1:20pm Heidee:

Hi mariano, how are you celebrating today?

1:21pm ami ad:

@Heidee:hehe,cheers.

1:22pm Handy Haversack:

Just had a beer, but I think I'm gonna walk in a bit. Also need caulk and cat food, so the dog and I have a mission. Will see if the Pulaski Bridge celebrated so hard it fell down or is still standing above the creek.

1:23pm davefromtoronto:

btw who's the dude with the ostrich feather hat and pearl earrings?

1:23pm ami ad:

@Handy:be careful out there,the pigs are on the loose it seems.

1:23pm WFMU listener john:

@ Handy oh hell yeah with the celebration
heidee just listening to the tunage

1:24pm fred:

@Handy: if the Pulaski came down the hoodie I'm wearing became an historical artefact

1:25pm Heidee:

Hi fred, how are you doing?

1:27pm fred:

Hi Heidee! Locked down and bored, but some recent news made it better. (Though I'm really worried my fave dance companies and bookshop will not survive this lockdown)

1:27pm Cooh John:

Nice show. I feel lighter too.

1:28pm common:

Cheers all!

1:28pm Handy Haversack:

Gah, thanks for the tip-off, ami. I'll keep my head on a swivel.

You have a Pulaski Bridge hoodie, fred? Too cool!

1:29pm KevinfromBayRidge:

Howdy Foolish Paradise. On non-St George' Satan Island at the moment. Not too many smiling faces....Cant imagine why.

1:29pm StringOFperils:

Is it still to soon to go nuts with relief? I think I need a beer.

1:30pm Heidee:

@fred, yes it is sad to see how this has such a strong effect on our cultural lives... but aren't we just so happy over here in 'the auld country' about the recent news!

1:31pm fred:

@Handy: Perks of long time WFMU addiction, what else can I say?

1:32pm WFMU listener john:

&Fred don’t want to get over this addiction

1:33pm ami ad:

@Heidee:How are you celebrating the results of this nation?

1:33pm mariano:

Hello Heidee. I just got back from a round of trolling on the Breitbart message boards, so much fun -- they are having one hell of a meltdown! What's up in your part of the world?

1:34pm Really Lisa:

I *knew there’s be a wing ding here!
Hi and hooray all!

1:35pm Heidee:

@ami ad & mariano: I think I'm just going to get happily drunk today.
Oh hi, Lisa!

1:35pm WFMU listener john:

@Marino did they throw you off

1:36pm fred:

@Handy: I actually have two. And a T-shirt too. And I've never even seen the bridge/skyway for real

1:36pm ami ad:

Pulaski skyway,and Pulaski bridge are not the same.

1:38pm ami ad:

@Heidee:sounds like a plan,i already started here.

1:38pm Cooh John:

Such a relief. We can return to the normal level of governmental dysfunction.

1:38pm Handy Haversack:

Ah, fred, we might have a terminology issue! I'm about to walk over the Pulaski Bridge, which spans Newtown Creek between Brooklyn and Queens, *not* the Pulaski Skyway, which spans the Passaic and Hackensack Rivers between Newark and JC.

1:38pm mariano:

WFMU listener john: Not yet, but not for lack of trying ;)

1:39pm Handy Haversack:

I was about to say, if WFMU had Pulaski Bridge swag that I missed, I was not going to be happy about it!

1:39pm RevComX:

Cautionary tales and country music seem like such a good fit

1:39pm StringOFperils:

@mariano > Sounds like good fun, but be careful about flogging the junkyard dog with a coat-hanger. That f***er's dangerous, and he hates everybody already.

1:40pm ami ad:

@Handy:Did you walk the new bridge?

1:41pm Sweet Corn Lizzie:

This is a beautiful love song.

1:41pm WFMU listener john:

@marino try harder;)

1:41pm Handy Haversack:

I haven't, ami! There's not really much at either end of it. I have paddled underneath it a lot, though.

1:42pm mariano:

SofP: I was forged in the belly of the beast* as one of the few leftists in a Southern Baptist high school in north Louisiana during the Regan years. This is old hat.

*Excuse the mixing of metaphors

1:42pm dave wuz here:

FREE HUGS FOR SAD TRUMPIES

1:43pm ami ad:

@Handy:I hear you,drove across many times,haven't walked it yet either.

1:44pm fred:

@Handy: Yeah, it's the skyway, not the bridge (I think) Though I'm no authority about it. I didn't even know there was a separate Pulaski bridge. (Idea for next year's marathon maybe?)

1:44pm hypothete:

Is Maudie Prickett the "A handbag?!" lady?

1:44pm ami ad:

out,demon out!

1:46pm WM:

liked the literary allusion in Little Black Bug.. Buddy Meredith must have read Kafka.

1:46pm Handy Haversack:

OK, No Brows! I'll be back before the end. Catch you soon!

🌮

1:47pm Mailman Tom:

Having a Hoedown here in the Nutmeg State!

1:49pm Heidee:

My brother just told me this: Why can't Trump go to the White House any longer? Because it is for-biden. :-)

1:50pm mariano:

WFMU John: gotta pace myself ;) Lol, Heidee!

1:50pm Really Lisa:

Hi Heidee :) Hi Rex and everyone.
Rex, I’ve been a listener from waaay before I knew there were playlists. Anyway I’m always driving when this awesome show airs.
Just popping on to chime in on the good cheer as the 4-yr dark cloud lifts today.
Cheers, all.

1:50pm StringOFperils:

@Heidee > LOL

1:52pm ami ad:

Heidee:heh.

1:52pm Rex:

Welcome aboard Really Lisa...happy to have you here in real time!

1:53pm ami ad:

@mariano:what's good? sun is shiny?

1:55pm ami ad:

drove trucks,never owned a car.

1:56pm Heidee:

When Lisa is here, I'll pair the woof with the moo. :-)

1:58pm ami ad:

@Heidee:Who's the cute doggie dog dog?

1:59pm Heidee:

ami ad, meet Ailsa the Bedlington-Whippt mix. She is a sweetheart and a clown.

2:00pm Heidee:

*Whippet (I can hardly see the letters against this blue background) :-)

🌮

2:01pm Mailman Tom:

One of the greatest horror movies ever made!

2:01pm ami ad:

Hello Alisa,looking good. woof woof moo.

2:01pm Michael 98145:

2:03pm Michael 98145:

We used to have Heidelberg brand beer around here

2:04pm Heidee:

Hi Michael, nice to meet you. Thanks! :-)

2:05pm Really Lisa:

It’s the woof to my moo 😁 Ailsa!

2:08pm ami ad:

Does Heidelberg beer have a bunch of fine print on it?

2:09pm Michael 98145:

heehee, no. i don't think it exists anymore.

2:10pm davefromtoronto:

whoopty burger?

2:11pm Heidee:

Lisa 😘 - How was your cycle today? I admire your 'out for a run', 'off on the bike' activities.
ami ad, heh heh I got that :-) TBH, I find the Heidelberger beer just a tad bland, I prefer the tangier ones from the north...

2:14pm Heidee:

All I'm off to is the dining room - my husband made some nice ratatouille which I am going to devour. See you later, folks!

2:15pm Heidee:

oh grey thanks!

2:16pm ami ad:

@Heidee:nice,enjoy. take care. cheers.

2:16pm Don F.:

Thanks for playin' Mailman Blues by Lloyd Price. One of my faves!

2:18pm ami ad:
