	♥ 10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...back from WerkMeeting to join WFMtUesday in progress ! - Good Morning German Birdies ! ...'Pres. Analyst' is the best...
	10:07am chris: Lots of amazing bird soundscapes here: http://www.naturesoundmap.com/
	♥ 10:08am Dominick: Bridgeghazi
	♥ 10:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we Dems should be careful what we wish for: maybe we wanted Christie to run against Hillary...
	10:09am βrian: That's why the New Yorker really got their cover right.
	♥ 10:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I would've liked to watch that match....
	10:10am andrew: I dislike political editorializing on WFMU music shows.
	10:10am glenn: honest to god, i can't think of a single sane right winger in north america.
	♥ 10:11am Sem Chumbo: @glenn: itsn't there that guy who plays for the Leafs?
	10:12am glenn: well, playing for the leafs makes you crazy by definition.
	♥ 10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this is why the Right Wing represents them OldSchool Moral Values - again & again & again... @andrew: Should we include Dave Emory, Clay Pidgeon, Irwin...Punk Rock songs...&tc. ??...
	10:13am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Tuning in to chimps screeching over french singing. Morning!
	10:15am chris: Trouble have u heard this?: http://ulrichziegler.bandcamp.com/ I bet u would like it if you haven't checked it already
	♥ 10:18am Sem Chumbo: @glenn: I'm a little late with this but,TOUCHÉ!
	10:19am glenn: for instance, here's a guy proposing firing squads. yep, he's a republican. news.nationalpost.com...
	♥ 10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oo - this Blunstone hitting the Zombie buttons good...plus, he wouldn't have to change his name to be on The Flintstones...
	10:22am Turnstone: Lovely Colin Bluntstone track.
	♥ 10:23am Guido (Cologne): Great voice. Always dig the Zombies. (Remeber hearing him first with Alan Parsons Project.)
	10:23am Tiago: Yay, I'm listening to Trouble live!
	10:26am herb.nyc: hola to all. and thank you for COLIN BLUNSTONE. "caroline adios" is prob the 1st solo song of his i ever heard, around 1990, 2nd prob is "say you don't mind". wotta voice.
	10:27am Cecile: glenn, I can name a couple, but they skew liberatarian, are younger and are not running for public office.
	10:29am Cecile: herrb, ain't that the truth. And he has some taste and sensibility too - knows what fits and what doesn't. I'm looking at you STEVE WINWOOD.
	10:29am glenn: but libertarianism is an idea that sounds good at first blush, only to fall apart when you scrutinize it.
	10:30am kwhitehead: Libertarians are just Republicans who like to smoke pot.
	10:30am bobdoesthings: appropriate lyrics, eh?
	10:31am Cecile: Well, they are more "smaller government, keep some decent infrastructure, and individual liberty". They are not purists.
	10:31am Cecile: The purists are beyond the pale.
	10:31am Cecile: trouble, you are killing it this am. You could fill a dancefloor with this.
	10:33am βrian: The libertarians I've known are the most purely ideological specimens imaginable. Winks are not allowed.
	♥ 10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Libertarianism is a Fantasy that we are not a a Society of people that have to find a way to live together - an ever-more complex one. It's a nice dream. ...Yeah - getting Govt. out of the bedroom & out of the Prohibition business is stuff we can get behind - sure - but getting rid of the Rules that have prevented Big Business from creating another Depression & buying the Electoral Process (&tc.) has been a complete Disaster in major proportions for us. What about OUR Liberty & Rights to the Pursuit of Happiness & Domestic Tranquility & Representation - ?!?!?!!!
	10:36am Cecile: Politics is like a religion for more people across the spectrum than I care to name.
	10:36am Lewis: @chris - that bird soundscape site is really cool
	10:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: Thus far, the most repulsive thing about libertarianism are the libertarians themselves. Smug little creatures that seem forever drunk on the sound of themselves talking.
	♥ 10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yes - Ideology trumps Problem Solving.
	♥ 10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& it's freaking Expensive.
	10:38am Rev. Turnip Druid: [the previous RTD statement based solely on the small sample I've encountered over the years. This opinion does not necessarily represent the views of anyone outside my brain.]
	10:40am Cecile: yeah, I guess I'm a kind of cafeteria centrist. Take something from here, take something from there.
	♥ 10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...as I've noted before: CongressPeople spend most of their time raising campaign funds - being telemarketers & salespeople - not representing us or improving the Nation.
	10:41am Rev. Turnip Druid: Makes sense, Cecile. Life should be a bit of a happy buffet, yes?
	10:41am Cecile: I once voted for a guy because his only agenda was to keep the snow plowed, checks mailed on time and the streets swept. They mocked him, but the next mayor stole that plank for his platform.
	10:41am longtime listener: Imagine living in New York! With cuomo and deblasio
	10:41am Cecile: ITA, RTD.
	♥ 10:42am SeanG: Jonesy!
	♥ 10:42am Priscilla: jazz bagpipes!
	10:43am Cecile: He was a Republican, and I usually don't vote that way. But I am from Michigan, home of the split ticket, and since he didn't include any religion or idealogy with that street sweeping, I couldn't not vote for him.
	10:43am Cecile: RUFUS.
	♥ 10:44am Guido (Cologne): Still waiting for that package of Rufus Harley ... ... damn mail/custons/whatever ...
	10:44am glenn: i'm just waiting for the day when some candidate comes out as openly atheist.
	10:46am βrian: These are the bird sounds we've been recently hearing hereabouts: www.owlpages.com... Mating season is upon us.
	10:46am Cecile: Wish that guy had won this morning. 6" of snow and a total mess
	10:48am sugarwolf: I would vote for a plowed street candidate.
	10:48am bobdoesthings: oooo this beatrice arnac is lovely.
	♥ 10:48am Adrian in London: Anyway, away from the whys and wherefores of libertarianism, loving the sounds this afternoon Trouble. The soundtrack to me editing interviews.
	♥ 10:51am Sem Chumbo: Trouble, digging it all, the Francoise Hardy being just a sweet, sweet bonus. Also, the political discussion is worth being here for. Thanks everybody.
	10:51am northguineahills: I want a pet owl, but you'd have to buy so many mice and critters for them to eat. Not to mention a Brooklyn apartment doesn't really give them enough room to stretch their wings.
	10:51am Cecile: Francoise Hardy is alive and well! It's a hoax!
	10:51am Cecile: en.mediamass.net...
	10:54am earrie: @ngh Plus, owls collect sound in the concave facial discs surrounding their eyes. It'd be outrageously loud for them.
	10:55am Cecile: Owls are the coolest predators.
	♥ 10:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Django was a dashing lovable boho rascal - & did more to improve our world w/ only two fingers ! : p ...
	♥ 10:56am Sem Chumbo: You know, I replaced my 25 year old French Basques beret this Christmas with another of the same kind. Had to go put it on for this set:)
	♥ 10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...owls completely adapted as Nocturnes...we ♏Scorpios love our Birds of Prey !...
	10:58am βrian: I associate Django with working in a cafe. I heard so much of it that it just instantly exhausts me now. So it goes.
	10:58am glenn: oh, i'm afraid not. polar bears are the coolest predators, literally and figuratively. and they're damn cute when they're wee, as an added bonus.
	♥ 10:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so cute & Maternal - & more likely to remove your face w/ a swish of the paw & chew you up than any other creature...
	11:00am βrian: I'm with the owls. I find their silent swooping so impressive.
	♥ 11:00am mark: Great playlist today, Trouble!
	♥ 11:01am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Owls associated by different Peoples w/ Wisdom, Fortune, Death...
	11:05am βrian: "Gardez les voyelles ouvertes !"
	♥ 11:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - lovely set DJ T.
	♥ 11:08am Priscilla: The Flamethrowers!
	11:09am Cecile: glenn, baby owls are teh crazy cute www.google.com...
	♥ 11:10am Trouble: ooo priscilla, that is my next desire! is it great?
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh. this.
	11:10am glenn: the secret history - donna tartt the golden ratio - mario livio sunshine sketches of a small town - stephen leacock montreal confidential - al palmer.
	♥ 11:11am Vivian: On my reading list- The Secret History by Donna Tartt and Keith Richard's Life. Both are excellent!
	♥ 11:11am Vivian: Glenn! What a coincidence, how far are you into SH?
	11:11am glenn: ha vivian!
	♥ 11:12am Guido (Cologne): Opposite with me: I read most in the summer, on the balcony etc.
	♥ 11:12am Priscilla: It is so great that I stopped reading it, because I don't want it to end. I've been listening to Italian pop music too, to amplify the experience. It is fabulous.
	11:12am glenn: i'm on page 126.
	♥ 11:13am Vivian: I'm on page 47. Hope to complete it by next Tuesday..
	11:14am glenn: you want cute, cecile? www.blogto.com...
	♥ 11:15am Priscilla: Also got The Goldfinch for Christmas — that's next.
	11:15am glenn: i read the goldfinch over christmas. donna tartt is pretty great.
	11:16am earrie: Kenojuak's owls are quite lovely, too (Kenojuak Ashevak owls).
	11:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: I tend to revisit old favorites during winter. Escapist paranoid fiction (early Ballard, 'the burning world' etc)
	11:16am northguineahills: Might have to pick up that New Age comp. oddly enough, I've liked everything I've heard on it.
	11:16am TDK60: Great show Trouble. I listen via 9.11 more than computer. Just finished '2312' by Kim Stanley Robinson. Sci-fi. Fun, in a way. Just starting Dostoevsky's 'Notes From Underground'. A few pages in. Grim is the adjective.
	11:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...and owls are by far the most highly evolved species on earth [again, these views may not reflect.... etc...]
	11:18am TDK60: That's 91.1 FM, East Orange.
	11:18am Doug Wieselman: Trouble Love your show. I am an ex- Lounge LIzard (circa '96-99), also one of the "and the JOhnsons" with Antony. I was one of the people who told John that you'd bee waxing poetic about him and sort of helped steer him to you. Short Story collections : Check out Eudora Welty. Not reading her currently but those storiesjump off the page ! Currently delving into Neitzcshe but recently read Anais Nin's Seduction of the Minotaur which is great. My favorite short stories are from Dylan Thomas.
	11:18am glenn: holy fecundity, batman. news.nationalpost.com...
	♥ 11:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& - owls're invariably...Wh♂fans...
	♥ 11:20am Adrian in London: Just finishing By Blood by Ellen Ullmann on Pushkin press, which is very good; and I'm about to start The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt when I've finished that. I bought a lot in the Kindle 99p Christmas sale to read on my phone during the year.
	11:20am Cecile: I can't read fiction right now. My ADD is too bad, but I did get an awesome Steven Heller book of ornaments and lettering from 1898-1936. Gorgeous. And it has a CD-ROM!
	♥ 11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the Lizards' 'Money' certainly a Classic - & TheWh♂ are Antony boosters, I believe!...
	11:21am duke: @adrian by coincidence, I just finished By Blood. Really enjoyed it
	11:21am Cecile: Rev, and owls's favorite song is whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo are you?
	11:22am Cecile: RevRab, Lounge Lizards, not Flying Lizards.
	11:22am northguineahills: Ok, Rev and Cecile are getting rather silly ;)
	♥ 11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh right !...
	11:23am Cecile: yea, this isn't Keili's show. hahahaha. But save those up for Friday, RevRab.
	♥ 11:24am Priscilla: This takes me back
	11:24am duke: Read the Secret History and Little Friend by Donna Tartt. I'm looking forward to The Goldfinch
	♥ 11:24am Adrian in London: @Duke. I'm exactly 80% of the way through! I really recommend Pushkin Press. I also really liked Butterflies in November by the Icelandic author Audur Ava Olafsdottir, on the same publisher's.
	11:24am Dr. Goot: Yay, 'Driving Me Backwards!'
	♥ 11:24am Guido (Cologne): ENO !
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'LoungeLizards'...serious Jazz players - Respect !!...
	11:25am Cecile: you know, eno just needs to be heard more. He's talked about too much without musical reference in the music and mainstream press.
	11:25am βrian: Les hiboux font "hoo."
	♥ 11:26am Guido (Cologne): ten times more important than any bowie in the universe!
	11:28am Cecile: how cute is this? www.google.com...
	11:28am earrie: H-I-B-O-U-X ! (http://actuellecd.com/en/cat/am_071)
	♥ 11:29am Priscilla: I knew a girl who was going out with Eno, and told us they were married, but not to tell anyone because it was a secret. Turned out not to be true.
	11:31am herb.nyc: btw, i'm married to CHLOE SEBIGNY. well, maybe in a future episode of that cable mormon show (which i've never seen)
	11:31am glenn: huh. i'm shocked.
	♥ 11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am married to my ignorance, & that's no lie.
	♥ 11:32am Priscilla: Hey, if you were married you'd spell her name right! Also, this was a LONG time ago.
	♥ 11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...nice to hear not 'RedRubberBall'...
	11:33am Cecile: I just can't imagine Eno dating anyone.
	11:34am Chris from DC: This might be the first Cyrkle song I've heard other than Red Rubber Ball. I like.
	11:34am herb.nyc: quick, did s&garf cover a CYRKLE song? (that's how CHLOE got out of the marriage, that the license contained a misspel)
	♥ 11:35am Sem Chumbo: Simon wrote it, I think.
	11:35am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Trouble, here's a great read: "Brief Encounters with Che Guevara" by Ben Fountain. It's a collection of short stories, the best being "Near-Extinct Birds of the Central Cordillera". Here's a GoodReads synopsis:www.goodreads.com...
	♥ 11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Paul Simon co-wrote RRB...which I like just what Chris said...
	11:35am herb.nyc: ooh, i just played a cassette of a live BEACH BOYS related thing, from folk city, 1985, this very morning.
	11:35am Listening Out There: ...must be Cyrkle week on WFMU. Dave Mandl played Red Rubber Ball on Sunday...
	♥ 11:35am mark: interactive bird-song poster... making sure DJ T has seen this! www.dnr.state.mn.us...
	11:37am glenn: oddly enough, maybe eno DID secretly get married. en.mediamass.net...
	♥ 11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That Poster is the best mark !
	11:38am glenn: or maybe not.
	♥ 11:40am dale: @ mr. wieselman - how is jane scarpantoni doing? we were friends in another life.
	♥ 11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I love the chickadee !...
	11:41am John K: Trouble: Great show. Comme d'habitude. Did I miss today's art credit? Can't find it in the voluminous comments!
	11:42am sugarwolf: I've been reading Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano series. It makes me hungry! He's always eating tasty food or going swimming.
	11:45am drewo: I only recently discovered essayist Alain de Botton. I am reading his book on travel - plan to check out more.
	♥ 11:46am Adrian in London: @sugarwold They;re good, and have been made into a fun, if occasionally baffling, TV series, in which the lead characters waistline expands as time goes on. There a new version, called Young Montalbano too, which is worth catching as well.
	♥ 11:46am Adrian in London: f not d. Typo, sorry.
	11:47am earrie: Appreciate the music. And the re: reads. And the owls and other animaux. Merci/Thanks.
	11:49am Chris from DC: Nice segue to A Certain Ratio.
	11:49am onemanclapping: ACR <3
	11:50am sugarwolf: adrian: thanks, will check it out!
	♥ 11:51am Guido (Cologne): Factory angst funk! I LOVE IT!
	♥ 11:51am Joe McG: Really great show, Trouble!
	11:52am van: Hey Doug Wieselman - really enjoyed your performance on Irene's show!
	♥ 11:53am Guido (Cologne): Bobby Gentry!
	♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this set also the kewlest...
	♥ 11:53am Adrian in London: @sugarwolf It's been screened here in the UK on BBC4, with English subs, if that helps when you;re searching certain sites.
	11:55am Rev. Turnip Druid: YAY, a top fave Fall, this.
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: tootles, thanks for listening!
	♥ 11:56am Guido (Cologne): ... though can't remeber the song. Bonus-track possible? Hey! M.E.S.!!! all in one show!
	♥ 11:56am Trouble: today's art is by sarah crowner.
	11:56am northguineahills: Beautiful as per usual, Trouble! Thanks for inputting some color into our morning!
	♥ 11:56am Guido (Cologne): thanks for beeing our DJ!
	11:59am duke: Great finish with the fall
	♥ 11:59am Priscilla: Grazie!

	♥ 10:18am Sem Chumbo: @glenn: I'm a little late with this but,TOUCHÉ!
	10:19am glenn: for instance, here's a guy proposing firing squads. yep, he's a republican. news.nationalpost.com...
	♥ 10:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oo - this Blunstone hitting the Zombie buttons good...plus, he wouldn't have to change his name to be on The Flintstones...
	10:22am Turnstone: Lovely Colin Bluntstone track.
	♥ 10:23am Guido (Cologne): Great voice. Always dig the Zombies. (Remeber hearing him first with Alan Parsons Project.)
	10:23am Tiago: Yay, I'm listening to Trouble live!
	10:26am herb.nyc: hola to all. and thank you for COLIN BLUNSTONE. "caroline adios" is prob the 1st solo song of his i ever heard, around 1990, 2nd prob is "say you don't mind". wotta voice.
	10:27am Cecile: glenn, I can name a couple, but they skew liberatarian, are younger and are not running for public office.
	10:29am Cecile: herrb, ain't that the truth. And he has some taste and sensibility too - knows what fits and what doesn't. I'm looking at you STEVE WINWOOD.
	10:29am glenn: but libertarianism is an idea that sounds good at first blush, only to fall apart when you scrutinize it.
	10:30am kwhitehead: Libertarians are just Republicans who like to smoke pot.
	10:30am bobdoesthings: appropriate lyrics, eh?
	10:31am Cecile: Well, they are more "smaller government, keep some decent infrastructure, and individual liberty". They are not purists.
	10:31am Cecile: The purists are beyond the pale.
	10:31am Cecile: trouble, you are killing it this am. You could fill a dancefloor with this.
	10:33am βrian: The libertarians I've known are the most purely ideological specimens imaginable. Winks are not allowed.
	♥ 10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Libertarianism is a Fantasy that we are not a a Society of people that have to find a way to live together - an ever-more complex one. It's a nice dream. ...Yeah - getting Govt. out of the bedroom & out of the Prohibition business is stuff we can get behind - sure - but getting rid of the Rules that have prevented Big Business from creating another Depression & buying the Electoral Process (&tc.) has been a complete Disaster in major proportions for us. What about OUR Liberty & Rights to the Pursuit of Happiness & Domestic Tranquility & Representation - ?!?!?!!!
	10:36am Cecile: Politics is like a religion for more people across the spectrum than I care to name.
	10:36am Lewis: @chris - that bird soundscape site is really cool
	10:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: Thus far, the most repulsive thing about libertarianism are the libertarians themselves. Smug little creatures that seem forever drunk on the sound of themselves talking.
	♥ 10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yes - Ideology trumps Problem Solving.
	♥ 10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& it's freaking Expensive.
	10:38am Rev. Turnip Druid: [the previous RTD statement based solely on the small sample I've encountered over the years. This opinion does not necessarily represent the views of anyone outside my brain.]
	10:40am Cecile: yeah, I guess I'm a kind of cafeteria centrist. Take something from here, take something from there.
	♥ 10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...as I've noted before: CongressPeople spend most of their time raising campaign funds - being telemarketers & salespeople - not representing us or improving the Nation.
	10:41am Rev. Turnip Druid: Makes sense, Cecile. Life should be a bit of a happy buffet, yes?
	10:41am Cecile: I once voted for a guy because his only agenda was to keep the snow plowed, checks mailed on time and the streets swept. They mocked him, but the next mayor stole that plank for his platform.
	10:41am longtime listener: Imagine living in New York! With cuomo and deblasio
	10:41am Cecile: ITA, RTD.
	♥ 10:42am SeanG: Jonesy!
	♥ 10:42am Priscilla: jazz bagpipes!
	10:43am Cecile: He was a Republican, and I usually don't vote that way. But I am from Michigan, home of the split ticket, and since he didn't include any religion or idealogy with that street sweeping, I couldn't not vote for him.
	10:43am Cecile: RUFUS.
	♥ 10:44am Guido (Cologne): Still waiting for that package of Rufus Harley ... ... damn mail/custons/whatever ...
	10:44am glenn: i'm just waiting for the day when some candidate comes out as openly atheist.
	10:46am βrian: These are the bird sounds we've been recently hearing hereabouts: www.owlpages.com... Mating season is upon us.
	10:46am Cecile: Wish that guy had won this morning. 6" of snow and a total mess
	10:48am sugarwolf: I would vote for a plowed street candidate.
	10:48am bobdoesthings: oooo this beatrice arnac is lovely.
	♥ 10:48am Adrian in London: Anyway, away from the whys and wherefores of libertarianism, loving the sounds this afternoon Trouble. The soundtrack to me editing interviews.
	♥ 10:51am Sem Chumbo: Trouble, digging it all, the Francoise Hardy being just a sweet, sweet bonus. Also, the political discussion is worth being here for. Thanks everybody.
	10:51am northguineahills: I want a pet owl, but you'd have to buy so many mice and critters for them to eat. Not to mention a Brooklyn apartment doesn't really give them enough room to stretch their wings.
	10:51am Cecile: Francoise Hardy is alive and well! It's a hoax!
	10:51am Cecile: en.mediamass.net...
	10:54am earrie: @ngh Plus, owls collect sound in the concave facial discs surrounding their eyes. It'd be outrageously loud for them.
	10:55am Cecile: Owls are the coolest predators.
	♥ 10:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Django was a dashing lovable boho rascal - & did more to improve our world w/ only two fingers ! : p ...
	♥ 10:56am Sem Chumbo: You know, I replaced my 25 year old French Basques beret this Christmas with another of the same kind. Had to go put it on for this set:)
	♥ 10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...owls completely adapted as Nocturnes...we ♏Scorpios love our Birds of Prey !...
	10:58am βrian: I associate Django with working in a cafe. I heard so much of it that it just instantly exhausts me now. So it goes.
	10:58am glenn: oh, i'm afraid not. polar bears are the coolest predators, literally and figuratively. and they're damn cute when they're wee, as an added bonus.
	♥ 10:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so cute & Maternal - & more likely to remove your face w/ a swish of the paw & chew you up than any other creature...
	11:00am βrian: I'm with the owls. I find their silent swooping so impressive.
	♥ 11:00am mark: Great playlist today, Trouble!
	♥ 11:01am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Owls associated by different Peoples w/ Wisdom, Fortune, Death...
	11:05am βrian: "Gardez les voyelles ouvertes !"
	♥ 11:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - lovely set DJ T.
	♥ 11:08am Priscilla: The Flamethrowers!
	11:09am Cecile: glenn, baby owls are teh crazy cute www.google.com...
	♥ 11:10am Trouble: ooo priscilla, that is my next desire! is it great?
	11:10am Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh. this.
	11:10am glenn: the secret history - donna tartt the golden ratio - mario livio sunshine sketches of a small town - stephen leacock montreal confidential - al palmer.
	♥ 11:11am Vivian: On my reading list- The Secret History by Donna Tartt and Keith Richard's Life. Both are excellent!
	♥ 11:11am Vivian: Glenn! What a coincidence, how far are you into SH?
	11:11am glenn: ha vivian!
	♥ 11:12am Guido (Cologne): Opposite with me: I read most in the summer, on the balcony etc.
	♥ 11:12am Priscilla: It is so great that I stopped reading it, because I don't want it to end. I've been listening to Italian pop music too, to amplify the experience. It is fabulous.
	11:12am glenn: i'm on page 126.
	♥ 11:13am Vivian: I'm on page 47. Hope to complete it by next Tuesday..
	11:14am glenn: you want cute, cecile? www.blogto.com...
	♥ 11:15am Priscilla: Also got The Goldfinch for Christmas — that's next.
	11:15am glenn: i read the goldfinch over christmas. donna tartt is pretty great.
	11:16am earrie: Kenojuak's owls are quite lovely, too (Kenojuak Ashevak owls).
	11:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: I tend to revisit old favorites during winter. Escapist paranoid fiction (early Ballard, 'the burning world' etc)
	11:16am northguineahills: Might have to pick up that New Age comp. oddly enough, I've liked everything I've heard on it.
	11:16am TDK60: Great show Trouble. I listen via 9.11 more than computer. Just finished '2312' by Kim Stanley Robinson. Sci-fi. Fun, in a way. Just starting Dostoevsky's 'Notes From Underground'. A few pages in. Grim is the adjective.
	11:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...and owls are by far the most highly evolved species on earth [again, these views may not reflect.... etc...]
	11:18am TDK60: That's 91.1 FM, East Orange.
	11:18am Doug Wieselman: Trouble Love your show. I am an ex- Lounge LIzard (circa '96-99), also one of the "and the JOhnsons" with Antony. I was one of the people who told John that you'd bee waxing poetic about him and sort of helped steer him to you. Short Story collections : Check out Eudora Welty. Not reading her currently but those storiesjump off the page ! Currently delving into Neitzcshe but recently read Anais Nin's Seduction of the Minotaur which is great. My favorite short stories are from Dylan Thomas.
	11:18am glenn: holy fecundity, batman. news.nationalpost.com...
	♥ 11:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& - owls're invariably...Wh♂fans...
	♥ 11:20am Adrian in London: Just finishing By Blood by Ellen Ullmann on Pushkin press, which is very good; and I'm about to start The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt when I've finished that. I bought a lot in the Kindle 99p Christmas sale to read on my phone during the year.
	11:20am Cecile: I can't read fiction right now. My ADD is too bad, but I did get an awesome Steven Heller book of ornaments and lettering from 1898-1936. Gorgeous. And it has a CD-ROM!
	♥ 11:21am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the Lizards' 'Money' certainly a Classic - & TheWh♂ are Antony boosters, I believe!...
	11:21am duke: @adrian by coincidence, I just finished By Blood. Really enjoyed it
	11:21am Cecile: Rev, and owls's favorite song is whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo are you?
	11:22am Cecile: RevRab, Lounge Lizards, not Flying Lizards.
	11:22am northguineahills: Ok, Rev and Cecile are getting rather silly ;)
	♥ 11:23am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - oh right !...
	11:23am Cecile: yea, this isn't Keili's show. hahahaha. But save those up for Friday, RevRab.
	♥ 11:24am Priscilla: This takes me back
	11:24am duke: Read the Secret History and Little Friend by Donna Tartt. I'm looking forward to The Goldfinch
	♥ 11:24am Adrian in London: @Duke. I'm exactly 80% of the way through! I really recommend Pushkin Press. I also really liked Butterflies in November by the Icelandic author Audur Ava Olafsdottir, on the same publisher's.
	11:24am Dr. Goot: Yay, 'Driving Me Backwards!'
	♥ 11:24am Guido (Cologne): ENO !
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'LoungeLizards'...serious Jazz players - Respect !!...
	11:25am Cecile: you know, eno just needs to be heard more. He's talked about too much without musical reference in the music and mainstream press.
	11:25am βrian: Les hiboux font "hoo."
	♥ 11:26am Guido (Cologne): ten times more important than any bowie in the universe!
	11:28am Cecile: how cute is this? www.google.com...
	11:28am earrie: H-I-B-O-U-X ! (http://actuellecd.com/en/cat/am_071)
	♥ 11:29am Priscilla: I knew a girl who was going out with Eno, and told us they were married, but not to tell anyone because it was a secret. Turned out not to be true.
	11:31am herb.nyc: btw, i'm married to CHLOE SEBIGNY. well, maybe in a future episode of that cable mormon show (which i've never seen)
	11:31am glenn: huh. i'm shocked.
	♥ 11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am married to my ignorance, & that's no lie.
	♥ 11:32am Priscilla: Hey, if you were married you'd spell her name right! Also, this was a LONG time ago.
	♥ 11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...nice to hear not 'RedRubberBall'...
	11:33am Cecile: I just can't imagine Eno dating anyone.
	11:34am Chris from DC: This might be the first Cyrkle song I've heard other than Red Rubber Ball. I like.
	11:34am herb.nyc: quick, did s&garf cover a CYRKLE song? (that's how CHLOE got out of the marriage, that the license contained a misspel)
	♥ 11:35am Sem Chumbo: Simon wrote it, I think.
	11:35am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Trouble, here's a great read: "Brief Encounters with Che Guevara" by Ben Fountain. It's a collection of short stories, the best being "Near-Extinct Birds of the Central Cordillera". Here's a GoodReads synopsis:www.goodreads.com...
	♥ 11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Paul Simon co-wrote RRB...which I like just what Chris said...
	11:35am herb.nyc: ooh, i just played a cassette of a live BEACH BOYS related thing, from folk city, 1985, this very morning.
	11:35am Listening Out There: ...must be Cyrkle week on WFMU. Dave Mandl played Red Rubber Ball on Sunday...
	♥ 11:35am mark: interactive bird-song poster... making sure DJ T has seen this! www.dnr.state.mn.us...
	11:37am glenn: oddly enough, maybe eno DID secretly get married. en.mediamass.net...
	♥ 11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That Poster is the best mark !
	11:38am glenn: or maybe not.
	♥ 11:40am dale: @ mr. wieselman - how is jane scarpantoni doing? we were friends in another life.
	♥ 11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I love the chickadee !...
	11:41am John K: Trouble: Great show. Comme d'habitude. Did I miss today's art credit? Can't find it in the voluminous comments!
	11:42am sugarwolf: I've been reading Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano series. It makes me hungry! He's always eating tasty food or going swimming.
	11:45am drewo: I only recently discovered essayist Alain de Botton. I am reading his book on travel - plan to check out more.
	♥ 11:46am Adrian in London: @sugarwold They;re good, and have been made into a fun, if occasionally baffling, TV series, in which the lead characters waistline expands as time goes on. There a new version, called Young Montalbano too, which is worth catching as well.
	♥ 11:46am Adrian in London: f not d. Typo, sorry.
	11:47am earrie: Appreciate the music. And the re: reads. And the owls and other animaux. Merci/Thanks.
	11:49am Chris from DC: Nice segue to A Certain Ratio.

	♥ 11:53am Adrian in London: @sugarwolf It's been screened here in the UK on BBC4, with English subs, if that helps when you;re searching certain sites.
	11:55am Rev. Turnip Druid: YAY, a top fave Fall, this.
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: tootles, thanks for listening!
