	👻 3:02pm rrg: Vas-y!
	3:02pm Caryn: Aw, Richie... RIP.
	3:03pm Mike East: guys - I love Rice and Beans. They are my favorite food. That is all.
	3:04pm glenn: nothing says earnest like a turtleneck.
	3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Richie Havens used unconventional 'open' tuning, I believe - & fingering; like Hendrix he fingered w/ his long thumb over the neck of the guitar - which is pretty uncommon...
	3:05pm Michael: Turtleneck with chain especially.
	3:07pm northguineahills: YLT on Irwin? Okay, Mike just made me hungry (looks in cabinet, where the hell are my beans and rice!, need to hit the store).
	3:07pm glenn: open e if i remember rightly.
	3:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he combined significant Power on acoustic guitar w/ genuine Tenderness as a balladeer - w/ both mighty Vocals & affecting Poetry as a Writer...
	👻 3:12pm rrg: The piano in this reminds me of "This Plum Is Too Ripe" from "The Fantasticks". But I'm probably the only one who thinks so.
	3:12pm Mike East: @ngh - go get em! I've got a bit left here, but I'm about to chomp them up!
	3:16pm glenn: pigeon peas are the go to legume for beans and rice, i say.
	3:19pm Mike East: I'm a black bean man, myself. Anyone know how to make vegetarian duck?
	3:21pm Caryn: @Mike: I know how to make A vegetarian duck. Throw a ham hock at his head. Pa-dum-pum
	3:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Black Beans are what Oats eat when they need Fiber. ...They say eat like the poorest people on Earth eat - just eat more of it...
	3:22pm northguineahills: I oscillate b/tn black & pinto beans myself.
	3:22pm Mike East: @Caryn - I was hoping someone would jump on that. You knocked it outta the park. but seriously...vegetarian duck is delicious.
	3:24pm glenn: i know how to turn a soul singer into a duck.
	3:24pm Mike East: just got an inquiry from Wadada Leo Smith
	3:25pm Matt from Springfield: I feel like a Haven-less hippie! Freedom, Irwin and everyone! FREEDOM!!!
	3:26pm I X Key!: well then fffeeeeeeeeeeeecccccccccccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
	3:29pm Caryn: I kinda love "Freedom". Not special as a song, but as a made-up song and as a performance, awesome.
	3:30pm common: Great!
	3:31pm Thelma Blitz: "Indian Rope Man "(hemp= Ganja) is the source of Bob Marley's "African Herbsman" a much better song imho. ("African Herbsman, seize the time, I'm taking illusion from the edge of my mind" Marley's lyric.
	3:37pm I X Key!: sometimes i am only reading the chat &c ! (o: !
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think of in some Rockumentary - prob. TimeLife's 'History of Rock'nRoll' in the 'Folk' installment - where Roger McGuinn talks about early days in the Village in the 'basket houses' - where performers passed the basket for their only pay - & how no one wanted to follow Richie Havens because the audience would always give him all the cash...
	3:41pm northguineahills: wait, the ducktails went pop?
	3:41pm northguineahills: sounds almost Dean Warehamy
	3:43pm Carmichael: Hey, it's Richie Havens day! Will you play some of his commercial voice-overs, Irwin?
	3:46pm Irwin: @Carm: I have that great commercial Richie did for SelectQuote.com in which he delivered both voices. Remember that? Ossim!
	3:46pm Droll: [struck dumb by Xenia Rubinos]
	3:47pm common: who's playin' drums on this?
	3:48pm Irwin: @Droll: that track is typical of the whole album. Recommended.
	3:49pm Irwin: @com: Marco Buccelli. Don't know the name.
	3:51pm common: Thanks, Irwin!
	3:53pm Matt from Springfield: Now I wish Richie had done a whole album of radio commercials, on solo acoustic.
	3:53pm Woo: The Beatles as Klaatu. Prove it's not.
	3:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I've heard about Klaatu - everyone thot an album was The Beatles? ...But I was sure this was Sesame Street/Muppets!...
	3:54pm Carmichael: Don't know that one, Irwin. But he did the Folgers coffee thing, cotton (the fabric of our lives), and an Amtrak ad. I'm sure there must be more.
	3:54pm ChrisB.: Klaatu. What kidders.
	3:55pm Caryn: Seriously, I thought this was a Sesame Street track! Like Oscar the Grouch or something. WTF, Klaatu?
	3:56pm Droll: The best part of wakin' up, is we shop, you save in your cup! I loved that ad!
	👻 3:59pm rrg: "You're being condescending. That means to talk down to."
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'd explain it to you, but I don't have any crayons...
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Whoa, really? I've heard all those! No clue it was Richie! Many have done the Folgers jingle, but I know which one you're referring to.
	4:01pm Matt from Springfield: I wouldn't BE so condescending, if everyone else wasn't so STUPID!! Now, where did I leave my crayons...
	👻 4:02pm rrg: I think this is the first time I've heard The Roches on Irwin's show.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Einstein (paraphrase): Things shouldn't be any more complicated than they need to be - but they shouldn't be any simpler than they really are...
	👻 4:04pm rrg: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
	4:04pm Laura L: I think it's also the first time I've heard a song about a coat on Irwin's show.
	4:05pm Irwin: @rrg: lots of prior airings, esp. before online PLs.
	👻 4:05pm rrg: Not so, LL. He's played songs about that Famous Blue Raincoat.
	4:06pm Irwin: Laura, your profile photo is the exact same color as the playlist background.
	4:06pm Laura L: I stand corrected! But actually, I am seated. So I sit corrected.
	4:07pm Irwin: @rrg & LL: Does My Morning Jacket count?
	👻 4:07pm rrg: I used to like The Roches a lot. I became disenchanted. Not sure why. I don't like the Three Stooges anymore either. But I'll revisit. I have all their albums.
	👻 4:08pm rrg: Not the Stooges' albums...oh, you know what I mean.
	4:08pm Matt from Springfield: "No plurality, without necessity". @Irwin: Now for that to count, Laura would have to be logged in to the FS, with an avatar the exact same solid color as the playlist. In the early weeks of the FS, some commenters were trying to do just that.
	👻 4:09pm rrg: I've seen them perform this in concert a lot. It was really long. Just like now. But it's fine! I like it. Really.
	4:09pm Droll: My Morning Jacket is not a song, only a band name, so no points. This song is long enough for me crank up The Answer Machine again...
	👻 4:10pm rrg: Yes, My Morning Jacket counts. Are you trying to make me do a playlist search for Irwin-played coat and jacket songs? It won't work!
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some Artists I max out on - prob. possible w/ most any. On a thing called 'LaunchCast' (Pandora precursor??) I Rated Dina Washington highly & just burnt out on her, but I'm over it. ...I even used to max out on The Beatles sometimes - but then they Remasterd them four years ago - & I haven't got over that yet!...
	👻 4:11pm rrg: All right, they don't count, then.
	4:11pm Droll: RRG, With stakes this high, I think a bigger fight should ensue. Try again.
	4:11pm Carmichael: But there's never been a song about a windbreaker. I'll bet ya ...
	4:12pm Laura L: Irwin, you can't see me because I don't even know what the FS is. @ rrg, a revisit to The Three Stooges is in order! Get busy!
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if yer gonna have a Manhattan Rumble about it - we'll hold your Coats...
	👻 4:14pm rrg: Laura, FS is the WFMU Friendship Society. The thing you don't belong to yet. So we could be sure it's really you.
	👻 4:16pm rrg: I meant to put a comma there, not a semicolon. And now it's too late! If only there were someone who could correct that.
	4:16pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Spinal Tap, "Break Like The Wind"? @rrg: I have several VHSs worth of Three Stooges if you want to get reacquainted with them.
	4:16pm Listening Out There: Laura, you and I could continue to be FS holdouts: the outsiders' outsiders. Worth considering! :)
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Voter I.D. - esp. usefull for intimidating people into Pledging to the station so any of us can have this...
	4:18pm Droll: [Getting that creepy 1984 Memory Hole feeling again] There will always be the comments referring to RRG's humiliating error even if the error "disappears".
	4:18pm Irwin: @rrg: If only.
	4:19pm fleep: The FS hazing process is admittedly arduous and involves a lot of Tonetta, but it's worth it.
	👻 4:21pm rrg: And no more arithmetic!
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& no more math: have to get a rubicks cube er somethin' after that keep yer brain alive... - I give up fleep: 'Tonetta' - ?? Have to watch some freak on YouTube you mean??
	4:25pm fleep: Yes, and there's a test.
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ahh fleep...always thot there was some part of this I'd missed...
	4:29pm Laura L: I don't mind being an FS holdout--that's probably better proof that it's me than whatever the FS has that I am given to understand would theoretically prove my existence, apparently through a Tonetta endurance test?
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& you will be cropped into a tiny perfect square...painful but over quickly...
	4:34pm LaVaughna Budget: I'm disappointed I wasn't introduced to this song BEFORE I made my Valentines Day mix CD.
	👻 4:39pm G: Been out on car errands. I see the Dan and Joel mentions above. It's back on AM radio -- dialing past WOR, I heard it. About their speed. SelectQuote thought if they dropped it from their ad rotation for a year or so, it would sound fresh again. IT DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
	4:41pm rsj: baldy!
	👻 4:42pm G: bitchin' itchin'
	4:42pm Woo: I have a FS log in but I'm too lazy to use it. Maybe if there were prizes I'd be more inclined to do it.
	👻 4:44pm G: Nowhere to run, nowhere to scratch
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a rash of puns...
	4:46pm Droll: G, It's back?! Really? The original? Didn't Sinead recently put her foot in her mouth again? Maybe she deserved that mashup.
	4:47pm still b/p: Still Facebalking. Won't have my soul Zucked.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I find I agree w/ a good bit of what Sinead has to say - but - for a Popular Artist, she sure has an interesting relationship w/ Communication ...I wonder if you're thinking of Michelle Shocked?
	👻 4:49pm G: Yes, totally unchanged as far as I heard, Droll, but I came in in the middle of it. (Sometimes they change something when they drag old ads out again, but not when THEY ARE CHEAP AND DONT GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT PRODUCTION VALUES.)
	👻 4:50pm rrg: Rat's ass.
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes, true: company pulled budget on apostrophes...
	4:52pm Droll: G, I know they recorded at least two versions with different prices, and subtly different wording. However, if they added something like an entire sentence, that would be a game-changer.
	👻 4:53pm G: Faulkner often omitted contractional apostophes for vernacular effect. I call precedent. (And he was copying the final episode of Ulysses.)
	👻 4:54pm rrg: Oh, so you're talking the vernacular now. Noted.
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...okay this time G...GabbaGabbaWeAcceptYou...
	👻 4:55pm G: Well, listen to some AM radio, if you can hack it. Or just listen to AM spots. It may pop up in your market. Or, for out of your local market, use "I ♥ radio" or one of the many other services now that internet-stream local radio broadcasts.
	👻 4:55pm rrg: Hey, that guy said "shat" on the radio. I heard him.
	👻 4:56pm G: @rrg: All sociolinguistic levels are available arrows in the quiver. I am a freeform discourser.
	4:59pm Droll: I learned to tolerate CD's as plural of CD, but I will not abide by "Vinyls".
	👻 5:00pm rrg: That's me told. I ain't gonna argue.
	5:00pm Emile: Three cheers for Irwin
	👻 5:00pm rrg: I will say CDs but not CD's. That's my particular affectation. Well, not the only one.
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - G : I think that's one thing I admire specifically about NYC...the combination of CultureSmart & Streetwise...
	👻 5:03pm G: I'm from Michigan (as of 1979). :) But yo, gotcha.
	5:05pm Emile: Irwin, you got a team?
	👻 5:06pm G: Protoball. In the vernacular, foreplay.
	5:07pm Laura L: I know one thing about baseball. It is played with a baseball and a bat. Maybe that's two things.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Score! ...'I don't know!' ...'Third base'...
	5:09pm Emile: Earlier today I opened the box of my complete set of 2012 MLB baseball cards. The extra is a little bit of infield dirt from Fenway. I also got a snip of Hunter Pence's jersey. I never knew baseball cards had this stuff in them.
	5:10pm luke Calzonetti: is pete gray (the 1 armed player) in the hall of fame? i met him when i was a little kid.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I know one thing for sure about Baseball : - I don't care. ..."Oh - he's our shortstop!"...
	5:11pm Caryn: The guys in our class played cricket during jr. high PE classes. Kinda stood out from the rest of the school.
	👻 5:11pm rrg: Vacuum cleaner will clean those cards right up.
	5:12pm lou: http://s1218.photobucket.com/user/SABRphotos/media/2013%20Ivor-Campbell%2019th%20Century%20Conference/FowlerWayinCooperstown_zps98ae19fd.jpg.html?sort=3&o=6
	5:13pm paula pc: that was worthy of Paul Harvey
	👻 5:13pm G: It is very common in life that things everyone knows are true are a bunch of crap. And so it goes.
	👻 5:14pm G: ........Good day!!!
	5:15pm Droll: G, I already knew that. Does that mean it's doubly crappy, or I was wrong?
	👻 5:16pm G: It means you may be ahead of the epistemic curve.
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'History is written by the Winners' can never be overstated.
	5:18pm LaVaughna Budget: Dreadful Children!!!!!!! Hello!
	5:19pm Brett: Wow!!
	5:23pm Jeff: Caryn: back during High School times I joined the Cricket Club, partly because at the time it seemed like a fun affectation... but also because I thought that maybe if we were all starting fresh with an unfamiliar game, I wouldn't suck as badly at it as I'd gotten accustomed to relative to the baseball-obsessed other kids. What I learned (and no surprise in retrospect) was that natural athletes are natural athletes, no matter what game they're taking up; and that bookish nerds remain bookish nerds, and are as likely to drop or fear a new type of ball as an old. Oh, also: if someone invites you to stand at Silly Mid On, beware.
	5:25pm Candi Strecker: Bill Nelson = bliss. Thank you!!!
	5:26pm Irwin: @Luke: Pete Gray might be in some HoF, but he's not in THE HoF, except perhaps as a footnote to the 1944 wartime season.
	5:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Holy Crow: I got my windows open @ 5:30 P.M. & it's 74°'s - !...
	5:35pm jan: Lovely Voice that Alexa Barchini; Great show today, but the entire show passes with no Sweet Caroline?
	5:36pm fleep: Different Bobby Brown. Unless he's taken a new direction.
	👻 5:38pm G: Sweet Caroline is busy practicing Road Runner in her mirror.
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Zappa had 'Bobby Brown' - & 'Pound for a Brown'...it's confusing...
	5:38pm Irwin: @Lou: I'm in one of those photos (audience snapshot).
	5:45pm WaveyDavey: Lightbulbs are like your soul...except you can't unscrew your soul once it's screwed.
	👻 5:47pm G: Jockey them discs!
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's a ride that just goes around & around...
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: \|[H]ooooooo@]\|-] _ _______ _ _ \|\|xxxxxxxxxxx\|\|-\| \|\|xxxxxxxxxxx\|\|-\| \|\|x[Marshall]x\|\|-\| \|\|xxxxxxxxxxx\|\|-\| \\m//_ (>L_ < ) )) _\\m//
	5:54pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: You sure have a lot of cheer, over something that's blue.
	👻 5:56pm rrg: Where has the time gone?
	👻 5:57pm rrg: I'm off to heat up those excellent leftovers for dinner. Catch you all in the future, where we will all be spending the rest of our lives.
	5:58pm Droll: Irwin, Thanks for the Xenia Rubinos clue. Have a fun week everyone!
	5:58pm fleep: Thanks, Irwin.
	👻 5:59pm rrg: Oh, right. Irwin. Yes, thanks.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Note my Comments as RevRabbitNov63 : www.youtube.com...
	5:59pm Laura L: Thanks, Irwin--and I'm glad you had fun at that conference.
	5:59pm Listening Out There: thx again!
	👻 5:59pm G: How did people decide hell is especially loud?
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Irwin! Now, failure, here we come!

	3:54pm ChrisB.: Klaatu. What kidders.
	3:55pm Caryn: Seriously, I thought this was a Sesame Street track! Like Oscar the Grouch or something. WTF, Klaatu?
	3:56pm Droll: The best part of wakin' up, is we shop, you save in your cup! I loved that ad!
	👻 3:59pm rrg: "You're being condescending. That means to talk down to."
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'd explain it to you, but I don't have any crayons...
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Whoa, really? I've heard all those! No clue it was Richie! Many have done the Folgers jingle, but I know which one you're referring to.
	4:01pm Matt from Springfield: I wouldn't BE so condescending, if everyone else wasn't so STUPID!! Now, where did I leave my crayons...
	👻 4:02pm rrg: I think this is the first time I've heard The Roches on Irwin's show.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Einstein (paraphrase): Things shouldn't be any more complicated than they need to be - but they shouldn't be any simpler than they really are...
	👻 4:04pm rrg: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
	4:04pm Laura L: I think it's also the first time I've heard a song about a coat on Irwin's show.
	4:05pm Irwin: @rrg: lots of prior airings, esp. before online PLs.
	👻 4:05pm rrg: Not so, LL. He's played songs about that Famous Blue Raincoat.
	4:06pm Irwin: Laura, your profile photo is the exact same color as the playlist background.
	4:06pm Laura L: I stand corrected! But actually, I am seated. So I sit corrected.
	4:07pm Irwin: @rrg & LL: Does My Morning Jacket count?
	👻 4:07pm rrg: I used to like The Roches a lot. I became disenchanted. Not sure why. I don't like the Three Stooges anymore either. But I'll revisit. I have all their albums.
	👻 4:08pm rrg: Not the Stooges' albums...oh, you know what I mean.
	4:08pm Matt from Springfield: "No plurality, without necessity". @Irwin: Now for that to count, Laura would have to be logged in to the FS, with an avatar the exact same solid color as the playlist. In the early weeks of the FS, some commenters were trying to do just that.
	👻 4:09pm rrg: I've seen them perform this in concert a lot. It was really long. Just like now. But it's fine! I like it. Really.
	4:09pm Droll: My Morning Jacket is not a song, only a band name, so no points. This song is long enough for me crank up The Answer Machine again...
	👻 4:10pm rrg: Yes, My Morning Jacket counts. Are you trying to make me do a playlist search for Irwin-played coat and jacket songs? It won't work!
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some Artists I max out on - prob. possible w/ most any. On a thing called 'LaunchCast' (Pandora precursor??) I Rated Dina Washington highly & just burnt out on her, but I'm over it. ...I even used to max out on The Beatles sometimes - but then they Remasterd them four years ago - & I haven't got over that yet!...
	👻 4:11pm rrg: All right, they don't count, then.
	4:11pm Droll: RRG, With stakes this high, I think a bigger fight should ensue. Try again.
	4:11pm Carmichael: But there's never been a song about a windbreaker. I'll bet ya ...
	4:12pm Laura L: Irwin, you can't see me because I don't even know what the FS is. @ rrg, a revisit to The Three Stooges is in order! Get busy!
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if yer gonna have a Manhattan Rumble about it - we'll hold your Coats...
	👻 4:14pm rrg: Laura, FS is the WFMU Friendship Society. The thing you don't belong to yet. So we could be sure it's really you.
	👻 4:16pm rrg: I meant to put a comma there, not a semicolon. And now it's too late! If only there were someone who could correct that.
	4:16pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Spinal Tap, "Break Like The Wind"? @rrg: I have several VHSs worth of Three Stooges if you want to get reacquainted with them.
	4:16pm Listening Out There: Laura, you and I could continue to be FS holdouts: the outsiders' outsiders. Worth considering! :)
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Voter I.D. - esp. usefull for intimidating people into Pledging to the station so any of us can have this...
	4:18pm Droll: [Getting that creepy 1984 Memory Hole feeling again] There will always be the comments referring to RRG's humiliating error even if the error "disappears".
	4:18pm Irwin: @rrg: If only.
	4:19pm fleep: The FS hazing process is admittedly arduous and involves a lot of Tonetta, but it's worth it.
	👻 4:21pm rrg: And no more arithmetic!
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& no more math: have to get a rubicks cube er somethin' after that keep yer brain alive... - I give up fleep: 'Tonetta' - ?? Have to watch some freak on YouTube you mean??
	4:25pm fleep: Yes, and there's a test.
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ahh fleep...always thot there was some part of this I'd missed...
	4:29pm Laura L: I don't mind being an FS holdout--that's probably better proof that it's me than whatever the FS has that I am given to understand would theoretically prove my existence, apparently through a Tonetta endurance test?
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& you will be cropped into a tiny perfect square...painful but over quickly...
	4:34pm LaVaughna Budget: I'm disappointed I wasn't introduced to this song BEFORE I made my Valentines Day mix CD.
	👻 4:39pm G: Been out on car errands. I see the Dan and Joel mentions above. It's back on AM radio -- dialing past WOR, I heard it. About their speed. SelectQuote thought if they dropped it from their ad rotation for a year or so, it would sound fresh again. IT DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
	4:41pm rsj: baldy!
	👻 4:42pm G: bitchin' itchin'
	4:42pm Woo: I have a FS log in but I'm too lazy to use it. Maybe if there were prizes I'd be more inclined to do it.
	👻 4:44pm G: Nowhere to run, nowhere to scratch
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a rash of puns...
	4:46pm Droll: G, It's back?! Really? The original? Didn't Sinead recently put her foot in her mouth again? Maybe she deserved that mashup.
	4:47pm still b/p: Still Facebalking. Won't have my soul Zucked.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I find I agree w/ a good bit of what Sinead has to say - but - for a Popular Artist, she sure has an interesting relationship w/ Communication ...I wonder if you're thinking of Michelle Shocked?
	👻 4:49pm G: Yes, totally unchanged as far as I heard, Droll, but I came in in the middle of it. (Sometimes they change something when they drag old ads out again, but not when THEY ARE CHEAP AND DONT GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT PRODUCTION VALUES.)
	👻 4:50pm rrg: Rat's ass.
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes, true: company pulled budget on apostrophes...
	4:52pm Droll: G, I know they recorded at least two versions with different prices, and subtly different wording. However, if they added something like an entire sentence, that would be a game-changer.
	👻 4:53pm G: Faulkner often omitted contractional apostophes for vernacular effect. I call precedent. (And he was copying the final episode of Ulysses.)
	👻 4:54pm rrg: Oh, so you're talking the vernacular now. Noted.
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...okay this time G...GabbaGabbaWeAcceptYou...
	👻 4:55pm G: Well, listen to some AM radio, if you can hack it. Or just listen to AM spots. It may pop up in your market. Or, for out of your local market, use "I ♥ radio" or one of the many other services now that internet-stream local radio broadcasts.
	👻 4:55pm rrg: Hey, that guy said "shat" on the radio. I heard him.
	👻 4:56pm G: @rrg: All sociolinguistic levels are available arrows in the quiver. I am a freeform discourser.
	4:59pm Droll: I learned to tolerate CD's as plural of CD, but I will not abide by "Vinyls".
	👻 5:00pm rrg: That's me told. I ain't gonna argue.
	5:00pm Emile: Three cheers for Irwin
	👻 5:00pm rrg: I will say CDs but not CD's. That's my particular affectation. Well, not the only one.
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - G : I think that's one thing I admire specifically about NYC...the combination of CultureSmart & Streetwise...
	👻 5:03pm G: I'm from Michigan (as of 1979). :) But yo, gotcha.
	5:05pm Emile: Irwin, you got a team?
	👻 5:06pm G: Protoball. In the vernacular, foreplay.
	5:07pm Laura L: I know one thing about baseball. It is played with a baseball and a bat. Maybe that's two things.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Score! ...'I don't know!' ...'Third base'...
	5:09pm Emile: Earlier today I opened the box of my complete set of 2012 MLB baseball cards. The extra is a little bit of infield dirt from Fenway. I also got a snip of Hunter Pence's jersey. I never knew baseball cards had this stuff in them.
	5:10pm luke Calzonetti: is pete gray (the 1 armed player) in the hall of fame? i met him when i was a little kid.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I know one thing for sure about Baseball : - I don't care. ..."Oh - he's our shortstop!"...
	5:11pm Caryn: The guys in our class played cricket during jr. high PE classes. Kinda stood out from the rest of the school.
	👻 5:11pm rrg: Vacuum cleaner will clean those cards right up.

	5:13pm paula pc: that was worthy of Paul Harvey
	👻 5:13pm G: It is very common in life that things everyone knows are true are a bunch of crap. And so it goes.
	👻 5:14pm G: ........Good day!!!
	5:15pm Droll: G, I already knew that. Does that mean it's doubly crappy, or I was wrong?
	👻 5:16pm G: It means you may be ahead of the epistemic curve.
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'History is written by the Winners' can never be overstated.
	5:18pm LaVaughna Budget: Dreadful Children!!!!!!! Hello!
	5:19pm Brett: Wow!!
	5:23pm Jeff: Caryn: back during High School times I joined the Cricket Club, partly because at the time it seemed like a fun affectation... but also because I thought that maybe if we were all starting fresh with an unfamiliar game, I wouldn't suck as badly at it as I'd gotten accustomed to relative to the baseball-obsessed other kids. What I learned (and no surprise in retrospect) was that natural athletes are natural athletes, no matter what game they're taking up; and that bookish nerds remain bookish nerds, and are as likely to drop or fear a new type of ball as an old. Oh, also: if someone invites you to stand at Silly Mid On, beware.
	5:25pm Candi Strecker: Bill Nelson = bliss. Thank you!!!
	5:26pm Irwin: @Luke: Pete Gray might be in some HoF, but he's not in THE HoF, except perhaps as a footnote to the 1944 wartime season.
	5:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Holy Crow: I got my windows open @ 5:30 P.M. & it's 74°'s - !...
	5:35pm jan: Lovely Voice that Alexa Barchini; Great show today, but the entire show passes with no Sweet Caroline?
	5:36pm fleep: Different Bobby Brown. Unless he's taken a new direction.
	👻 5:38pm G: Sweet Caroline is busy practicing Road Runner in her mirror.
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Zappa had 'Bobby Brown' - & 'Pound for a Brown'...it's confusing...
	5:38pm Irwin: @Lou: I'm in one of those photos (audience snapshot).
	5:45pm WaveyDavey: Lightbulbs are like your soul...except you can't unscrew your soul once it's screwed.
	👻 5:47pm G: Jockey them discs!
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it's a ride that just goes around & around...

	5:54pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: You sure have a lot of cheer, over something that's blue.
	👻 5:56pm rrg: Where has the time gone?
	👻 5:57pm rrg: I'm off to heat up those excellent leftovers for dinner. Catch you all in the future, where we will all be spending the rest of our lives.
	5:58pm Droll: Irwin, Thanks for the Xenia Rubinos clue. Have a fun week everyone!
	5:58pm fleep: Thanks, Irwin.
	👻 5:59pm rrg: Oh, right. Irwin. Yes, thanks.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Note my Comments as RevRabbitNov63 : www.youtube.com...
	5:59pm Laura L: Thanks, Irwin--and I'm glad you had fun at that conference.
	5:59pm Listening Out There: thx again!
	👻 5:59pm G: How did people decide hell is especially loud?
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks Irwin! Now, failure, here we come!
