6:28pm northguineahills:

I've eaten a ghost pepper at a chili-eating contest, i got through a half before I got tunnel vision and my ears started to ring. I got third place.

🚽

6:28pm Marshall Stacks:

@dale I'm ready for the future! But what if it's permanently 9:45 in the future, like some crazy Zeno's Herring Paradox?

That would suck.

6:29pm mb:

somebody gotta flip the record, maaan

6:29pm fleep:

So I guess I'm typing from the past.

6:29pm grubbus:

I love Ken's boutineer!

6:29pm Snortley:

Same as before: the 91.1 transmitter is putting out a good strong signal, but there's no audio to it. Sound is on and off sporadically.

6:29pm grubbus:

I love Ken's boutineer!

6:29pm steve:

ngh - i put a ball and a half of wasabi in my soy sauce when i have sushi... am i ready for a ghost pepper??

6:30pm tonyb:

@benny
...are you my pal benny
who works for j&j
in west jersey?
if not
best regards for '15 anyhoo :)

6:33pm dale:

i would hate for it to be permanently 9:45. it's that point of the night where you get tired but feel like you need to stay awake or else you've become an old fart. forever stuck in that malaise would suck.

6:33pm deborah:

Can't get the internet stream to play either. I am doing nothing this year. Just reading Tolstoy, listening to music, and thinking about the New Year and how it will be so much better.

6:33pm Asheville Jon:

they are not using a possum this year

6:33pm Asheville Jon:

*live

6:33pm deborah:

Possum drop was canceled, I think.

6:33pm Tim:

What is this music looping in the background?

6:34pm andy the painter:

yes, i second robert (from the bronx?):
long live us people who are, and support, free-form!
for better or worse, wfmu is at the center of my cultural life, and i hope it's around for a long time.
happy new year to ken and everyone listening.

6:34pm dale:

jon - do they just drop a possum out a window or is it going down slowly in a nice cage?

🚽

6:34pm Ken From Hyde Park:

It's Hallogallo time! It's Hallogallo time!

6:35pm benny:

@deborah: I'm going to finish Anna Karenina in just 150 more pages!
@tonyb: nope, different benny here.

6:35pm glenn:

embrace your inner old fart, dale.

6:36pm Marcel M:

This is fun!

6:36pm Asheville Jon:

i've not personally been to the possum drop, but my understanding is that they put it in a cylinder and lower it, then let it go
see the link i posted for more info

6:38pm Ken From Hyde Park:
