Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from June 21, 2018 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

I played this Dennis Wilson song and my wife hated it, but once it got more trad psyche new/agey BB, (the album it is), she mellowed out. (Love this album).

a lot of tonight's proceedings are based on past beach trips over the last decade or so, and there's hardly an album that looms larger than that one for us

I grew up going to sunset beach, quinn! love that place, with its sleepy little arcade
Avatar 7:52pm

yeah we take the boat over to Lookout sometimes, though we usually stop at Shackleford which is just one island over and track the wild horses there

If there are any radio nerds here, yo, I just got a Sony XDR-S10HDiP and it's amazing. I can pick up all kinds of stuff. I can get WFMU at both 91.1 and 91.9! And I don't even have a proper dipole antenna hooked up to it yet. Just a chain of paper clips!

Hi Brian! Hi Ike!
Avatar 8:40pm

Never had a Last Word, very very interested!
Avatar ♥ 8:41pm
hyde:

@Brian it's equal parts gin, maraschino liqueur, lime juice and green chartreuse. it's really dry and not at all sweet, but the balance of it is just right.
Avatar ♥ 8:46pm
βrian:

I dunno. Isn't the maraschino trademark held by the makers of Napalm? I forget.

Everything else sounds tasty, though.
Avatar 8:53pm

never heard that about maraschino, brian - interesting

melinda:

When I would order a Shirley Temple as a kid I remember my mom telling me not to eat the maraschino cherry, but I think it was because of the red dye, no mention of Napalm.
Avatar 9:06pm
Flash Strap:

maybe it was a napalm thing, you never know. happens all the time
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:07pm
coelacanth∅:

i used to know the son of the guy who invented maraschino cherries. i don't know if a big chemical company bought the rights to it but in the 80s he was still making a fortune off it; and napalm itself isn't owned by a specific company, though dow chemical made it for the us for their terrorist genocidal attacks on vietnam.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:09pm

Napalm!?! And here I thought oven cleaner was the secret ingredient in those little fuckers.

Hi Franco!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:13pm
coelacanth∅:

(actually i doubt the guy i knew's father invented them -though that's what he said. i think maybe he developed an inexpensive way to mass produce them, more likely)
