Listener comments!

🥁

8:31am duke:

Can you send that dog over to clear my driveway?

8:33am Doug Schulkind:

Have your numnums ready, duke, and she'll be right over.

8:41am Uncle Michael:

Rufus Thomas is shoveling my drive.

8:43am Doug Schulkind:

Hmmm, should I play Rufus' "Walk the Dog"?

8:43am Uncle Michael:

Too late. He's not our dog no more.

8:44am glenn:

happy v.d.

8:44am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
The have medicine for that now.

8:46am Jeff Golick:

She missed a spot...

Dropping by early to wish everyone a happy show day - I will be field-tripping for the morning, and straight trippin' (i.e., having lunch) with my wife later on.

See you in the ark-hives!

8:46am glenn:

so that nigerian guy keeps telling me. did you sell him my email address?

8:50am Doug Schulkind:

Have a lovely, romantic trip to White Castle, Jeff Golick!

8:51am Uncle Michael:

Buy 'em by the sack!

8:55am Doug Schulkind:

Although I hear now that White Castle buns have the same "yoga mat" chemical in them that Subway bread has. I mean really. Is nothing sacred?

8:57am Gary:

I'm too hypnotized by that dog to come up with a funny greeting

8:58am Doug Schulkind:

My plan is working, Gary, mwahhaha!

8:58am glenn:

yoga mat bread. not covered here. www.artisanbakers.com

8:59am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

9:00am glenn:

the pooch does seem to be enjoying himself.

9:00am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
I think I detest the word "artisanal" more than any other in the English language.

Morning ndbob!

9:02am glenn:

really? i think empowered is the one i hate the most.

9:03am lucy in brooklyn:

valentine morning to you!

🥁

9:04am listener james from westwood:

"incentivize" and its bastard offspring "incent" (v) are the aural equivalent for me of catching a hangnail on a sweater.
morning, doug, and all!! we are in melting and sloshing-thru-slush mode in the sunny NYC area!

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

I am suddenly inspired to become a "life coach" and call my company, Artisanal Empowerment.

♥s to you in Brooklyn, Lucy!!

9:05am Doug Schulkind:

High and dry greetings to you, Listener James!

9:06am Alex In Illinois:

My dog would clear the snow too, if the snow were made out of schmaltz or some other animal fat.

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

If it were, Alex, that would be some kind of horrible environmental disaster. Unless it was bacon fat. That would fine.

🥁

9:09am duke:

I hate the words monetization and monitize

9:12am glenn:

the love of monetization is the root of all evilocity.

9:13am Uncle Michael:

Schmaltzopolyse! Matzo ball fight!

9:13am glenn:

my uncle was an auctioneer and a square dance caller. he could talk REAL fast.

9:14am jeff g on-the-go:

I can't stand a certain use of "grow" -- e.g., "Doug, how do you plan to grow this Artisanal Empowerment company?"

9:14am Uncle Michael:

I mis-pelled schmaltzopolypse.

9:15am Alex In Illinois:

For me, it is not so much the words themselves, as their misuse. People should learn the meaning of the word "penultimate" before using it. The word "invite" is a verb, not a noun. The noun is "invitation". "Fail" is a verb, not a noun. The noun is "Failure". "Bad" is adjective, not a noun. "Fault" or "mistake" are the nouns that should follow the word "my" when admitting culpability.

9:16am Uncle Michael:

schmaltz-pacolypse?

9:16am Gary:

Deliverables. Around that. Socialize. Circle back to. Leverage. Constituents. Professionalism. I can think of two, three dozen other words and phrases that make me cringe whenever my co-workers (or I) write or say them, but it's a day off for me and I'd rather think about other things. Like the earth covered in bacon fat

9:17am Uncle Michael:

The verbing of nouns is as old as the language.

9:17am glenn:

and he could rock a tartan sports coat, too. images.ourontario.ca...

9:17am Doug Schulkind:

Schmaltzopolypse is my new favorite word in the English language.

🥁

9:18am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug & chums

politician is a word that sticks in my craw. That & chill out.

9:18am glenn:

isn't it sort of bastard yiddish, though?

9:19am jeff g on-the-go:

What @Alex said. Also, for me, it is and forever will be a blog post. The individual, dated entry itself? Not "a blog." Sorry, Roger Angell.

🥁

9:21am Brian in UK:

Love the present tense in this title.

9:21am Doug Schulkind:

@jeff g on-the-go
No one speaks sharply to Roger Angell on this show. NO ONE! (Sorry I yelled.)

Hello Brian in the UK! I hear you met our dear Brother Sherratt recently!

9:24am glenn:

by the way, drummer, i see you'll no longer have a.j. burnette to kick around. he's gone to the phillies.

🥁

9:25am Brian in UK:

Yes Doug, it was a darkened room in norf Lunnon with a man called Holley verbalising. Seems like a good egg.

9:26am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
A.J. came on Pittsburgh sports radio promising it was the Pirates or retirement. I'm not going after the biggest contract, he said, that's not what I'm about.

He was fine for the Pirates when the Yankees were still paying most of his salary. Philly will learn to revile him.

9:26am Alex In Illinois:

I think someone should create a chatterbot every year that uses the most overused words of the year as a linguistic time capsule.

@Uncle Michael: But I was refering to the nouning of verbs, and a few other things.

9:27am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
Right, at the Lonnie Holley show! Fine gentle men all 'round.

9:27am Alex In Illinois:

But don't worry, I did get it. (verbing as an example).

9:27am glenn:

well, that 3.99 career e.r.a. makes that pretty much wheat in the bin, to quote damon runyon.

9:36am glenn:

so none of that rage, rage stuff for you, doug?

9:38am Doug Schulkind:

I'm all the rage, glenn.

9:39am Alex In Illinois:

Speaking of years and 19xx vs. 20xx, Pretty soon, it will be the centennial of the start of the First World War. But what I really want to celibrate soon is 200 years of peace with Britain

9:40am glenn:

isn't there a mommy blog called rage against the minivan?

9:41am glenn:

un case you needed to have the coldness confirmed - www.theglobeandmail.com...

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

@Alex in Illinois
That would be sometime in the mid-2160s. Two hundred years after The British Invasion.

🥁

9:44am Brian in UK:

Love the way this track sounds as if it is about to fall over

9:44am Gary:

@glenn ... wow, that's impressive. That said, New York felt warm outside when I went out to get my GF a treat for this morning. (Shhh, she's still asleep.)

9:46am Hugo:

A cumbia! Luvly!

9:47am Hugo:

Lost in space?

🥁

9:47am Brian in UK:

Me I loves an arctic vortex. Let's vortext.

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

Falling over is in the inner-ear of the listener, methinks, Brian in UK!

Howdy Hugo!

9:47am Doug Schulkind:

This next song is to celebrate Valentin's Day.

9:49am Shaun:

If that dog can fill a sandbag get him on the next boat. Hi Doug, hi everyone.

9:50am Doug Schulkind:

I hope your aren't swamped, Shaun. The photos have looked miserable.

🥁

9:51am Brian in UK:

Hello Shaun. I meant to ask you what you thought of Bill Callahan's drummer. Personally, loved his creativity behind that Ringo kit.

9:53am still b/p:

¡Perdido in Espacio!
¡Advertencia! Advertencia, Will Robinsin! ¡Peligro!

Buenas dias.

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

¡Hola, still b/p!

🥁

9:54am βrian:

Relatively benign skies over the isthmus today. Best wishes for all of you in Slush Land.

9:55am Holly in NC:

My bugaboo = "reach out" . UGH.

I love the shoveling Shepherd, I need to teach the 2 at my side to do that! Tree down in driveway, trapped, but it's a lovely day.

9:59am Shaun:

@Doug I'm on the Eastern side of the country - they've got it worst at the taps end. @BitU Really loved the Callahan drums but my hands hurt in sympathy.(I'd love the bass player's job, btw. Holding one or two notes a bar *and* sitting down? Dream gig).

10:00am cd tap:

hmm, that dog is talented but seems to lack focus. Seems like he'll be as "helpful" as my son was yesterday..... (he lost my favorite snow shovel, dammit)

10:01am Gary:

Awww

10:01am glenn:

i don't know. i think bodega pop is at least sublemon.

10:02am Gary:

www.sublemon.com

10:03am KevinfromBayRidge:

Morning to all, from(for several climatologically strategic weeks) the only state without any White Shite. Plenty o' other shite tho!

10:03am Uncle Michael:

What do you know about the Bolton Brothers? This female singer sounds just like Marsha Gee of "Peanut Duck" fame.

10:04am glenn:

i had no idea, gary.

10:05am Doug Schulkind:

@cd tap
I BROKE my favorite snow shovel, a heavy metal battleaxe that laughed at crusted ice. Now all I have is a foolish plastic shovel and there are no more shovels to buy in Western Pennsylvania. A disaster.

GREETINGS to you, KevinfromBayRidge!

🥁

10:09am βrian:

We've been blessed with mysterious snow fairies who come and clear our sidewalk at some ungodly early hour. There are several suspects, but we've never caught them in the act.

10:10am Doug Schulkind:

Merry Isthmus, βrian!

10:10am Andy S.:

King Floyd! Yesterday (2/13) would have been his 69th birthday. Sadly, he died in 2006 from complications of a stoke and diabetes.

10:11am holland oats:

greezy drumma! peoples!

10:12am glenn:

(secret shovelling tip. don't tell anyone) -turning your shovel over will give you better results.. angle of attack, or something like that.

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome aboard, Andy S! King Floyd died so damn young. I fucking hate this death thing.

Good morning holland oats!

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of dying young... Baby Huey.

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

Twenty-fucking-six. As my dear wife says, death is unacceptable.

Speaking of my dear wife, tomorrow is HER birthday.

10:18am cd tap:

hey, tomorrow is also my mom's birthday. Happy!

🥁

10:18am listener james from westwood:

pls convey my happy day-before-birthday to the missus and the mom alike!

10:19am at cpd:

what the? my nickname didn't change...something is terribly wrong...

10:19am at cpd:

there that's better.

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Will do, LJFW!

@dc pat
Speaking of moms, would you mind hoofing it over to Bethesda to dig out mine?

10:21am earrie:

I'm w/ lJfW in the super greetings.

Morning and happy Lo-ove day.

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

Warmest welcome to you, earrie!

10:23am epistrophy:

Baby Huey and the Babysitters were terrific live -- saw them whenever I could at Chicago-area "teen clubs" in the late '60s.

10:24am at cpd:

it's all ice this morning Drummer Some. It's expected to reach the lower 40's today so she'll melt out eventually...

🥁

10:24am βrian:

Love that Wieya boom-boom.

10:25am still b/p:

I shoveled last night, but this morning at the curb where I'd cleared wide access for the mail carrier, I see the city plow has left a formidable pile of wet and heavy blockage. And heavy is my heart.

10:27am at cpd:

that snow is heavy for sure--my lower back is sore today.

10:27am Hugo:

I love to be beside the seaside ...

🥁

10:29am βrian:

@Hugo: Say, your avatar is orange, too!

10:30am Doug Schulkind:

Wow, epistrophy. Just, wow!

10:30am earrie:

D-sides are where artists forgo all the constraints of musical structure.

10:32am Doug Schulkind:

I love the cover art on Billy May's "Big Fat Brass": www.recordsale.de...

10:32am Hugo:

Not much snow here on the west coast of somewhere in Europe. Rainy, mild, snow only stays for a few days or so ...

The chap on the pic goes under the name of Apricozy. Loves fishing boats ...

10:33am Michael:

Digging this right now!

10:35am Hugo:

Drought in California, snow in the US south, flooding in the UK, bushfires in Oz. We live in interesting times ...

10:35am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
There is a huge pothole (crater) on our street just a few feet from where I park right in front of our house. The driver's side of our car gets Jackson Pollocked every day with the salty-sandy slush that cars splash onto it when they hit the pothole. I literally have to wash down the side window to see out of it. It was amusing for the first few days. Now I just cry inside. (Of course, I could park somewhere else, but NO!)

Howdy Michael!

🥁

10:35am duke:

Anything with Hamid Drake is good with me.

10:36am Lewis:

Ok - the little doggie is getting a bit frantic for my frame of mind… suppose I will just scroll down the list...

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

@duke
Lucky for us, Mr Drake is a prolific mofo.

10:37am at cpd:

Do yinz use chairs to protect your parking space in Squirrel Hill?

10:39am earrie:

If only politicians had several ounces more science under their hats..

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Lewis
Sorry to harsh your mellow.

@at cpd
The chair thing is a tradition in Pittsburgh, though I have seen some people putting chairs out to protect spaces that were never even dug out. #lame

10:40am glenn:

then the right wing would fall apart, earrie.

10:41am Lewis:

@doug, not a problem, followed my own advice and equilibrium has been restored!

10:43am Doug Schulkind:

@earrie & glenn
I have been watching some of the CBC's coverage of the Olympics and the Keystone Pipeline ads have been revolting.

@Lewis
The doggie misses you.

10:44am still b/p:

Doug, you need a big, really big, German Shepherd that will place itself along the length of the vehicle on the pothole side to intercept the spatter. Goo' boy!

10:44am at cpd:

totally lame. Chair pop up everywhere on the South Side when it snows--especially in the Slopes.

🥁

10:44am duke:

New Your State has officially changed its name to State of Emergency. Snowpoaclypse or Schmaltzopolyse?

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

A 22-year-old Andrew Cyrille on drums here with Walt Dickerson. I had Cyrille live on my radio show the night Dizzy Gillespie died. Cyrille dedicated a song to him. Sad.

10:45am Michael:

Hey Doug.. Thei works too! City of Boston now "allows" limited use of chairs to save shoveled spaces because of the heavy snow this year.

🥁

10:45am duke:

Troy NY was great at putting chairs out to reserve spaces. We furnished our kitchen with those chairs when I was in school.

🥁

10:46am listener james from westwood:

this piece is stellar!

10:48am Doug Schulkind:

Apparently there have been a number of disputes over chair-held parking spots, because the Pittsburgh Police felt compelled to issue a statement acknowledging that saving parking spaces with plastic lawn chairs is not exactly legal.

10:49am earrie:

We leak with national pride.

10:51am Hugo:

Always appreciate hearing Roscoe Mitchell. This must be from Cafe Oto in London. I didn't find time to go there the last time in London, but there's always a next time.

10:52am earrie:

Or is it 'burst' ? 'Gush' ?

10:53am still b/p:

I want to read about a superhero who protects a city called Schmaltzopolis from villains.

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@earrie
Spew?

@Hugo
Yup, Cafe Oto.

@still b/p
I bet Sid Caeser could've riffed nicely on that.

10:54am Alex In Illinois:

I rent a parking space in a lot accross the street from and 100 feet East of my building. I always park in the same spot on the end, which I have shovelled a few times. I do not mind if someone uses the space while I am away at work (some peple have 12 hour day permits), so that is why I am reluctant to guard it with furniture, machinery or animals or other barricades. Also, if someone uses it while I am away, that will keep new snow from falling on it. I just wish there were a way to make sure it is clear when I get home.

10:55am glenn:

yeah, if somebody puts a chair out, it just gets driven over.
i've started wondering if all the train derailments lately aren't being engineered by the pipeline / oil folks. it seems a bit suspicious to me.

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

Here is a lovely piece on Roscoe Mitchell written by the wonderful Matthew Shipp: blog.tableandchairsmusic.com...

10:57am ndbob:

@glenn Nah - that sounds absurd to me

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
Jesus, that is just sinister enough to be possible.

10:59am earrie:

They're made into bigger news stories more like.

10:59am ndbob:

shakin' my head here - few things make me sadder then to hear conspiratorial things from the left - which I generally support

11:00am still b/p:

I just read that a drillboat called the Kraken will set off explosives underwater in the harbor today as part of dredging operation. I don't think I like the sound of that, myth-adventure-monster- havoc-releasing-bad-movie-plot-possibility-wise.

11:00am Doug Schulkind:

Tony Marsh is playing drums here about a month before he died, at 72, of cancer.

11:01am Uncle Michael:

I know too damned many lefty 9/11 truthers.

11:02am ndbob:

maybe this chat is not the place for me ya know?

11:03am Uncle Michael:

I'm agreeing with you...I think...about lefty conspiracy wackos.

11:03am glenn:

sorry, earrie. normally i laugh conspiracies off too, and i'm actually kinda embarrassed that the thought entered my mind, but you do have to admit there's been a lot more derailments than normal lately.

11:04am ndbob:

great UM:)

🥁

11:04am duke:

I'm going to leave my chair here at GTDS so I get a spot next week.

🥁

11:05am listener james from westwood:

i have also seen traffic cones with flags stuck in the top used, as though someone had stolen the props they used to learn parallel parking.

🥁

11:06am listener james from westwood:

btw, if anyone here follows the luminous humans of new york tumblr, there is an entry up today that has a lethal sting in its tail. nearly broke down upon reading it. wow. be warned.

11:06am glenn:

especially since the current canadian gov't is so heavily invested in the tarsands, and i wouldn't put anything past those evil reptilian douchebags.

11:06am ndbob:

@Glenn true - but those things happen

11:07am earrie:

Yeah, well, the math is pretty straight forward - bump up transports, bump up probability of accidents.

11:07am Uncle Michael:

Now if you were to suggest that fracking was *causing* derailments...

11:09am ndbob:

@earrie correct

11:10am glenn:

yeah, but it's not just more transports, it's reducing the number of safety check, inspections, rest breaks etc., at the same time.

11:10am Gary:

Whoa. You got my attention!

11:11am Gary:

This is a Sublime Frequencies I don't have ...

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

@Uncle Michael
Talk like that will get you tarred and feathered in Western Pennsylvania.

@Gary
My plan is working!

🥁

11:11am listener james from westwood:

i put it down to companies being too cheap to pay for maintenance/skilled labor (often an excuse to get rid of union workers) and government not being strong enough to resist erosion of consumer/citizen protections. witness west virginia.

11:12am ndbob:

@James that I agree with - totally

11:13am still b/p:

Friend of mine is going to be the facilitator for a committee that'll draft an ordinance to keep tar sands out of a neighboring town. All those seats may be hot, and hammer bait.

11:13am earrie:

And not keeping up with the boost in volume?

🥁

11:13am listener james from westwood:

jeezuz, wasn;t there just another derailment in w. pa.? vandergrift, pa, was it? (i only remember b/c a guy involved in the early oil trade had that name; town may have been named after him.)

11:13am ndbob:

@Doug working it is:)

🥁

11:14am listener james from westwood:

@gary, most of them are new to me, so they're always a treat. heard part of the north korea one recently after a long time of it not popping up on fmu. it is so strange.

11:14am Hugo:

Still very much enjoying the very first Sublime Frequencies release - from Sumatra. This must be new?

11:14am earrie:

Choosing where to invest is where the short-sightedness is in my opinion.

🥁

11:14am Brian in UK:

Forget global warming, there is still lack of water and food in Africa. Love those unelected leaders over there. And Zimbabwe.

11:14am Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
Yup, Vandergrift, wherever that is.

11:14am ndbob:

I have a bunch of them - not this though

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

The blog page where I grabbed this Hassaniya Music comp is no longer available. Otherwise, I would send you there.

11:18am earrie:

Emphasizing the risk/fear of derailments happens to be a convenient narrative for those invested in oil. The time scales of those perspectives are on the order more like that of insects.

🥁

11:19am listener james from westwood:

if i had to guess, somewhere near titusville.

11:20am Carmichael:

Good morning Doug, and happy #27 with WFMU!

🥁

11:20am listener james from westwood:

actually not, it's like 2 hr away; closer to our esteemed host, in fact. ah, this is why i always fact-check. :)

11:20am earrie:

Oil is an ugly 20th C. product with outdated accounting.

11:20am ndbob:

greetings carmichael!

11:21am ndbob:

20 miles NE of Pittsburgh

11:21am Carmichael:

Hiya, IndyBob!

11:21am Doug Schulkind:

According to Google Maps, Vandergrift, Pennsylvania is 31.7 miles away FROM MY HOUSE.

@Carmichael
Hey, thanks for remembering!

11:24am Carmichael:

Actually, LinkedIn told me :) But it's still true!

11:24am Doug Schulkind:

Jeez, I wonder if ndbob is related to Sideshow Bob.

@Carmichael
Well, LinkedIn forgot to remind me!

11:26am ndbob:

@Doug hmm:)

11:26am earrie:

The Canadian Conservative gov't is a big supporter of asbestos economics, too. Exports only, however. Refused to sign on to UN hazardous substance. Not the smartest lot.

11:27am still b/p:

Any railcar-spilled oil make it to your car windows?

11:29am glenn:

The worst gov't ever. I loathe them.

11:30am earrie:

(apologies -- frustration-driven due to the ignorance of fact/science at large)

🥁

11:31am listener james from westwood:

considering the # of chemical and petro plants NJ has, it's not as much a matter of time as it is a surprise that we also haven't had an incident along these lines.

11:31am ndbob:

@earrie indeed - no apologies needed from anyone

🥁

11:32am listener james from westwood:

not that we need another superfund site. shit, bergen county alone is a nightmare, from the old ford plant in mahwah thru the remedied thorium spill in maywood to the tainted banks of the passaic.

🥁

11:32am listener james from westwood:

@earrie, your frustration is justified and shared.

11:36am at cpd:

if I may make a point about fracking and Wester PAers--my wife is from western PA and even the republicans we know back in Johnstown are starting to put up anti-fracking signs in their yards.

11:37am pacific standard simon:

I'm awake. Here's barkin' at you, kid.

11:38am Doug Schulkind:

I just "discovered" the Newcomers. How the hell did I miss this amazing vocal group? Answer me that!

🥁

11:38am listener james from westwood:

good to see the concerns cross party lines.
mornin', PSS! woof woof!

11:38am earrie:

yeah? thanks..

11:39am Carmichael:

I'm scared about the concept of fracking, even though I don't know the science (or lack of it) behind it. Blowing up our planet piece by piece?

11:40am Doug Schulkind:

@pacific standard simon
Welcome aboard. I will give you a private replay of the first two and half hours.

@at cpd
That is surprising to me. No one can run for office around here, including the progressive Democrats, without supporting fracking and the energy companies wholeheartedly.

11:40am still b/p:

Would that be included in the big downloadable collection of Stax singles you pointed us to a few years ago? I made a couple of CDs from that bunch, but never unpacked the rest.

11:41am fleep:

Oh, what's a random earthquake now and then, happens here all the time.

11:41am ndbob:

@b/p It should be - there were two of those collections

11:42am at cpd:

I know, Doug, but I think the winds are shifting. My republican brother-in-law specifically mentioned not voting for anyone who supported fracking. Course he's not the most conservative guy on earth but still...

11:43am fleep:

Tap water you can light on fire? It's a feature.

11:44am Doug Schulkind:

Some crazy crazy shit, fleep.

11:44am at cpd:

@fleep: that's exactly what the BIL said.

🥁

11:44am listener james from westwood:

must duck out to lunch with someone who I hope isn't still trapped under snow and ice. many thanks for the great audio valentine, doug, and looking forward to uncle michael's mighty show!

11:44am Uncle Michael:

The next room: wfmu.org...

11:45am ndbob:

later James!

11:46am pacific standard simon:

There was a movie in the '60s called Crack In The World -- someone should make a YouTube remix of that with dubbed dialog and call it Frackin' The World.

11:46am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Uncle Michael's Hinky Dinky TIme is next here on the Drummer Stream. Go here for playlist hi-jinx! wfmu.org...

11:48am still b/p:

Have to assign myself some Stax cherry-picking hours. Or find a smart dog with a good ear to at least do the prelim for me after he clears the front walk.

11:48am Brian in UK:

We are prepared for anything over here (see avatar)

11:50am pacific standard simon:

I see that Exene Cervenka is having an estate sale this weekend (while she's still alive, thank goodness). Many incredible doo-dads and tchotchkes and guitars available in Orange County, California.

11:50am MrC:

Take this hurt off me Doug!

🥁

11:50am Brian in UK:

Great show - again, Doug.

11:52am jessie:

11:52am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the great show, Doug.

11:52am Doug Schulkind:

@MrC
The hurts just keep on coming! Only one left to pull out the record satchel for today. And it's a doozy.

11:52am ndbob:

ah a record on Shrine previous to this - won't find too many of those 45s

11:52am Alex In Illinois:

These love songs remind me. This morning when I got to my car, and I saw a an envelope under the wiper. First, I thought it was a ticket because I have not yet updated the sticker on my license plate. I cussed, then grabbed it and realized that it was not orange but red. My wife put it there when she was walking the dog a little earlier. Still, I will put the new sticker on tonight.

11:52am pacific standard simon:

If I were living nearby, all my Marathon money would be eaten alive by that sale.

11:53am still b/p:

Speaking of earthquakes -- the warm-up and wind are causing ice and snow to come off the roof, hitting and rattling loudly on the side of the house and the deck. Need a helmet when I step out maybe.

Doozy me mucho!

11:53am Doug Schulkind:

JESSIE!
Happy Valentine's to you, sweetheart! And happy early birthday!

11:54am pacific standard simon:

AWwwwwwww....

11:54am Uncle Michael:

That'sa niiiiiiize.

11:54am ndbob:

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

The static on this record sounds kind of like a bittersweet rain falling around Big Maybelle. Nice.

11:56am doca:

Hey, Doug, great show once again! Thanks!

11:56am still b/p:

Home-made cards only! Or wild collages made from a dollar-store fistful. That's the rule from now on.

11:56am Gary:

Thanks for the sweet sounds, Doug!

11:57am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks doca! Glad you heard it!

11:57am ndbob:

11:57am at cpd:

11:57am Doug Schulkind:

If you need to cheer yourselves back up again, put on Big Maybelle's "Candy." That oughta do the trick.

11:57am at cpd:

Thanks Drummer Some.

11:57am northguineahills:

Whee was I? Oh yeah, darn tootin' set, Doug!

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

11:58am pacific standard simon:

Someone just gave me one made from wire, a feather, and a Land-O-Lakes Butter box. Whee!

11:58am still b/p:

Lucky!

11:58am at cpd:

is it Big Maybelle that did that garage-sounding tune...can't remember the name.

11:58am ndbob:

I've never seen a collection of material from the Rojac label - could be a great one

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

I could've been rougher on you and played Big Maybelle's "This Bitter Earth" from the same record.

11:58am Alex In Illinois:

Sometimes old records make me hungry because the crackling sounds like bacon frying.

11:59am Doug Schulkind:

northguineahills!

11:59am northguineahills:

My gf and I don't do Valentine's or anniversaries. makes things simpler and easier to get dinner reservations on random nights. (consults the I-Ching)

Thanks, too, Doug. Great wishes to your weekend celebrating with Jessie.

12:01pm pacific standard simon:

I don't see why I can't get this show channeled directly into my brain while I'm still asleep.

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:
