	🥁 ♥ 10:16pm chresti: It's a used car lot.
	🥁 ♥ 10:17pm coelacanth∅: that makes sense chresti (..."SAVE")
	♥ 10:18pm Franco Twinkie: I see Jack McCarty in the back round!
	♥ 10:18pm Sam Segal: Just singing along with Serengeti, @Jake. He was praising his hometown team.

	🥁 ♥ 10:22pm chresti: I know white cars were less expensive. Also I imagine the sun bleaches them out.@coel
	♥ 10:23pm ParUbi: Light cars would show rust quickly up north, what with the salt on the roads
	♥ 10:23pm Sam Segal: @Chris: Horses get dental, but no vision. Medical, but no retirement benefits to speak of.
	♥ 10:25pm Franco Twinkie: Fleep,no, I was an independent. If I had gone signatory, I would have been a forty four. But those motherfuckers couldn't catch me!
	🥁 ♥ 10:27pm doctorjazz: Ok, got in some exercise, hi folks!
	🥁 ♥ 10:28pm coelacanth∅: that all makes sense. when i was little we had 2 working cars. a 1957 bel air that apparently was light yellow at one time, but had faded. i cannot find one the same color on the web. and a black chrysler with mean eyes that we hated on hot days.
	♥ 10:28pm Sam Segal: Howdy, Doc! Exercise. One of the few things we have left. Glad you're taking advantage.
	🥁 ♥ 10:29pm doctorjazz: Love This!
	10:29pm Chris Farrell: If cats could think?! Boy that’s spinning a yarn your barn can’t catch.
	10:29pm JakeGould: Cars and sneakers in Los Angeles are pristine due to the weather.
	♥ 10:30pm Franco Twinkie: Doc, did you run around outside, or jump around at home?
	♥ 10:31pm TDK60: This Jose M. is sweetness.
	♥ 10:31pm Franco Twinkie: Jake, Chresti and I exceptions there.
	🥁 ♥ 10:31pm chresti: Jake, they get coated with dirt. Have to dust them often.
	♥ 10:32pm ParUbi: It's like those classic Cuban cars, no rust
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm chresti: Cars get rusty when they live at the beach.
	♥ 10:35pm Franco Twinkie: A friend of mine had a Michigan car. The floorboard was rusted out on the passenger side and I would drop coke bottles through the hole when we driving down the highway.
	10:36pm JakeGould: @Franco: I guess that’s why there was always an Indian shedding one tera by the side of the road when you drove by.
	♥ 10:36pm ParUbi: @Franco, yeah, a Flintstone car! I've been in a few!
	10:36pm Chris Farrell: It’s obvious “cat” and “dog” are acronyms. Care and think Do others good Besides allergies a cat and dog are both good! It’s all so simple I have seen the light @franco- that’s sweet it’s like an escape hatch.
	♥ 10:38pm Franco Twinkie: That is true Jake. What can I say? I had no manners as a teenager.
	🥁 ♥ 10:38pm coelacanth∅: (ejection seating works better)
	🥁 ♥ 10:39pm doctorjazz: El Gato, such fire in that tone!
	🥁 ♥ 10:39pm chresti: The desert is good for cars, as long as critters don't move in.
	♥ 10:40pm TDK60: Yeah, I lived briefly in Tucson eons ago. I was an east coaster and was surprised at the old cars.
	♥ 10:43pm Franco Twinkie: Chris, we were talking about that car recently, and my friend Michael said "I forgot about the hole in the floor, but I do remember driving it to California in winter and wondering why it was so cold despite the fact that I had the heater on full blast."
	♥ 10:49pm TDK60: ..it was 1971, I hitchhiked across Tucson, a spread-out city (like a lot of western cities). This old feller in an old car picked me up. The car looked like it was from '49 or '50 and the driver did too! Cowboy hat, suit jacket, tie, pistol strapped on his shirt! That ride was like being in 1949. And me a young longhair; what a trip.
	10:53pm Chris Farrell: I didn’t realize it got that cold in California. Mark Twain said the coldest winter he spent was a summer in San Francisco, but I just always assumed that’s because he was from the south (like the Deep South, like Corpus Christi or Shreveport). I tried swimming in the Pacific up by Monterrey during May and it brought me to shrieking. Gave my dad a good laugh and left me knowing where to go for a good ice bath.
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm chresti: TDK, how far did the old cowboy take you?
	🥁 ♥ 10:56pm chresti: Chris, that's why I like SF.
	♥ 10:59pm TDK60: Chresti, I forget exactly, probably from downtown out to the University area.
	11:05pm JakeGould: Breaking sad news… The co-founder (with his wife) of the Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn has passed away. May all of his dreams come true! youtu.be...
	♥ 11:09pm Franco Twinkie: TDK, The car with the vented floor broke down in the middle of an endless corn field in Southern Illinois. Since all are shit was in the car we decided I would stay back, while Michael hitched to the next town to find help. He was picked up by a guy in a pick-up that was a quilt of stolen parts. They were pulled over by the state troopers, and the driver was dragged away in handcuffs.The troopers told Michael there was a service station about a mile down the road, but wouldn't give him a ride. When he finally got back with a tow truck, that driver only had one arm. He fixed our car, and we were on are merry way, littering the highway with soda bottles all the way to Michigan.
	♥ 11:11pm TDK60: Ha Franco. I have more hitchhiking stories but they'll hafta wait. Night Sam and all you equus types.
	♥ 11:13pm Sam Segal: Sleep well, TDK!
	♥ 11:13pm Sam Segal: Sad news indeed, Jake. RIP John Kolle.
	11:14pm Chris Farrell: I hitchhiked out of a carnival I was working on when I was 20 and got a ride from a guy with Vegas license plates who was bald and drove a Land Rover. I think it was Dana White, the guy who owned UFC. I didn’t know it at the time but evidentially UFC is big in Seattle and that where this guy was headed. Wouldn’t surprise me given my luck on that trip. The guy I was with asked me if I thought it was “that UFC guy?” My response was shocked that my travel partner clearly did not know what Joe Rogan looked like. A side note skeptic perspective: hitchhikers have it easy, all I have to is ride. The driver takes on all the risk.
	🥁 ♥ 11:14pm chresti: Night TDK6o
	♥ 11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Nighty,TDK.
	♥ 11:16pm Sam Segal: Did Potential Dana White talk UFC with you, Chris?
	🥁 ♥ 11:16pm doctorjazz: Going to crash as well, night all!
	11:16pm JakeGould: More like Michael Halkias; John Kolle built it in 1892.
	♥ 11:20pm Sam Segal: Correction: RIP Michael Halkias, although my RIP John Kolle likely stands.
	♥ 11:22pm Sam Segal: Night, Doc!
	11:23pm Chris Farrell: To be honest I don’t remember. He might have? He did tell me to stay in school and not do drugs (or something to that effect). If he did allude to this being his identity it didn’t stick with me. It wasn’t till years later I had this realization when I saw him on a show where he talked about living in Las Vegas and traveling to Seattle a lot for business. So who nose!
	11:23pm JakeGould: True.
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm chresti: Thanks Sam, taking you to the shower with me.
	11:29pm Chris Farrell: I’m getting ghosted by a girl so this rant is making me feel soooo much better. About that..
	♥ 11:31pm Franco Twinkie: Well Sam, Is that any worse than watching Bonanza at your moms house and falling asleep on the sofa? That was my big outing on Sunday.
	11:34pm Chris Farrell: @Franco- Is Bonanza better than Hee Haw? Or are they too different to compare?
	♥ 11:34pm Franco Twinkie: Antonia also said this: "Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will." That guy was a major dude, no?
	♥ 11:36pm Sam Segal: Gramsci was an all time dude! Spent a lot of time in prison. He'd know a thing or two about the lockdown blues.
	♥ 11:37pm Sam Segal: @Franco: An outing to another person's home does sound truly wild to me at this point!
	11:37pm JakeGould: The weird thing for me is I have always forced myself to avoid doing what my parents — World War II survivors — did was live in fear, only go shopping, worry about food and somewhat agoraphobic at times. Now, I guess I have to adapt their behavior that I have shaken to now just deal with this crap while not losing my mind.
	♥ 11:42pm Franco Twinkie: Chris, Not even the same planet. Hee Haw was a musical variety show shot on video with less that zero production values. Bonanza was shot on film and looked like an old John ford western. Both had moronic pretend country dialogue.
	11:45pm Chris Farrell: Yeah I googled Bonanza. My brother has developed country roots and for sure watches Hee Haw but could possibly also watch Bonanza. I’m starting the movie Taxi Driver right now which I have never seen. I’m also halfway through “The Wrecking Crew” a documentary on YouTube about studio musicians.
	♥ 11:50pm Franco Twinkie: Chris: " You talkin' to me? Well there's no one else here."
	♥ 11:52pm Sam Segal: Let us know what you think of Taxi Driver, Chris. I saw it for the first time semi-recently and I loved it.
	11:54pm Chris Farrell: I’m gonna get into this movie, Night folk! My last quip of the night: quarantine = content appreciation month
	🥁 ♥ 11:55pm coelacanth∅: i laughed at hee haw as a child... not at the jokes on hee haw, but at hee haw itself. i laughed that anyone existed that would think those jokes were funny. but i still watched it sometimes -probably because nothing else was on at the time; but also because it had some excellent music. we made fun of people who liked country music yet i always had some degree of attraction to Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, bluegrass in general...and some early country pop, like John Denver and Lynn Anderson... i'd probably like that show more now.
	🥁 ♥ 11:56pm coelacanth∅: ...and bonanza had Bobby Sherman, as "jeremy".
	♥ 12:00am Franco Twinkie: I hung out with Okies when I was a kid, and their folks liked twangy music. I just thought in was something white people liked and never gave it any more thought than that.
	🥁 ♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: correction: Bobby Sherman was on "here come the brides". never mind.
	♥ 12:02am Franco Twinkie: I am.
	🥁 ♥ 12:02am coelacanth∅: haha Franco... not these "white" people! (i love it now though - but i'm very particular)
	♥ 12:03am Franco Twinkie: I loved The Dead when they went 'Bakersfield."
	🥁 ♥ 12:03am coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam! good night everyone stay strong
	12:04am fleep: Thanks, Sam!
	🥁 ♥ 12:04am chresti: Good night!
	♥ 12:05am Franco Twinkie: Thanky, Sam!
	🥁 ♥ 1:46am WR: Thank you Sam. Enjoyed the program. Didn't have time to get to keyboard until now. Cheers.

	♥ 11:13pm Sam Segal: Sleep well, TDK!
	♥ 11:13pm Sam Segal: Sad news indeed, Jake. RIP John Kolle.
	11:14pm Chris Farrell: I hitchhiked out of a carnival I was working on when I was 20 and got a ride from a guy with Vegas license plates who was bald and drove a Land Rover. I think it was Dana White, the guy who owned UFC. I didn’t know it at the time but evidentially UFC is big in Seattle and that where this guy was headed. Wouldn’t surprise me given my luck on that trip. The guy I was with asked me if I thought it was “that UFC guy?” My response was shocked that my travel partner clearly did not know what Joe Rogan looked like. A side note skeptic perspective: hitchhikers have it easy, all I have to is ride. The driver takes on all the risk.
	🥁 ♥ 11:14pm chresti: Night TDK6o
	♥ 11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Nighty,TDK.
	♥ 11:16pm Sam Segal: Did Potential Dana White talk UFC with you, Chris?
	🥁 ♥ 11:16pm doctorjazz: Going to crash as well, night all!
	11:16pm JakeGould: More like Michael Halkias; John Kolle built it in 1892.
	♥ 11:20pm Sam Segal: Correction: RIP Michael Halkias, although my RIP John Kolle likely stands.
	♥ 11:22pm Sam Segal: Night, Doc!
	11:23pm Chris Farrell: To be honest I don’t remember. He might have? He did tell me to stay in school and not do drugs (or something to that effect). If he did allude to this being his identity it didn’t stick with me. It wasn’t till years later I had this realization when I saw him on a show where he talked about living in Las Vegas and traveling to Seattle a lot for business. So who nose!
	11:23pm JakeGould: True.
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm chresti: Thanks Sam, taking you to the shower with me.
	11:29pm Chris Farrell: I’m getting ghosted by a girl so this rant is making me feel soooo much better. About that..
	♥ 11:31pm Franco Twinkie: Well Sam, Is that any worse than watching Bonanza at your moms house and falling asleep on the sofa? That was my big outing on Sunday.
	11:34pm Chris Farrell: @Franco- Is Bonanza better than Hee Haw? Or are they too different to compare?
	♥ 11:34pm Franco Twinkie: Antonia also said this: "Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will." That guy was a major dude, no?
	♥ 11:36pm Sam Segal: Gramsci was an all time dude! Spent a lot of time in prison. He'd know a thing or two about the lockdown blues.
	♥ 11:37pm Sam Segal: @Franco: An outing to another person's home does sound truly wild to me at this point!
	11:37pm JakeGould: The weird thing for me is I have always forced myself to avoid doing what my parents — World War II survivors — did was live in fear, only go shopping, worry about food and somewhat agoraphobic at times. Now, I guess I have to adapt their behavior that I have shaken to now just deal with this crap while not losing my mind.
	♥ 11:42pm Franco Twinkie: Chris, Not even the same planet. Hee Haw was a musical variety show shot on video with less that zero production values. Bonanza was shot on film and looked like an old John ford western. Both had moronic pretend country dialogue.
	11:45pm Chris Farrell: Yeah I googled Bonanza. My brother has developed country roots and for sure watches Hee Haw but could possibly also watch Bonanza. I’m starting the movie Taxi Driver right now which I have never seen. I’m also halfway through “The Wrecking Crew” a documentary on YouTube about studio musicians.
	♥ 11:50pm Franco Twinkie: Chris: " You talkin' to me? Well there's no one else here."
	♥ 11:52pm Sam Segal: Let us know what you think of Taxi Driver, Chris. I saw it for the first time semi-recently and I loved it.
	11:54pm Chris Farrell: I’m gonna get into this movie, Night folk! My last quip of the night: quarantine = content appreciation month
	🥁 ♥ 11:55pm coelacanth∅: i laughed at hee haw as a child... not at the jokes on hee haw, but at hee haw itself. i laughed that anyone existed that would think those jokes were funny. but i still watched it sometimes -probably because nothing else was on at the time; but also because it had some excellent music. we made fun of people who liked country music yet i always had some degree of attraction to Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, bluegrass in general...and some early country pop, like John Denver and Lynn Anderson... i'd probably like that show more now.
	🥁 ♥ 11:56pm coelacanth∅: ...and bonanza had Bobby Sherman, as "jeremy".
	♥ 12:00am Franco Twinkie: I hung out with Okies when I was a kid, and their folks liked twangy music. I just thought in was something white people liked and never gave it any more thought than that.
	🥁 ♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: correction: Bobby Sherman was on "here come the brides". never mind.
	♥ 12:02am Franco Twinkie: I am.
	🥁 ♥ 12:02am coelacanth∅: haha Franco... not these "white" people! (i love it now though - but i'm very particular)
	♥ 12:03am Franco Twinkie: I loved The Dead when they went 'Bakersfield."
	🥁 ♥ 12:03am coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam! good night everyone stay strong
	12:04am fleep: Thanks, Sam!
	🥁 ♥ 12:04am chresti: Good night!
	♥ 12:05am Franco Twinkie: Thanky, Sam!
	🥁 ♥ 1:46am WR: Thank you Sam. Enjoyed the program. Didn't have time to get to keyboard until now. Cheers.
