	♥ 4:15pm David D: Evening, Stanley!
	4:17pm Gary via app: I don’t remember this one — racy!
	4:17pm Parq: Wow, I forgot what great rhymes "Masochism Tango" has.
	♥ 4:19pm David D: He had rhymes that never existed.
	4:22pm northguineahills: It's bit damp here, got 14.5"s/368mm of rain in 24 hours, but only in my town, (most other places only got 3-5"s/76-127mm of rain).
	4:23pm Parq: You're up, Gary.
	4:24pm Gary via app: Yay!
	4:26pm Parq: 'Who's Next" next?
	4:32pm βrian: Huh. I always thought that was "Vatican 11."
	4:34pm northguineahills: Morgan Freeman was on the Electric Company.
	♥ 4:35pm David D: NGH: Yes, I always tell people that Morgan Freeman taught me to read. They have no idea what I'm talking about.
	♥ 4:36pm David D: βrian: Vatican 11: Coming soon to a cathedral near you.
	4:38pm Parq: Vatican 11 -- this time it's not Vatican 10
	♥ 4:38pm Webhamster Henry: Hi David! I've been undergoing oral surgery today, but I'll catch up because... Tom Lehrer is my spirit animal.
	4:39pm northguineahills: The Electric Company, not to be confused w/ Brad Laner's (also in the band Medicine) noisey electronic group. I pretty much only watch The Electric Company in syndication (not sure if I remember the first two years when it was still current).
	4:39pm northguineahills: (The first two years of my life).
	4:40pm northguineahills: Actually year, it only went to '77.
	♥ 4:41pm Webhamster Henry: If you want to get him mad at you, you can play Georg Kreisler's rip-off of "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" "Taubenvergiften im Park"
	4:41pm βrian: Lovely clatter.
	♥ 4:41pm Webhamster Henry: him = Prof. Lehrer
	♥ 4:43pm David D: Speedy recovery, Henry! Yes, I just talked all about the Kreisler controversy in fact. I guess he really liked the song.
	4:46pm northguineahills: Somehow missed this swans.
	♥ 4:49pm kuba: yay, swans! oh i know that concrete ball thing.
	♥ 4:49pm kuba: good evening dave & everyone
	♥ 4:51pm David D: Hey Kuba! Yes, it is a great bit of concrete, isn't it?
	♥ 4:54pm kuba: as an concrete enthusiast i must concur
	♥ 4:55pm kuba: always nice to finally hear something that you know only by reference (e.g. from the simpsons)
	♥ 5:03pm David D: Did the Simpsons also have a modern major-general?
	♥ 5:10pm kuba: well, that would be sideshow bob, i assume? my knowledge of this musical is limited
	♥ 5:14pm David D: Amanda would know.
	5:15pm northguineahills: Argggh, missed Senor Coconut commuting back to work.
	♥ 5:17pm kuba: oof polish uncally valley
	5:21pm northguineahills: I missed the simpsons reference, I can only think of the HMS Pinafore (but they constantly referenced and lampooned musicals, so, who knows).
	♥ 5:21pm David D: West Slavic will do that.
	♥ 5:22pm David D: NGH: Sounds about right.
	♥ 5:34pm kuba: whoops, i might have conflated that! that's what you get when you get your education from tv...
	♥ 5:37pm kuba: Today I Learned: these are two separate musicals! thank you and good night.
	5:41pm northguineahills: The jerusalem artichoke is native to the midwest of the US. The native americans spread it through much of North America. It was part of the Columbian Exchange, which is why it's popular in parts of Europe.
	5:42pm Scraps deSelby: Thirty years ago, I was really sad when I found out The Electric Company was cancelled years ago then. I assumed it was still on perpetually, it was so good... HOW could they let it be cancelled?? Etc
	5:43pm Scraps deSelby: Fargo North, Decoder! sigh....
	♥ 5:48pm David D: Scraps: Yes, only six seasons in fact - but then years of repeats in New York at least. I didn't even know it had been cancelled at my young age.
	♥ 5:48pm David D: Kuba: Speaking of education from TV - anyhow, good night over there!
	♥ 5:50pm David D: NGH: It has a weird marginal existence over here, actually. It can be made into schnapps and the like, not sure if a lot of people cook with them.
	5:51pm northguineahills: I think they rebooted the electric company about a decade ago. Never saw that one and have no idea if it's still on.
	5:57pm Scraps deSelby: I was of an age between the boomers and gen x, the birth trough that grew up in the seventies. So I was gifted with the first Sesama Street (I was five) and the first Electric Company; and I watched Scoolhouse Rock the first time on Saturday mornings.
	5:58pm Scraps deSelby: Sesama Street!
	♥ 6:00pm David D: Yes, it was Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, and then Electric Company, followed by Zoom (I think) - at least on WNET.
	6:02pm northguineahills: I missed this Eno/Hopkins/Abrahams until now. Quite nice!
	6:06pm Scraps deSelby: Didn’t like Zoom — it talked down to me, I felt. ;-) The seventies generation’s Mickey Mouse Club.
	6:07pm northguineahills: I thought it was around until the early 80s (Electric Company) until I read an article about the history of the show in the late 90s.
	6:08pm northguineahills: I have no idea what Zoom is.
	♥ 6:09pm David D: Scraps: I was never sure why I didn't want to watch Zoom, actually. You might have just explained it.
	6:10pm northguineahills: (But part of my belated bday gift [she messed up my address] from my wife included USPS Mr Rogers forever stamps)
	6:11pm Scraps deSelby: Mr Rogers Forever!
	♥ 6:12pm David D: Happy birthday, NGH! And enjoy those stamps - if anyone was ever deserving of that honor...
	♥ 6:13pm doctorjazz: Creepy! Ready to hit the road (Jack), thanks for the fine tunes, David! (Happy Birthday NGH!)
	6:14pm northguineahills: It was a little over two weeks ago, but just got the package. (never using the stamps) I probably liked the stamps then the other goodies I got. Thanks David and doctorjazz!
	♥ 6:14pm David D: Thanks, Doctorjazz! Have a good commute...
	6:14pm northguineahills: Wow, haven't heard this Thomas Brinkmann, and I have ton of his stuff....
	♥ 6:16pm David D: NGH: It's all atomic colors, or something. Antimony Yellow caught my eye, so to speak.
	♥ 6:33pm Webhamster Henry: ZOOM was like the Micky Mouse Club, CTW style. It was at its best with its ubbi-dubbi weather reports.
	♥ 6:39pm David D: Henry: Yes, I also liked the way they sang the Zip Code.
	6:45pm Scraps deSelby: Argh, I can still hear that 0, 2 1, 3 4! Even though I didn’t watch it much. At least, I think.
	6:45pm northguineahills: No such thing as too much Cecil!
	6:58pm northguineahills: Thanks David!
	♥ 7:00pm Webhamster Henry: 0-2-1-3-4! I just want to note that the cat enjoyed this Cecil Taylor very much.
	7:00pm northguineahills: Classic lineup!
	♥ 7:01pm David D: Thanks, NGH, Henry. Scraps and everyone - have a great week!
