Listener comments!
	8:02pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	8:02pm loveless: Paint that rock. Hello all.
	8:03pm P-90: Yes, I CAN see those skirts a-twirlin’
	👻 8:03pm Handy Haversack: Becky and the Tonka Trucks!
	8:03pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Becky, folks!
	8:07pm Birdy girl: Hi Becky and honky Yonkers!
	👻 8:08pm Handy Haversack: I love sentence names too! I had a student once named Lisa Gentles, which I thought was awesome.
	8:09pm Gz: Neeled agrass tyson
	8:10pm Cat Stacker: Be my Bepis I'll Bepis it with yew
	👻 8:14pm PigeonsAndRust: All he wanted was a Bepsi
	8:14pm Becky: This Sons of the Pioneers gospel number kinda smokes, no?
	8:14pm Cat Stacker: One time I sold a Sons of the Pioneers CD to an old lady and she was going to give it to her grandson . . . she brought it back (and returned it) because it had "Cowboy's Sweetheart" as the last track and she didn't want to encourage premarital sex by giving him something with that kinda content on it
	👻 8:15pm PigeonsAndRust: wow, Cat, that's something else. Did she find anything pure enough to replace it with?
	8:16pm Cat Stacker: Nope, we had nothing pure enough to replace it . . . we were out of the Carter Family I guess . . . returned to cash and it was "a hall of famer" printed out the reason for return for laughs and kept in the back room
	8:17pm Cat Stacker: #1 hall of fame return was the lady who got a lawyer to send us a nastygram to replace the Pootie Tang Soundtrack? It had a manufacturer's defect and had ruined her car stereo, which we also replaced
	👻 8:18pm Handy Haversack: That's why a lot of stores put in "Pre-" and "Post-" sections. Keep it all clear for the norms.
	👻 8:19pm PigeonsAndRust: I can't touch your stories, Cat, but I worked in a junk store all through high school and a lady would always come in and ask for Nelson Eddy records. We finally found one and asked $5 for it. This highway robbery infuriated her so much that she gouged a couple of pieces of furniture with her keys on the way out. At least she never came back
	8:19pm ultradamno: How could Pootie Tang wreck a car stereo? Pootie, dang!
	8:21pm Cat Stacker: You got me, but the district manager ponied up the dough to fix the Pootie'd up stereo!
	8:21pm Cat Stacker: hahaha lol whoa Nelson Eddy fans are seriously nuts apparently!!
	8:22pm Cat Stacker: There was this woman OBSESSED with Mr. Bean and she would come in and order every single Mr. Bean DVD from Valley, then not buy them, again and again. Pretty sure we had the best Mr. Bean section this side of the Pond!
	👻 8:23pm PigeonsAndRust: that made me laugh out loud!
	8:23pm Becky: hahahahaha
	8:24pm Cat Stacker: I used to be like "NOT AGAIN" but now on hard days . . . I miss talkin' Bean with that lady. She would just describe Bean scenes to you for hours. Like ". . . and Mr. Bean doesn't know how to eat the lobster, so he just bites the shell . . . "
	👻 8:25pm PigeonsAndRust: a gentle kind of monomania
	👻 8:26pm PigeonsAndRust: That Glen Campbell was a new one on me, Becky. I'm going to find a copy now to give to my friend Paul, who collects records, to give to his long-suffering wife Brenda for Christmas
	8:27pm Becky: I love that one!
	8:28pm Cat Stacker: Many years later I was at a flea market. . . I bought a set of vintage heavy glass pint mugs from a lady who was like, in aspect and habit, so, so, so similar to the Bean Lady. It was uncanny. But she seemed normal. When I packed up the mugs, she muttered over and over . . . "She must really like root beer floats . . . yep must really like milkshakes . . ." and smiling in sort of a special way. . . and I SO wanted to be like ". . . .you don't happen to be into Mr. Bean do you?"
	8:28pm johnk77: nice work selecter rip robbie shakespeare:<
	👻 8:35pm Handy Haversack: That was a good set for playing with the kittens -- hoping I've exhausted them just a little!
	👻 8:35pm PigeonsAndRust: Oh, Cat, flea market people are what I miss most about not doing that kind of work regularly. From the devil family that had horn implants, to strange requests like "Do you have any triangular glass door knobs?" and the occasional celebrity (I sold Sally Struthers an old toaster once, and a bankers lamp to one of the guys in Neutral Milk Hotel). I felt right at home when I did a flea back in October and set up next to a lady who was selling glow-in-the-dark ashtrays she molded in the exact shape of her own vagina.
	8:38pm Becky: Hey y'all - deciding on my marathon premium for the year. What would you think about a collection of creepy-crawly-minory-rockabilly-hillbilly-type stuff?
	👻 8:39pm Handy Haversack: Exactitude counts, PAR! Becky, "minory" like minors? Miners? Minorities? Minatories? Minotaurs? Honestly, I'm in no matter how you answer.
	8:39pm ultradamno: I like all those words so I can't see how it could miss
	👻 8:40pm PigeonsAndRust: Becky, you have great taste. If you think it's going to be a good premium then I'm sure it will be!!
	8:40pm Becky: Minor keys! If I had 20 records about minotaurs, I would totally do that, though.
	8:41pm ultradamno: Though I still think an all bed music instrumental disc needs to happen
	8:41pm loveless: Youse guys are cracking me up tonight! Thanks for the laughs.
	👻 8:41pm PigeonsAndRust: Are there any rockabilly disaster songs, like in the vein that Vernon Dalhart had a record for every dang calamity?
	👻 8:41pm Handy Haversack: My truck, my labyrinth, my minotaur, America! I'm so in!
	8:43pm Becky: There are DEFINITELY rockabilly songs about car crashes, but not sure about any collapsing bridges or drowned schoolchildren or anything.
	👻 8:44pm Handy Haversack: Mining disasters never went -billy?
	8:44pm Becky: Rockabilly records are pretty narcissistic, come to think of it.
	8:45pm ultradamno: No rockabilly answer to Timothy? Sad.
	👻 8:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Becky and honk-ee tonks!
	8:47pm e.spangle: So good.
	8:49pm ultradamno: Maybe from Timothy's point of view "guys, STOP IT!"
	👻 8:50pm PigeonsAndRust: Well, Ultradamno, you have a job to do now
	👻 8:52pm Handy Haversack: Gonna listen to the last few minutes while I do the dishes. Thanks, Becky! Great show tonight! Later on, Tonkans. Looking forward to the Old Artificers' "Timothy and the Minotaurs" next week if not before!
	8:57pm Becky: By the way, any NYC-area folks, the great Thirsty Dave and Western Caravan are doing a set at Otto's at 7 PM on Friday!
	8:58pm MisterNick: What a show … !!!!
	👻 8:59pm PigeonsAndRust: thanks Becky!! It was great fun hanging out here tonight
	9:00pm Pauly from Clifton: Thanks, Becky!
	9:00pm Birdy girl: Great show, Becky!
	9:00pm morphe': Thanks So HT !!!
	9:01pm ?: Great show again.. thanks!
