I think McCain picked her only because he wants to get busy with her

Wed. 9/3/08 9:03am From: dei xhrist

Ken's back! Have you brought recipes for that foot that washed up in the Sea Donkey?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:04am From: C

Welcome back, Ken. Loved the boat show!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:06am From: Ken

I liked that foot so much, I sewed it on! If you can x

Wed. 9/3/08 9:07am From: Lizardner Dave

Actually, I think Sea Donkey should be the new name for SSD. Has a nice ring, doesn't it? "Sea Donkey with Ken and Andy".

Almost as good as "Happiness Hut".

Wed. 9/3/08 9:08am From: GP

Ken..glad to have you back on terra firma. Morning all. Is it just me or does Miss Wasilla sound like Julia Sweeney ( "PAT" )f ormerly of Saturday Night Live?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:12am From: GP

I hear there is a nice photo of her in go-go boots a la Nancy Sinatra.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:13am From: gumby

I feel various disfigurements of this picture are coming soon.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:16am From: PodSean

....Digging this song.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:17am From: JJZ

http://tinyurl.com/5ueat6 is one that's been popular on Yahoo's Most Emailed Photo page.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:17am From: stu

Hi Ken -
hope you play at least one Jerry Reid song, even if it's at the wrong speed. Thanks.

Sarah Palin may be broke but she's not flat busted

Wed. 9/3/08 9:20am From: Bad Ronald

Photoshopped but fun:

Wed. 9/3/08 9:20am From: MeYOW

I'll let the headlines speak for themselves; on Yahoo this morning, "Palins Pork requests" ; Gentlemen, the line forms on the right.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:21am From: annie

what was the publication?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:24am From: gumby

Hubba-hubba. A leather mini skirt in Alaska? She is one tough tiger! GRRRR!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:26am From: annie

can you say: photoshop?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:27am From: Bad Ronald

"Hubba-Hubba" - Sounds more like Bugs Bunny than Gumby...

Wed. 9/3/08 9:29am From: Laurie

Kenny, please post that picture of Palin in her office with the monster crab and bear pelt.

Thank you.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:30am From: gumby

photoship, photoslip, photosynthesis....
No I guess not.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:30am From: Laurie

Here you go: http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2008/08/29/us/30palin3.large.jpg

NO PHOTOSHOP HERE. Seriously. :(

That's her actual office.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:31am From: annie

...... might be her office, but the photo is faked; it has to be... why would she dress like that?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:32am From: mp

tina fey would have been a better choice.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:33am From: Ken

Quite a pic Laurie! Can someone edit it down to 270 pixels wide? Can anybody find the photo of Sarah Palin at Appomatox?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:33am From: owen

what's so strange? surely no-one can complete administative work without a bear?

Wed. 9/3/08 9:35am From: Laurie

I'm more freaked out by the monster crab. Please note that this picture ran in the New York Times. MY GOD.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:39am From: gigantor

270-pixel Palin with bear on the way!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:40am From: jodie

Yep, guess that's why they call it Alaskan KING Crab...

Wed. 9/3/08 9:40am From: Bad Ronald

She does kinda look like joyce dewitt.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:41am From: Laurie

Here's a picture of Palin I barely photoshopped: http://i36.tinypic.com/o1kwo.jpg

Her button includes a crass acronym now!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:41am From: owen

well, speak for yourself laurie. i personally just dont feel comfortable in a room without a freakish monster crab.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:41am From: dei x

oh, you only wanted US history... jingoist!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:42am From: Laurie

270 wide pic of her craaaaazy office: http://i36.tinypic.com/1jotbk.jpg

Wed. 9/3/08 9:42am From: dei x

of course I'm only getting the Miss Wasilla = Palin now...

Wed. 9/3/08 9:44am From: Ghengis Jung

Interesting that Ms. Palin is the only one smiling at LBJ's swearing in...

Wed. 9/3/08 9:45am From: Bad Ronald

She shot Kennedy.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:46am From: Laurie

Hot: http://images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/f/f3/Palin_M4.jpg

Wed. 9/3/08 9:47am From: Ken

270 pixels wide everybody! You're gonna crash the playlist!

Wed. 9/3/08 9:48am From: Nick the Bard

After seeing what a coconut crab can become, that crab in her office is pretty underwhelming.

Wed. 9/3/08 9:48am From: pseu

Laurie -- now I SEE it says flat BUSTED not flat CHESTED! makes sense...

Wed. 9/3/08 9:50am From: Laurie

Oooooooh you're right, Pseu. I feel silly.

PS: This is funny but true. Sad. Also, not 270 pixels wide.

That Community Chest picture looks like Peggy Hill from "King of the Hill"

Wed. 9/3/08 10:00am From: pseu

I still think she looks like Lara Jill Miller from the Nell Carter smash "Gimme A Break": http://www.younghollywoodhof.com/drina/lara.jpg

Wed. 9/3/08 10:04am From: Ken From Hyde Park

I'm back from vacation in N. Dakota. They have radio there but no stations like WFMU. I heard a lot of the same songs that they were playing back in the 80s.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:05am From: Laurie

If you guys have some time to kill, the Sarah Palin entry on the Encyclopedia Dramatica is worth checking out. SOOOOOOO NSFW.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:06am From: Mark

or perhaps she lools like Marcy from Married With Children
http://www.triviatribute.com/images4/amandabearse4.jpg

Wed. 9/3/08 10:06am From: GP

Whoever sent that Peggy Hill / Sarah Palin separated at birth photo...too funny. Thanks for that

Wed. 9/3/08 10:09am From: Laurie

Ken, were you just using Tom Scharpling's voice modulator?

Wed. 9/3/08 10:11am From: gumby

The really frightening thing about the Peggy Hill similarity is that I bet a whole lotta people would vote for Peggy Hill for VP or Prez.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:13am From: Mark

Peggy Hill is more qualified

Wed. 9/3/08 10:15am From: gumby

I wouldn't vote for Peggy Hill, she's not my kind. No claymation.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:16am From: elvie

how about phyllis schlafly for VP?

Wed. 9/3/08 10:17am From: Mark

Yeah I'd vote for Davy or Goliath too

Wed. 9/3/08 10:22am From: gumby

I beleive neither Davy or Goliath meet the 35 years of age requirement.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:23am From: gumby

Not to mention there overdeveloped sense of conscience. Washington would devour them.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:23am From: no no age

Damn, Ken, go easy on us

Wed. 9/3/08 10:24am From: maria

this makes me feel all warm and fuzzy outside

Wed. 9/3/08 10:25am From: GP

Lighters held aloft....swaying arm-in-arm...tears

Wed. 9/3/08 10:25am From: Lizardner Dave

Say what you will about the GOP VP nominee, but this is the hottest playlist Ken's ever had.

I wonder what Raad Man, wherever he is, thinks about Sarah Palin?

Wed. 9/3/08 10:26am From: stingy d

OH MY! Madame Vice President! She has such nice legs! i vote for the best tuchus!

Wed. 9/3/08 10:27am From: Mark

I don't know I think this is a current picture of Davey

Wed. 9/3/08 10:27am From: Harvey

I'm fairly sure I'm going to be a changed man after this show

I think we all just came home, a little bit, in here (pointing to heart).

Yummm, she reads sports too? Is there anything she can't do..( Homer Simpson drool sound)

Wed. 9/3/08 10:43am From: gumby

A new FMU program - Kenny G & The VP read sports.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:45am From: stingy dQ

hey kenny does this song have any roots in Komeda??

Wed. 9/3/08 10:46am From: Laurie

Too crass?

I'm betting Irwin will have a strong rebuttal to this show.

Heh heh, I said "butt".

Check out her jumpshot!!

Hmmm..Talking Head, Outdoorsie poser, trophy bagger with no foreign policy experience. She may be too qualified to be this parties candidate.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:52am From: wrysmilie

Is that a young Chuck Norris she's with? The fans on the wall are classic.

Wed. 9/3/08 10:58am From: anne

i first heard of the great kat when she appeared on the Joan Rivers Show. Joan Rivers was doing a week of music on her show, she had GWAR appear too. it was a dream for me as a high schooler to see GWAR on Joan Rivers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWRKlNlRsgI

anyhow, i bought a great kat tape subsequently, which had her phone # in it! so i called the # and the great kat answered! she got angry and accused me of being on drugs right off the bat. then why did she include her phone number in the cassette liner notes? that was my brief brush with the great kat. she's a juilliard graduate apparently.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:01am From: dc

GWAR on Joan Rivers! Yoiks.

And thanks.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:06am From: GP

GWAR "ON " Joan Rivers..Yoiks indeed

GWAR appearing on the Joan Rivers show...priceless : )

Wed. 9/3/08 11:06am From: Karen in Sleepy Hollow

Hey Ken, When will the gold vinyl and SSD DVD be ready?

Wed. 9/3/08 11:10am From: Mark

Ken is this a prediction of a coming Muskie moment for Sarah Palin?

Wed. 9/3/08 11:16am From: Ken

Karen - DVD is mastered, the Gold record is still being worked on.

Hm... Andy Cohen and Frangry are the same as (The) Night People? I've been slowly listening to the archives of those, and they talked about covering for Seven Second Delay, but I didn't quite get around to listening to the fill-in because it wasn't part of my spoon-fed ipod podcast setup.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:30am From: GP

For some reason that old Disco Duck song is stuck in my mind..weird, as I have not heard that tune in years

Wed. 9/3/08 11:31am From: Gigantor

Or perhaps an Eagleton moment?

Wed. 9/3/08 11:31am From: Parq

GP, one possible reason - Gaylord opened his show the other night with a Rick Dees aircheck from back in the day. Just a guess.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:33am From: Listener from Finland

Hello Ken!!

When'll 7sd be back?

Wed. 9/3/08 11:33am From: GP

Parq...I think you got it...subliminally tuned into that vibe

Wed. 9/3/08 11:34am From: Mark

I thought Other Music didn't open until nnon

Wed. 9/3/08 11:34am From: Mark

or noon

Wed. 9/3/08 11:35am From: Richard

There were only 8 people at opening time for the Wire tix so go for it...
Thanks FMU!

Wed. 9/3/08 11:37am From: Sean Daily

Re: Flag bikini on Palin - Snopes.com called bullshit on that.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:37am From: gumby

Hey Ken, does your face hurt?

Wed. 9/3/08 11:38am From: Karen in Sleepy Hollow

Oh my god, no coffee at FMU!

Wed. 9/3/08 11:39am From: gumby

It's killin' me!!!!!!:):):)

Wed. 9/3/08 11:39am From: Richard

Ken, can you remind me of where the grant for the free shows came from? Yes The Ex show was fantastic!!

Wed. 9/3/08 11:41am From: dei x

Let the healing luv of our playlist comments bring you back to par! And a tube of aloe with tea tree oil.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:41am From: tim

Yaphet KOTTO (rhymes with PHOTO). A cushion between the knees (your knees) while sleeping can help relieve the dull, lingering pain of sciatica. Something to do w taking pressure off the lower vertebrae. Sorry about your face.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:45am From: Ken

I knew I was pronouncing Kotto wrong.. who the hell was he again? Richard - the grant was from Elliot Spitzer, Client #9!

Wed. 9/3/08 11:50am From: stingy d

dear ken,

are those strangelets, these strangelets... ( http://www.myspace.com/timmgouin )????
thank you for playing riot on planet 10.

sincerely,
anthony mason

Wed. 9/3/08 11:52am From: Ike

JJZ, unless I am very confused, those are different people. I heard a bit of AC & Frangry and I laughed.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:53am From: Dei x

A few years ago, I bought an electric muscle stimulator from a Taiwan or Hong Kong manufacturer. While it does not replace a skilled back rub, the electrical pulses on this model are supposed to simulate acupuncture, cupping, and rolfing. Kinda does the job, on the job. And you don't have to buy it dinner.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:53am From: gumby

put your knee out if front of you while seated, bend the leg underneath. Cross the other leg over the knee and stretch your lower back towards your knee. That's good for the psiatic nerve. Sorry about the face crack (but it is one of my favorite jokes)

Wed. 9/3/08 11:54am From: Lizardner Dave

Yaphet Kotto was the police chief on the very underrated Homicde: Life on the Street. He was also a bad guy in the Bond flick with Roger Moore that had voodoo in it, I think.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:55am From: elvie

yeah, and he was part italian on that show.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:57am From: Ike

The first 3-4 years of Homicide were brilliant. And that Bond flick is hilariously stupid because all the black people in Harlem are conspiring against James Bond. "Honkie at five o'clock!"

Wed. 9/3/08 11:58am From: Denise in Washington, DC

I cannot adequately convey how much joy your Palin pix have brought me.

Wed. 9/3/08 11:58am From: jan

Ah, the teletubbies- always great to hear

Wed. 9/3/08 12:00pm From: Sean Daily

The Teletubbies are the O-negative (the type O-negative, if you will) of remixes!

Wed. 9/3/08 12:01pm From: paul

the best show doesn't have an Andy!

Wed. 9/3/08 12:04pm From: JJZ

Ah, my confusion stems from them noting they did a fill-in for SSD, but then the only one in recent history I saw was for Andy Cohen and Frangry.

Listener comments!
