	3:01pm Jan Turkenburg: listening in lotus position
	3:01pm notsoKWYET: I already know i am going to be soooo into this!
	3:01pm Rich in Washington: I literally had to take the headphones off my head to see if it was violently raining on my roof.
	3:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Jan!

	3:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Lovely music to soothe
	3:01pm Paper Kosmonaut: Hi people.
	3:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Dom!
	3:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi PK!
	3:02pm notsoKWYET: written by a Canadian!
	3:02pm worldsworstrecords: Beautiful sounds and words, GG
	3:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I wanted the music to be gentle as some of the poems are, as Dom says, a wee bit intense.
	3:02pm notsoKWYET: We all learn Flander's Fields when we are very young... is that the case elsewhere? Or is that a Canadian thing?
	3:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - Thank you, lovely <3
	3:02pm Martinibomb: Feels like I'm floating in jelly
	3:02pm Paper Kosmonaut: Poems of war are always so touching.
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - I learned it at school in Vancouver, so maybe. :-)
	3:03pm solo mon: Notso- Ned Flanders?
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi MB! These albums were recommended to me by the wonderful Matty Dread :-)
	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - When I saw the date, I knew I had to do this
	3:03pm solo mon: I feel like I’m encased in aspic.
	3:03pm Paper Kosmonaut: Le Dormeur du Val (Baudelaire) comes to mind.
	3:03pm notsoKWYET: AlllloooooHEyyyyyy Solo
	3:04pm worldsworstrecords: I don't recall learning about the war poets in school in Britain in the 70s
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @solo - Floaty float :-)
	3:04pm Sonderangebot: Working but tuned in <3
	3:04pm worldsworstrecords: I may have switched off or been playing truant though
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK- Very much so! Love Baudelaire :-)
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - Same here to be honest
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Sondy!
	3:05pm Paper Kosmonaut: In Dutchyland the 11th of november is largely celebrated as Saint Martin's day, with tick-or treating, since we did not take part in WW1.
	3:05pm solo mon: Isn’t there a mimsy farmer record where she recites Baudelaire?
	3:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I read most of these poems with my nails dug into my palm to steel myself and stop from crying
	3:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK- I didn't know that!
	3:06pm Paper Kosmonaut: French singer Sapho did a marvellous version of the Le Dormeur du Val in the 1980s.
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @solo - I know there's a Mireille Matthieu one? I think. I'll have to check that.
	3:06pm solo mon: I’m ready to cry a little. Thanks GG
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - I'm always up for a Baudelaire reading. Oh!!! I may have to do that :-)
	3:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @solo - <3
	3:06pm Sem: Hello, gg, and the HWM contingent. Along for the duration.
	3:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Sem!
	3:07pm notsoKWYET: There is a French ye-ye one by Uta where she recites Baudelaire
	3:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I also need to say thank you to Greg for taking care of LHT for me on Monday :-)
	3:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - Love that track!!! Played that a few times
	3:07pm Martinibomb: THANK YOU GREG!!!!
	3:08pm Paper Kosmonaut: My favourite war poem is High Flight by John Gillespie Magee. That one always is good for a lump in my throat, even though i am an atheist.
	3:09pm Paper Kosmonaut: I am very aware of the remembrance of WW1 though. It was a terrible war.
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - I found so many that just reached in, tore my heart out, and put it back in again upside down
	3:09pm Paper Kosmonaut: I can relate to that, GG.
	3:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - <3
	3:10pm worldsworstrecords: I didn't 'get' poetry at school... it was much later, when I read Shakespeare's Sonnets that I started to understand what it was all about
	3:11pm worldsworstrecords: I Love ye-ye, NSK... I'll have to check that out
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - It never helps having spotty herberts in class stumbling over it either! That was always our English class :-)
	3:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This is still the first track by the way - I got overexcited and hit publish too soon :-)
	3:12pm Paper Kosmonaut: @ Darryl: Kind of the same here. I saw a poem on the wall of the literature classroom which suddenly grabbed my soul and never let me go again.
	3:12pm worldsworstrecords: My problem was in having a disinterested teacher... and not really caring about school outside of music lessons
	3:13pm notsoKWYET: I'll link it to you WWR
	3:13pm worldsworstrecords: thanks Dan x
	3:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - We were extraordinarily lucky with one Englosh teacher, the very aptly named Mrs Bennett who was passionate about the subject and knew ancient history and all sorts of things. :-) She taught us all the rude bits in Shakespeare ;-)
	3:13pm solo mon: Oh shoot it wasn’t mimsy farmer it’s Yvette mimeux she does flowers of evil by Baudelaire w a sitar artist, sitarist?
	3:14pm notsoKWYET: @paper ---- interesting. I actually LOVE to write poetry and really don't care for reading it. It's what I usually do when I'm in a bad space
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yvette Mimieux!!! That's it :-)
	3:14pm worldsworstrecords: another to check out, solo
	3:14pm notsoKWYET: @Solo --- I literally discovered and listened to a bit of that today. Someone posted it in the Far Out Sounds FB group
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I;ve written poems before but I much prefer reading other peoples :-)
	3:14pm Franco Twinkie: Did I miss the soup course?
	3:15pm notsoKWYET: I dunno what it is lately. .. but my mind melds are WAY UP
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It took me two years to get a copy of the Yvette Mimieux album but it was worth it
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Franco!
	3:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - It's the time of year. Thin veils and all that :-)
	3:16pm Franco Twinkie: Geogina Pizza Pie!
	3:16pm Paper Kosmonaut: I love to read poetry. I am always so impressed how people can make me cry with just a couple of well-chosen words. A piece of literature could never do that. I try myself, too, of course but I always feel unable to get it right enough.
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - :-)
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Paper - I'm the same. And songs are poems with music :-)
	3:18pm Paper Kosmonaut: "They shall not grow old" - also a hugely impressive filmic effort of Peter Jackson.
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - That's such an iconic poem. I saw so many people post that today
	3:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ok, this is the second track
	3:19pm Rich in Washington: this is lovely.
	3:20pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG- some songs really are high-level poetry indeed. Bowie's last album had songs that brought me to tears, even before he passed on. That's the last one that was able to do so.
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Both these albums are so pretty. I love Takashi Kokubo :-)
	3:20pm Domenic: that Yvette Mimieux LP is intense, some of you might not want to play on the air.. ;')
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Oh goodness yes!!! That whole album is a gut punch ...
	3:21pm Paper Kosmonaut: Sorry I talk too much.
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - I'm sure we're all game :-)
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Don't be silly!!! I encourage conversation here :-) Talk away, my friend! :-)
	3:22pm Domenic: My daughter criticized me once for liking poetry...(brought her to a reading once) she associated it with a certain persuasion...
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - What is rap if not poetry? :-)
	3:23pm Paper Kosmonaut: (-: I do not see that many people these days GG. I kinda miss my regular friday in the pub.
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Then you are most welcome here, my lovely friend :-)
	3:24pm Petey: damn - can't get on any of the streams but main FMU stream - anyone else?
	3:24pm Domenic: Rap is poetry. I'm not going to deliberately listen to Rap but its obvious its artistic.
	3:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - Oh dear! No sound at all?
	3:25pm Petey: nothing
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - I know that the pop ups were not playing ball last week. have you tried the 128k one?
	3:26pm Petey: lemme try that-thanks
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - Fingers crossed! :-)
	3:27pm Martinibomb: @domenic rap is also rhythm which is a foundation for music
	3:28pm Paper Kosmonaut: I now have this image of GG's voice flying like a curling long ribbon over endless sunny and silent poppy fields.
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - What a beautiful image!!
	3:28pm Domenic: Awesome @MartiniBomb..
	3:28pm Domenic: (my daughter is watching Zombieland Double Tap, she paused it and there is a scene in a tiki bar...)
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - Still not seen that although I loved the first one. I saw that at the cinema as part of an all night zombie marathon :-)
	3:29pm Domenic: More like an pad.. Rosario Dawson's place
	3:30pm Martinibomb: @GG I used to have this 6-8am slot at my local radio station and this is all I played on it.
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - WOW. That must have been so beautiful to hear that <3
	3:31pm Martinibomb: I wish we had a super chill show like this on every day on sheena in the morning - a really early one
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Aloha is always so much fun to do for me for that reason. Nice and calm and chill :-)
	3:34pm notsoKWYET: I love the cover of this record... that multi colour text is everything!
	3:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - I do love a bit of holo! :-)
	3:34pm Martinibomb: yeh maybe a robo one tho that's super early? like an AI chill out morning show sorta like Owl Sun
	3:35pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG- could you also give us a list of the poems you've read?
	3:35pm Martinibomb: only we pretend that it's busted and we just can't fix it.. so anything people tell it to play it only plays Kokubo
	3:35pm solo mon: Rise n Shine Sheenas
	3:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @KP - I can certainly try :-) Are you on the Facebook group? If not I can post them here later at the end of the comments or in the playlist description :-)
	3:36pm notsoKWYET: Rise N SHellllllOOOOoooOOOooOoOOOOOOooOO
	3:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This poem BROKE me :-(
	3:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That poem and the last one in today's show were the hardest for me.
	3:37pm Domenic: WWI was such a waste, all those young people..
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - And then they did it all over again :-(
	3:39pm Sonderangebot: I still don't get the reasons for starting WWI, which makes the losses seem even more absurd...
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Sondy - For me, the best tribute on Armistice Day would be for all wars to stop. Permanently. :-(
	3:40pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG I am not on any social media, so if you could do it here, that would be great.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Consider it done :-) It might be tomorrow tho, but I'll put it up in the description at the top of the page :-)
	3:41pm Paper Kosmonaut: Hear hear, Let's stop war forever.
	3:42pm Franco Twinkie: This is perfect for making me sit still.
	3:42pm Domenic: There's a great 3 part documentary about WW1 called "Long Shadow" Cambridge historian David Reynolds.. WW1 was complex to interpret, plus every country had a point of view with som many regime changes.. and WW2 changed its perception even more...
	3:42pm Sonderangebot: I agree GG, no more wars and disarm all.
	3:42pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG Thanks! <3
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - Happy to hear it! :-)
	3:43pm Martinibomb: I want more war! And then I want to pave the Earth so everyone has free parking! Mhahahahah
	3:43pm Franco Twinkie: But I still want a pizza!
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @FRanco - No pizza sadly ... I shall nourish with music :-)
	3:44pm Martinibomb: I want a pizza maze.. cause I like pizza and I like mazes.
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - If I knew there was a pizza at the end of it I would be around that maze in two seconds flat ;-)
	3:45pm Sonderangebot: Domenic it all started when some dude divided the Roman Empire I guess ;)
	3:46pm Martinibomb: @GG do you know how to solve a maze? Just pick side and follow it. Works every time. I take people thru mazes and they get angry with me because I solve them so fast. But it's ez!
	3:46pm solo mon: I learned about mazes from the enchanted forest.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - I'm trying to remember the last time I was in a maze I shall have to remember your strategy for next time tho :-)
	3:46pm Franco Twinkie: I didn't say YOU had to get me a pizza Georgy, I was just imagining how I could improve the situation around here.
	3:47pm Martinibomb: where is there a maze in the forrest? That mirror thing?
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - Aha!!! Well ... when you find one ... I'll happily share it :-)
	3:47pm Martinibomb: @GG for me.. I pick the left side and I just stay there. It's funny how well it works
	3:48pm notsoKWYET: This is really lovely...
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Especially if there's pizza involved :-)
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - I highly recommend both these albums :-)
	3:48pm Sonderangebot: I was obsessed with the cicadas sounds earlier!
	3:48pm Martinibomb: I don't mind getting lost in the pizza maze cause I can eat thru the walls!
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Sondy - It's lovely, isn't it? :-)
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Wait .. Is the maze MADE of pizza? Oh ... well that changes everything :-) Put me down for THAT :-)
	3:50pm Franco Twinkie: Yup, as soon as the little miss gets home I will go forage in the urban forest with a quiver full of arrows and shoot one out of a tree.
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Just ten more minutes and it's over to Martinibomb's for \|Medium Cool :-) www.wfmu.org...
	3:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to get dinner after this but I'll be back on Friday at 11am EST for Aloha Fridays! And then back after that at 4pm for the Flange :-)
	3:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - Rugged!! :-)
	3:52pm Sem: Thank you for this serene and reflective time we've had together, gg. See you and all again soon.
	3:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you for being here and for listening Sem! Always a pleasure to see you :-)
	3:53pm DJ GeorgyGirl: One more poem to go and it's the one that always gets to me
	3:54pm Paper Kosmonaut: I find it interesting how into this music, these soundscapes I actually am. I got to get me some more of this.
	3:55pm Paper Kosmonaut: all ears.
	3:55pm Mr Fab: Good time to play The Men They Couldn't Hangs' "Green fields of France."
	3:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK -Thank you! I'm glad you like it :-)
	3:56pm solo mon: Beautiful GG!

	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you solo! :-) <3 x
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - With pizza! :-)
	3:57pm Martinibomb: I think I'm just going to have to let Mr. Fab stream take over so we can blame him for ruining the mood. Heheheh Sorrrweee Mr. Fab!
	3:57pm Domenic: Very nice.
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm gonna cry now
	3:57pm Sonderangebot: MB don't worry life is about navigating different moods and emotions. :) Thanks you GG for a thoughtful moment.

	3:14pm notsoKWYET: @paper ---- interesting. I actually LOVE to write poetry and really don't care for reading it. It's what I usually do when I'm in a bad space
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yvette Mimieux!!! That's it :-)
	3:14pm worldsworstrecords: another to check out, solo
	3:14pm notsoKWYET: @Solo --- I literally discovered and listened to a bit of that today. Someone posted it in the Far Out Sounds FB group
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I;ve written poems before but I much prefer reading other peoples :-)
	3:14pm Franco Twinkie: Did I miss the soup course?
	3:15pm notsoKWYET: I dunno what it is lately. .. but my mind melds are WAY UP
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It took me two years to get a copy of the Yvette Mimieux album but it was worth it
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Franco!
	3:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - It's the time of year. Thin veils and all that :-)
	3:16pm Franco Twinkie: Geogina Pizza Pie!
	3:16pm Paper Kosmonaut: I love to read poetry. I am always so impressed how people can make me cry with just a couple of well-chosen words. A piece of literature could never do that. I try myself, too, of course but I always feel unable to get it right enough.
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - :-)
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Paper - I'm the same. And songs are poems with music :-)
	3:18pm Paper Kosmonaut: "They shall not grow old" - also a hugely impressive filmic effort of Peter Jackson.
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - That's such an iconic poem. I saw so many people post that today
	3:19pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ok, this is the second track
	3:19pm Rich in Washington: this is lovely.
	3:20pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG- some songs really are high-level poetry indeed. Bowie's last album had songs that brought me to tears, even before he passed on. That's the last one that was able to do so.
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Both these albums are so pretty. I love Takashi Kokubo :-)
	3:20pm Domenic: that Yvette Mimieux LP is intense, some of you might not want to play on the air.. ;')
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Oh goodness yes!!! That whole album is a gut punch ...
	3:21pm Paper Kosmonaut: Sorry I talk too much.
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - I'm sure we're all game :-)
	3:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Don't be silly!!! I encourage conversation here :-) Talk away, my friend! :-)
	3:22pm Domenic: My daughter criticized me once for liking poetry...(brought her to a reading once) she associated it with a certain persuasion...
	3:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - What is rap if not poetry? :-)
	3:23pm Paper Kosmonaut: (-: I do not see that many people these days GG. I kinda miss my regular friday in the pub.
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Then you are most welcome here, my lovely friend :-)
	3:24pm Petey: damn - can't get on any of the streams but main FMU stream - anyone else?
	3:24pm Domenic: Rap is poetry. I'm not going to deliberately listen to Rap but its obvious its artistic.
	3:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - Oh dear! No sound at all?
	3:25pm Petey: nothing
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - I know that the pop ups were not playing ball last week. have you tried the 128k one?
	3:26pm Petey: lemme try that-thanks
	3:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Petey - Fingers crossed! :-)
	3:27pm Martinibomb: @domenic rap is also rhythm which is a foundation for music
	3:28pm Paper Kosmonaut: I now have this image of GG's voice flying like a curling long ribbon over endless sunny and silent poppy fields.
	3:28pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - What a beautiful image!!
	3:28pm Domenic: Awesome @MartiniBomb..
	3:28pm Domenic: (my daughter is watching Zombieland Double Tap, she paused it and there is a scene in a tiki bar...)
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - Still not seen that although I loved the first one. I saw that at the cinema as part of an all night zombie marathon :-)
	3:29pm Domenic: More like an pad.. Rosario Dawson's place
	3:30pm Martinibomb: @GG I used to have this 6-8am slot at my local radio station and this is all I played on it.
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - WOW. That must have been so beautiful to hear that <3
	3:31pm Martinibomb: I wish we had a super chill show like this on every day on sheena in the morning - a really early one
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Aloha is always so much fun to do for me for that reason. Nice and calm and chill :-)
	3:34pm notsoKWYET: I love the cover of this record... that multi colour text is everything!
	3:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - I do love a bit of holo! :-)
	3:34pm Martinibomb: yeh maybe a robo one tho that's super early? like an AI chill out morning show sorta like Owl Sun
	3:35pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG- could you also give us a list of the poems you've read?
	3:35pm Martinibomb: only we pretend that it's busted and we just can't fix it.. so anything people tell it to play it only plays Kokubo
	3:35pm solo mon: Rise n Shine Sheenas
	3:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @KP - I can certainly try :-) Are you on the Facebook group? If not I can post them here later at the end of the comments or in the playlist description :-)
	3:36pm notsoKWYET: Rise N SHellllllOOOOoooOOOooOoOOOOOOooOO
	3:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This poem BROKE me :-(
	3:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: That poem and the last one in today's show were the hardest for me.
	3:37pm Domenic: WWI was such a waste, all those young people..
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Dom - And then they did it all over again :-(
	3:39pm Sonderangebot: I still don't get the reasons for starting WWI, which makes the losses seem even more absurd...
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Sondy - For me, the best tribute on Armistice Day would be for all wars to stop. Permanently. :-(
	3:40pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG I am not on any social media, so if you could do it here, that would be great.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @PK - Consider it done :-) It might be tomorrow tho, but I'll put it up in the description at the top of the page :-)
	3:41pm Paper Kosmonaut: Hear hear, Let's stop war forever.
	3:42pm Franco Twinkie: This is perfect for making me sit still.
	3:42pm Domenic: There's a great 3 part documentary about WW1 called "Long Shadow" Cambridge historian David Reynolds.. WW1 was complex to interpret, plus every country had a point of view with som many regime changes.. and WW2 changed its perception even more...
	3:42pm Sonderangebot: I agree GG, no more wars and disarm all.
	3:42pm Paper Kosmonaut: GG Thanks! <3
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - Happy to hear it! :-)
	3:43pm Martinibomb: I want more war! And then I want to pave the Earth so everyone has free parking! Mhahahahah
	3:43pm Franco Twinkie: But I still want a pizza!
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @FRanco - No pizza sadly ... I shall nourish with music :-)
	3:44pm Martinibomb: I want a pizza maze.. cause I like pizza and I like mazes.
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - If I knew there was a pizza at the end of it I would be around that maze in two seconds flat ;-)
	3:45pm Sonderangebot: Domenic it all started when some dude divided the Roman Empire I guess ;)
	3:46pm Martinibomb: @GG do you know how to solve a maze? Just pick side and follow it. Works every time. I take people thru mazes and they get angry with me because I solve them so fast. But it's ez!
	3:46pm solo mon: I learned about mazes from the enchanted forest.
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - I'm trying to remember the last time I was in a maze I shall have to remember your strategy for next time tho :-)
	3:46pm Franco Twinkie: I didn't say YOU had to get me a pizza Georgy, I was just imagining how I could improve the situation around here.
	3:47pm Martinibomb: where is there a maze in the forrest? That mirror thing?
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Franco - Aha!!! Well ... when you find one ... I'll happily share it :-)
	3:47pm Martinibomb: @GG for me.. I pick the left side and I just stay there. It's funny how well it works
	3:48pm notsoKWYET: This is really lovely...
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Especially if there's pizza involved :-)
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @NSK - I highly recommend both these albums :-)
	3:48pm Sonderangebot: I was obsessed with the cicadas sounds earlier!
	3:48pm Martinibomb: I don't mind getting lost in the pizza maze cause I can eat thru the walls!
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Sondy - It's lovely, isn't it? :-)
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - Wait .. Is the maze MADE of pizza? Oh ... well that changes everything :-) Put me down for THAT :-)
	3:50pm Franco Twinkie: Yup, as soon as the little miss gets home I will go forage in the urban forest with a quiver full of arrows and shoot one out of a tree.
	3:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Just ten more minutes and it's over to Martinibomb's for \|Medium Cool :-) www.wfmu.org...
	3:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm going to get dinner after this but I'll be back on Friday at 11am EST for Aloha Fridays! And then back after that at 4pm for the Flange :-)
