	7:20pm Don (minister of props): Hi Monica - A note from next door to the Cyclones field - Aretha broke into what seemed to be an impromptu gospel recital at the piano when she 'bridged' Bridge Over Troubled Water and Still Water Runs Deep. Fully and beautifully orchestrated. Raw, ingenious and emotional. I was awestruck by her train. Who's harmonizing with Nina?

	7:28pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): .... that's the problem nowaday is only 2 seasons here in NYC winter -->> summer -->>> then winter again
	7:28pm Julie: @Tom you got that right. I stepped out for air, went right back in. Sun going down, still too muggy.
	7:29pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I agree Julie !!! some are turning their noses up maybe at it but I think it's pretty cool !!
	7:29pm Donna Summer: EFD Disco Show: Luv to luv it, baby.

	7:31pm Tir Chonaill Abu: Ah I would love to be in the middle of all that humidity and heat in NYC. No only messing know how sticky it can get over there. Hey if you get a chance catch this great radio docs on BBC Radio 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01302s4. Make sure you listen the whole way through
	7:32pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I was born in 1960 in those days me long hair , Led Zep t shirt would not admit to actually liking some of those early Disco songs they were good !!.. up until around 1978 ( Ie .. Rod " do youthink I'm sexy" they BLAHHH!!!
	7:32pm monica: hi julie and donna. i know efd will serve up nice and spicy with his disco special this wednesday - be sure to listen! hi there, tir - thanks for that link! heard about this.
	7:33pm Julie: I LIKE Last Dance. But then I was little when that stuff was going on.
	7:34pm Julie: oh and HI Butter!
	7:34pm Don (minister of props): Tom / Julie - I'm down with roller disco, funk disco, r&b disco, but don't wanna hear 'Disco (bad singles dance night) Inferno'
	7:35pm Julie: I think if you have enough cocaine all disco is good
	7:35pm cheri: good evening julie,,,last night i forgot to ask you what do you think of jerry lewis being fired from his own telethon??
	7:35pm Good Taste: @Don: Agreed. Burn that muthah down!
	7:36pm Julie: @cheri I think it stinks that's what I think. And few would disagree.
	7:36pm Jerry L.: After three repeats, even I am bored with myself.
	7:36pm trs: Humidity is the mud of the air. Here's to cool clean sheets
	7:36pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I do kind of agree with what George Clinton once said, "Disco is like making love with just one stroke ..'' it kinda killed the really hard corre/ get down in your face funk of the early 70's ..
	7:39pm Julie: ah that reminds me! Gotta put sheets in the dryer!
	7:39pm T-Zero: @Monica: Enjoying the show tonight. Looking forward to hearing what Funk does on Wednesday. (Born in 1956 so the flashbacks should be a hoot.) @Everyone discussing the weather... Yeppers and yeppers. For the first time in weeks it's only 71 one here, but the rain and humidity anything touching is like its stuck with duct tape.
	7:40pm seang: you're the best Monica!
	7:41pm Ben: Staying cool by tuneing to wfmu
	7:41pm cheri: monica & julie i'm not going to watch the telethon anymore,,,
	7:41pm dale: evenin' mo and kids. massive thunderstorms just ripped through the hudson valley and temp dropped. nice and refreshing outside verus the swampy air earlier in the day. i thought fer sure you were gonna hit us with some real everly bros, but another time maybe. at least nancy sinatra never covered phil and ray. i hope.
	7:42pm texas scott: fred and i do it the way you and butter do it. it's the only way.
	7:43pm Julie: Keep cool tip: skip dinner go right to ice cream
	7:44pm seang: getting naked helps too
	7:44pm Julie: Keep cool tip: walk around the house in WFMU t-shirt and nothing else
	7:45pm Julie: nudity + ice cream, what could go wrong?
	7:45pm Don (minister of props): I shmye next to the water (sprinkler, beach). Thanks God for what Bambaataa did bridging the whole dance music thing
	7:45pm seang: totally
	7:46pm Ice Cream: @Julie: I totally could, nod nod wink wink
	7:46pm Don (minister of props): Of course, you too Ms. M.
	7:47pm cheri: ohhh julie speaking of ice cream which brand do you like better? i love ben & jerrys much better!!!
	7:47pm Julie: cheri, please stop interviewing me, okay?
	7:49pm G: Turkey Hill isn't the greatest, but it's $1.67 for a full pint around here right now. Anyone notice that Haagen D. went down to 14 oz (not a 16 oz legit pint) by making the hollow area underneath the bottom bigger. Da sneaky bastids.
	7:49pm monica: be, always a sure shot solution...butter says hello right back, julie... good taste, don't let it keep you from havin' a good time!... thanks, trs - and yes!..well hey there, jerry ol.l!! ...hola, dale - good suggestion re: evs...
	7:49pm interviewer: piss off,cheri
	7:50pm Julie: I haven't had HD in so long..it's the most fattening thing ever :/
	7:50pm Listener Schned: Totally agree with hooking up A/C with the fan, you can actually switch back/forth; totally agree with going direct to ice cream/swanning about in the WFMU t-shirt, too- Regards from Sweatchester !!!
	7:50pm channeling Nardwuar: cheri is too annoying for my taste
	7:51pm Julie: "swanning about," I like that phrase
	7:51pm listener gary: Ivie Anderson: you can watch her tear it up in Day at the Races!!! Hey , dj Monica!!
	7:52pm other david: It has become autumnal and cold already here in Ireland, about 50F. Almost reaching for a jumper! Think I'll make some tea actually, that'll do it. Loving the tunes Monica, very very chilled out :)
	7:52pm programmer: eclectic sophisticated easy listening always works for a sunday night.
	7:54pm Julie: that was GREAT
	7:54pm texas scott: @other david...sounds like heaven. i shall dream of Ireland tonight.
	7:54pm Julie: @OD I'm coming over, I'll bring a sweater
	7:54pm Julie: Keep Cool Tip: Be Irish
	7:56pm G: Turkey Hill is "light", 400-500 calories a pint. HD is like 1200-1300 cals even at 14 rather than 16 oz. One must maintain one's girlish figure, I always say. Turkey Hill is not as good, but it is ice cream and gets me past that jonz.
	7:57pm sugarwolf: Ooo, looking forward to the EFD Disco Party. I was too busy being born and being a baby to listen to disco the first time around.
	7:58pm Doug S.: Oh my do I love Ivie Anderson! Oh my do I love Sunday evenings with Monica!
	7:59pm seang: that Network Awesome site is blowing my mind
	8:00pm david: My keep cool tip is those old-fashioned popsicles wrapped in plastic, like these: http://bit.ly/rkJ4H1 Kind of goes with the high fructose corn syrup theme of last week's sodas and Dallas BBQ frozen margaritas...
	8:00pm monica: Hi G, ice cream prices are CRAZY these days - that said, love Haag Daazs Pralines & Cream.... Listener Schned, a cool breeze to you, sir...Hi Listerner Gary - I know she's your type... other david, lovely to hear from a cuz in the old sod. thanks for tuning in... sugarwolf - i think we've got a group date going for EFD this week!...Doug S.!! Always too cool....
	8:03pm Julie: can you make popsicles out of captain morgan and coke?
	8:03pm Julie: I wonder if they still have those plastic things where you could make your own popsicles
	8:05pm david: @Julie we have some of those in a corner of a cabinet of our house... remnant of some former roommate... but they look really old school...
	8:05pm G: @Monica: Yeah, 4.49 for 14 oz of HD. WTF. I remember premium ice cream around 1990 being under 2 bucks. During the last 20 years the overall inflation rate has not been a total of 150% (from 2.00 to over 4.50 a pint). General inflation has been 3% or so a year, not 7%+ a year for 20 years. "They" just know they have some of us hooked, and price HD accordingly.
	8:06pm Julie: snacks? Near the station? Where?!
	8:07pm texas scott: they do still make them,Julie alcohol is hard to freeze, tho thanks for the cool,Mo
	8:07pm Julie: They were great! the little built in "stick" on the top.
	8:08pm G: They have freezable pops for 99 cents per package of 10 at Key Food. In my area of Brooklyn, I see the Jewish Orthodox moms and the Jamaican moms all stocking up on them. Let's all hold hands and sing kumbayah! :-)
	8:09pm CB1: @ panties - Didn't MM do that in 7 Year Itch?
	8:09pm Julie: @Tex, even with coke around it though? I bet it's hot as hell down there in TX. Summer time I am so glad I moved north!
	8:10pm david: Yeah, I have a distinct madeleine-like memory of orange juice on a plastic stick... My mom was a Tupperware lady and they were all over that.
	8:11pm dale: love the yvonne decarlo tale. i have her album 'yvonne decarlo sings', and sadly unremarkable. no julie london that miss wye-von.
	8:11pm trs: I did beercicles last year. Not the best idea. Doing diy ice cream sandwiches this year. Italian wafer cookies and a few spoons of ice-cream, mm.
	8:11pm Julie: i Want the lily munster dress. Best dress EVER
	8:12pm Julie: Keep Cool Tip: Flapping cockatiel at arm's length
	8:12pm david: @G Those must be exactly the ones I get. Except I get the 3 dozen size for 2.99
	8:13pm Julie: I'd like to know how to make my own slurpees! Now that would be a nice treat in this weather.
	8:14pm G: @david: Different stores price them differently, probably depending on what the local area will tolerate The exact same pack of 10 freezable pops that is 99 cents at Key Food in Central Brooklyn is 1.99 at KF in Staten Island.
	8:14pm david: Who was talking about song titles the same as band names, and possibly album names?
	8:16pm cheri: monica,,,julie i want the princess fiona gown,, cause i that would be cool!!!
	8:17pm dale: trs - make a guiness chocolate cake. put vanilla ice cream on it. best use of beer in a dessert.
	8:18pm other david: wanders back in with tea Julie, I suggest bringing some clothing fit for monsoons too :P catches up on ice cream conversation Damnit, now I've got a longing for an ice cream soda
	8:20pm Julie: This music is great for a stormy, monsoony night. Wish it'd rain already.
	8:21pm listener gary: fig newtons broken up and stirred into Hagen dos chocolate and refrozen is a real summer evening treat.Hard to sip thru a straw tho...
	8:21pm G: Someone here with me suggests gin and limeade pops as "killer". I bet those will be made later this evening, now that the memory's been jogged.
	8:21pm Richard from Venezuela: This sounds great. Maybe you'll be interested Monica. http://murderbydeath.bandcamp.com/album/skeletons-in-the-closet-rarities-demos-and-lo-fi-live
	8:22pm texas scott: g & t s...G!
	8:22pm cheri: julie don't jinx the weather
	8:23pm comments archivist: cheri, don't jinx the comments :-)
	8:25pm monica: hi richard from V! thanks, will check post-show....G, sounds good to me...listener gary, my mouth says thanks, my hips say hell no!... thanks, lady julie... orther david, me too...
	8:25pm david: This is cookin' Monica.
	8:27pm trs: @dale sounds delicious. I wonder if that cake is related to stout gingerbread ?
	8:31pm Doug S.: A dear friend of mine is a Swingle (related to but not one of the singers).
	8:32pm david: two instances of vocalese in one show!
	8:32pm CB1: Ticket was terrific. Is a swingle a swinging single?
	8:33pm Julie: yeah that was great that swingle version!
	8:33pm Steve L: Checking in from Jamestown, home to the new Guinness Book world record for the most people dressed like Lucille Ball gathered in one location at one time: 915.
	8:35pm Sad Young Men: Mo, you're killin us over here!
	8:35pm Julie: @SteveL wow! are there pictures?
	8:35pm G: Jamestown on Lake Chautauqua? My father's mother's dad was co-owner of the Skillman & Ingerson store in Bemus Point 100 years ago.
	8:36pm monica: Steve L! Were you one of them?... CB1, I'll let someone here answer that for you...agree, julie... and yes, david.!
	8:36pm Don (minister of props): Egg cream from St. Marks!
	8:38pm Don (minister of props): Thanks for answering the question who Geo. Jones main squeeze was.
	8:38pm dale: hey steve. i'm originally a silver creek feller. was just in jamestown a few weeks ago. always hit the hartfield flea when i go visitin'. cheers!
	8:38pm monica: cheer up, sad young men!!
	8:43pm Julie: the sad young men need some ice cream!
	8:43pm G: some nude IC, even
	8:43pm sugarwolf: everyone needs ice cream!
	8:44pm Sad Young Men: NO! OMG! Now I understand!
	8:44pm texas scott: the sad young men need some more sad young men
	8:45pm G: the voice of experience
	8:45pm Julie: They need to pick up a box of sad young men at costco.
	8:45pm G: what if their membership lapsed? that's be really sad.
	8:46pm Don (minister of props): @G - what happened to Turkey Hill root beer float ice cream at KF.
	8:46pm Julie: there's nothing sadder than a sad young man crying outside some kind of superstore
	8:47pm dale: WOO! on shepp! which station offered up the paco panties? i miss the quiet storm..."wait a minute mister, a table for two."
	8:47pm texas scott: holy shit...there come the saints!!
	8:48pm other david: Julie - except for a sad young man crying outside a superstore... looking at the pavement where he dropped his icecream. Epic tragedy.
	8:48pm Steve L: Dale, love Hartfield flea market. Just got a selection of pre-war martini shakers and the British vinyl version of Electric Ladyland, which came in two separate sleeves, neither of which had naked ladies on them.
	8:48pm Don (minister of props): What do people in New Orleans do to stay cool in the summer? They come to NYC. Think about it.
	8:49pm Julie: @OD oh man I'm going to cry now. You suppose there is a Scandinavian film about such an event?
	8:49pm G: I ATE IT. now on to gin and lime pops
	8:50pm dale: steve, last time i just bought some jelly from the amish. dandelion and sour cherry - haven't broken into them yet.
	8:51pm Don (minister of props): @ Dale - Disco 92.
	8:52pm other david: Julie - you mean you haven't seen Godards classic "Masculin, Crème glacée "?
	8:52pm Wikipedia: William Robertson Russell Bennett DCM MM, better known as Billy Bennett, (1887 – June 30, 1942) was a British comedian who specialised in parodies of dramatic monologues and was billed as almost a gentleman. He was a big influence on Spike Milligan.

	7:28pm Julie: @Tom you got that right. I stepped out for air, went right back in. Sun going down, still too muggy.
	7:29pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I agree Julie !!! some are turning their noses up maybe at it but I think it's pretty cool !!
	7:29pm Donna Summer: EFD Disco Show: Luv to luv it, baby.

	7:31pm Tir Chonaill Abu: Ah I would love to be in the middle of all that humidity and heat in NYC. No only messing know how sticky it can get over there. Hey if you get a chance catch this great radio docs on BBC Radio 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01302s4. Make sure you listen the whole way through
	7:32pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I was born in 1960 in those days me long hair , Led Zep t shirt would not admit to actually liking some of those early Disco songs they were good !!.. up until around 1978 ( Ie .. Rod " do youthink I'm sexy" they BLAHHH!!!
	7:32pm monica: hi julie and donna. i know efd will serve up nice and spicy with his disco special this wednesday - be sure to listen! hi there, tir - thanks for that link! heard about this.
	7:33pm Julie: I LIKE Last Dance. But then I was little when that stuff was going on.
	7:34pm Julie: oh and HI Butter!
	7:34pm Don (minister of props): Tom / Julie - I'm down with roller disco, funk disco, r&b disco, but don't wanna hear 'Disco (bad singles dance night) Inferno'
	7:35pm Julie: I think if you have enough cocaine all disco is good
	7:35pm cheri: good evening julie,,,last night i forgot to ask you what do you think of jerry lewis being fired from his own telethon??
	7:35pm Good Taste: @Don: Agreed. Burn that muthah down!
	7:36pm Julie: @cheri I think it stinks that's what I think. And few would disagree.
	7:36pm Jerry L.: After three repeats, even I am bored with myself.
	7:36pm trs: Humidity is the mud of the air. Here's to cool clean sheets
	7:36pm Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ): I do kind of agree with what George Clinton once said, "Disco is like making love with just one stroke ..'' it kinda killed the really hard corre/ get down in your face funk of the early 70's ..
	7:39pm Julie: ah that reminds me! Gotta put sheets in the dryer!
	7:39pm T-Zero: @Monica: Enjoying the show tonight. Looking forward to hearing what Funk does on Wednesday. (Born in 1956 so the flashbacks should be a hoot.) @Everyone discussing the weather... Yeppers and yeppers. For the first time in weeks it's only 71 one here, but the rain and humidity anything touching is like its stuck with duct tape.
	7:40pm seang: you're the best Monica!
	7:41pm Ben: Staying cool by tuneing to wfmu
	7:41pm cheri: monica & julie i'm not going to watch the telethon anymore,,,
	7:41pm dale: evenin' mo and kids. massive thunderstorms just ripped through the hudson valley and temp dropped. nice and refreshing outside verus the swampy air earlier in the day. i thought fer sure you were gonna hit us with some real everly bros, but another time maybe. at least nancy sinatra never covered phil and ray. i hope.
	7:42pm texas scott: fred and i do it the way you and butter do it. it's the only way.
	7:43pm Julie: Keep cool tip: skip dinner go right to ice cream
	7:44pm seang: getting naked helps too
	7:44pm Julie: Keep cool tip: walk around the house in WFMU t-shirt and nothing else
	7:45pm Julie: nudity + ice cream, what could go wrong?
	7:45pm Don (minister of props): I shmye next to the water (sprinkler, beach). Thanks God for what Bambaataa did bridging the whole dance music thing
	7:45pm seang: totally
	7:46pm Ice Cream: @Julie: I totally could, nod nod wink wink
	7:46pm Don (minister of props): Of course, you too Ms. M.
	7:47pm cheri: ohhh julie speaking of ice cream which brand do you like better? i love ben & jerrys much better!!!
	7:47pm Julie: cheri, please stop interviewing me, okay?
	7:49pm G: Turkey Hill isn't the greatest, but it's $1.67 for a full pint around here right now. Anyone notice that Haagen D. went down to 14 oz (not a 16 oz legit pint) by making the hollow area underneath the bottom bigger. Da sneaky bastids.
	7:49pm monica: be, always a sure shot solution...butter says hello right back, julie... good taste, don't let it keep you from havin' a good time!... thanks, trs - and yes!..well hey there, jerry ol.l!! ...hola, dale - good suggestion re: evs...
	7:49pm interviewer: piss off,cheri
	7:50pm Julie: I haven't had HD in so long..it's the most fattening thing ever :/
	7:50pm Listener Schned: Totally agree with hooking up A/C with the fan, you can actually switch back/forth; totally agree with going direct to ice cream/swanning about in the WFMU t-shirt, too- Regards from Sweatchester !!!
	7:50pm channeling Nardwuar: cheri is too annoying for my taste
	7:51pm Julie: "swanning about," I like that phrase
	7:51pm listener gary: Ivie Anderson: you can watch her tear it up in Day at the Races!!! Hey , dj Monica!!
	7:52pm other david: It has become autumnal and cold already here in Ireland, about 50F. Almost reaching for a jumper! Think I'll make some tea actually, that'll do it. Loving the tunes Monica, very very chilled out :)
	7:52pm programmer: eclectic sophisticated easy listening always works for a sunday night.
	7:54pm Julie: that was GREAT
	7:54pm texas scott: @other david...sounds like heaven. i shall dream of Ireland tonight.
	7:54pm Julie: @OD I'm coming over, I'll bring a sweater
	7:54pm Julie: Keep Cool Tip: Be Irish
	7:56pm G: Turkey Hill is "light", 400-500 calories a pint. HD is like 1200-1300 cals even at 14 rather than 16 oz. One must maintain one's girlish figure, I always say. Turkey Hill is not as good, but it is ice cream and gets me past that jonz.
	7:57pm sugarwolf: Ooo, looking forward to the EFD Disco Party. I was too busy being born and being a baby to listen to disco the first time around.
	7:58pm Doug S.: Oh my do I love Ivie Anderson! Oh my do I love Sunday evenings with Monica!
	7:59pm seang: that Network Awesome site is blowing my mind
	8:00pm david: My keep cool tip is those old-fashioned popsicles wrapped in plastic, like these: http://bit.ly/rkJ4H1 Kind of goes with the high fructose corn syrup theme of last week's sodas and Dallas BBQ frozen margaritas...
	8:00pm monica: Hi G, ice cream prices are CRAZY these days - that said, love Haag Daazs Pralines & Cream.... Listener Schned, a cool breeze to you, sir...Hi Listerner Gary - I know she's your type... other david, lovely to hear from a cuz in the old sod. thanks for tuning in... sugarwolf - i think we've got a group date going for EFD this week!...Doug S.!! Always too cool....
	8:03pm Julie: can you make popsicles out of captain morgan and coke?
	8:03pm Julie: I wonder if they still have those plastic things where you could make your own popsicles
	8:05pm david: @Julie we have some of those in a corner of a cabinet of our house... remnant of some former roommate... but they look really old school...
	8:05pm G: @Monica: Yeah, 4.49 for 14 oz of HD. WTF. I remember premium ice cream around 1990 being under 2 bucks. During the last 20 years the overall inflation rate has not been a total of 150% (from 2.00 to over 4.50 a pint). General inflation has been 3% or so a year, not 7%+ a year for 20 years. "They" just know they have some of us hooked, and price HD accordingly.
	8:06pm Julie: snacks? Near the station? Where?!
	8:07pm texas scott: they do still make them,Julie alcohol is hard to freeze, tho thanks for the cool,Mo
	8:07pm Julie: They were great! the little built in "stick" on the top.
	8:08pm G: They have freezable pops for 99 cents per package of 10 at Key Food. In my area of Brooklyn, I see the Jewish Orthodox moms and the Jamaican moms all stocking up on them. Let's all hold hands and sing kumbayah! :-)
	8:09pm CB1: @ panties - Didn't MM do that in 7 Year Itch?
	8:09pm Julie: @Tex, even with coke around it though? I bet it's hot as hell down there in TX. Summer time I am so glad I moved north!
	8:10pm david: Yeah, I have a distinct madeleine-like memory of orange juice on a plastic stick... My mom was a Tupperware lady and they were all over that.
	8:11pm dale: love the yvonne decarlo tale. i have her album 'yvonne decarlo sings', and sadly unremarkable. no julie london that miss wye-von.
	8:11pm trs: I did beercicles last year. Not the best idea. Doing diy ice cream sandwiches this year. Italian wafer cookies and a few spoons of ice-cream, mm.
	8:11pm Julie: i Want the lily munster dress. Best dress EVER
	8:12pm Julie: Keep Cool Tip: Flapping cockatiel at arm's length
	8:12pm david: @G Those must be exactly the ones I get. Except I get the 3 dozen size for 2.99
	8:13pm Julie: I'd like to know how to make my own slurpees! Now that would be a nice treat in this weather.
	8:14pm G: @david: Different stores price them differently, probably depending on what the local area will tolerate The exact same pack of 10 freezable pops that is 99 cents at Key Food in Central Brooklyn is 1.99 at KF in Staten Island.
	8:14pm david: Who was talking about song titles the same as band names, and possibly album names?
	8:16pm cheri: monica,,,julie i want the princess fiona gown,, cause i that would be cool!!!
	8:17pm dale: trs - make a guiness chocolate cake. put vanilla ice cream on it. best use of beer in a dessert.
	8:18pm other david: wanders back in with tea Julie, I suggest bringing some clothing fit for monsoons too :P catches up on ice cream conversation Damnit, now I've got a longing for an ice cream soda
	8:20pm Julie: This music is great for a stormy, monsoony night. Wish it'd rain already.
	8:21pm listener gary: fig newtons broken up and stirred into Hagen dos chocolate and refrozen is a real summer evening treat.Hard to sip thru a straw tho...
	8:21pm G: Someone here with me suggests gin and limeade pops as "killer". I bet those will be made later this evening, now that the memory's been jogged.
	8:21pm Richard from Venezuela: This sounds great. Maybe you'll be interested Monica. http://murderbydeath.bandcamp.com/album/skeletons-in-the-closet-rarities-demos-and-lo-fi-live
	8:22pm texas scott: g & t s...G!
	8:22pm cheri: julie don't jinx the weather
	8:23pm comments archivist: cheri, don't jinx the comments :-)
	8:25pm monica: hi richard from V! thanks, will check post-show....G, sounds good to me...listener gary, my mouth says thanks, my hips say hell no!... thanks, lady julie... orther david, me too...
	8:25pm david: This is cookin' Monica.
	8:27pm trs: @dale sounds delicious. I wonder if that cake is related to stout gingerbread ?
	8:31pm Doug S.: A dear friend of mine is a Swingle (related to but not one of the singers).
	8:32pm david: two instances of vocalese in one show!
	8:32pm CB1: Ticket was terrific. Is a swingle a swinging single?
	8:33pm Julie: yeah that was great that swingle version!
	8:33pm Steve L: Checking in from Jamestown, home to the new Guinness Book world record for the most people dressed like Lucille Ball gathered in one location at one time: 915.
	8:35pm Sad Young Men: Mo, you're killin us over here!
	8:35pm Julie: @SteveL wow! are there pictures?
	8:35pm G: Jamestown on Lake Chautauqua? My father's mother's dad was co-owner of the Skillman & Ingerson store in Bemus Point 100 years ago.
	8:36pm monica: Steve L! Were you one of them?... CB1, I'll let someone here answer that for you...agree, julie... and yes, david.!
	8:36pm Don (minister of props): Egg cream from St. Marks!
	8:38pm Don (minister of props): Thanks for answering the question who Geo. Jones main squeeze was.
	8:38pm dale: hey steve. i'm originally a silver creek feller. was just in jamestown a few weeks ago. always hit the hartfield flea when i go visitin'. cheers!
	8:38pm monica: cheer up, sad young men!!
	8:43pm Julie: the sad young men need some ice cream!

	8:45pm G: what if their membership lapsed? that's be really sad.
	8:46pm Don (minister of props): @G - what happened to Turkey Hill root beer float ice cream at KF.
	8:46pm Julie: there's nothing sadder than a sad young man crying outside some kind of superstore
	8:47pm dale: WOO! on shepp! which station offered up the paco panties? i miss the quiet storm..."wait a minute mister, a table for two."
	8:47pm texas scott: holy shit...there come the saints!!
	8:48pm other david: Julie - except for a sad young man crying outside a superstore... looking at the pavement where he dropped his icecream. Epic tragedy.
	8:48pm Steve L: Dale, love Hartfield flea market. Just got a selection of pre-war martini shakers and the British vinyl version of Electric Ladyland, which came in two separate sleeves, neither of which had naked ladies on them.
	8:48pm Don (minister of props): What do people in New Orleans do to stay cool in the summer? They come to NYC. Think about it.
	8:49pm Julie: @OD oh man I'm going to cry now. You suppose there is a Scandinavian film about such an event?
	8:49pm G: I ATE IT. now on to gin and lime pops
	8:50pm dale: steve, last time i just bought some jelly from the amish. dandelion and sour cherry - haven't broken into them yet.
	8:51pm Don (minister of props): @ Dale - Disco 92.
	8:52pm other david: Julie - you mean you haven't seen Godards classic "Masculin, Crème glacée "?
