I expect to get a lot done today, particularly between the hours of nine and noon, Eastern Time. Unless they actually put somebody interesting on as a guest host. Maybe they’ll just have the Turds do six hours. Well, I suppose I should go look out the window and see if we really got all that snow they were threatening us with. If we really got a foot of wet, heavy snow last night, I’l have to wake up da wife and get her crackin’ with the shovel.
😯 live from radio city music hall blog comment #1
Anything to get him out of running AAR.
So who the hell is this guy on AAR? The bus was late as usual this morning, and I’m confused (also as usual). He’s making me miss the Young Turds. Which takes some doing.
I feel Amy Winehouse coming on. :alc:
Shit, News Daddy isn’t even here today. Aaargh.
Top of the Day. This is the Bill Press Show Ahhhhhh.
Do Not Give fox Validity. :no:
ARREST! IMPEACH! then V.
Morning / Evening :yinyang:
A bit past midnight east coast time he saw a big news story on yahoo and, I think, the LA times, about some North Korean refugees talking about the conditions in the North. At 1:00 he went to show me and the story was gone, vanished. By two o’clock there was a story about the six-party peace talks. Anyone see/hear anything about this? 😯
Haven’t heard anything KK.
The Youg Turks are still doing there webcast so I guess Green replaced them as well?
Carl Jeffers is subbing for the Young Ticks today. He calls himself a progressive moderate, and refuses to call fearless leader anything but George Bush, President Bush, or The President.
This is the future of AAR.
Yeah Web this guy sounds like a total **ssy.
Andy refuses to engage in The Culture of Cruelty. :pope:
Bil Pressed Suit wants Dem debates on Fox News, and castigated Imus for calling CBS execs “money grubbing bastards”. Another total **ssy.
We have entered a black hole of progressive morning talk I fear. The curse of Pashman :reaper: is omnipotent.
Hey all, pictures up!
Well I accomplished most of my mission tonight at the novaM Birthday bash. Sorry Kevin but I did not get any pictures of me and Mama kissing, in fact, I didn’t get to even see her except in the little VIP room through several panes of glass. She must have made her appearance early and left early, because you know Mama has to go to bed at stupid o’clock and get up at insane o’clock. :yawn:
But there is quite a lot to tell, the most important of which is that i got to talk to Sheldon Drobny for quite a while and they are definitely talking to Marc AND Sam but they are giving them a break since they have both been traumatized. Sheldon was really nice and I could see that him and his wife were definitely what was so great about AAR in the beginning. They brought in all the interesting and edgy folks that Goldfuck and now the Greens have discarded. So, I am VERY heartened indeed!
Mike Malloy was SUCH a flirt! These women practically :boobs: They were all over him! He had a huge line of people that he was still talking/photographing and flirting when I left. He was amazing.
Bill and Thom were manning their books. I felt really bad about not being able to buy their books. If I had had the dough i would have because I felt embarrassed not having a book for them to sign. But I don’t really care about autographs anyways.
It sounds like Jeffers is Colin Powell’s personal apologist. Maybe I’ll call into lionel and ask him if he did call Rachel a thick necked dyke.
Alright Krista!! That definitely sounds like good news.
HarrisonLee Rayburn is on for Sam. OK, I’m willing to listen to him. Damn, he sounds like Harrison.Kristapea, great regarding Marc … and Sam … I am :nuts: for Marc :love: … must get Tea :joe: :hot: 😉
A.I.V. … Tell Me Baby … Red :hot: C. P.
Hey PJ check your email!
Saw it, KP. I sent him an e-mail, offering whatever information I can provide.
Malloy reminds me of Duke from Doonesbury in your pictures, KP.
Unfortunately I did not check my settings before my friend took the pics and the flash was off which always causes blurriness with my camera. But I kind of like the way they came out.
Damn, he got back to me already.
Another alternative for 9:00 – 12:00 here.
Drobny got back to you, PJ??
Yep, I sent you an e-mail.
Crap! I’m so bummed I missed Stephanie and all because I didn’t want to get there too early not thinking that Steph was likely to leave early :smack:
OK Krista and PJ what just happened?
C’mon emails to Drobny, what’s going on?
Oh, KP got to speak to him at the shindig last night, and she mentioned our little family here, and he asked her to pass along some contact information. So, I e-mailed him. Not sure what, if anything, it’ll turn out to be about, but if I get any actual information, I’ll pass it along.
Very cool! The fact that he got back to you so quickly must say something.
Sheldon Drobny wanted to contact PJ about the blog. I told Sheldon what the numbers, as far as visitors here, and he was impressed. He seemed very intent on getting Sam and Marc but the issue is gonna be money I think. Malloy echoed that when I talked to him about Sam and Marc. I thanked Malloy for his support of both of them. I told Sheldon how Sam and Marc could attract young people and felt that was important. He also realizes how important the internet is and, obviously wants to utilize that more. He really was a great guy to talk to and I was left with a lot of confidence that he’ll get Sam and Marc a show eventually, somehow. I wish I had money to invest, because I think that the way is clear for NovaM, now. I think they have a good chance of building a great network and community. There’s so many more things i wanted to ask but was carried where the conversation went.
Well Krista without any authority whatsoever, I hereby award you the Morning Seditionists Gold Star of Achievement for meritorious service.
Congratulations!
You’ll notice it’s suitable for framing.
I told Sheldon that everyone here was cancelling their AAR premium subscriptions(if they can 😕 ) after Sam’s last weekday show.
Thanks Andy! 😀 :fire:
Of course! :love:
Yeah, I’m even listening to Stephanie Miller this morning. So, how’s this Jeff Farias guy? Should I start setting up to record his show?
Jeff is a great guy, I like his show. Being a musician he mixes in some live music in his show a lot. His show is gonna be more local, though. The last hour is John Zogby’s show with Jeff, Pulse of the Nation.
Hello from Hospital Land :slap: :cold: :slap: :dancers: :omg:
It is a mess out there with all kindsa slippin’ & slidin’ going on. Jeep rollover on the thruway at our exit.
Hey, PJ. Please shovel the driveway & don’t get a heart attack :no: — the shit is pretty damn heavy & wet 😮 :billcat:
Have a good day all –back to the snowy salt mines :barf:
Don’t worry, I got the shovel out for ya. 😉
so, who is in sammys slot today?…who is in turkey’s slot?
Im just done, done , done…if they ever get round to posting ring of fire, then Ill download it…but we’ll have to see if premium is really necessary for the weekend shows.
Listening again to the very smart social commentary of marc and Janeane…and the crazy loud ranting of henry, which also contains alot of really smart social commentary, just lacking in maturity or whatever….
It reminded me of what it was back then…and Im not gonna try to dumb down to hang on to whatever it was that worked there.
When Sammy and Marc are on anywhere, be it HBO, Nova or live in the subway with a tip jar (,unlikely) Ill be there….
Its actually pretty freeing to all of them to have time to actually consider and create rather than deal with the corporate crap hole of whats involved in working with this “network”
There are huge floods and Im so happy to be stuck here today so I can try to catch up ….
Premium is not required for weekend shows (except for Flanders). ROF podcast feed is posted on the right, there. Not sure what the other ones might be, since that’s currently the only one I bother with.
thanks pj…I hate to desert the sinking ship, tho I just wrote a scathing comment on another blog about Mark Green’s answer to all the mail about sammy….Im finished….I refuse to dumb down so that Green can further himself nationally….
All of the weekend shows are supposed to be available for free downloads. I used to DL Steve Earle but now whenever I try it takes me to the premium signup page. I have submitted several work tickets but have never received a reply.
Perhaps someone hear knows the secret handshake.
Anyway, it’s good morning, NPR, for me a great Neil Sedaka interview on Fresh Air.
Thanks to all of the ladies for representing and reporting this weekend.
Actually, there are always ways around pretty much everything, especially if the people running the show aren’t too bright.
WebHubbleTelescope re 12 :rofl2: , Yes, I luv Billll :love: ahhhh I believe you don’t 😉 :rofl2: :pirate: :rofl2: [he is one of the few left — MARC IS THE BEST ❗ ] but I almost called in …. I was sickened with his support for fox … 🙄 ! … now It is E-Mail …. YEA

Virginia tech story what we’re following at MRR blog.
50 peeps either dead or wounded from a campus ’shooter’.
Comment by Sunshine Jim — April 16, 2007 @ 12:59 pm
I have to get up on the VPI thing. That is crazy. I am trying to remember if I know anyone there. When I first heard this morning it was only one. Wow. Reading about it now. OMG!
Malloy was being ravaged by these Code Pink women. It was hilarious and he was extremely approachable. One woman just started nibbling him behind his ear! I was kinda embarrassed 😳 but Mike was being extremely gracious about it.
I gotta go, but I guess I’ll catch this story in the car.
Dear Vernon, Rats. re 47 :reaper: At least they are reminding me now how to be “fast on my feet” (thank you my Grandmother).
a.i.v. … Anything Goes … We Are The Story Red :hot: C. P.
Kristapea, thanks for the heartening news. I’ll keep hoping.
This morning I tuned into Armstrong and Greenbean, as I drove to work. The question of the day was something about Al Franken being fit to run for senator. Greenbean opined that Frankin would be a bad senator ’cause he would make jokes instead of being serious. (He said nothing about the joke Frankin would be replacing in the senate.)
I have never been able to listen for more than 5 minutes. This morning was no exception.
Since Green wants a program with less substance, perhaps he’ll syndicate Armstrong and Greenbean, as they have NO substance at all.
King Kong re 6, My Main Man in the East 😉
Yes, I heard what you heard … I thought I would hear later but never did. I “heard” on different “radio talk/news shows. I Heard “Them” the several refugees (male) speak. I will call a wee bit later down in LA and find out if they know anything but they aren’t “aware” of much now. I will sit quiet later and see if I can remember. I am still checking some other e-newsreports.
But this is AT LEAST the 3rd to 5th reports that have”disappeared” regarding N. Korea, recently — from both sides :smack: :paranoid: … Aren’t we living a SciFi/Fan Novel? 😉
A.I.V. By The Way … Red :hot: C. P.
wvmc3d, ANY updates please … I heard from the one then 19 and/or 21 or 22 shot … some survive ……..Thom just reported. They are reporting 22 died. I am sorry, I was “keying” in on other stories.

Nevermind Vernon, Thom has been giving different and valid comments re VA Tech … a.i.v.
He’s a Cancer, SeanMS. HE, Mike, ate it up. Code Pink :rofl2:
Now Kathy I would be curious about … :rofl2: 😉 8)
a.i.v. … Minor Thing … Red :hot: C. P.
:yippee: burrito……
🙁 dont say cancer……
Dear SeanMS: Cancer: It is The Cardinal sign of Water. It is also symbolized as The Moon Tarot. It just is a tad bit of a Crab. They are cute and sweet (and at times good to eat). …. It is a Grand Slow Death, normally. A person can say a long good-bye, if they have the funds. :bow: They just need a Good And Grand And Proper Death. Blessings Dear SeanMs. I did not think this would hurt some. I am Sorry. … :yinyang: There is Good and Bad In All Things — It Is How One Perceives.

isnt code pink the group that sponsored the beauty who stood behind valerie plame in those hearings…?

Holy shit. 30 dead? Anybody still want to talk about Imus? This country is so diseased. :sammy:

good Kos thread by FleetAdmiral, he was at Virginia tech this morning.

Greetings fellow bloggers, home early today because there’s no power in Media. I just wish I got paid for the time that I miss.
so every time
mike thinks codepink
his earlobe is going to tingle?
Maybe this is inappropriate, but how are the Repugs going to spin this tragedy at VA Tech?
eya andy aka Aquaman!
good stuff upbloggie, lunch time for me then back to it.
they’ll bring up that shooting during clintons watch.
rumour has it he was bummed about his girlfriend.
we’ll see,
meanwhile everything else will be sliding under the news horizon and into the memory hole.
I’m worried that they’ll decide that the shooter was an illegal or a terrorist and then ratchet up the police state.
i’d say that
pointing out that
this is what Iraq is like
daily might stir a little compassion.
yupper.
fairly easy to
think like a neocon
when you know what they do.
hee!
the best smileys on the web!

about same time Jim, since I was 13 1/2yrs — ALONE except for what I saw — it is grand you have kept Sunny …
I joined with Dave Foreman and Paul Watson and the like. A totally different belief but I believe ALL are part of the whole. 😉 :smack: 😉

I wish I had more of the 😡 Manic side or “maniac” . But I am called Mad Morrigan …. (I even lived in Mad River 😡 ness :rofl2: ) Without PJ I probably would have forgotten how to laugh … However, Marc included ” …those without a sense of humour” :nod: .)
a.i.v. Keep Holding On … Avril Lavigne (loop)
Krista, cool pix. I had no idea the Code Pink women were so… horny? Poor Mike. He’ll never be able to interview Medea Benjamin again without popping a chubby. :hubba:
It’ll be interesting to see what transpires with Drobny. You should charge him a finder’s fee if he picks up Marc and/or Sam! 😀
So I guess they’ll have to postpone Gonzo’s testimony. As long as crazed students are shooting up college campuses, Gonzo needs to be out there waterboarding suspects to keep us safe. Right?
:fu:
up to 50 peeps down at Va.tech
30 or so dead. bad craziness.

Comment by Sue P — April 16, 2007 @ 1:24 pm
I don’t get it. The Repigs used to LOVE it when Bob Dole made jokes. Maybe they prefer amateur comedians to professionals. :nana:
back to it!
love ya all!
I want to share here… Sammy the Seal (on ice) just put what I said and the Action that is willed , as #1 post after some of the ” stars” on site to Save the Seal — Sammy Site. Even Al Gore WAS online when what I wrote was put up.(They/Sammy checks all and puts where he feels the Comment is to be. Before I was mid-page but now Alpha (joke) . 😳 blush It will not be there long, I think … since there are many listings … be one 😉
a.i.v. Keep Holding On … (loop) Avril Lavigne
PJ…Are you around on skype or regular phone for a few mins?
I got caught up in feeding the boys and blogging…but I dont want to wait till 24 and suddenly not have talked to you….are you busy?
You can call me on skype, if you want. It’ll give me a chance to test the gateway for incoming calls.
SUNNY Twit 🙄
People here had problems with what I “pray”, at times … so I just sent it (what I said) and figured it more symbolically. Sunny/they decide where to put comments.
pj..lil driver problem here that I am messing with…Im on my way….
Ok…well, Im set up on skype but you are offline….
Did you try calling me?
OK, I had to get the Skype client going to allow calls in, but I did it remotely, which screwed up the sound settings. Looks like it’s all set now.
Never ever carpet a basement family room. :sammy:
Remember all the travail over Kent State? This horror today makes that look like a food fight. What a bunch of shits they got running V Tech, not closing the place down for two hours while some maniac goes traipsing around campus.
I went to Fordham in the Bronx; i could see the geniuses who ran that place thinking “oh la de dah, a measly two people shot in a domestic dispute; just a typical day in the big City.” Heads are going to roll down there in Blackburg. They had enough time to pour the entire state militia onto that campus. Its inexplicable; the opposite usually happens. You get a hundred trigger happy rambo troopers running all over the place shooting up innocent people. Where the hell were they?
I’m a subscriber to Nova M just so I can dowload Malloy but he’s too much for me this evening. Yea, he’s right- too much about our deaths, hardly anything about 650,000 Iraqi deaths at our hands but give it a rest just for a day Mike.
Then I went to listen to Rachel on aar- nowhere to be seen- have they now taken Rachel away? First eco-talk (I thought that was going to be a weekend show- now Jon (boring) Eliott.
Just more reason that aar is completely irrelevant.
Hey Art, Rachel was on from 6:00 to 8:00.
A House task force will take the first steps Tuesday in an investigation of a Florida congressional election decided by 369 votes amid complaints that voting machines failed to count thousands of electronic ballots.
Republican Vern Buchanan was declared the winner of the election, a result Democrat Christine Jennings is challenging in Florida court.
The House, which has final authority over its membership, typically waits until legal challenges are completed before taking action. But Florida Democrats last month asked the House Administration Committee to begin reviewing the election after reports of an anomaly in the touch-screen voting machines that recorded about 18,000 skipped votes in Sarasota County.
Committee Chairwoman Juanita Millender-McDonald, D-Calif., created the three-member task force to investigate the issue and report back to the full committee.

:pup: malloy!
Thanks andy. KKFN in Denver has been fucking around with their schedule. Rachel used to be on here 8-10 MST, now she’s gone. Even more than aar becoming useless, KKFN is becoming more useless- but it’s clear channel so what do you expect?
Is Bill Press worth making time for? He’s replaced young turds. I was just getting used to the turds.
Sean- Have you ever checked out BartCop? I’m listening to his radio show #113 now. I needed something a little lighter than malloy tonight.
:banana: HEY YOU GUYS!!! :banana: (generically speaking, that is)
Just coming down from a really horrible day in Hospital Land :slap: :dancers: :fustrate: :yuck: :barf: :omg: and reading through some of today’s blog stuff.
Sorry, I am living in somewhat of an alternate :slap: :reaper: :nuts: reality because of the :dancers: :nuts: :nana: :sammy: profession that my 😮 very weird karma led me to.
Guess that’s why PJ & I found each other :omg: :yippee: :alc: :banana:
But, never mind about that. In skimming through today’s blogs, I see that many comments were made about Code Pink Ladies — for whom I have a GREAT deal of respect and admiration and am urging my 20-something daughters to hook up with this Pink Energy :nod: . Anyhow, when I went to deecee in January for the 1/27 Big March with the Raging Grannies , the RGs ended up in front of the VERY NOISY Code Pinkers (including the lovely CP’er who was in the background during the Valerie Plame testimony). Gotta say I LOVE THE CODE PINKERS — but some of the Grannies did have some issues with their noise level. Guess those hearing aids were just turned up a little too high. Grannies ended up breaking away from the Code Pinkers and pulling off to the side of the March to serenade as people were marching by.
Anyway, thanks KP for your intervention.
I always feel like I’m so far behind in keeping up with this blog because there are so many in-the-moment NOW demands on my energy. Most recently my 79-year-old mother who fell & broke both her wrists and our beloved kitty who I had to make a very difficult decision about ( requiem for Eddie — http://picasaweb.google.com/chris.sauter/Eddie — http://www.indigo.org/rainbowbridge_ver2.html — hope those links work — I’m an amateur at all this stuff. ). Druid if you could say a prayer for our sweet Eddie, it would be appreciated — I really think the goddam dry food that he was addicted to did him in — and we just didn’t know that the dry cat food Purina and all the other evil corporations are poisoning all the food for cats and dogs and people and ALL living things :reaper: — ) ..
