	12:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: Tamar!
	12:13pm Tamar: Greetings, listeners! Happy Memorial Day! (unless you're memorializing, then it's not so happy)
	12:16pm bibi: hi tamar and all. salut pierre. i meet a bunch of new people in wfmuland today. is it cause it is bank holiday in north america ?
	12:22pm 12539: Tamar, that Breuer sounded more like a mambo than a mabo to me.
	12:23pm P-90: @ bibi: It's more than just a bank holiday the way you mean, it's one of the 5 "3-day weekend" holidays when everything comes to a standstill and almost everyone gets the day off, like even some FMU DJ's have today...
	12:27pm Tamar: Picky, picky! Corrected.
	12:34pm pierre: wow, les Surfs, sounds like grown ups on this one
	12:34pm pierre: Salut Bibi !
	12:43pm pierre: si—ziieyme and "leçon" was perfectly pronounced :)
	12:45pm P-90: "sah-zee-em lehsson"
	12:46pm I k e: Hi Tamar! @Bibi, we don't have the term "bank holiday" in the U.S. That's a British-ism. Fortunately a few of us watch a lot of British TV, so we understand. :) But yes, P-90 got it right.
	12:47pm pierre: I believe P-90's way is better
	12:47pm davex: Bonjour Tamar et TLM...
	12:48pm P-90: OOPs, more like "SEE-zee-em", the first way I tried sounds more like "16th" than "6th"
	12:48pm davex: Always good to see you back, Tamar.
	12:51pm JakeGould: Is the album this is on called “Gun Hill Road” as well? I need to know.

	1:16pm Tamar: Lincoln! Formative friend in musical taste! Going WAY back.
	1:18pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Tamar. Hi, folks chillin' & grillin'.
	1:37pm Jeff: Still reeling from the wonder of that MAN ... AmeriCAN rhyme.
	1:38pm Peter K.: This song was NOT written by "the" Ray Charles, I guarantee you. The Ray Charles who led the Ray Charles Singers, maybe. NOT the Ray Charles who sang "What'd I Say." Great show so far, by the way.
	1:39pm coelacanth: Hi Tamar. I met you at the record fair,once, at this location,with Rich...so that's a long time ago,when you were at midnight. I carried records to a truck.(etc) ...alas i cannot volunteer this year. Good to hear you again. Thanks for the history lesson.
