Listener comments!
	1:57pm listener james from westwood: howdy, all, and welcome back, matt!
	2:00pm Uncle Michael: Welcome home, Matt.
	2:00pm Uncle Michael: 'ray, Ted!
	2:01pm Doug Schulkind: Matterosa Stomp!
	2:03pm Matt F: Hey kids! Glad to be back.
	2:04pm Mailman Tom: Hallelujah! Matt Fiveash has returned to the airwaves!
	2:05pm holland oats: drummasums!
	2:07pm Matt F: WFMU's October silent fundraiser is underway, as if you didn't already know. I don't care whose show you pledge to as long as you pledge. Here's the link to pledge to my show if yer so inclined: www.wfmu.org...
	2:07pm Nate K: Hola Matt! Looking forward to the Monk/Huey stuff. And feel free to keep the NOLA party going.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: I might have to roll a DD die to decide who to pledge to. I want the t-shirt!
	2:09pm Nate K: 'Fess!
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: It's Ivory Joe Hunter's birthday too.
	2:10pm duke: Some of that long hair music
	2:11pm Doug Schulkind: Floating, whirled.
	2:12pm Ted Barron: Oh yeah.
	2:12pm Parq: Fiveash, welcome back! I envy FMU's delagation to the Stomp every year, and while I may get there myself yet, I always look forward to these "Look what I got" shows.
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Matt, did you meet my Cosimo Matassa archivist pal at the Stomp?
	2:13pm Parq: Ted's sub slots were magnificent, by the way.
	2:16pm Matt F: UM- Nah, we had a late dinner at the Camellia Grill and the bloat kept us away from the Thursday dance party!
	2:18pm Matt F: Shirley of Shirley & Lee: Greatest vocalist of all time?
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: New Orleans food trumps everything.
	2:24pm Matt F: Really the Ponderosa Stomp is just a good thing to plan an eating vacation around. I ate so many oysters, hoping the Mercury Poisoning would kill me before the credit card debt did. No such luck!
	2:26pm Uncle Michael: I'm imagining the fun, food and music of NOLA without huge freaking crowds. Is that a fair estimation?
	2:27pm Nate K: Did you hit up Adolfo's on Frenchmen by chance? Quite possibly the best meal I've ever had in my life.
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Like even less Mard Gras-like than Jazzfest is?
	2:27pm Matt F: That's about right. That and about half the WFMU on-air staff.
	2:29pm Matt F: Nate- never heard of it. Will have to put it on the list for next time.
	2:29pm Ted Barron: I would never discourage playing Huey and the Clowns, but it appears that his birthday is actually on January 26th.
	2:32pm Doug Schulkind: And the Clowns' birthday is February 30.
	2:32pm ?: I'm on lunch break from a day-long work strategic planning meeting. Fiveash to the rescue!!
	2:33pm Ted Barron: Shirley's only rival is Rosie of Rosie and the Originals.
	2:34pm Parq: "My favorite Marchan" -- Hah! Love it. Going to steal it.
	2:35pm northguineahills: Monk, so nice. Joe dropped some as well.
	2:41pm Doug Schulkind: The New York Times just posted a story about these rabbis who, for a fee, will kidnap and torture (with cattle prods) husbands until they agree to a divorce. And now the Times' site is down. Coincidence?!
	2:42pm Matt F: Wasn't that the plotline of a Sopranos episode?
	2:44pm Nate K: Yup, sort of. Paulie and Silvio did the dirty work though.
	2:45pm Doug Schulkind: Rest easy, everyone, the torture rabbis are back online (though now in FBI custody).
	2:45pm Matt F: Parq- credit where credit's due, I stole that joke from John Funke (host of the best radio show in the world, "Backwoods", Saturday mornings 10 Am to noon on 88.1 WMBR, Cambridge MA.)
	2:46pm Matt F: "Hasidim but I don't-a believe em!"
	2:48pm listener james from westwood: "and where are the romans now?" "you're lookin' at 'em."
	2:49pm northguineahills: Doug, some people would pay good money for that to done to themselves. (w/ or w/o the divorce)
	2:57pm listener james from westwood: reminds me of pete bondurant's marital-strife shakedown service at the start of "american tabloid."
	3:00pm Doug Schulkind: At least the rabbis weren't farming out their torture to a mohel.
	3:08pm northguineahills: What about mohels for goys! Some may sign up for that! (not sure where this is going).
	3:09pm Parq: A guy walks past a shop which has nothing but a clock in the window. He happens to have his broken watch in his briefcase, as he's been meaning to bring it in for repair. He goes into the shop and addresses the man inside. He asks if the watch can be repaired. The store man says, "I don't fix watches. I'm a mohel." The customer says, "You're a mohel? Then why are you displaying a clock outside?" The store man says, "OK, you tell me what I should display there."
	3:11pm Uncle Michael: A wallet.
	3:13pm Uncle Michael: Very happy to hear this song again!
	3:14pm Matt F: A shoemaker asks his friend the mohel to save all the foreskins from circumsisions and bring them to him, and he will make a beautiful gift for him. The mohel does so, and continues to do so for ten years. Finally the shoemaker calls the mohel and tells him that his gift is ready. The mohel gets there and the shoemaker presents him with a wallet. "A wallet? Ten yeaars of foreskins and all you got out of it was a wallet?" "Yeah, but if you rub it it turns into a suitcase".
	3:17pm Uncle Michael: Yes, a wallet.
	3:18pm northguineahills: booo.... lol!
	3:18pm Uncle Michael: I fore(skin)shadowed.
	3:18pm hyde: man, I miss everything.
	3:25pm Parq: Sadly, a Google search for "old bluesmen jokes" yields nothing worth mentioning.
	3:27pm Lore: Parq, here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OKx-YNJGhU
	3:28pm Matt F: There is a story about Jimmy Reed, not exactly a joke but it sorta has a punchline: "I done peed".
	3:38pm Parq: Fiveash, let's have it! Speaking of going to pee, I gotta go, although for a different reason. In case I don't make it back by 4, I'll say now that this has been another stellar show.
	3:39pm Monica: matt! working but listening. great as always! gotta listen to that promised land album now, thanks for turning me onto it!
	3:40pm Matt F: Yo Mo!
	3:46pm Matt F: Hey Lore! Hoping to make the RL Boyce show on the 19th. Feel free to plug it here on the playlist.
	3:53pm holland oats: great song, but thx to rock n roll hall of fame, now i can't hear albert king without picturing john mayer
	3:55pm Matt F: search for the recent all star R&R hall of fame jam on "crossroads" on youtube... if you dare. Probably the worst thing ever.
	3:56pm Lore: Thanks Matt! Yeah, I hope we'll all be able to make it and do the old folks boogie for a while.
	3:56pm listener james from westwood: some singles going steady practice here, i see. this show was a firecraker. thanks for lighting the fuse, matt!
	3:56pm Uncle Michael: Hey...Joe Bonnamassa is coming to my town!
	3:57pm duke: Great show Mr. Matt
	3:57pm Uncle Michael: Indeed...thanks Matt
	3:58pm Matt F: UM- will he be bringing bluesmen Dave Grohl and Geddy Lee with him?
	3:59pm Brian in UK: Hello/Goodbye Matt. The Trems song written by Cat Stevens. Respect Thelonious.
	4:00pm Uncle Michael: One can only hope, Matt.
	4:00pm trs: Good fill-ins while you were away, Matt. And good to hear you back.
	4:03pm Matt F: Thanks y'all, good to be back.
	5:54am purpleknif: Snoopy dance of joy for Matt is back!
