	10:36pm prof.fuzz: Evening y’all!
	10:39pm ktmwq: Whoa. Mr. Kite.
	10:40pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:34 Probably a wig that Zipperdawg dragged to the front of the building and tried to eat. I thought it was some kind of dead animal at first
	10:41pm northguineahills: here, but studying, i don't even have time for recreational reading this week...
	10:42pm coelacanth∅: olá proffuzzzzzz
	10:42pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:40 I did see a pair of gold high heeled shoes lying between the tracks at the Columbus Circle A train
	10:44pm StringOFperils: I think I have this Maps record....the past is in such disarray...
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: hmm...wig might be weirder
	10:44pm prof.fuzz: Howdy Coel!
	10:45pm StringOFperils: Wig's on the front of the train, coel
	10:45pm coelacanth∅: that maps wasn't swell but it was good
	10:46pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:44 A friend found a prosthetic arm on a Bronx sidewalk. He speculated that it had been used as a club
	10:47pm StringOFperils: Armed and dangerous
	10:48pm planetjulie: this set is off the charts
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:46 i once found a prosthetic leg in a dumpster in jacksonville. but, later, i found out the dumpster was behind a prosthetic shop, so, not so strange...
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Hippie" by "The Suzannes" haven't heard the suzannes in a while....
	10:51pm coelacanth∅: sometimes garbage is bizarre because it's garbage ie my girlfriend and i found a perfectly good piece of thick copper sheeting, maybe 18" X 7-8' long on the sidewalk in westfiel nj (1999) -an upper-middleclass community. i curled it so to fit in a 6' volvo wagon bed and she made all kinds of things with it
	10:52pm coelacanth∅: StringO hahaha ...okay i think the prosthetic arm gets more bizarre yet
	10:52pm TroyD8: ↳ Song: "Hippie" by "The Suzannes" Great set!
	10:56pm prof.fuzz: Digging Doomed on Planet Earth!!!
	10:56pm northguineahills: I have a friend who had an electro-pop band called, Something in Spanish. It made for some great conversation starters. ("wanna go see something in spanish?")
	10:56pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:51 Was that the girlfriend who was asked if she was Mariah Carey, even though she was driving a rustbucket Tercel?
	10:57pm coelacanth∅: working as the handyman for a bar (2002) i got to see lots of things left behind from the night before (if i got there before the cleaning crew) all kinds of underwear, shirts, hoodies, a nice leather jacket, a pair of crutches, poetry, cd walkmans, un-opened food, pipes, a bong etc
	10:59pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey everyone!
	10:59pm coelacanth∅: Zipper ha, yeah! she was a jewelry maker, among other things. she made some earrings and such with that copper, but also a beautiful dragonfly-shaped (that was my idea) letter opener as a gift for someone
	10:59pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Sara A and all!!!
	11:02pm rw: Last year I was walking down the street in Riverside, CA with my girlfriend and just as she said, "Riverside's actually kind of nice" I looked down and saw this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fvzk5w41v5o6hvl/Untitled-1.jpg?dl=0
	11:02pm Zipperhead7: A friend stole a great sign from a construction site: "Caution: Steel Erection in progress. Do not enter! Employees only"
	11:03pm rw: Ha! Do Not Enter
	11:04pm TroyD8: ↳ Song: "What A Day" by "Pentaject Corporation" This would pear nicely with a Throbbing Gristle-What A Day youtu.be...
	11:06pm Zipperhead7: ↳ rw @11:02 That's real nice. I guess the owner of the dentures tried to bite into the loaf and just gave up.
	11:06pm coelacanth∅: rw i see bread and teeth. were you hungry?
	11:06pm Sara A: wooo hi everyone !! still here
	11:06pm coelacanth∅: hey Will!
	11:06pm Sara A: ↳ TroyD8 @11:04 lol
	11:07pm coelacanth∅: haha Zipp!
	11:07pm rw: coel, and a box of condoms!
	11:07pm rw: Hungry and horny.
	11:09pm Zipperhead7: ↳ rw @11:07 Yeah, that really ices the cake. I assume there's a link between all of those objects but would rather not think about it
	11:11pm rw: Z7, agreed.
	11:12pm coelacanth∅: food always makes me horny. ...wait no, sex always makes me hungry... whatever. they go together! ...i hadn't identified that package ...
	11:14pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "Marin" by "Sound Force" The woman on the cover looks a lot like Patty Hearst
	11:15pm TroyD8: Sounds great from here!
	11:15pm coelacanth∅: and the bat looks like that "moth" in my bathroom
	11:16pm rw: Haha. Bring that moth some cashmere!
	11:17pm northguineahills: ↳ rw @11:02 carnis et coitus interriptus? wait, that doesn't quite work....
	11:19pm coelacanth∅: funny you should say that rw i walked in there with a cashmere sweater on and walked out topless. "no" wasn't an option.
	11:23pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:19 I did a Danny Thomas-style spit take when i read this
	11:23pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:19 when mothra gets trapped in your closet....
	11:24pm prof.fuzz: Oh. Hey! AK47!
	11:25pm coelacanth∅: aww, batmoth's just misunderstood
	11:33pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The Badge Means You Suck" by "AK-47" i didn't notice (but i never hear lyrics anyways)
	11:33pm rw: Sara, thank you for posting the record covers!
	11:33pm coelacanth∅: i believe the safe harbour still (again) begins at 10
	11:34pm Will thee Sound Guy: I keep closing my eyes, I'll still be listening
	11:34pm northguineahills: (paradoxically when they are in english)
	11:34pm northguineahills: ↳ rw @11:33 what rw said....
	11:34pm northguineahills: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:34 just don't close your ears, Thee!
	11:37pm prof.fuzz: The guy who wrote the lyrics to the AK-47 song was a reporter who covered the Houston police beat. He was in the room when a police admin lost it over the song. Most of the other reporters knew he was the lyricist and singer but no one ratted him out. HPD tried to sue but the band members all used aliases and were never served court papers. The suit was eventually dropped. I had my mind blown by AK-47 on Halloween 1981. Great band.
	11:38pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:33 Yep, you can get as indecent on the air as you want, Sara!
	11:39pm rw: Whoa. Crazy story, prof.
	11:41pm rw: But how did the cops know about the song? It seems pretty esoteric. Maybe there was a buzz about it in town?
	11:42pm rw: Actually... now that I re-read the title of the song... I'm guessing that tipped someone off.
	11:42pm prof.fuzz: The single was available in a couple of local shops. I had a copy. Not sure who tipped them off to it though.
	11:44pm prof.fuzz: The song title was a spoof of the HPD slogan/bumper sticker: The Badge Means You Care. The lyrics riff on that slogan too.
	11:44pm northguineahills: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:37 just looked up the lyics. i'm now an ak-47 fan...
	11:46pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind" by "SST" SST!
	11:47pm Zipperhead7: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:44 HPD were real sweethearts, notorious for dumping bodies in Buffalo Bayou. Some off-duty cops blew up the tower of Houston's Pacifica station in the late '60s.
	11:47pm northguineahills: so far, i've only heard of 12 bands, this might be a new wfmu record for me!
	11:47pm coelacanth∅: i like that story especially because it has a happy ending!
	11:48pm prof.fuzz: AK-47 just released an album with all of the band’s recorded output. Includes the Badge single, an album recorded in 1981 but only released digitally a couple of years ago, and two new songs. Well worth checking out.
	11:49pm Sara A: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:37 woah that's an amazing story! i had no idea
	11:49pm Zipperhead7: ↳ northguineahills @11:47 You're doing better than me, ngh. I haven't heard of any of these folks before, except for AK-47
	11:50pm prof.fuzz: Zip: Yup. Also see Really Red’s “Teaching You the Fear” for another indictment of HPD’s infamous brutality.
	11:50pm coelacanth∅: Zipper the fucc changes the rules often and keeps them vague but last i knew there were 2 time, and 2 definitions... "obscenity" and "indecency". so between 10 & 12 Sara may be obscene but not indecent; then Herweg may be indecent, but still could be fined for it.
	11:51pm LaVa LaTweme: Your show is 🔥🔥🔥‼️
	11:53pm planetjulie: hit after hit!!!!!!
	11:54pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:50 It gets confusng. But don't even think about blasphemy, ever!
	11:57pm northguineahills: woah, it's almost midnight! thanks, sara! have a great night everyone!
	11:57pm prof.fuzz: Great show!
	11:58pm rw: Thank you Sara! Nice one (as always).
	11:58pm Zipperhead7: Lotsa work playing all those short records. Thanx, Sara!
	12:00am coelacanth∅: hmmm it "clit" fcc-friendly if it's misspelled?! body parts are naughty ...the fucc's jealous because they don't have any
	12:00am coelacanth∅: (is) Thanks Sara!
	12:01am planetjulie: great episode

	11:46pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind" by "SST" SST!
	11:47pm Zipperhead7: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:44 HPD were real sweethearts, notorious for dumping bodies in Buffalo Bayou. Some off-duty cops blew up the tower of Houston's Pacifica station in the late '60s.
	11:47pm northguineahills: so far, i've only heard of 12 bands, this might be a new wfmu record for me!
	11:47pm coelacanth∅: i like that story especially because it has a happy ending!
	11:48pm prof.fuzz: AK-47 just released an album with all of the band’s recorded output. Includes the Badge single, an album recorded in 1981 but only released digitally a couple of years ago, and two new songs. Well worth checking out.
	11:49pm Sara A: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:37 woah that's an amazing story! i had no idea
	11:49pm Zipperhead7: ↳ northguineahills @11:47 You're doing better than me, ngh. I haven't heard of any of these folks before, except for AK-47
	11:50pm prof.fuzz: Zip: Yup. Also see Really Red’s “Teaching You the Fear” for another indictment of HPD’s infamous brutality.
	11:50pm coelacanth∅: Zipper the fucc changes the rules often and keeps them vague but last i knew there were 2 time, and 2 definitions... "obscenity" and "indecency". so between 10 & 12 Sara may be obscene but not indecent; then Herweg may be indecent, but still could be fined for it.
