Afternoon to Charlie and everyone else that comes by.
Avatar 12:02pm Carmichael:

Hiya Charlie. Nice guitar to the left there. Since it's JC Penneys, that's likely a Harmony or Kay.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:02pm Uncle Michael:

Hellooooo!

Traffic jam, wow, haven't heard it in ages!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:08pm doctorjazz:

Hi all!
Avatar 12:08pm Lewis:

Traffic - another band from the college years that has aged fairly well… but that I no longer have in my collection… (all those cassette tapes are long gone (thank goodness))
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:08pm Charlie:

Personalized greetings! Hi Artie, ndBob, bobdoesThings, Parq, OutThere, Michael, Carmichael, Thatpat, Glenn, Frenchee, DrJz!

Loved the Kermit tribute Sunday Charlie. Well done by all.

Thanks, Michael. The marathon finale was great this year! Playlist here, with video of all the Hoof and Mouth performers: wfmu.org...
Avatar 12:25pm Carmichael:

Wow, the internet knows everything. That guitar is a Harmony H15 Bobkat. They're on e-bay for between $450 and $1k.
Avatar 12:25pm ndbob:

Hi Bob!
Avatar 12:33pm ndbob:

Pretty good - although cold and gloomy here - feels more like late March in North Dakota
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:42pm Uncle Michael:

I'm cubically-ensconced.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:45pm Charlie:

Hi Uncle Michael! Are you sleeping in one of those little Japanese cubicle hotels?
Avatar 12:47pm ndbob:

Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:50pm Uncle Michael:

Hi Bob.

No, Charlie. I'm sleeping at work.

A Swingle welcome to you NGH!
Avatar 1:02pm still b/p:

Glad to be here for bright doses of the show that always satisfy-yi-yis. Strange days in personal circles...and I want NO MORE bad news for a long while. No more.

Avatar 1:16pm still b/p:

Mille grazie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:27pm Parq:

I wonder how long before those cubicle hotels are re-purposed into permanent residences as predicted in "Neuromancer".
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:28pm northguineahills:

Hmmmm, Scott Williams played that Elodie Lauten in 2013.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:31pm Charlie:

It's been played a bunch over the last ten years -- it's a hit!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:31pm Parq:

Love the way Kaplan's and Hubley's voices blend on this one.
