Listener comments!

  6:01am
Chuck:

Morning! Gonna stop by Mt. Rushmore?
  6:02am
Meghan:

I think we missed bike week right?
  6:02am
Andy in Berlin:

Omaha! Good Morning everybody!
  6:03am
Elwyn:

Evening!

Which state is Mount Rushmore in?
  6:03am
Chuck:

Bike week? Not sure what you're on about...
Morning, guys!
  6:03am
Meghan:

oh, nice one Andy! Mt Rushmore is in South Dakota
  6:04am
Elwyn:

(Too lazy to google it. ha ha ha!)
  6:04am
Meghan:

Sturgis! It's in South Dakota too. It's one of the biggest motorcycle meet ups
  6:05am
Andy in Berlin:

I knew Dakota but ashamed to say I couldn't remember which one.
  6:05am
Elwyn:

Andy: You had a 50/50 chance of guessing. :-)
  6:06am
Andy in Berlin:

I always have a 50/50 chance. I'm either right or I'm wrong.
  6:06am
Chuck:

I one of the "monuments" we have in this country that was built as a tourist attraction... What else is in S. Dakota that anyone would want to go see? hehe...
  6:07am
Andy in Berlin:

The Black Hills? Or is that North?
  6:07am
Chuck:

Ooops... First word should have been "It's"...
  6:08am
Meghan:

That is south... at least from what I can tell from the songs!
  6:08am
Andy in Berlin:

THE CORN PALACE!!!
  6:13am
Chuck:

Nippy up here this morning.. 43 degrees F. Fall has arrived!
  6:15am
Meghan:

It's been cold around here too. I am layered up... but I am still wearing flip flops! ha!
  6:16am
Chuck:

Not me! My feet would be the first to get cold!
  6:18am
Elwyn:

The weather in Sydney has gotten nicer but I'm still waking up too late to ride to work... and it's warm enough for the cockroaches to come back.

Now, I just need to wait for the landlord to clean the communal pool!
  6:20am
Andy in Berlin:

Ooo I like Victoria Spivey! Waiting for Freberg...
  6:20am
Chuck:

Ah, Spring is a great season too!
  6:22am
Andy in Berlin:

Fall is nice, but it was always tainted by the feeling of having to go back to school. But, hey - I don't have to go anymore!
  6:23am
Chuck:

Huh, wasn't sure whether you'd pass on Bruce or not, Meg....
  6:24am
Meghan:

I am a huge fall fan. Those New England autumns make me long to go back, just to bottle up those smells. I love the autumn activities too. Apple picking, pumpkins, crisp air, sweaters, the Topsfield Fair (4H fair), etc.
  6:25am
Chuck:

Yeah, the cooler temps make me think of back to school too, Andy!
  6:26am
Elwyn:

I'm seeing the other Fall in December - their first tour of Oz in 20 years or something.
  6:28am
Elwyn:

Ralphie!! Ralph Wigham!
  6:31am
Chuck:

Busy month for those of the Jewish faith...
Apple picking has already commenced here, Meg! They have raspberries too, if interested...
  6:34am
Chuck:

Means I'm gonna have to deal with hoards of tourists every weekend though... I can't stand tourists!!! They make it so difficult for me to get anything done! Ugh!!!
  6:59am
Chuck:

*sigh* Just put summer clothes away. Don't think I'll need them anymore this year. *sigh*
  7:06am
Chuck:

What do you get when you mix lye with fat or oil?
  7:08am
andrew:

soap...
  7:10am
Meghan:

all I can think of is Fight Club.... ewww
  7:10am
Chuck:

Yup! Could be the gelatinous stuff that Meghan was talking about. Soap fish? Can't be good...
  7:12am
andrew:

it is supposed to be very good for hangovers due to its low ph. I have not tried it I must say.
  7:12am
Chuck:

I makes me think of the end of "The Pope of Greenwich Village" where Mickey Rouke's brother character put lye in the gangsters tea! Gah!
  7:13am
annie:

morning meghan!!!
and lutefisk is washed a million times before it's cooked, so the lye is washed out.. i saw one of those food shows with the guy who eats weird things.. not bourdain, but the other one i like better..
  7:14am
Chuck:

Depends on how often you need a hangover remedy, Andrew! Ha!
  7:14am
Meghan:

Zimmerman....

Yeah, you can't pay me to eat that. Foul. Andy, is it good for hangovers the same way that if a bird poops on you it's good luck?
  7:15am
andrew:

if you want to learn about some really foul cuisine, check out Icelandic foods.. think shark, urine, ferment for months underground..
  7:16am
Chuck:

What did you think of Icelandic cuisine when you were there, Meg?
  7:18am
Meghan:

I went there.... I never got to see anything like that. I was looking for Puffin and shark. They do it like Kimchi... Sadly, I either never saw it or didn't understand what was written (Icelandic is a HARD language!). Plus, if you go there, you understand why they eat that.... it's volcanic rock everywhere! they have to import everything
  7:21am
annie:

meghan it's been a life-long dream of mine to go to iceland....
  7:24am
Meghan:

They had really cheap airfare on Iceland Air, something like $300 for round trip and hotel for 3 days, 2 nights. It was EXPENSIVE. I am glad I went, but I think I would go in the summer instead!
  7:24am
Chuck:

Hum, some lutefisk, kimchi, and caviar ice cream for desert. Let's have a nice meal! *gags*
  7:27am
Chuck:

Yah, yah!
  7:31am
Chuck:

Otterness, I assume, Meghan?
  7:32am
Meghan:

Yep!
  7:32am
Elwyn:

I hope we have some good songs about Roswell, New Mexico, next week.

Montana makes me think of Sean Connery and Sam Neil's bad Russian accents in "The Hunt for Red October"
  7:33am
Parq:

A ranch off one sculpture? Man, Meg, who do you work for?
  7:34am
Chuck:

Think I made a mold of a smaller version of that bear. It was only about 11" high.
  7:36am
Meghan:

Parq, I used to work for Tom Otterness... the guy who makes the monopoly looking figures in the 14th St. Station. Chuck, do you remember the large one Gary, Pete and I worked on?
  7:37am
Chuck:

Of course. I just did some more of Tom's pieces a few month's ago. Small stuff with bears and bulls!
  7:42am
robert:

any pygyme ponies coming?
  7:42am
Dave B:

One day maybe I'll get an iPhone and then I can have UWTP with me on the morning run
  7:44am
Meghan:

Awww poor Dave! No Pygyme Ponies.... Should there be?

For the Lutefisk lovers- Richard posted info on it on the UWTP facebook page....
  7:47am
Chuck:

Morning, Dave! Pass on the lutefisk! I'll take Gravlax instead. Tasty Scandinavian salt cured salmon with lots of dill! Yummy!
  7:48am
robert:

Frank Zappa's Montana! "Me and the pygmy pony, over by the dental floss bush" Very funny song
  7:48am
Meghan:

*giggles* I love when people give a speech in the middle of songs.... I find it funny
  7:49am
Binky:

It must be true because it's echoey
  7:49am
Dave B:

Lifestyle change with the coming of Fall. Why just this summer my niece, who grew up in Bolton Landing and graduated from B.U. moved out to Big Sky Montana

And the pony's name was "Mighty Little"
  7:49am
Meghan:

Coffee hasn't kicked in.... it's coming!
  7:50am
Meghan:

HA!! I love it Binky!! So true!
  7:51am
Parq:

I was gonna say, Meg, you realize that we're all just sitting her, thinking "whatever" to all these other songs and waiting for the Zappa.
  7:51am
Chuck:

So is Otterness planing on becoming a dental floss tycoon?
Yay, JD! One of my guilty pleasures....
  7:52am
Parq:

Chuck, he's gonna be a menyl tloss flycoon.
  7:54am
Dave B:

I think there are some Otterness pieces at the Hilton Times Square too
  7:55am
Meghan:

Yep, there are. I worked on those too.....
  7:56am
Chuck:

Battery Park, as well if I remember.
  7:58am
Parq:

Oh, *that* guy! And my coffee was ready just as the Zappa began. Perfect.
  7:58am
Dave B:

and see, Chuck with the guilty pleasures... I think 1 per listener/follower and you have a show...

oh, and Zappa Plays Zappa on what would be FZs birthday @ the Beacon Theater. The entire "Apostrophe" album. Tix = scored!
  7:59am
Meghan:

I told Jeff about that... I think he might get tix. He loved the video he saw of it...
  7:59am
mohawkdave:

Good morning Meghan; Finally up early enough to tune in! Sure looks like I've picked the right day! I agree, Chuck....I must admit I played the lp and teared up a bit the day he passed... =: (
  7:59am
Parq:

I don't care if you think it's silly, folks.
  8:02am
Dave B:

@Meghan - do it. I saw him a few years back and it was phenomenal. They'll be performing along with some unreleased film footage...I plan to host a gathering at my place before (Beacon's right around the corner)
  8:02am
Dave B:

by "him" I mean ZpZ.
  8:04am
Dave B:

I'm stopping thru Iceland in November. WOO HOO! I lurv Iceland. Maybe I'll try the puffin this time around.
  8:05am
Meghan:

Hey there MohawkDave! How are you?! Glad you made it!
  8:05am
Meghan:

If you can find it! Where are you off to in November Dave?
  8:06am
Chuck:

Puffin, such a goofy looking bird.
Must mean JD's "Song of Wyoming" is in this set...
  8:08am
Meghan:

Nope Chuck.... wrong state!
  8:08am
Dave B:

@Meghan - Paris and points in France. 11/8 thru 22. My first real vaca in about 3 years...
  8:09am
Dave B:

Puffin is like the bastard child of a Mackaw and Penguin
  8:10am
Meghan:

Oh nice Dave! Have fun! Are you going to eat FRAWNCH FRIES? FRAWNCH DRESSING and to drink PERU!
  8:12am
mohawkdave:

Doin' jus' fine thank ya. Nice stoppin' by.... =:) I usually tune in round 'bout 8:58... Y'all get up too early!
  8:13am
Chuck:

Ah, Must be "Rocky Mountain High" then. The song that got me to want to go to Fort Carson when I was in the Army. It's just south of Colorado Springs.
One of my neighbors up the street raises Guinea Hens, Dave. Another freaky looking bird!
  8:13am
Dave B:

Oui. and zee FRAWNCH TOAST!
  8:14am
Auk:

What about me, do I look like a plate of liver?
  8:14am
Dave B:

Little raptors...
  8:16am
Chuck:

The guinea hens wander over into my yard now and again. Noisy little SOBs!
  8:16am
Parq:

Nice fade on the Zappa/Beefhart. That's not an easy cut to make.
  8:18am
Dave B:

@chuck - are they good eatin critters? That's what guns and frying pans are for...
  8:18am
Elwyn:

This is me being nerdy: the hamburger in Better Off Dead has a guitar coloured like Eddie VH's Frankstrat BUT the tremolo bar position is totally wrong.
  8:19am
Meghan:

Auk, as long as you aren't Chopped Liver!
  8:19am
jeff p:

@Elwyn - That drives me nuts, too!
  8:20am
Elwyn:

@Chuck re Dave's question: I bought my first Ted Nugent album today: Weekend Warriors. Gayest back cover ever... Not that there's anything wrong with that
  8:20am
Chuck:

So I'm told, Dave! I need a more powerful pellet gun to make it happen though. My .22 would alert neighbors to easily... hehe...
  8:21am
Dave B:

@Auk - if we fatten you up we can make Pate to spread on ze baguette!

Oui oui!
  8:22am
Thanley:

  8:23am
Chuck:

Makes me think of Cloris Leachman in Mel Brooks' "History of the World".

"WHAT?"
  8:24am
Dave B:

What up TH...
  8:25am
Chuck:

I need to go back to CO some day. It's really beautiful country...
  8:27am
Skirkie:

So Roy Rogers has a sort of homesick nostalgia for several states then, huh?
  8:27am
Thanley:

Matt's list thing was pretty cool. I did mine in 5 min,I just need to make it into a note.
  8:28am
Thanley:

Matt's list thing was pretty cool. I did mine in 5 min,I just need to make it into a note.
  8:28am
Dave B:

Heh! Again I thought it was Wednesday and went for a quick run this AM...

My mind is going... I can feel it...
  8:29am
Dave B:

and the 15 in 15 thing has provided some interesting notes. Matt's was kinda predictable.
  8:30am
Thanley:

Awesome videos,by the way!
  8:31am
Meghan:

Hey Skirkie! that is what happens when you are a cowboy... you travel around to be homesick for many states.... so many cattle, so little time!
  8:33am
jeff p:

so many sheep, so little time....
  8:33am
Dave B:

Do you smell mutton?
  8:33am
mohawkdave:

cattle, eh...? well afterall, there's not many women on the range!
  8:34am
Meghan:

It's either that or Brokeback Mountain....
  8:34am
Skirkie:

Yikes, didn't mean for the discussion to veer off quite like that.
  8:35am
Chuck:

Ya never know with this group, Skirkie!
  8:35am
Meghan:

*giggles*
  8:36am
Chuck:

You've just gotta roll with it!
  8:36am
jeff p:

"I can't quit you, Lambchop...."
  8:38am
fat bastard:

please quit laughing at your own jokes, you suck and the music on this show sucks even more
  8:39am
mohawkdave:

I roll with you! Oops sorry--wrong audience...
  8:39am
Dave B:

@Jeff P - HA!

On a lighter note I present Dolly Deathstar courtesy of Neatorama...

http://static.neatorama.com/images/2010-09/dolly-deathstar.jpg
  8:39am
Chuck:

I HAVE seen it "rainin' fire in the sky" when I was in CO!
  8:40am
Meghan:

Ahhh Fat Bastard.... there is a wonderful thing called the OFF button... go ahead, push it!
  8:40am

  8:41am
Meghan:

  8:42am
jeff p:

I can't quit Mohawk Dave, either.
  8:42am
jeff p:

No one likes a quitter.
  8:43am
Maggie B.:

Do I have to stage an intervention? Don't be mean to the DJ!
  8:43am
mohawkdave:

  8:43am
raj:

  8:43am
Meghan:

*smiles* Thanks Maggie!
  8:44am
Dave B:

or switch to Sanka..
  8:46am
Chuck:

I had a comp-sci professor in college named Sanka. The switch was easy...
  8:47am
Parq:

Oh thank God, I was out of the room for John Denver. He won a Grammy after he died. It's getting so you have to kill yourself to get noticed in this business.
  8:49am
Chuck:

So how do we get rid of Brittany, Parq?
  8:49am
Parq:

Sanka? You're welcome!

(You talk about bad jokes, FB, you ain't seen nothing yet.)
  8:50am
jeff p:

the grammys are a such a joke i don't know how anyone pays attention to them
  8:50am
Dave B:

The Sensational Paul Sanka.

http://www.broadwayworld.com/columnpic/Paul_Anka.jpg
  8:51am
fat bastard:

this show ends in 9 minutes right?
  8:51am
Chuck:

Agree, Jeff P! Why bother?
  8:51am
Meghan:

Though I do love that Steely Dan won one year and all of Jeff's students had no clue who they were....
  8:52am
Maggie B.:

Don't make me come over there, FB.
  8:53am
fat bastard:

Innocent question
  8:53am
Dave B:

That's right FB...

http://bit.ly/9i4eZX
  8:54am
jeff p:

so no saying FUCK for the next two weeks!
  8:54am
Skirkie:

It's so easy to be mean when anonymous, isn't it?
  8:55am
Dave B:

@Jeff P & Meghan - gotta do the F-Bomb theme soon!
  8:55am
Auk:

It's a good thing I'm extinct.
  8:55am
Chuck:

Relax kids. A blow-hard is nothing to get worked up about. And Meg is quite capable of taking care of business....
  8:56am
mohawkdave:

Thank you Meghan.. =:)
  8:56am
Dave B:

More Cowbell
  8:56am
Meghan:

Thanks Mohawkdave! Thanks all! Until next week!
  12:05pm
Ted in Toronto:

MC Solaar's "Le Nouveau Western" would fit nicely into next week's show
