	12:03pm tmoyo: Hi all & a belated happy birthday to you Mayuko! Wishing you all the best in your 40s and beyond. Less than a year to hit the half century mark, I still don’t feel like an adult expect for back pains & such. Oh, well.

	12:07pm Franco Twinkie: Mayuko! Everything okay? Good! Yes, it's June, which means the beginning of the Summer fruit season. I'm off to the farmers market - can I get you anything?
	12:08pm Mayuko: Thank you, my radio family fred! I think any 40 yr old deserves to be celebrated twice, haha!
	12:09pm Mayuko: Hallos Dropof! and tmoyo! Thank you! Adulthood is painful indeed!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome, P-90!!!!!!
	12:10pm JosephB: Greetings Mayuko and vertigoers!
	12:10pm listener james from westwood: @tmoyo: I hit 50 on the 27th of this month! And I hear ya on not feeling like an adult. It's a good outlook.
	12:11pm JosephB: What does an adult feel like?
	12:11pm Mayuko: @Franco Ah, sounds wonderful! Please send me some watermelon as a zip file.
	12:12pm fred: The way it's going, I'm headed to reach the half century mark before adulthood. At least before understanding what the latter means
	12:12pm chresti: Don't get me started on pain...
	12:12pm tmoyo: Happy birthday James! i'm basically the same and wear the same kind of clothes for the past 30 yrs or more..
	12:12pm Franco Twinkie: Copy that.
	12:13pm Dropof Goldensun: I'm also not planning on feeling like an adult any time soon.
	12:14pm Mayuko: Hallos, Joe B!!!
	12:16pm JosephB: Happy belated James!
	12:16pm Mayuko: I feel like an adult when I play Simon Says with 4th graders and succeed to trick every single one of them all at once.
	12:16pm Dropof Goldensun: Is it possible to zip a watermelon? This morning I drove my daughter to the airport very early and on the way we saw a whole watermelon on the side of the road perfectly intact. Very strange. Someone out there is possibly wondering where their melon went?
	12:17pm chresti: I put off adulthood until my fifties, when I got a job with the City.
	12:18pm fred: @tmoyo: A good thing I found WFMU. Otherwise I wouldn't just be wearing the same kind of clothes, but the same clothes. At least every year brings a new batch of WFMU T-shirts
	12:18pm chresti: off
	12:20pm chresti: I wear the same clothes, they're smaller and in tatters
	12:21pm tmoyo: I actually like tattered clothes their comfy.
	12:22pm Doug Schulkind: This track is zipping my watermelon!
	12:23pm chresti: In my sixties, I learned that I have to move slower to avoid injury. Warm up before dancing
	12:28pm chresti: I do too@tmoyo
	12:29pm fred: I'm too old for multitasking. I tried to read a friend's Ph.D thesis about BIY noise while listening, but I just end up reading the same few lines over and over again.
	12:31pm Mayuko: @Dropof That's funny. One whole watermelon is a pretty big loss! That's like 250MB even as zipped.
	12:31pm fred: I meant DIY. I really suck at multitasking
	12:32pm Mayuko: @fred I was not aware that was how WFMU had actually been helping many people's adulthood. Thought we were rather ruining it for them. Good to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	12:33pm Mayuko: Happy to have you here, Doug!!
	12:33pm Mark R: Hi Mayuko, happy belated!
	12:34pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Mayuko Happy New Year!
	12:34pm Mayuko: @fred I could never listen to music and read at the same time my whole life.
	12:35pm Mayuko: Hi Mark R! Thank you!!!! Hallos, coel! Glad to have you here!!
	12:36pm coelacanth∅: hi everyone!
	12:37pm Mark R: I can listen to instrumental music and read. Music with lyrics (especially good one) does pull me out of whatever I'm reading.
	12:37pm chresti: Hi coel!
	12:37pm coelacanth∅: Mayuko, glad to have YOU here!
	12:40pm chresti: Instrumental music often helps me focus.
	12:40pm fred: I think I can send the thesis to anyone who asks, but it's like 760 pages, and in French
	12:43pm chresti: Jeez, 750 pages!
	12:43pm Mayuko: @fred Re: in French THAT is a problem. TOO difficult.
	12:44pm chresti: *760!!!
	12:44pm coelacanth∅: hi chresti! i heard an interviewee, a psychologist, once say no one multitasks ever - which i don't agree with but her point was that when you do "multitask" your attention is divided so therefore not on either task as fully.
	12:45pm fred: @Mayuko: I know! It's so difficult for me, I haven't read so much French in years
	12:46pm chresti: I can do things like cook, clean, paint, draw with music on
	12:47pm coelacanth∅: considering the diminished attention when multitasking, for me anyway it's a matter of what i am reading while in the pub; or what i am listening to while reading something challenging.
	12:49pm coelacanth∅: i do most things with music on...but then what is music? i often drive with no music on, and enjoy the sounds of the car and traffic
	12:49pm melinda: hi everyone
	12:51pm chresti: Hi melinda
	12:51pm melinda: @coel I sometimes do "ohmmmm" when I drive, to help me relax. It provides an interesting soundtrack.
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: hi melinda!
	12:52pm Rickwaukee: long beard and arthritis pain
	12:52pm chresti: Is that our Joseph B?
	12:53pm JosephB: Indeed! It's the birthday track I sent Mayuko last week! Wow, thanks, what an honor!
	12:54pm chresti: Hi JosephB!
	12:54pm coelacanth∅: melinda i like that. i sometimes sing but i'm going to try that
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: hi Joseph!
	12:56pm chresti: I like to sing in the car too
	12:56pm fred: In the noise scene, it's more like 'by 50 my ears were shot'". Probably 40, actually more like 30
	12:56pm Rickwaukee: Saw a crazy story about a guy who verifies every last living descendant of Confucius because C is so revered that they get special perks - perks used to Very Major
	12:57pm JosephB: Hey Chresti! When's YOUR birthday?
	12:58pm melinda: There is video of a man who prided himself on his multitasking skills driving an obstacle course while talking on the phone, to test those skills, and he kept knocking over the traffic cones, failing the test. It was so satisfying to watch.
	12:58pm chresti: August 2, coming right up! @Joseph
	12:59pm coelacanth∅: Scott Williams is a master of incorporating his speaking into the lively background music; incorporating lively background music into his micbreak. his voice becomes part of the music. Diane Ferris did that too with her bed music.
	1:00pm chresti: haha melinda
	1:05pm Michael 98145: Sad. Just learned this ... RIP www.theguardian.com...
	1:05pm JosephB: Hey Coelacanth!
	1:05pm Sem: Good afternoon, Mayuko and Vertigogo-ers.
	1:05pm chresti: I also enjoy Daniel Blumin's mic breaks
	1:06pm Dave in Vermont: do-worker walking by- Does anyone know what scale this Wax Tailor is?
	1:06pm listener james from westwood: Bad week between Redbone and Roky.
	1:07pm Dave in Vermont: *co-worker
	1:07pm chresti: Yesterday, I heard@Michael
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: oh shit.
	1:08pm Mayuko: Hi melinda, and Rickwaukee!!!
	1:08pm Michael 98145: yes
	1:09pm Dave in Vermont: that was a serious question....I figured if anyone knew it would be someone here
	1:09pm Mayuko: Hi Michael 98145, and my radio family Sem!!!!!!!!!!
	1:09pm Linda Lee: so glad to hear you today, Mayuko!
	1:10pm Michael 98145: always good to be here
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: this one hits me harder than most. rest in peace, Roky.
	1:10pm chresti: pentatonic?@Dave
	1:13pm fred: I liked this Koi Child track. Apparently they're no longer active, and I missed another boat
	1:13pm Ivan: Happy belated birthday Mayuko! Loving the show today. I've been 40 for almost a year now.. you get used to it :)
	1:13pm Mayuko: Hi Dave in VT! What scale?? I can tell if it's about Louis Wain Cat Scale that measures the level of abstraction of the music. Also it's this kind of gibberish in my brain that gets in my way of doing accurate mic breaks.
	1:15pm Dropof Goldensun: The LW Cat Scale!
	1:15pm JosephB: @Mayuko Hahaha so where does it fall on the LWC scale?
	1:15pm Mayuko: Hi Linda Lee! Thank you for tuning in!!!!
	1:16pm Mayuko: Thank you Ivan! I've been practicing it by claiming that I was already 40 for the last couple years.
	1:17pm Dropof Goldensun: Hey Linda Lee! How are you today? Saw a fox in my backyard today! First time for that.
	1:18pm tmoyo: Mayuko, about the Confusius quote, the author Yasuda Noboru has another theory. He interprets that Confusius said, "at 40, dare to push boundaries." because 5000 yrs ago the Chinese character 惑 didn't exist. www.mishimaga.com...
	1:18pm melinda: @Mayuko I tend to get ahead of myself and start thinking I've already turned the age several months before, in preparation.
	1:19pm chresti: Now, I'll look back to my 40s and think about how much more energy I had then
	1:21pm coelacanth∅: ... i think it was Alan Watts that said Confucius was basically telling people to stay in line, follow the rules; be a useful member in society. -sort of the opposite of zen Buddhism.
	1:21pm Linda Lee: hi Dropof! aren't they magical little critters? look out for kits!
	1:21pm chresti: Also, in Confusius's day, lifespans were shorter, the 40s were considered old, I imagine
	1:23pm fred: I'm kinda eager to turn 50 (if it comes to that), just to see the graduate students look at me like an extreme weirdo for the gigs I go to and my chaotic lifestyle
	1:24pm Linda Lee: i'm looking hard at 60. it's 2 digits. :-) after a point they stop holding much meaning on their own.
	1:24pm Dropof Goldensun: LL, I was up extra early today so I think that's why I saw it. It was crazy. There were 2 crows and blue jay going crazy above it! As a city boy I'm clueless!
	1:24pm Linda Lee: Mother says hello. :-)
	1:25pm Linda Lee: have you kitkats? keep them in at night now.
	1:26pm Mayuko: @Dropof @Joe B That track was even kinda descriptive with all that lyrics, so not much abstraction? I'd say level 2? I'm 99% sure Dave in VT's co-worker is not expecting to know this, but I set my hope on the last 1%. The world can be miraculous from time to time.
	1:28pm Dropof Goldensun: @Mayuko - Yeah, I agree. Pretty low on the scale. 2 Sounds about right.
	1:29pm chresti: I thought Dave in VT was referring to the Wax Tailor track
	1:29pm Dropof Goldensun: LL, I have my one cat but he has never been outside and he has no plans on going out. I open a door and runs and hides! He's a big man looking out the glass back door though! haha
	1:30pm Linda Lee: smart boy! :-)
	1:30pm fred: @LL: I've mentioned it before on this playlist, but a precious memory of mine is seeing crows playing on a slide downstairs. They'd drop something on it, slide along, and try to catch it at the bottom. Sometimes they did, sometimes not. I spent a lot of time watching them
	1:30pm Linda Lee: love this hyperculte track! also love the repetitive lyric about the ability to change :-) :-)
	1:31pm Linda Lee: love it, fred. love our neighbors. we know them so superficially.
	1:32pm Dropof Goldensun: Yeah, brilliant repetition there with that lyric. Hope it was intentional! ;)
	1:32pm Mayuko: @tmoyo This is great! I need to read through this article after the show!!! I much like that interpretation much better!!!!!
	1:32pm Linda Lee: only if the band is intelligent.
	1:34pm coelacanth∅: damn. i can't read that!
	1:35pm Linda Lee: i'm heading out now to a sad duty: aim to cut out a large, old & sick juniper bush. feels sorrowful out there. let's see if we can't release that spirit. see you soon!
	1:38pm Dropof Goldensun: Take care LL!
	1:39pm Mayuko: @fred I always loved to see older people in clubs dressing up dancing and enjoying themselves. They looked much freer than anybody on the floor. I must become one of them!
	1:39pm Mayuko: Have a wonderful rest of the weekend, Linda Lee!
	1:40pm Linda Lee: thank you both! you too Mayuko!
	1:40pm JosephB: Later Linda!
	1:41pm fred: @Mayuko: I'm not one of them anymore, but you can sure be
	1:42pm Ranger Jim Haku: Happy belated, enjoying the show
	1:43pm coelacanth∅: oh and chresti (@1.05) i do too. Blumin's and of course Mayuko's; Flash Strap's and Uncle Michael's...etc... at some point it's not a mic break anymore it's just part of the program. ...but i mentioned Scott and Diane because they sort of dance with their bed music.
	1:45pm Mayuko: Starting at 2pm stay tuned for Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson! With his guest Dan Clucas, a cornetist and composer from Los Angeles, California. wfmu.org...
	1:45pm Rickwaukee: PLUCK PLUCK PLUCK-PLUCK
	1:45pm Dropof Goldensun: Digital Dance was so good!
	1:46pm Mayuko: Welcome on board, Ranger Jim Haku! Thank you for listening!
	1:46pm chresti: A lot of social anxieties vanish after 50s-60s
	1:47pm Michael 98145: 71 used to seem old ..
	1:48pm fred: 21 used to seem old...
	1:49pm chresti: At shows, I have to focus on not bumping into someone, having less balance and failing eyesight
	1:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: Just arriving. Was stuck in May.
	1:51pm JosephB: Speaking of "More Better," I get to go see Hosono-san on Monday!
	1:51pm coelacanth∅: it seems very young now Michael
	1:51pm chresti: Thanks Mayuko, fun Vertigo!
	1:52pm JosephB: Thanks for the fun show Mayuko!
	1:53pm Dave Sewelson: Thank Mayuko...my birthday is June 9th

	1:58pm Michael 98145: Happy June, everyone. Keep pushing the envelope.
	1:58pm Dropof Goldensun: I love your ramblings! Thanks Mayuko! Have a great week everyone!

	12:31pm Mayuko: @Dropof That's funny. One whole watermelon is a pretty big loss! That's like 250MB even as zipped.
	12:31pm fred: I meant DIY. I really suck at multitasking
	12:32pm Mayuko: @fred I was not aware that was how WFMU had actually been helping many people's adulthood. Thought we were rather ruining it for them. Good to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	12:51pm melinda: @coel I sometimes do "ohmmmm" when I drive, to help me relax. It provides an interesting soundtrack.
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: hi melinda!
	12:52pm Rickwaukee: long beard and arthritis pain
	12:52pm chresti: Is that our Joseph B?
	12:53pm JosephB: Indeed! It's the birthday track I sent Mayuko last week! Wow, thanks, what an honor!
	12:54pm chresti: Hi JosephB!
	12:54pm coelacanth∅: melinda i like that. i sometimes sing but i'm going to try that
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: hi Joseph!
	12:56pm chresti: I like to sing in the car too
	12:56pm fred: In the noise scene, it's more like 'by 50 my ears were shot'". Probably 40, actually more like 30
	12:56pm Rickwaukee: Saw a crazy story about a guy who verifies every last living descendant of Confucius because C is so revered that they get special perks - perks used to Very Major
	12:57pm JosephB: Hey Chresti! When's YOUR birthday?
	12:58pm melinda: There is video of a man who prided himself on his multitasking skills driving an obstacle course while talking on the phone, to test those skills, and he kept knocking over the traffic cones, failing the test. It was so satisfying to watch.
	12:58pm chresti: August 2, coming right up! @Joseph
	12:59pm coelacanth∅: Scott Williams is a master of incorporating his speaking into the lively background music; incorporating lively background music into his micbreak. his voice becomes part of the music. Diane Ferris did that too with her bed music.
	1:00pm chresti: haha melinda
	1:05pm Michael 98145: Sad. Just learned this ... RIP www.theguardian.com...
	1:05pm JosephB: Hey Coelacanth!
	1:05pm Sem: Good afternoon, Mayuko and Vertigogo-ers.
	1:05pm chresti: I also enjoy Daniel Blumin's mic breaks
	1:06pm Dave in Vermont: do-worker walking by- Does anyone know what scale this Wax Tailor is?
	1:06pm listener james from westwood: Bad week between Redbone and Roky.
	1:07pm Dave in Vermont: *co-worker
	1:07pm chresti: Yesterday, I heard@Michael
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: oh shit.
	1:08pm Mayuko: Hi melinda, and Rickwaukee!!!
	1:08pm Michael 98145: yes
	1:09pm Dave in Vermont: that was a serious question....I figured if anyone knew it would be someone here
	1:09pm Mayuko: Hi Michael 98145, and my radio family Sem!!!!!!!!!!
	1:09pm Linda Lee: so glad to hear you today, Mayuko!
	1:10pm Michael 98145: always good to be here
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: this one hits me harder than most. rest in peace, Roky.
	1:10pm chresti: pentatonic?@Dave
	1:13pm fred: I liked this Koi Child track. Apparently they're no longer active, and I missed another boat
	1:13pm Ivan: Happy belated birthday Mayuko! Loving the show today. I've been 40 for almost a year now.. you get used to it :)
	1:13pm Mayuko: Hi Dave in VT! What scale?? I can tell if it's about Louis Wain Cat Scale that measures the level of abstraction of the music. Also it's this kind of gibberish in my brain that gets in my way of doing accurate mic breaks.
	1:15pm Dropof Goldensun: The LW Cat Scale!
	1:15pm JosephB: @Mayuko Hahaha so where does it fall on the LWC scale?
	1:15pm Mayuko: Hi Linda Lee! Thank you for tuning in!!!!
	1:16pm Mayuko: Thank you Ivan! I've been practicing it by claiming that I was already 40 for the last couple years.
	1:17pm Dropof Goldensun: Hey Linda Lee! How are you today? Saw a fox in my backyard today! First time for that.
	1:18pm tmoyo: Mayuko, about the Confusius quote, the author Yasuda Noboru has another theory. He interprets that Confusius said, "at 40, dare to push boundaries." because 5000 yrs ago the Chinese character 惑 didn't exist. www.mishimaga.com...
	1:18pm melinda: @Mayuko I tend to get ahead of myself and start thinking I've already turned the age several months before, in preparation.
	1:19pm chresti: Now, I'll look back to my 40s and think about how much more energy I had then
	1:21pm coelacanth∅: ... i think it was Alan Watts that said Confucius was basically telling people to stay in line, follow the rules; be a useful member in society. -sort of the opposite of zen Buddhism.
	1:21pm Linda Lee: hi Dropof! aren't they magical little critters? look out for kits!
	1:21pm chresti: Also, in Confusius's day, lifespans were shorter, the 40s were considered old, I imagine
	1:23pm fred: I'm kinda eager to turn 50 (if it comes to that), just to see the graduate students look at me like an extreme weirdo for the gigs I go to and my chaotic lifestyle
	1:24pm Linda Lee: i'm looking hard at 60. it's 2 digits. :-) after a point they stop holding much meaning on their own.
	1:24pm Dropof Goldensun: LL, I was up extra early today so I think that's why I saw it. It was crazy. There were 2 crows and blue jay going crazy above it! As a city boy I'm clueless!
	1:24pm Linda Lee: Mother says hello. :-)
	1:25pm Linda Lee: have you kitkats? keep them in at night now.
	1:26pm Mayuko: @Dropof @Joe B That track was even kinda descriptive with all that lyrics, so not much abstraction? I'd say level 2? I'm 99% sure Dave in VT's co-worker is not expecting to know this, but I set my hope on the last 1%. The world can be miraculous from time to time.
	1:28pm Dropof Goldensun: @Mayuko - Yeah, I agree. Pretty low on the scale. 2 Sounds about right.
	1:29pm chresti: I thought Dave in VT was referring to the Wax Tailor track
	1:29pm Dropof Goldensun: LL, I have my one cat but he has never been outside and he has no plans on going out. I open a door and runs and hides! He's a big man looking out the glass back door though! haha
	1:30pm Linda Lee: smart boy! :-)
	1:30pm fred: @LL: I've mentioned it before on this playlist, but a precious memory of mine is seeing crows playing on a slide downstairs. They'd drop something on it, slide along, and try to catch it at the bottom. Sometimes they did, sometimes not. I spent a lot of time watching them
	1:30pm Linda Lee: love this hyperculte track! also love the repetitive lyric about the ability to change :-) :-)
	1:31pm Linda Lee: love it, fred. love our neighbors. we know them so superficially.
	1:32pm Dropof Goldensun: Yeah, brilliant repetition there with that lyric. Hope it was intentional! ;)
	1:32pm Mayuko: @tmoyo This is great! I need to read through this article after the show!!! I much like that interpretation much better!!!!!
	1:32pm Linda Lee: only if the band is intelligent.
	1:34pm coelacanth∅: damn. i can't read that!
	1:35pm Linda Lee: i'm heading out now to a sad duty: aim to cut out a large, old & sick juniper bush. feels sorrowful out there. let's see if we can't release that spirit. see you soon!
	1:38pm Dropof Goldensun: Take care LL!
	1:39pm Mayuko: @fred I always loved to see older people in clubs dressing up dancing and enjoying themselves. They looked much freer than anybody on the floor. I must become one of them!
	1:39pm Mayuko: Have a wonderful rest of the weekend, Linda Lee!
	1:40pm Linda Lee: thank you both! you too Mayuko!
	1:40pm JosephB: Later Linda!
	1:41pm fred: @Mayuko: I'm not one of them anymore, but you can sure be
	1:42pm Ranger Jim Haku: Happy belated, enjoying the show
	1:43pm coelacanth∅: oh and chresti (@1.05) i do too. Blumin's and of course Mayuko's; Flash Strap's and Uncle Michael's...etc... at some point it's not a mic break anymore it's just part of the program. ...but i mentioned Scott and Diane because they sort of dance with their bed music.
