: Hi Pieter. No lesson -- just a remembrance ('cause Crom liked the North Stars) of a player (sans helmet) who died in a freaky way and whose memory lives on in a lesser-known NHL trophy for sportsmanship. If he'd had a helmet, he wouldn't have died. (He died, by the way, in 1968. They didn't make helmets mandatory until eleven years later. Think about that...)
	3:36am Sue P: It's a lesson for me! Thanks for sharing. I grew up in a town without (professional) hockey...
	3:37am Toronto Jim: What town, Sue?
	3:38am Sue P: Cleveland, Ohio
	3:39am Sue P: ...so I KNOW Lake Erie.
	3:39am Toronto Jim: Cleveland?! Why, you silly ninny, you had the Cleveland Barons in the NHL for, oh, two years or so, before they went tits-up. (1977-78 or thereabouts)
	3:40am crom: Broten and Ciccarelli were on the ice during my formative years
	3:41am Sue P: Yes, I know that! I'm just saying that growing up there was no team in the present...only the past. Not the same.
	3:42am crom: cleveland joined w/ the north stars
	3:42am crom: you should really get a Barons jersey Sue P!
	3:42am Toronto Jim: I KNOW that you know Erie! That's a mofo-ing lake like no other! Shallow as hell (for its size), and so you get GREAT fekking winds off of her. And sh*tloads of fekking garbage and detritus and flotsam!
	3:44am Toronto Jim: Crom: True dat! The Barons were so woefully broke that they didn't even move towns! They just packed all their gear up and joined with the already-existing North Stars.
	3:45am Toronto Jim: Sue: Don;t bother getting a Barons jersey -- ugliest things ever worn on ice!
	3:46am Sue P: My dad has an old Barons program somewhere...I don't remember their logo though.
	3:47am crom: whatev dude. i can think of way worse jerseys. check this: http://aycu20.webshots.com/image/14899/2003124428316918073_rs.jpg
	3:48am Toronto Jim: Barons logo here, Sue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Barons_(NHL) Fekking UGLY!
	3:49am Toronto Jim: Crom: You were a bit ahead of me there. Well done! The players' numbers used to be inside that little shoulder-map-of-Ohio. What a laugh!
	3:51am crom: into it
	3:52am crom: i used to ski race against the Canuks and they always had lots of molsen with them. not much for competition though.
	3:53am Toronto Jim: Worst NHL jerseys ever (no particular order, since they're all so bad): Tampa Bay Lightning Cleveland Barons Florida Panthers Carolina Hurricanes Phoenix Coyotes (their entry-year monstrosities) Vancouver Canucks (take your pick -- easily twelve different jerseys since inception -- sheesh!)
	3:54am Toronto Jim: Which Molson?
	3:54am crom: turns out that's my list of favorite jerseys
	3:55am Toronto Jim: Well, Crom, there you go: CROM = AMERICAN
	3:55am crom: does this have what's his name on drums?
	3:56am crom: full of garbage and proud of it!
	4:00am Toronto Jim: Crom: Also full of the insidious, stupid practice of naming sports teams in the singular (Lightning, Wild, Jazz, Magic, etc) Thanks a lot, USA. Utah Jazz?! indeed! (Utah fekking Narrow-minded Christians, rather...)
	4:01am crom: single word names? sounds fine to me ...
	4:03am Toronto Jim: Do they even allow jazz clubs to exist in Utah? I just heard that, as of last month, you no longer have to sign a waiver to get a beer in Utah.
	4:04am Toronto Jim: Crom: I'll correct your last entry: "Single-wprd name? sound fine to me"
	4:06am Toronto Jim: Oh, great -- I misspell a fekking word when I'm correcting someone else... I am the loser that you always knew I was. I'm slapping myself for that idiotic mistake of mine. I'm slapping myself so much that... wait... I think... yes.. I'M ENJOYING IT. (Sue P: turn your eyes away!)
	4:09am crom: i think my audio feed is behind the real-time. my computer is totally messed.
	4:09am Toronto Jim: I repeat (and I want an answer from one of you smug Utah-Americans): Do they even allow jazz clubs to exist in Utah? I just heard that, as of last month, you no longer have to sign a waiver to get a beer in Utah.
	4:12am Toronto Jim: Not sure what's up with my iTunes feed either. There's been no sound at all for about an hour -- keeps on lying to me with its "rebuffering stream" nonsense. Don't care, though -- thoroughly enjoying the company of all you people, (Well, that and my industrial-strength insomnia)
	4:12am Sue P: I don't know much about Utah: there are Mormons there and there are ski resorts there. That's about it.
	4:14am Toronto Jim: What is a person from Utah called? Utahan? (Like, when a fekking blow-hard senator gets up to speak on behalf of his state's citizens, what does he call them?)
	4:15am Toronto Jim: Licence plate?: "UTAH -- HOME OF THE WESTERN WORLD'S ONLY COMPLETELY MADE-UP RELIGION"
	4:16am Sue P: That's an excellent question! I'm gonna guess "Utahian" but I really don't know.
	4:16am crom: there's the great salt lake, Spiral Jetty, Moab ... tons of great stuff, beautiful scenery, etc. TO Jim should check it out some time. who cares about if mormons are weirdos, you don't have to be one or anything to got there.
	4:17am Toronto Jim: Shit. Check that. There's also the scientologists, yes?
	4:19am Toronto Jim: Sue P: I'm with you on your extrapolation. Utahian. I like it. BUT... how do you pronounce it?
	4:20am crom: bryce, zion, arches, and monument valley -- all heavy spots, all in utah
	4:20am Sue P: you-taw-ee-an
	4:21am crom: !!
	4:22am Toronto Jim: Crom: I will check Utah out sometime -- like sometime after I can safely go into a bar, sign my Utah waiver that says I can legally purchase drink, proclaim that I'm a socialist, and NOT get the shit beat out of me out back. Deal?
	4:26am Toronto Jim: Sue P: The REAL Utahans will have a problem with that "w" sound in your pronunciation. (After all, it ain't Arkansas). Which raises another interesting question: What do blow-hard, arsehole senators from Arkansas call THEIR citizens (besides "chumps")?
	4:27am crom: skullflower sounding good ...
	4:28am Sue P: People from Arkansas are called Arkansans, I believe.
	4:28am crom: 4:20
	4:30am Toronto Jim: Shit, Sue P: You're right! For a mo' there, I was tinkering with "Arkanawans." BTW, has anyone ever teased you by calling you Sue P. Sales? (He's still alive, you know)
	4:37am Sue P: bar....yez, I have heard the Sue P Sales thing a few times.
	4:37am Toronto Jim: 4:20, eh? Well, it so happens that I'm just fresh out of the wonderful Collingwood dope I normally smoke. In the spirit of 4:20, though, I would (SERIOUSLY for a moment) ask you all to write to your local corrupt congressman and demand that Marc Emery be set free as soon as he lands in the US. (He's a major dope crusader up here, who has sold seeds on the internet for years -- which is LEGAL in Canada. Our spineless, shitty Conservative government, under hefty pressure from DICK Cheney, Dubya, et al, is EXTRADITING Emery to the US of A to serve a lengthy prison term for his "crimes." He's doing a bittersweet "farewell tour" of our country, with lots and lots of smoke, before he has to take a government plane down "there" and get handcuffed. What do you think about justice, eh?)
	4:41am Sue P: Get this: wikipedia refers to people from Utah as "Utahns"!
	4:42am crom: yeah but i bet it's pronounced the same way
	4:43am Toronto Jim: Sue P! Thanks! "Utahns?!" Sounds like the way all Americans pronounce words all the time -- that laaawng draaawl!
	4:46am Sue P: That's just Southerners, Jim. There are so many fascinating regional accents here, you'd be hard pressed to generalize like that.
	4:48am crom: wow i dig this
	4:50am Toronto Jim: Fair play, Sue. I actually do know a few of the atrocious American accents. Anyone from the southern shores of the Great Lakes sounds like an extra from "Fargo." Noo Joiseyians sound like... well, best leave that one alone. Mid-Bible-Belt Southerners sound possessed, and not a bit stoopid. Deep Southerners sound charming indeed, until you learn that they think you (from Toronto) are from Ireland. Stoopid.
	4:50am Torbjørn: Is the mp3 stream working properly ? The stream has had the same sounds coming out of it for hours. It plays the same thing for 30 seconds, then stops .. and my player falls off.
	4:52am crom: i was having trouble earlier too
	4:53am Toronto Jim: Torbjørn: My stream is fucking up as well. But at least my player isn't falling off. (It's right here in my hands, and working just "fine" (don't tell Sue P. that I'm thinking of her all the while).
	4:57am Sue P: Hey all....I just checked the live stream, too, and it does seem to be messed up! I'll see what I can do over here, though I'm not super tech-savvy.
	4:58am Sue P: Restarting your computer is always a safe bet....
	5:00am Toronto Jim: Restart my computer?! You must be mad! I've got 12 applications running, and probably 30 or so files open! If the feed is fucked up everywhere from Joisey to Norway, my restarting ain't going to help much!
	5:06am Torbjørn: I do kind of agree .. not that I wouldn't do whatever Sue P tells me to, but as a computer professional, I don't restart my computers on principle.
	5:10am Toronto Jim: Right you are, Torbjørn! Now, are you really from Norway, as I had guessed? Or just Sweden?
	5:10am Sue P: I know you're right but I'm at a loss....
	5:11am Sue P: hahaha...what does that mean: "just Sweden"?
	5:14am Torbjørn: Toronto Jim: You hit the Scandinavian jackpot there, I'm in Haugesund, Norway. Actually, they don't have my "ø" in Sweden, but they do in Denmark. "just sweden" means you're one of those oppressive, to-good-for-Scandinavia old imperialists across the border !
	5:14am Toronto Jim: Norway is to Sweden what Canada is to the USA (or what New Zealand is to Australia) -- the "little" brother. So, as a Canadian, I invert the relationship (on principle) in order to make our Norwegian friend feel (rightfully) superior to his "big" brother Swedes. It's a game we lesser nationalities play when you bigger nationalities aren't looking.
	5:19am Torbjørn: Ah yes, "the game" .. Of course, we're richer now, and we import a lot of Swedish labor, so maybe that dynamic is changing. What about you, Jim ? Are you looking forward to picking up NY hipsters outside of your local Home Depot when the US economy really tanks ?
	5:19am Toronto Jim: Yay! I guessed Torbjørn's nationality! Now, Torbjørn: are you thinking in English when you write? Or are you thinking in Bokmal, or Landsmal? (See, we lesser nationalities know a little thing or two about others)
	5:20am Toronto Jim: Torbjørn: What do you mean "when the US economy tanks?" When it tanks, ours tanks, and yours too.
	5:22am Toronto Jim: ...and by "tanks," I don't mean a person from the Bronx appreciating some goodwill gesture you have made towards him/her
	5:27am Sue P: You can take as many NY hipsters as you want. I won't miss them.
	5:29am Torbjørn: Well, I was mostly trying to make a joke based on economic circumstances versus "bigger nationalities" relationship to neighboring "lesser nationalities" and respective labor imports .. As for thinking, in this English context, I think in jumbled mix of Bokmål / my local dialect and English, I guess. I'm right here on the Landsmål (which is called Nynorsk now) border, but it's Bokmål all the way .. what about you, Parle vous Francais ?
	5:37am Toronto Jim: Oui, je parle le français, mais pas si disertement, tu sais. Selon moi, je me "débrouille" en français. Mais je ne sais aucun norvégien, tant pis. (Mais, si tu comprends le français, nous pouvons ridiculer les américains ici, sans qu'ils puissent comprendre!)
	5:40am Sue P: Oh, Jim, je parle aussi le francais, mon ami!
	5:46am Toronto Jim: Sue P! C'est merveilleux! Je viens d'expliquer à Torbjørn comment si doux soient les américains comme toi! Nous, toi et moi, nous devons nous communiquer en français de temps en temps.
	5:48am Sue P: C'est vrai mais mon vocabulaire est tres petit! I am much smarter en anglais..ha!
	5:49am Torbjørn: Alas, my French barely allows me to parse that. The two Norwegian languages are very similar to each other, not like English and French at all. However, it looks like we won't fly under Sue P's multilingual radar anytime soon ..
	5:51am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Moi aussi, bien sûr! Tu l'as dit! Je suis... comment dire... way smarter in English!
	5:55am Toronto Jim: Hey Torbjørn: For a guy who can speak a crazy language that nobody speaks, like... Norwegian, you sure have pretty fekking good English (far better than a lot of Americans have, or Canadians for that matter). I'd love to learn Norwegian some day. ("What for?!" people will ask, and I'll tell them simply to fuck off.)
	6:01am Toronto Jim: I have been teaching myself Welsh over the last few years. When I mention that to people, their jaws drop as if I'd just pulled out my penis. "B-b-but... WHY?!" they gasp. "Just 'cause," I cooly reply. I just LIKE the language -- it's beautiful in its archaic, crazy way.
	6:32am Iikka from Helsinki: Wow, the most comments I've seen here EVER! I am listening to old archives after three-week vacation, great show as always.
	6:36am Iikka from Helsinki: And regarding the Scandinavian inferiority/superiority complexes, we Finns used to feel like kid brothers to the Swedes as well. That's why many people here were amused to see these Norwegian Anti-Sweden jeans... http://fashion.mirror.co.uk/2009/03/anti-swedish-jeans-brand-nor-w.html In one of their ads they use music from Sunn 0))) !

	2:56am Sue P: Bill - I wouldn't recommend that pick up line, but that's just me....
	2:57am bill: ok
	2:59am Toronto Jim: "Ill" show you indeed. And I've never heard of anyone having cerebral "blazy." Only arsonists, as far as I'm concerned, have "blazy." And, of course, as Sue P has pointed out, you'll NEVER get laid with that line -- not, at least, until you can pronounce it.
	3:00am crom: yo, are you currently hailing from TO?
	3:00am Sue P: Ha ha...well, after a few drinks everything either becomes really funny and great or horribly dreadful, so maybe it has a small chance.
	3:00am bill: that was a typo--i meant to say Ballzy
	3:02am Toronto Jim: Hailing frequencies open... coming in at/for/to you from Toronto the Good...
	3:03am bill: i was in toronto twice. nice city. very clean and safe
	3:03am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Horribly dreadful is too, too often...
	3:03am crom: JAM-CALAMITIES!!! my audio is not working anymore, i can't hear shit tru da ear buds!
	3:07am Toronto Jim: Bill: Toronto is currently without garbage pick-up for 31 days. And you know what? It's still not that dirty here. People are being very, very un-garbagey so far. Keep your garbage to yourselves! No crossing picket lines! Long live strike action! Make the whole world a better place! Or die!
	3:10am bill: well, i'll tell you--i went in the late 80s when i was going to NYU, and new york had gone to complete shit. it was dirty, smelled like piss in the summer, grafrittii and exhust smell all over the subway stations, so when i got to toronto and saw a city could be well maintained, it was a real shock
	3:12am Sue P: Why do you Canadians always have to behave better than us Americans? Can't you see you're making us look bad? ha!
	3:13am crom: got audio fixed just in time, caught some wild sax! RULIN'!
	3:13am crom: garbage is cool though
	3:14am Toronto Jim: Bill: People here (SOME of them) are trying very hard to make Toronto as dirty and stinky as NY. It seems to me that these lessons about "how a city COULD be" are bullshit. To quote a couple of genius musicians: "You don't miss your water till your well runs dry" and... "Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got till it's gone"
	3:14am bill: hey, any country that has hockey as a national sport is ok by me
	3:16am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Joke well appreciated. However, we actually don't make you look bad. You do that all by yourselves. The thing is: you don't HAVE TO.
	3:16am bill: ............and besides, it is just too COLD to go out up there and do any real damage
	3:17am Toronto Jim: The good old hockey game is the best game you can name...
	3:17am Sue P: Indeed, Jim, I am well aware that we make our own bed, so to speak. Just needling you.
	3:18am bill: jim: maple leafs fan ?
	3:18am Toronto Jim: Cold? If you really want cold, go to Buffalo! Way colder than here. Lake Erie is totally unforgiving! Lake Ontario is much more... umm... prosaic.
	3:19am Toronto Jim: Leafs fan? Bite yer fekking tongue! Of course I'm a goddamn Leafs fan! Death to the Habs!
	3:20am bill: rangers for me
	3:21am crom: brittle
	3:21am Toronto Jim: Bill: Death to the Blueshirts!
	3:22am crom: North Stars all the way ..
	3:23am bill: alright.. i gotta crash. goodnight everybody. enjoy yourselves and your cerebral ballzies
	3:24am Toronto Jim: Ah, the good ol' expansion North Stars. May Bill Masterton rest in peace -- poor guy.
	3:27am Pieter: Good morning Sue P , Good morning all
	3:28am Toronto Jim: Bill Masterton, by the way, was (so far) the only pro hockey player ever to die DIRECTLY as a result from an on-ice injury. Before his bloodied head nodded off to death, he told a teammate: "Never again. Never again." Then he died. True story.
	3:29am Sue P: Good morning, Pieter. We're having a little hockey lesson from Toronto Jim today. Welcome!
	3:34am Toronto Jim: Hi Pieter. No lesson -- just a remembrance ('cause Crom liked the North Stars) of a player (sans helmet) who died in a freaky way and whose memory lives on in a lesser-known NHL trophy for sportsmanship. If he'd had a helmet, he wouldn't have died. (He died, by the way, in 1968. They didn't make helmets mandatory until eleven years later. Think about that...)
	3:36am Sue P: It's a lesson for me! Thanks for sharing. I grew up in a town without (professional) hockey...
	3:37am Toronto Jim: What town, Sue?
	3:38am Sue P: Cleveland, Ohio
	3:39am Sue P: ...so I KNOW Lake Erie.
	3:39am Toronto Jim: Cleveland?! Why, you silly ninny, you had the Cleveland Barons in the NHL for, oh, two years or so, before they went tits-up. (1977-78 or thereabouts)
	3:40am crom: Broten and Ciccarelli were on the ice during my formative years
	3:41am Sue P: Yes, I know that! I'm just saying that growing up there was no team in the present...only the past. Not the same.
	3:42am crom: cleveland joined w/ the north stars
	3:42am crom: you should really get a Barons jersey Sue P!
	3:42am Toronto Jim: I KNOW that you know Erie! That's a mofo-ing lake like no other! Shallow as hell (for its size), and so you get GREAT fekking winds off of her. And sh*tloads of fekking garbage and detritus and flotsam!
	3:44am Toronto Jim: Crom: True dat! The Barons were so woefully broke that they didn't even move towns! They just packed all their gear up and joined with the already-existing North Stars.
	3:45am Toronto Jim: Sue: Don;t bother getting a Barons jersey -- ugliest things ever worn on ice!
	3:46am Sue P: My dad has an old Barons program somewhere...I don't remember their logo though.
	3:47am crom: whatev dude. i can think of way worse jerseys. check this: http://aycu20.webshots.com/image/14899/2003124428316918073_rs.jpg
	3:48am Toronto Jim: Barons logo here, Sue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Barons_(NHL) Fekking UGLY!
	3:49am Toronto Jim: Crom: You were a bit ahead of me there. Well done! The players' numbers used to be inside that little shoulder-map-of-Ohio. What a laugh!
	3:51am crom: into it
	3:52am crom: i used to ski race against the Canuks and they always had lots of molsen with them. not much for competition though.
	3:53am Toronto Jim: Worst NHL jerseys ever (no particular order, since they're all so bad): Tampa Bay Lightning Cleveland Barons Florida Panthers Carolina Hurricanes Phoenix Coyotes (their entry-year monstrosities) Vancouver Canucks (take your pick -- easily twelve different jerseys since inception -- sheesh!)
	3:54am Toronto Jim: Which Molson?
	3:54am crom: turns out that's my list of favorite jerseys
	3:55am Toronto Jim: Well, Crom, there you go: CROM = AMERICAN
	3:55am crom: does this have what's his name on drums?
	3:56am crom: full of garbage and proud of it!
	4:00am Toronto Jim: Crom: Also full of the insidious, stupid practice of naming sports teams in the singular (Lightning, Wild, Jazz, Magic, etc) Thanks a lot, USA. Utah Jazz?! indeed! (Utah fekking Narrow-minded Christians, rather...)
	4:01am crom: single word names? sounds fine to me ...
	4:03am Toronto Jim: Do they even allow jazz clubs to exist in Utah? I just heard that, as of last month, you no longer have to sign a waiver to get a beer in Utah.
	4:04am Toronto Jim: Crom: I'll correct your last entry: "Single-wprd name? sound fine to me"
	4:06am Toronto Jim: Oh, great -- I misspell a fekking word when I'm correcting someone else... I am the loser that you always knew I was. I'm slapping myself for that idiotic mistake of mine. I'm slapping myself so much that... wait... I think... yes.. I'M ENJOYING IT. (Sue P: turn your eyes away!)
	4:09am crom: i think my audio feed is behind the real-time. my computer is totally messed.
	4:09am Toronto Jim: I repeat (and I want an answer from one of you smug Utah-Americans): Do they even allow jazz clubs to exist in Utah? I just heard that, as of last month, you no longer have to sign a waiver to get a beer in Utah.
	4:12am Toronto Jim: Not sure what's up with my iTunes feed either. There's been no sound at all for about an hour -- keeps on lying to me with its "rebuffering stream" nonsense. Don't care, though -- thoroughly enjoying the company of all you people, (Well, that and my industrial-strength insomnia)
	4:12am Sue P: I don't know much about Utah: there are Mormons there and there are ski resorts there. That's about it.
	4:14am Toronto Jim: What is a person from Utah called? Utahan? (Like, when a fekking blow-hard senator gets up to speak on behalf of his state's citizens, what does he call them?)
	4:15am Toronto Jim: Licence plate?: "UTAH -- HOME OF THE WESTERN WORLD'S ONLY COMPLETELY MADE-UP RELIGION"
	4:16am Sue P: That's an excellent question! I'm gonna guess "Utahian" but I really don't know.
	4:16am crom: there's the great salt lake, Spiral Jetty, Moab ... tons of great stuff, beautiful scenery, etc. TO Jim should check it out some time. who cares about if mormons are weirdos, you don't have to be one or anything to got there.
	4:17am Toronto Jim: Shit. Check that. There's also the scientologists, yes?
	4:19am Toronto Jim: Sue P: I'm with you on your extrapolation. Utahian. I like it. BUT... how do you pronounce it?
	4:20am crom: bryce, zion, arches, and monument valley -- all heavy spots, all in utah
	4:20am Sue P: you-taw-ee-an
	4:21am crom: !!
	4:22am Toronto Jim: Crom: I will check Utah out sometime -- like sometime after I can safely go into a bar, sign my Utah waiver that says I can legally purchase drink, proclaim that I'm a socialist, and NOT get the shit beat out of me out back. Deal?
	4:26am Toronto Jim: Sue P: The REAL Utahans will have a problem with that "w" sound in your pronunciation. (After all, it ain't Arkansas). Which raises another interesting question: What do blow-hard, arsehole senators from Arkansas call THEIR citizens (besides "chumps")?
	4:27am crom: skullflower sounding good ...
	4:28am Sue P: People from Arkansas are called Arkansans, I believe.
	4:28am crom: 4:20
	4:30am Toronto Jim: Shit, Sue P: You're right! For a mo' there, I was tinkering with "Arkanawans." BTW, has anyone ever teased you by calling you Sue P. Sales? (He's still alive, you know)
	4:37am Sue P: bar....yez, I have heard the Sue P Sales thing a few times.
	4:37am Toronto Jim: 4:20, eh? Well, it so happens that I'm just fresh out of the wonderful Collingwood dope I normally smoke. In the spirit of 4:20, though, I would (SERIOUSLY for a moment) ask you all to write to your local corrupt congressman and demand that Marc Emery be set free as soon as he lands in the US. (He's a major dope crusader up here, who has sold seeds on the internet for years -- which is LEGAL in Canada. Our spineless, shitty Conservative government, under hefty pressure from DICK Cheney, Dubya, et al, is EXTRADITING Emery to the US of A to serve a lengthy prison term for his "crimes." He's doing a bittersweet "farewell tour" of our country, with lots and lots of smoke, before he has to take a government plane down "there" and get handcuffed. What do you think about justice, eh?)
	4:41am Sue P: Get this: wikipedia refers to people from Utah as "Utahns"!
	4:42am crom: yeah but i bet it's pronounced the same way
	4:43am Toronto Jim: Sue P! Thanks! "Utahns?!" Sounds like the way all Americans pronounce words all the time -- that laaawng draaawl!
	4:46am Sue P: That's just Southerners, Jim. There are so many fascinating regional accents here, you'd be hard pressed to generalize like that.
	4:48am crom: wow i dig this
	4:50am Toronto Jim: Fair play, Sue. I actually do know a few of the atrocious American accents. Anyone from the southern shores of the Great Lakes sounds like an extra from "Fargo." Noo Joiseyians sound like... well, best leave that one alone. Mid-Bible-Belt Southerners sound possessed, and not a bit stoopid. Deep Southerners sound charming indeed, until you learn that they think you (from Toronto) are from Ireland. Stoopid.
	4:50am Torbjørn: Is the mp3 stream working properly ? The stream has had the same sounds coming out of it for hours. It plays the same thing for 30 seconds, then stops .. and my player falls off.
	4:52am crom: i was having trouble earlier too
	4:53am Toronto Jim: Torbjørn: My stream is fucking up as well. But at least my player isn't falling off. (It's right here in my hands, and working just "fine" (don't tell Sue P. that I'm thinking of her all the while).
	4:57am Sue P: Hey all....I just checked the live stream, too, and it does seem to be messed up! I'll see what I can do over here, though I'm not super tech-savvy.
	4:58am Sue P: Restarting your computer is always a safe bet....
	5:00am Toronto Jim: Restart my computer?! You must be mad! I've got 12 applications running, and probably 30 or so files open! If the feed is fucked up everywhere from Joisey to Norway, my restarting ain't going to help much!
	5:06am Torbjørn: I do kind of agree .. not that I wouldn't do whatever Sue P tells me to, but as a computer professional, I don't restart my computers on principle.
	5:10am Toronto Jim: Right you are, Torbjørn! Now, are you really from Norway, as I had guessed? Or just Sweden?
	5:10am Sue P: I know you're right but I'm at a loss....
	5:11am Sue P: hahaha...what does that mean: "just Sweden"?
	5:14am Torbjørn: Toronto Jim: You hit the Scandinavian jackpot there, I'm in Haugesund, Norway. Actually, they don't have my "ø" in Sweden, but they do in Denmark. "just sweden" means you're one of those oppressive, to-good-for-Scandinavia old imperialists across the border !
	5:14am Toronto Jim: Norway is to Sweden what Canada is to the USA (or what New Zealand is to Australia) -- the "little" brother. So, as a Canadian, I invert the relationship (on principle) in order to make our Norwegian friend feel (rightfully) superior to his "big" brother Swedes. It's a game we lesser nationalities play when you bigger nationalities aren't looking.
	5:19am Torbjørn: Ah yes, "the game" .. Of course, we're richer now, and we import a lot of Swedish labor, so maybe that dynamic is changing. What about you, Jim ? Are you looking forward to picking up NY hipsters outside of your local Home Depot when the US economy really tanks ?
	5:19am Toronto Jim: Yay! I guessed Torbjørn's nationality! Now, Torbjørn: are you thinking in English when you write? Or are you thinking in Bokmal, or Landsmal? (See, we lesser nationalities know a little thing or two about others)
	5:20am Toronto Jim: Torbjørn: What do you mean "when the US economy tanks?" When it tanks, ours tanks, and yours too.
	5:22am Toronto Jim: ...and by "tanks," I don't mean a person from the Bronx appreciating some goodwill gesture you have made towards him/her
	5:27am Sue P: You can take as many NY hipsters as you want. I won't miss them.
	5:29am Torbjørn: Well, I was mostly trying to make a joke based on economic circumstances versus "bigger nationalities" relationship to neighboring "lesser nationalities" and respective labor imports .. As for thinking, in this English context, I think in jumbled mix of Bokmål / my local dialect and English, I guess. I'm right here on the Landsmål (which is called Nynorsk now) border, but it's Bokmål all the way .. what about you, Parle vous Francais ?
	5:37am Toronto Jim: Oui, je parle le français, mais pas si disertement, tu sais. Selon moi, je me "débrouille" en français. Mais je ne sais aucun norvégien, tant pis. (Mais, si tu comprends le français, nous pouvons ridiculer les américains ici, sans qu'ils puissent comprendre!)
	5:40am Sue P: Oh, Jim, je parle aussi le francais, mon ami!
	5:46am Toronto Jim: Sue P! C'est merveilleux! Je viens d'expliquer à Torbjørn comment si doux soient les américains comme toi! Nous, toi et moi, nous devons nous communiquer en français de temps en temps.
	5:48am Sue P: C'est vrai mais mon vocabulaire est tres petit! I am much smarter en anglais..ha!
	5:49am Torbjørn: Alas, my French barely allows me to parse that. The two Norwegian languages are very similar to each other, not like English and French at all. However, it looks like we won't fly under Sue P's multilingual radar anytime soon ..
	5:51am Toronto Jim: Sue P: Moi aussi, bien sûr! Tu l'as dit! Je suis... comment dire... way smarter in English!
	5:55am Toronto Jim: Hey Torbjørn: For a guy who can speak a crazy language that nobody speaks, like... Norwegian, you sure have pretty fekking good English (far better than a lot of Americans have, or Canadians for that matter). I'd love to learn Norwegian some day. ("What for?!" people will ask, and I'll tell them simply to fuck off.)
	6:01am Toronto Jim: I have been teaching myself Welsh over the last few years. When I mention that to people, their jaws drop as if I'd just pulled out my penis. "B-b-but... WHY?!" they gasp. "Just 'cause," I cooly reply. I just LIKE the language -- it's beautiful in its archaic, crazy way.
	6:32am Iikka from Helsinki: Wow, the most comments I've seen here EVER! I am listening to old archives after three-week vacation, great show as always.
	6:36am Iikka from Helsinki: And regarding the Scandinavian inferiority/superiority complexes, we Finns used to feel like kid brothers to the Swedes as well. That's why many people here were amused to see these Norwegian Anti-Sweden jeans... http://fashion.mirror.co.uk/2009/03/anti-swedish-jeans-brand-nor-w.html In one of their ads they use music from Sunn 0))) !
