	3:02pm V Priceless: Hey Ir
	3:06pm P-90: "Manager, Neutron Products" is my fave, but "Pulverizing Machinery" is close
	3:07pm Laura L: If you click on the picture of the business cards, you won't set off an atomic bomb....
	🎸 ♥ 3:10pm rrg: I did that, Laura. A well-deserved plug. And I'm still here to tell it.
	♥ 3:10pm Irwin: The cards are from a new book designed and published by Laura (Blast Books).
	3:11pm Laura L: Thank you! This is an interesting read too... http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/01/the-business-cards-that-made-the-bomb/424278/
	🎸 ♥ 3:16pm rrg: C'mon, you don't have to spell it "Jarby Mc Coy", do you? Unless he told you that it should be spelled that way, it's a mistake.
	3:16pm P-90: Just read the New Yorker piece. I'm gonna need this book now.

	🎸 ♥ 3:22pm Alison Porchnik: Hey Joe Frank fans, just so you know, Joe is home from the hospital but the expenses are already adding up fast: nursing, PT, meds, IV nutrition, equipment, and this will continue. He can still use your help - every bit counts! tinyurl.com...
	3:24pm Listener Robert: Did it ever say on that Facebook what his current diagnosis was?
	3:27pm jarby Mc Coy: Sorry rrg but he does it well

	🎸 ♥ 3:34pm Alison Porchnik: This is an amazing song
	♥ 3:36pm Irwin: Sparrow's a genius. He transcends genre.
	3:39pm Carmichael: That's a sweet book, Laura. Way to go.
	🎸 ♥ 3:40pm Alison Porchnik: Brian! Best cover ever.

	4:19pm P-90: This is Joe at his most melancholy. I'm cringing. He's that good.
	♥ 4:19pm Mike East: Hey Irwin, hope you are well. Have you heard or played Joe Frank's "Redneck Rounder"? A friend just recommended it to me today. I think wnyc must have played it recently.
	♥ 4:20pm Mike East: looks like a Work in Progress episode.

	♥ 4:31pm Irwin: I just don't enjoy them. They almost always sound contrived.
	4:33pm P-90: Joe might get a kick out of knowing that a link to his fund is posted online here, right "under the Los Alamos Rolodex cards."
	♥ 4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the writing, voice, presentation - I'm reminded of what somebody said about Hendrix (of all comparisons) - Joe Frank is the Founder of a School no one else has Graduated from...
	4:39pm P-90: "...a Dear Clown letter..."
	4:44pm Anonymous coward: hey Irwin, do you go back and scrub the Joe Frank listings from old playlists?

	5:03pm Listening Out There: 2016 is the Year of the Bush in the Poop...speaking Jebwise, o' course...
	5:07pm V Priceless: Yay Mott! RIP Buffin
	♥ 5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Jeez ya used ta hear Mott all the time...
	5:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: What V Priceless said! This particular song is my MtheH fave. Escher album cover wasn't bad either. Thanks Mr Chusid.
