♥ 9:04am Vivian:

Nice! Hopefully this bodes well for the rest of the morning, started out as shit.

♥ 9:04am Vivian:

@ngh - it is never too early to raise the volume.

♥ 9:04am northguineahills:

and holas all around....!

9:05am pierre:

Eh beh, bonjour Bubbling Chauldron of Rage and friends !

9:05am Cheri Pi:

Hola to all!!!

9:05am FЮFЮ (:

Hey Honey water!

You have a nice, er, avatar!

9:06am Honey Water:

Looking sideways, I'd say you have a very good Pope hat there. Are you in the running, FЮFЮ ( ?

♥ 9:06am Sem Chumbo:

Bonjour à tous.

9:07am AndrewC.:

All MBV, all morning, with Ken.

9:07am pierre:

@ Sem Chumbo : another french ?

9:07am Honey Water:

@FЮFЮ (: It fell off and was in the precise right side up / right direction position to see clearly when I went to open my old beater Cutlass back in the day. I've kept it as a lucky memento. :)

9:07am Rubber:

He likes me! He really likes me!

♥ 9:08am Ken:

Morning all! Maggie. my solo comedy debut is NEXT Monday at the Broadway Comedy Club on 53rd in NYC, 7pm.

♥ 9:08am Dan B From Upstate:

That's a hell of an avatar, Honey Water. Morning, all!

9:08am FЮFЮ (:

pierre!! Your mere presence enriches the comment section!

♥ 9:09am Ken From Hyde Park:

What is this, My Bloody Valentine's Day?

9:09am Honey Water:

Hey, AndrewC! Can I ask where first you heard that "mask a pony" cheese pun? Pretty amazingly, I heard Mark Kermode deliver that bit of wit on the ending podcast portion of his show Friday, which was probably less than an hour after you posted it on Doug's list. Mollusk!

9:09am fred von helsing:

all hail mycobacterium bovis www.acronymfinder.com...

9:10am pat p:

I think this track is my least favorite on the album. But that's because the rest is all so good.

♥ 9:10am northguineahills:

Perfect, Ken FHP...!

9:10am Honey Water:

@Dan B: I knew it would shine against Ken's black background.

9:11am common:

gazing at my shoes.

9:11am FЮFЮ (:

honey water,

Oh yes, the pope's hat. But what I really want is the Popemobile. I bags it people!

9:11am Honey Water:

@ngh: I've got it cranked here!

♥ 9:12am northguineahills:

common beat me to kick (from where I was staring)

9:12am Titus in GA:

No, Ken! more new MBV:) Oh well...

9:12am Detroit Mac:

Does Ramstein have a Valentine's Day song?

♥ 9:13am Ken:

Last GIF was pour tu, Pierre.

9:14am FЮFЮ (:

Hmm...How can we be sure if the above was posted by the real Ken and not fake Ken ?

What if its is comedy about rubber hand stamps ? It's not that I dislike that type of comedy. Just saying.

♥ 9:14am Ken:

Funny you should ask Mac - he does. But if somebody's gonna play it, it WONT BE ME. I dont wanna send Rammstein mixed signals if you catch my meaning.

♥ 9:14am northguineahills:

I'm going to enjoy this while I can, before Ken goes all Kenny G on us.

9:14am AndrewC.:

@HoneyWater, Would like to claim I invented it! But no... Some guy shouted it out in my office a little bit before I posted. Don't know where he heard it...

9:15am Honey Water:

@Ken: If I don't have another chance, hope you break a funnybone next Monday night -- slay 'em!

♥ 9:15am Sem Chumbo:

@Pierre:Mon père était originaire de Normandie, ma mère Cap-Breton ... moitié-moitié, je suppose.

♥ 9:15am Ken:

What time should I go all Kenny G, ngh?

9:15am ?:

I found a gif of Dr Bootygrabber! https://i.chzbgr.com/maxW500/7035723008/hD7FCB4FC/

9:15am Honey Water:

@AndrewC: Wit wafts wickedly quickly in the UK! :)

9:16am pierre:

aww thanks Ken !

♥ 9:17am northguineahills:

Maybe around 10ish, when I start cooking breakfast.

9:17am Honey Water:

@Sem: So you are FЮFЮ ('s campaign manager, or are you also in the Pope race?

♥ 9:18am northguineahills:

The music will still be on, but I'll be in the kitchen.

Ok, that was weird, I was singing YLT when Medicine was on, and then YLT comes on....

9:18am pierre:

@ Sem Chumbo : pas mal du tout ^^

9:19am Honey Water:

@fred: Thanks for that acronym finder -- useful tool.

9:19am FЮFЮ (:

People need to speak in English otherwise I won't eat anymore french fries.

9:19am Detroit Mac:

About "Going Kenny G"... I always thought this was something you couldn't plan. I just happened (beyond anyone's control).

9:20am fred von helsing:

nichevo

♥ 9:21am Ken:

That is actually how it really is, Mac - hey! Why didnt that last URL turn into a link? because it was https?

9:21am Honey Water:

Ochi chornya. ;)

9:21am pierre:

sorry FOFO, it's english from now

9:22am Honey Water:

So do we each get a .gif dedicated to us?

9:22am FЮFЮ (:

Honey Water Athena,

I need your assistance to win the race for the popemobile. I'll libate to you. Milkshakes, if that's possible (i don't drink wine).

9:22am Jack:

Hey!

9:23am fred von helsing:

I faved a song and the star didn't spin.
what alternate broken universe am I in.

9:24am Honey Water:

Sorry FЮFЮ (, I'm not even Catholic, but I'll ask Philo to tweet your candidacy to the outgoing. I'm right he has a Twitter account, si?

9:26am FЮFЮ (:

I was kidding pierre. you can keep talking in your sexy Æælphabeté.

9:27am Honey Water:

And fred can keep writing in Russian.

♥ 9:27am northguineahills:

I've also noticed the lack of spinning stars today (also on John Allen's program)

9:27am fred von helsing:

Ой, сейчас звучат гораздо больше зла.

9:28am Honey Water:

@ngh: Blame it on the approaching asteroid.

9:29am pierre:

no, no, but you're right FOFO, on Ken's comment board I usually don't get half of what's being said, therefore I'm trying to keep it up. It's my little wednesday english work out.

and to me french is only sexy when spoken with an english accent (or any other foreign accent)

9:29am FЮFЮ (:

thank you Athena holy, er, honey water.

p.s. I also know some Russian. Look:

t.A.t.U.

(Or is it T.a.T.u?. Oh, nevermind).

9:29am fred von helsing:

French is only sexy when spoken by a woman with a pulse.

9:30am Titus in GA:

LUUUKKKKKEEEE!

9:30am glenn:

i can say "hello beautiful" in romanian.

9:30am Honey Water:

Ha!

9:31am pierre:

@ fred VH : a pulse ?

9:32am Honey Water:

@glenn: Michael J. Pollard is a contender, indeed, but I still think Stuart Margolin is tops at portraying a loveable human weasel.

9:32am FЮFЮ (:

Perhaps he meant to say "purse". An Yves Saint Laurent kind of purse.

9:33am fred von helsing:

a detectable heartbeat :)

9:33am pierre:

hahaha… fred VH, i was suspecting that.

9:33am fred von helsing:

critics say: it all sux til the last 3 trax

9:34am glenn:

friendship society? who needs it. www.youtube.com...

♥ 9:34am Caryn:

@pierre: Eddie Izzard had a whole routine about that. How the French think French spoken with a foreign accent is sexy, and English people think a lot of accented English is sexy. Hmm...

9:34am fred von helsing:

And holy crap OMFG there's new CLOTHILDE out !!!

9:34am pierre:

the new MBV, and the pope resignation

9:35am Honey Water:

@fred: Even the broad in the Broadcast .gif if she's speaking French?

9:35am common:

Sounds like twin peaks

♥ 9:35am Nick the Bard:

Which third Star Wars movie? The third released or the third in sequence?

9:35am glenn:

my other favourite human weasel actor is kim coates.

9:36am fred von helsing:

Pope Bunga-Bunga !
fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net...

9:36am pierre:

@ Caryn : I think I saw this… some days ago. Yes. Well he is saying the truth.

9:37am Honey Water:

@Caryn: And of course we former colonists think a British accent is sexy.

9:37am fred von helsing:

@hw Why yes bien sûr she is a bad ass cool cat

9:37am FЮFЮ (:

Don't diss the Pope cuz he didn't recorded an album.

♥ 9:37am Caryn:

@HW: oh please, if Simone Signoret came up to you speaking French, you wouldn't let a little murder get in the way. Heck, Simone Signoret saying nothing would be fine.

9:39am thedunkel:

good morning mr. ken , good morning all - what is was that awesome music playing behind you on the most recent mic/dj break

9:39am Honey Water:

Isn't the original of this already sung in a high enough register?

9:39am FЮFЮ (:

Rammstein's accent when he's angry is the sexiests peoples!!

Donaudampfschifffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft!!!!!

♥ 9:39am Ken:

Yes the website does feel extra slow today - im noticing delays and stuff. Might be related to the lack of spinning stars.

♥ 9:40am Caryn:

When I favourites two songs this morning, the first star didn't spin, but the second one did... The one I actually liked more, spun. Man, can the playlists read my mind or something?

♥ 9:40am DCE:

nicely done

9:41am Honey Water:

@Caryn: Def would let it get in the way, esp. as I don't swing Signoret. ;)

9:41am lee:

banana joe, b*tches. mic drop http://www.tani-kazari.com/banana_joe.htm

9:41am glenn:

oh ken, you'll always be our spinning star.

9:42am Foreign Listener K:

Of course the website is slower - today is World Radio Day, and all the electrons are celebrating their freeform freedom

♥ 9:42am Ken:

Nick the Bard - The one with the goddamn ewoks.. which one was that - Empire Strikes Back?

9:42am pierre:

Hey by the way Ken, good luck for that stand up comedy thing !

(i would say "break a leg" but i'm not sure if it's the right expression, and i don't want you to properly break a leg, you seemed to had troubles with snow already, so stay safe…)

9:43am Michael:

Did you say 'colostomy' or 'colonoscopy'---there's a difference, at least if you do them right there is....

♥ 9:43am Ken From Hyde Park:

Which is more likely? The IOC letting in pro wrestlers, or the WWE will sponsor a tournament where they give gold medals to the winners?

9:43am FЮFЮ (:

Ken

The links that are not getting hotlinked are those posted by the non-members of the Friendship society.

♥ 9:44am Caryn:

Oh man, Banana Joe is that one Ewok with the stone hammer!

♥ 9:44am BDR:

NEW UBU! Great album, their best since St Arkansas. Thanks.

♥ 9:45am Caryn:

Spin, Don, spin like your life depends on it!

9:46am Honey Water:

That is Mr. Kelly, right? Love 'im, his dancing and his singing.

♥ 9:47am Ken:

Pierre - Break a Leg is the correct phrase!
FoFo - Aha! Thanks.

♥ 9:48am Ken:

That GIF really hit the Pere Ubu beat perfectly./

9:48am pierre:

great synch between Pere Ubu and it's gif

♥ 9:48am Nick the Bard:

Ken - Nah, that was Return of the Jedi. Then they got two TV movies later on, that gave them really crazy psycho eyes. The second one also had Wilford Brimley in it as a main character.

♥ 9:49am Caryn:

@HW: yep, that's him. Like him, but prefer Donald O'Connor in that movie.

♥ 9:49am Nick the Bard:

24.media.tumblr.com...

9:49am FЮFЮ (:

great synch there, ken, pierre.

9:50am Honey Water:

@Nick: Ewwwok!

9:51am seang:

yes

♥ 9:51am Ken From Hyde Park:

Here comes Honey Boo Boo Bear!

9:51am Honey Water:

Awww, ohhhhh, eeeeee. Cutie!!

♥ 9:51am Jeezy:

What have I got myself (signed) into?

♥ 9:52am Caryn:

Let's face it, all the Ewoks have cold, dead shark eyes. With some of them, the overall cuteness masks that fact, but in the case of the homelier Ewoks, the killer eyes are no longer masked (cf. Nick the Bard's link).

9:52am Detroit Mac:

Ah... yes. This is more like it - music played by Ken that always makes my 23 year old son ask: "What the FUCK are you listening to?"

9:53am fred von helsing:

und now iss ze time venn vee TANZ

♥ 9:53am Caryn:

Is that the polar bear cub that's dead now? Or the living one? I keep confusing my baby polar bears.

9:53am Honey Water:

@Caryn: I agree. Seeing that Nick pic I was thinking: Ew ... OK?

♥ 9:53am βrian:

My good friend protects me: safariextensions.org...

♥ 9:54am Caryn:

@FVH: wait, has Ken's show turned into Sprockets?

9:55am glenn:

in five years that cute little ball of white fur will be an 1100 lb, 10 ft tall weapon of mass seal destruction.

9:56am Honey Water:

Speaking of smiling, Colbert reported on the newest tack of the RNC, which is they need to become the party of smiles. If you're insisting women can "shut that whole thing down" in the case of rape, just say it with a smile now.

♥ 9:56am Ken:

Nick the Bard, thank you for posting that Best in Show pic from last night's awards ceremony.

♥ 9:56am Sugarfly Waterloo:

That, or he'll be large adorable unsynchronized swimmer who is difficult to photograph through glass.

♥ 9:57am Rich in Washington:

I just recently watched American Astronaut again.

9:57am pierre:

polar bears are fierce creature !
Ewoks are plain creepy.

@ Nick The Bard :
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE, this is the french song they released with the movie : www.youtube.com...

9:57am Honey Water:

Ah, but wouldn't Dorner wear just such a shirt for that very reason?

♥ 9:59am Nick the Bard:

Wait a minute, I'm looking at that dog that won, that's not an Ewok, that's Chewbacca's son Lumpy
www.stomptokyo.com...

10:02am sugarwolf:

Singing about Ewoks in French is definitely not sexy.

10:02am sf:

great show, great gifs

♥ 10:03am Caryn:

@glenn: actually, that polar bear died 2 years ago :(
Knew I didn't mix up my baby polar bears!

The gif is from: www.youtube.com...

♥ 10:03am Nick the Bard:

starwars.wikia.com...

♥ 10:03am northguineahills:

Yeah, those Ewok TV movies' Ewoks had eyes that said that something unpleasant is about to happen to you.

10:03am fred von helsing:

I can't believe nobody has done a hairy Steve Tyler "Ewok This Way"

10:03am Honey Water:

Who's that with the great guitar finger action? Ken? Anyone know?

♥ 10:03am G:

I need more coffee. Saw sf's comment and thought it must be noon.

10:04am glenn:

that sucks. polar bears need more love.

♥ 10:04am G:

♥ 10:06am Nick the Bard:

That link I jsut posted has the audio Ken

♥ 10:07am Rich in Washington:

I have a funny feeling, based on what I read in articles about it, that they used the audio of the TV announcement partss from the original Night of the Living Dead.

10:07am Honey Water:

Yay-- a topic!

Well, "february zombie attack mp3" search on Google shows about 29,200,000 results. This will take a while.

♥ 10:08am BSI:

Late to the party. Seems like leaping in front of metro trains is the new hip thing around here. Elevator surfing was for sissies, evidently(?)

No hope in pope!

it'd be some kind of invigorating, that's for sure. btw, that you tube link i posted is for the dachsund united nations, ken

10:10am glenn:

*favourites vanilla fudge*

♥ 10:10am G:

leno makes a lot of monologue jokes at obama's expense. the other late night shows don't (i get a digest of the jokes every day)

♥ 10:10am Caryn:

Aw, Ken thinks I'm perceptive!

10:10am Detroit Mac:

FUDGE! But you are not doing the FMU way... the extended 45 played at 33?

10:10am Foreign Listener K:

This cover, however, is fantastic

♥ 10:10am northguineahills:

I see Ken is taking the timing of my Kenny G comment literally.

Actually don't dislike Vanilla Fudge, just not something I'd seek.

10:11am Honey Water:

Perfect .gif paired with the music.

♥ 10:11am Fuzzy:

Aw, I like Vanilla Fudge -- this 45 edit is a trainwreck though.

♥ 10:12am G:

Just remember, no Vanilla Fudge, no Yes. (They started out doing vastly expanded through-the-meatgrinder re-arrangements of well known songs)

♥ 10:12am βrian:

A good train wreck or a bad train wreck?

10:12am Listener Okasa:

Hey, what happened to the Cool Hand Luke cover on the playlist? Or did I dream that?

♥ 10:12am Jeezy:

My little guy and I came to an agreement and proceeded to go through some mighty purging of our respective vinyl/Lego collections. The Vanilla Fudge album with this on it was one of the casualties.

♥ 10:12am tim from champaign:

Obama has a little funny bone, He threw out a zinger last night about how much congress people love to cut ribbons.

10:12am ExPat:

Here is a better audio of the zombie alert...

10:13am Foreign Listener K:

I believe this is a link to a live - and very psychedlic version of the Vanilla Fudge cover - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYZY0N8Ca5k

♥ 10:14am Fuzzy:

@Brian: bad...listen to the full-length album version and you'll know what I'm talking about. Horrible editing on the single.

♥ 10:16am Ken From Hyde Park:

Ken - The Petra Haden title in the playlist says "Coll." Not "Cool."

♥ 10:16am Ken:

Thank You Nick the Bard!

10:16am ~L:

What does a 503 code on the free music archive mean, besides that i can't see the stuff i wanted?

♥ 10:17am Ken:

Thank you too, Expat!

10:17am FЮFЮ (:

503 error is due to server maintenance or server overloading.

10:18am Lewis:

ya gotta love the whistling...

♥ 10:18am northguineahills:

Yeah, I remember the the misspelled Cool Hand Luke theme song as well.

♥ 10:18am Ken:

Thank you KFHP - That is the actual title of the movie. Coll Hand Luke. The poster for the movie had a typo so they just went with it, but I personally prefer accuracy.

♥ 10:19am Rich in Washington:

Was funny last night; saw Ted Nugent seated right next to Portland OR musician Thomas Lauderdale. I can't imagine an odder couple.

♥ 10:20am Ken From Hyde Park:

Ken - Gotcha!

10:23am FЮFЮ (:

So I'm reading the FCC issued a nationwide emergency alert to all Emergency Alert Systems to wise up.

♥ 10:24am Caryn:

That zombie alert video just makes me want to get some pancakes.

10:25am glenn:

the shoes are supposed to mean there's a crackhouse there, but since every cop in the world knows it, it seems a titch farfetched.

10:26am FЮFЮ (:

Ken,

User ~L reported the 503 on the Free Music Archive.

But Let me check too..

♥ 10:26am Rich in Washington:

I think the crack rumor persists because of paranoid oldsters who repeat it endlessly. And Fox News.

10:27am pierre:

thanks Nick The Bard.

the crackhouse theory might be it then, but yeah, it would really surprise me if they were actually one, because the thread is just in front a bar/tabacconist…

10:28am glenn:

well yeah. the fox news audience ARE paranoid oldsters.

10:28am ~L:

The sound is better one the video in this article.

Speaking of Ewoks and dogs: www.thepoke.co.uk...

Out of respect for Ken, I won't post the Ewok kitten pics (but if those are your thing, they're easy enough to google).

♥ 10:31am Ken:

OK thanks, sigh... FMA is still having problems.

10:31am Michelle in Green Bay:

And Happy Early Birthday, Ken! Yours is the day before mine, so it's easy for me to remember!

♥ 10:32am tim from champaign:

Ken - oh man, please do not ever play Chrome again. PU, Chrome stinks. I would hate it if I ever heard Chrome again. Oh yeah, please never ever play Hawkwind either. I would really really hate to hear Chrome or Hawkwind.

♥ 10:33am Caryn:

Oh lord: wtfhub.com...

10:34am common:

ah...thank you ken

10:34am Honey Water:

@Caryn: I did some back checking and saw I made the comment about Ken playing/doing the opposite of what a commenter requests back on his 12/19/2012 playlist and 7SD that same day. (but then he don't take no notice of me IAE ;)

♥ 10:35am βrian:

@Michelle from GB: Hola from the isthmus.

I sure hope Ken doesn't play any Jonathan Kane.

10:35am sFrances from VA:

hey all~listening, lurking & as usual loving the show~! (perfect soundtrack for resume hell)

Oh, wow, Ken isn't that your BIRTHDAY, too??

♥ 10:36am Rev. Turnip Druid (ex BSI):

(....................isthmus?)

10:36am ~L:

Thanks for the info on the FMA. When I saw the Zombie alerts yesterday, I ignored them because I thought they were spoilers for the Walking Dead!

♥ 10:37am Ken:

Yes HoneyWater my standup thing happens to fall on my birthday! It would be the greatest birthday present to me if people could come out for it.

10:38am Honey Water:

Aw, wish I lived in the area, Philo and I surely would.

10:38am Michelle in Green Bay:

Hello, βrian of the Isthmus! :)

♥ 10:39am Caryn:

@HW: yeah, I suspect a number of the FS members have been "perceptive". After all, it's an easy pattern to notice. I seem to remember talk about it last summer, too.

10:42am Honey Water:

It was in the Little Drummer Boy overplay context on 12/19, but yeah, I noticed this tendency from many DJs in general a while ago -- just not brave enough to say it outright except as Honey. ;)

10:44am Bad Ronald:

Love the Beatles VI gif!

10:45am FЮFЮ (:

Peoples,

Make sure you'll sing Ken a new Happy Birthday song. There are now plenty to choose from. My favourite one is one that last like 10 secs. I forgot the name of the artist though.

P.s. Honey Water, you should also record your version too \o/

10:46am Green Mountain Man Mark:

is that guy failing to stick his finger in that outlet?

10:47am jdelz:

That's pretty much how I dance.

♥ 10:47am Caryn:

@glenn: just to make you feel better about the dead bear, here's some childhood footage of the bear's one-time suggested mate (who is now all grown up and living comfortably in France): www.youtube.com...

10:48am Green Mountain Man Mark:

I used to know a guy who was an electrician and always hung over real bad every day. He would grab a live wire for a few seconds as a hang over cure.

10:48am ~L:

Oh, this looks good!

All chrome at once, please.
'preesh, dude.

♥ 10:50am tim from champaign:

Woohoo, reverse psychology worked again! I tricked Ken into playing Chrome again.

♥ 10:50am rsj:

his best lyircs though that tune, the mash potato song is good too

10:50am FЮFЮ (:

Yeah, CHROME SUX!!!!

That's why I prefer to use Internet Explorer.

♥ 10:51am Vivian:

Oh love this EB message!!

10:51am Honey Water:

@FЮFЮ (: Merci! But shhhh, you're spoil my surprise for Ken. :)

10:52am Michael:

... And Jerry Garcia died of_ quitting_ heroin---a dysfunctional modus vivendi can be better than none at all.

♥ 10:52am Ken From Hyde Park:

Somewhere, supposedly, someone heard the zombie apocalypse broadcast just now and is in panic mode.

10:52am A Civil Authority in Your Area:

The zombies are just up the road now. Godspeed.

10:53am Honey Water:

@glenn: The two-headed turtle video on the right side of your link might interest Caryn, too.

10:53am thedunkel:

YES ZEBRA TRUCKS!

10:54am Yair Yona:

KEN! hi

10:54am Michelle in Green Bay:

Ken will be playing my song... ;-)

♥ 10:55am Skirkie:

I hope there were hard hats.

♥ 10:55am Caryn:

@HW: oh yeah, I've checked that out already. You know my tastes :)

♥ 10:55am Ke:

Yair Yona, my BOHA friend. Welcome!

10:56am FЮFЮ (:

By the way,

You know which other accent is sexy ass hell ? Yes? How did you know? Honey Water singing in Spanish!! <3

10:56am Yair Yona:

Mid-Eighties/Old Rottenhat is terribly unappreciated album

♥ 10:57am Caryn:

First meal of the day: Caesar salad (out of a bag)

10:58am Bippy the Hippy:

What happened to the birthday song contest? Was it abandoned?

10:58am dw:

Good Smashternoon!

10:59am Honey Water:

@FЮFЮ (: Also, the only way I'd record that b-day song again is with a children's chorus. Don't happen to have one handy however. :/

♥ 10:59am Ken:

No Bippy, the winners were chosen, but the FMA site is down right now so you cant go check. Bigger announcements next week.

11:01am Vicki:

did your cat throw up on my record?

11:01am Honey Water:

FЮFЮ (: Gracias! But can only be because you don't know Spanish al that well.
Delayed getting back because I just had to go outside. We're getting a big snow all of a sudden -- huge fluffy flakes!

♥ 11:01am Nardo:

The Zombie Apocalypse happened some time ago. Where do you think reality television came from?

11:01am seang:

a carl stalling tape

11:02am FЮFЮ (:

Honey Water,

If you can have them, make them I say! Start the making baby machine!!1

11:02am Honey Water:

@Nardo: Great point.

11:02am John McCabe:

11:02am ~L:

Ken, Another error: The map, directions for the stand up show, on FB, display the east side not the west side address on 53rd.

♥ 11:02am Caryn:

The FMA is smartly delaying the announcement until next week, when the Pope news have died down a little. Because these two news items clearly have the same demographic.

♥ 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park:

Hello, Sweden!

♥ 11:03am Rev. Turnip Druid (ex BSI):

Vote Cupcake Dog for Pope in 2013.

11:04am Jennique:

@Green Mountain Man - my stepbrother used to work construction and said he would sit and idle in the bulldozer to shake the hangover out.

♥ 11:04am Webhamster Henry:

For a second I thought this was a japanese cover of the Rutles "Cheese & Onions". So, could you play a Japanese cover of "Cheese and Oniones"?

♥ 11:04am Ken:

Thanks L! I will get that fixed... the comedy club is on 53rd bwteen 8th and 9th ave.

11:04am FЮFЮ (:

honey water

I not only know Spanish very well, but also the context behind your songs as well! Sí!

11:05am John McCabe:

first time posting with the profile. looks like no more math with my music

♥ 11:05am Ken:

Vicki! The CDR went bad! It was doing that on all 3 players! Waaaa

11:05am glenn:

then there's the cat adopts rabbit vid, also on the same page. i guess nobody wants to adopt the poor little two headed turtle.

11:07am Honey Water:

@FЮFЮ (: My fondest hope is only to be big in Japan. ;)

11:07am Detroit Mac:

Everybody - wave your Hello Kitty cell phones in the air!

11:08am Honey Water:

@glenn: TY for that baby bear vid. Smiling wide.

♥ 11:09am Caryn:

@glenn: that turtle doesn't need to get adopted. Its owners are hanging on to him. Even if just for the money they're hoping to make selling footage of it to tv stations. (Coming soon to an end-of-news "lighter side of the news" segment near you!)

11:10am glenn:

caryn gets the thanks.

11:10am pierre:

I've heard about people who are use to put bread in toilet, do you know there is a very gross reason for that ? (my boss told me that…)

♥ 11:12am Caryn:

Ken, dziękuję for the Bajm!

11:12am Bad Ronald:

Wow, that kiss gif is... um, neat.

11:12am Honey Water:

Yikes, creepfest .gif.

11:12am Vicki:

oh no! want another one?

11:13am People Like Us:

btw it sounded quite good

♥ 11:13am Ken:

OK, I put up an antidote (cute) GIF to make up for that supercreepy one.

11:14am FЮFЮ (:

I choose not to know why people put bread on the toilet. I choose not to know why people put bread on the toilet. I choose not to...

11:15am Barry White:

This is simply wonderful. Thank you!

11:15am braveness23:

LOL, what in the hell is this?

11:15am Jennique:

Pierre: I remember kids in school would flush oranges down the toilet just to clog them so we would have a plumbing problem and be sent home.

11:15am Honey Water:

The turtles' indeed the antidote for the uvula-cam.

♥ 11:16am Caryn:

Hah, nice Norwegian pun, Jonas FJELD Band!

11:16am Detroit Mac:

Does anybody else here get a kick out of watching J-POP on Nippon cable?

11:16am seang:

that turtle crash-landing on his back!

11:18am sad:

Holy Crapoly the Jonas Kveld Band's "Berre Kvit" is the sexiest song I've ever heard. Not on itunes/amazon, how do I get a copy of that beaut.

♥ 11:19am Caryn:

The song means "Only White", but "berre" sounds like Barry, so it's half-pun, half translation joke.
And please change the band name, Ken.

11:19am FЮFЮ (:

The Zebra tune alert!

It's time to call Ken! C'mon people I wanna hear your voice! Anyone? Michelle!?

♥ 11:20am Rev. Turnip Druid (ex BSI):

My recipe for Toilet Bread dates back to the Old Country. And by Old Country I mean a huge mason jar of pills and carpet-tacks.

11:20am sFrances from VA:

i love these live remotes! new space=such great news

♥ 11:20am Caryn:

@sad: jonas-fjeld-band.freedownloadmp3.net

11:21am Michelle in Green Bay:

I would, but I think Ken's using it as his touring music.

11:21am dw:

Space is the Place!

11:21am sFrances from VA:

I've met Jello many times going back to 1981 & he's been nothing but super nice....(just sayin')

♥ 11:21am Caryn:

@sad: some old vinyl copies also around, if you'd like that

11:22am Sometimes Jasmine:

Boiler stories, unfolding live...

11:23am glenn:

make sure the guys filling the bins have their whmis certificates, ken.

♥ 11:23am northguineahills:

Yeah, my encounters w/ Jello were amicable as well.

11:26am Green Mountain Man Mark:

a guy I know that was in punk bands in the early 80s in college was eating at a Denny's with Jello after a concert. And he says Jello took his passport and drew a mustache and glasses on his passport picture.

11:26am john:

Thanks for the live report from the demolition, Ken.

11:26am FЮFЮ (:

Thank you michelle. I knew you have the balls to call in. but I guess you are right. this tune is not being used as a signal to call in anymore. Maybe it changed?

11:26am Honey Water:

Oh, right -- this unexpected snowfall has me turned around obviously. TY, CARYN, for the baby bear vid! Glenn, you can gutter helmet then. ;)

11:27am braveness23:

I needed this eird today to temper my otherwise pissy mood. Thanks Ken, you freak of nature

♥ 11:27am Ken:

I guess I was referring to the anti-Jello gossip surrounding his departure from the band.. i have also heard he's a nice guy

11:28am Honey Water:

Wipe that smug look off your face, sloth.

♥ 11:28am Ken From Hyde Park:

About 20 years ago, some facilities guys came by our office area and tested the toilets by dropping marshmallows into the bowl. That was their story, anyway.

11:29am Green Mountain Man Mark:

You cook sloths just like you do turtles and snails. Slow.

♥ 11:29am Caryn:

The sloth has inspired me to switch to his kind. I'm blaming the stoner smile. Can't say no to that.
@HW: heh, no worries :)

11:30am FЮFЮ (:

I iz too has anecdote!

I once ate a burrito with the singer of Brujeria. He told me they recorded that song "Raping death children" to make the kids buy the CD twice (because their mom's would always throw away their first CD, and they'll hide the second after lesson learned).

11:30am braveness23:

I love Track 8

♥ 11:31am Rev. Turnip Druid (ex BSI):

Agreed, b23: Now voting Track 8 for Pope.
Cupcake Dog can be Vice Pope.

11:31am Honey Water:

Aww, baby sloths.

11:31am Bad Ronald:

There is no toilet prank the rivals that of Keith Moon: www.neatorama.com...

11:31am Toto:

yesterday it was french presses, today it's marshmallows and oranges. show a guy some respect, couldya?

11:32am glenn:

otters! i demand otters.

11:33am Vicki:

Wow! Ennio Morricone

♥ 11:33am Caryn:

Petra! You devil you! Loving this!

11:33am Honey Water:

It just occurred to me: Tonight's 7SD premise is for listeners to come up with topical jokes, purportedly for the "Jay Leno" show. But then Ken has his standup debut on Monday ... hmm ... coincidence?

11:33am People Like Us:

is this new by Petra Haden?

11:33am Michelle in Green Bay:

Time to go teach. Happy Wednesday, friends!

♥ 11:34am northguineahills:

pretty tight interpretation.

11:35am seang:

Thanks for that Bad Ronald!!

11:35am FЮFЮ (:

Vicki!!
I hope you had a good time in the Transmediale! I also hope I'll see you guys in the XOYO!

11:36am pierre:

ok, let's just say that (but I might be wrong here) bread in the toilet is not always for clogging those.

11:37am Detroit Mac:

Ken; (or anybody care to comment) Have you heard the new Petra Haden Goes to the Movies release?

♥ 11:37am Ken:

Yes Vicki =- new pETRA

♥ 11:37am Caryn:

@glenn: how about a pic of "the world's most important otter", Toola, and one of her adopted pups: media.npr.org...

Clint's nod is often in time with this ditty.

That's one happy turtle! Or, you know, one that's noticed a tasty morsel. Which would make it happy, I guess.

♥ 11:41am BDR:

Looking forward to the gif for the Roxy song.

♥ 11:41am tim from champaign:

Speaking of Jello Biafra, The Melvins are coming out with a covers record where they and Jello B cover this Roxy song.

11:42am Honey Water:

@Caryn: Doesn't it appear to have a tooth or teeth though?

♥ 11:42am Ken:

Yes Mac, funny you should mention the new Petra Haden CD! I have played it twice so far, this morning on my radio programme. Which can be heard at wfmu.org

11:42am glenn:

huh. that otter could almost be an eewok.

♥ 11:44am Caryn:

@HW: I don't think so, but heck, I'm half-blind anyway.

♥ 11:46am northguineahills:

I'm trying to leave, and you put Maggot Brain on...... Ken!!!

11:47am Detroit Mac:

I guess this was the moment I was hoovering up the dining room...

Eddie Hazel was, is, and always will be that Dude.

11:47am Briania:

In every dream brain a maggot.

Aw, Ken, you framed it just above the butt crack.

11:48am Marco:

Where's my water?

♥ 11:49am Mike East:

I'm in the market for a new vacuum. Is Hoover still the premier name in vacuum cleaners? I need something that won't break after 3 months.

11:49am FЮFЮ (:

The smoker diatribe that Ken once played with this song along had the opposite effect. I shall smoke now.

♥ 11:50am Michael:

That studio is great Ken - congrats to you and WFMU!

♥ 11:50am Sugarfly Waterloo:

how big is your home Mike?

♥ 11:50am Ken:

Dont forget, if you're in the NY area, my standup comedy thing on my birthday is next Monday night at 7pm at the Broadway Comedy Club, 318 West 53rd Street: broadwaycomedyclub.com

11:51am Honey Water:

@Mike: The Dyson pet 'cuum is pretty damn fine. Better if you can buy it at 0% interest over a 2-year period as we did (HH Gregg).

11:52am glenn:

YES

11:52am Snark Bomb:

Ken: Using your show to promote your off-WFMU commercial activities again, are you?

11:52am Derwood:

Hoover has no major reliability issues, though, aesthetically they are lacking. I'd lean towards a Kirby and never look back. The suction-power is unparalled and the e-z out bag detach easily, efficiently.

11:52am Honey Water:

Ken, this has been a super show today, by cracky!

Bye, everyone, and Happy Valentine's Day to those I won't run into tomorrow!

♥ 11:52am Mike East:

very small, sugarfly.
payment plan, eh, Honey Water? hmmm.

♥ 11:52am Caryn:

@Ken: is next Wednesday's show going to be the official birthday show?

♥ 11:53am Ken:

Snark bomb, nice try but it's not a commercial activity, as Ive never done it before and Im not getting paid and have no plans on getting paid for it in the future. I know who you really are, by the way.

♥ 11:53am Michael:

Mike - we got a Sears vac when we moved into our new house 12 years ago. Still going.

♥ 11:54am Sugarfly Waterloo:

I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and I find my cheap-ass Bissel Buttler does the trick. It's bagless and you just need to clean the filters out once every blue moon.

11:54am Snark Bomb:

Just busting your beeaaans.

11:54am Joe's Cowper's Gland:

I am Joe's cowper's gland.

11:54am Pope Minchin:

Great show & Happy Birthday KEN... good luck with your comedic debut. Consider setting up a feed for all of the far away fans who want to "be there." Hell, you've done it in a rowboat and a flying lawn chair.

♥ 11:55am Mike East:

thanks derwood.
We've been buying crappy $100 vacuums from target, and then returning them months later without a receipt when they crap out. I feel like we may only be able to do this a few more times before they get wise.

11:55am FЮFЮ (:

I meant to say that every time I hear this song in its original I hear the smoke diatribe even and an urgent need to smoke.

11:55am People Like Us:

you cannot bust Ken the Rubber Hand Stamp user, he has a hektograph

I have such a small apartment and am so sick and tired to vacuum bags, I've decided to get a reloadable stand-up vacuum/dust buster combo for my new vacuum. Cheap, small, hassle-free.

fascinating vacuum cleaner thread btw

11:56am paula pc:

11:57am Derwood:

Those Target vacs struggle to pick up even a human hair, they are so exasperating. Disregarding nature, in a moment of rage, I threw one in a ditch once, cursing all the while. I would say those Target vacs suck, except they don't! I was reduced to picking up visible detritus on the rug by hand, settling for a cosmetic clean, until I found someone willing to move in with me and buy a proper vacuum.

11:57am Detroit Mac:

ie... hoovering... you have choice between getting something that doesn't work very well or getting something that does, and destroys your rugs.

♥ 11:58am Michael:

Get a vacuum in your head.

11:58am FЮFЮ (:

Thanks Ken, fantasmatantic program!

Good luck with your stand up comedy act and don't hesitate to break the legs of the audience if they don't applaud or laugh with you!

And have a happy happy birthday!

See y'all peoples next week if the Lord in his high cloud permits it.

♥ 11:58am Ken:

Thanks and bye everybody! Duane made it through the Zombie protest at the Ecuadorean Embassy and he's no worse for wear.

11:59am Derwood:

My old Dutch landlady put snow on her rugs and then broomed them off. Worked like a charm. She also wore wooden shoes and was obsessed with Barry Hay of Golden Earring. But then, who isn't!?

Hey Ken - the new studio is lookin' good! Can't wait to see the finished product!!
