If you eat a pro-biotic and take anti-biotics at the same time, do they cancel eachother out?

Hey Frank, I'm going back to bed. Nice to see you. Do you know your hair is sticking straight up on top?

Sat. 7/18/09 2:47am From: peetyL

Awesome, Frank. Dig the "radio hair."

Sat. 7/18/09 2:48am From: Bopozog

That was pretty funny. Don't do drugs. Drugs are bad m'kay

Sat. 7/18/09 2:49am From: Neal

Frank I can't see your hair. I prefer to go for the genuine old fashioned radio experience, and make the pictures in my head. Nice hat, by the way.

Sat. 7/18/09 2:52am From: Bopozog

OMG Your bending time

Sat. 7/18/09 2:53am From: peetyL

I'm listening to the UStream feed, the Windows Media Player feed with its delay, and your madplayer delay at the same time--quite a listening experience...

Cronkite was in the news a couple of years ago when he came out against the war in Iraq and conservatives started calling him a cut and run commie.

There's a bronze Jim Henson statue on the campus of the University of Maryland. He's sitting on a bench talking to Kermit.

Sat. 7/18/09 3:15am From: Toronto Jim

Second death of the Cronkite "three"? How about Queen Elizabeth? Ain't she just about due?

Math question is a strange choice for a CAPTCHA (computers can do math), but guess it works, at least it trips up the "off the shelf" spambots that just submit a junk to every form they can find.

Sat. 7/18/09 3:23am From: Brandon

There's a freaking Billy Mays Commercial on!!!
Didn't he die?...
Isn't that like sacreligious or something??

Sat. 7/18/09 3:24am From: Neal

There's not likely to be spam bots in here anyway, because a new playlist starts every three of four hours for each new show, and the bot would have to find it.

Neal, if it was your LEFT wrist, that means at least it was "someone else" in your dream.

True. Speaking ill of Tim's is blasphemous.

I totally want to drive to New York right now and hit Timmy's. This is cruel and unusual, Frank!

See, you Canadian folks can just walk down the street and get a Double Double, but for me, It's a haul. It used to be 3 hours to the nearest one, in deepest, darkest Connecticut.

Ribfest isn't until the first weekend in September, Jim. I'll be up for it.

Sat. 7/18/09 3:53am From: Toronto Jim

JimSally? Sounds vaguely feminine to me. And I've never heard of you.

The original tapes were digital tapes, and they had no way to back up the 220,000 tapes of data. If they had the kind of storage we have now...

Sat. 7/18/09 4:39am From: JimSally CAN

Rice Balls!

Sat. 7/18/09 4:39am From: Brandon

The marshmallow is a confection that, in its modern form, typically consists of sugar or corn syrup, water, gelatin that has been softened in hot water, dextrose, and flavorings, whipped to a spongy consistency

Sat. 7/18/09 4:40am From: JimSally CAN

From Wikipedia:
"The traditional marshmallow recipe uses powdered marshmallow root, which may be difficult to obtain. Most commercially manufactured marshmallows instead use gelatin in their manufacture(...)"

Good night ladies and gents, it's bedy bye time for sally. See you'se next week

Sat. 7/18/09 4:44am From: Toronto Jim

Speaking of Jell-o, does anyone else remember "Junket?" It was like a milky gelatin dessert, as opposed to a clear, water-based one.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:45am From: escapist

Brandon, re; screamin... I feel your pain brother.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:45am From: JimSally CAN

I remember Junket I think, the hospital my mom worked at had it in the Cafeteria

It's called the Willis Tower now, but the Sears Tower IS the tallest building in the U.S.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:48am From: Toronto Jim

Yeah, we kinda didn't like Junket very much, but my grandmother would make it for us a lot. It had less "solidity" than Jell-o, and I think it was always strawberry-flavoured.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:49am From: Escaipist

Doing a meet and greet w/ BOC tomorrow night at their Canyon Club show. Long time firends. Want a t-shirt?

Sat. 7/18/09 4:50am From: Escapist

Invite was for FEN.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:50am From: Rampler

which BOC? Boards of Canada, or Blue Oyster Cult?

Sat. 7/18/09 4:51am From: Escapist

the latter.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:52am From: Toronto Jim

Maybe BOC means "Box of Cash," a cool local Toronto combo who do Johnny Cash cover tunes. The drummer uses brushes on a big upturned cardboard box.

Sat. 7/18/09 4:53am From: Rampler

I would live a t-shirt, I am a big fan of both BOC's!! "Madness to the Method", great song...

There is a certain etherial romance about doing a late night radio/television show. It envokes the creative essence of the on air talent. An essence that is necessary.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:14am From: peetyL

You're right Frank. 1959. It just looks older...animation wasn't as good in my opinion

Sat. 7/18/09 5:17am From: Toronto Jim

I think I recall the "Jokers" pinball machine. But, when I was quote young, there was a truly OLD machine at the local bowling alley called "Blue Chip." So ancient, it had the old roll-over score numbers.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:17am From: Joshua K

If you don't get the ramp then you don't deserve to be called the rampler

Sat. 7/18/09 5:22am From: Toronto Jim

That Yonge Street arcade was the one that all the small-town runaways went to when they got into town. There they would be lured into under-age prostitution.

Toronto Jim, I was in a music video that my friends band shot in TO... right on Bay St.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:25am From: Brandon

about 4 blocks from Union Station

Sat. 7/18/09 5:25am From: Toronto Jim

Oh, yeah -- lots of Tim Horton's along Yonge Street. Yonge Street, by the way, used to be in the Guiness World Record Book as the longest street in the world! (because it eventually turned into a highway and went way, way up north into cottage country)

Sat. 7/18/09 5:26am From: Toronto Jim

Bay Street is the central business district. It's parallel to Yonge, one block east, for those who care.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:26am From: mannythemailman

I went to the CN tower in Toronto and they had one of those glass floor observation areas

Sat. 7/18/09 5:27am From: Brandon

Bay st. was basically shut down for the vid shoot...Hello Operator's Take Me Away vid if anyone cares...lol

Sat. 7/18/09 5:28am From: Toronto Jim

The CN Tower, as of last year, is no longer the tallest structure in the world -- some new building in Dubai is now taller.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:30am From: Brandon

I live 55 mins from TO, and in all of my 28 years, I've never been in the CN Tower

Sat. 7/18/09 5:32am From: Toronto Jim

Brandon: You really should go up the tower some time. Though many here think of it as a silly tourist place, the view truly is stunning. (I once walked up the stairs of the tower, for charity. Took about an hour. Sore legs!)

Sat. 7/18/09 5:33am From: mannythemailman

I live 15 miles from the Statue of Liberty and it took me 46 years to get to see it.

Sat. 7/18/09 5:34am From: Brandon

It's funny, I go to TO ALOT, and have stood at the foot of it many times...I often toy with the idea of walking up or taking the elevator...but then realize I have something else to do that takes priority...lol
