Something fishy about this one ...

Those fish are all named jack. Get it? Jumping jacks! What, you don't like fish jokes?!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:50pm Gary:

Jokey-dokey!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:51pm Doug Schulkind:

At first I thought you said "jokey-donkey." That would NOT have been funny.

Jack-y Ass-y? :)

The tune playing on the stream right now? "Mr. Chicken Shit" by The Soul Seven.

Hi James and Bob!

Doug, in a good news/bad news one-two, I will be in Pittsburgh in late March, but I'll be stuck at a conference and unable to range forth and greet you on your home turf. Vexing in the extreme!
Avatar 6:06pm ndbob:

Quite a morning - I go to the same place for breakfast several times a week - today I went and there were three police cars in the parking lot - turned out it had been held up 20 minutes earlier - no one was hurt
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:07pm listener james from westwood:

Holy crap, ndbob! Glad you arrived after the excitement!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:07pm listener james from westwood:

My mom narrowly missed a bank robbery in the same way. Still shook her up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:07pm Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James
I'll come find you. I'll just turn on my LJFWGPS!

@ndbob
Glad you were 20 minutes late!

I barely missed this fire this morning, though my train was stalled for a half hour or so. It would have been my third subway fire, had I been there: gothamist.com...
Avatar 6:13pm ndbob:

Wow Gary!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:13pm listener james from westwood:

Yikes! GTDR lis'ners and hosts, all of y'all, do be safe!! (And your third fire? I'd move to Alberta after the first!!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:15pm Doug Schulkind:

EVERYBODY JUST STAY HOME FOR GOODNESS SAKES! And listen to the radio, maybe.
Avatar 6:16pm northguineahills:

Congrats, Gary! I'm already in the three subway fires club, thankfully none in the last 9 years.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:16pm Gary:

My first fire was this one: articles.latimes.com...
Avatar 6:18pm ndbob:

Were you OK Gary?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:18pm Doug Schulkind:

@Gary
Damn. That link had an auto-playing video. It was a commercial for Starbusts. I hate Starbursts.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:21pm Gary:

I was actually on my honeymoon. My then-wife and I really did think we were going to die. We were trapped for 45 minutes in a smoke-filled car. People were on the floor, throwing up, gagging, passing out. It was not pleasant.
Avatar 6:22pm Carmichael:

OK, finally made it to the really big shoe.
Avatar 6:24pm northguineahills:

My favorite one was on the A train just north of Canal. We were there for over two hours, and finally, the FDNY arrived and we went through the other train cars and onto the tracks for about 600m. Just a hint of smoke as the fire was in midtown.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:27pm Gary:

This is a Super Krazy version!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:28pm Doug Schulkind:

@Carmichael
Size doesn't matter, silly!
Avatar 6:29pm Carmichael:

Is the summertime theme due to wishful thinking, or because its warmer than usual where y'all are? It's always 70 degrees in this damn town.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:29pm listener james from westwood:

No fires, but I was trapped in a Midtown Manhattan elevator 2 weeks after 9/11. The bicycle courier with us began jumping up and down in a tantrum b/c he would be late. I looked @ him and said very firmly, "We're ALL going to be late." Based on my tone and face, a third party in the lift later communicated to a coworker that I looked, and I quote, "ready to whip his ass quite calmly."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:31pm davex:

Hi Doug! Just got here - did you move to Australia?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:31pm listener james from westwood:

I just wanted him not to snap the cables or some crap!
Avatar 6:32pm northguineahills:

I got stuck in an elevator at my old office on W 34th Street. It was crowded, but everyone remained calm. The person on the other end of the intercom didn't sound concerned, so one of the ladies next to me feigned illness, that got the fire dept there in a hurry, and we were out in 45 minutes. We had to climb out via a ladder to on top of the the elevator, and climb to the floor above us. Good times.
Avatar 6:33pm Carmichael:

I just that just for the halibut, Doug.
Avatar 6:33pm northguineahills:

jaja, funny davex!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:35pm listener james from westwood:

Now moving to a ranch house far from all elevators and subways!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:36pm Doug Schulkind:

@davex
No way. Not with all them killer spiders. In Australia, I mean.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:37pm Gary:

I do not EVER want to be in a trapped elevator.
Avatar 6:38pm northguineahills:

Making cajun hot boiled peanuts, as my mother-in-law has never had them, I forgot how long they take.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm Doug Schulkind:

How about with killer spiders, Gary?
Avatar 6:39pm Carmichael:

And flying fish, Gary?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:40pm Gary:

I think I'm more freaked out by the elevator than either the slimy flying fish or the deadly spiders. I have nightmares about elevators!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:41pm listener james from westwood:

I know at least one person who avoids them if at all possible. (Elevators. Though I don't think she's big on deadly spiders.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:43pm Doug Schulkind:

I could deal with some frying fish right about now.
Avatar 6:45pm ndbob:

@Gary same here
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:45pm Doug Schulkind:

I don't believe "She's gonna get out her little toy pair of wings" is in the original lyrics.

Don't think the Bond theme nod in the Farlowe isn't appreciated.

In my last car I set all my presets to WFMU, so when my friends tried to change the station by hitting one of the buttons (which happened often) they were stymied.

davex: An elevator whose roof slides open to admit gallons of spiders. No doubt many folks' concept of "1984"'s Room 101.

excellent show Doug!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:56pm Doug Schulkind:

@davex
Nope. Elevators lost to snakes in the semi-finals.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:57pm Gary:

[insert "that's because snakes bit and deflated the ball" joke here]

Aw, you're just saying that, ndbob!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 6:57pm listener james from westwood:

That is IT! I have had it with these motherfuckin' elevators on this motherfuckin' plane!

@Doug: I don't want to see the finals.

@James: That's major league now.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:59pm Doug Schulkind:

I don't know. Elevators have their ups and downs.
