Ossman: Totally well and very very busy on the radio shows. Ready to do duthy with Firesign, but it's all still in the talks tage now
Merlyn LeRoy: clem, I gotta fix your premature gray
Cease: O'll ways a good number
LiliLamont: Sorry to hear that, Doc. I'm slightly better, and next Thursday looks like the day.
klokwkdog: that's the thing about FST...all the ever seem to do is talk...
Cease: so the npr gig is no more?
doctec: well, talking is good - right?
Bunnyboy: cat: I saw the Tirebiter Follies a few years back. Lotsa fun.
klokwkdog: they
LiliLamont: Dave: It was a pleasure, and I hope we see you again here.
Dexter Fong: Klok: NDS RIGHT NOW, i'M TALKING INTO MY HAT

Ossman: The NPR gig is in renegotiation
Dexter Fong: Cap Lock =\
doctec: lili: yaaaaaaaaay! great news, i know you must be relieved to see the end of this long national nightmare a short way away
klokwkdog did enjoy the St. Louis Aquarium choir, though ;-)
Cease: is this worrisome, dave?
Bunnyboy: I wonder where Duth is?
doctec: Duluth, bucko...

doctec: yeah dave, we've got our fingers (and other appendages) crossed that the npr gig continues
ah,clem: duh!
Dexter Fong: NPR Host: ...and the great Firesign drout may be on the verge of ending
Bunnyboy: (sings) R is for Rookie, that's good enough for me...
LiliLamont: I loved the NPR gig. I listen to NPR a lot, as Doc can attest, and the bits you guys did were always welcome, even though the rest of NPR does have a sense of humor, as opposed to, say, Fox News.
Ossman: Not to worry about NPR - be we have to be guaranteed a set number of - say, episodes of Nick Danger For President, or something like it
Bunnyboy: Is that moss?
LiliLamont: I love Nick, but a tree stump looks better than Bush.
klokwkdog: that's Faux News to you, young lady! fair and balanced: we distort, you comply
Bunnyboy: President? GOVERNOR!
Dexter Fong: Nick Danger for Prez! I love it. the third eye party
Merlyn LeRoy: I think a regular time slot would help, too.
Cease: i saw eddie izzard;'s new stage show last weekend here in van, dave, and his initial background of psychedelic imagery vastly inhaned the show. i wondered why you crazy guise never did that, at leastg in the shows i saw
Ossman: He did not choose to recall
doctec: nick danger for alderman - nick danger for dog catcter - the possibilities are endless!
Bunnyboy: Gary Trudeau is having a field day with that.
Merlyn LeRoy: dogkiller, doc
klokwkdog: shouldn't press Don Novello's chances for that, though
Cease: peter bergman for president of bermania
doctec: right - sorry merl
Dexter Fong: Cat: Pschedica is like...so...60's man
LiliLamont: Klok: I've known it was faux, which is why I've avoided it like the plague that it is. But I loved the face that they sued Al franken on such a bullshit premise.
doctec: bermania for the bermanians!
LiliLamont: fact, not face
Cease: yeah, well you have your own typing god and i have mind, dex
Bunnyboy: At least he has the choice of recall...unlike our former buddy with the slick hair.
Bunnyboy: And I do mean Daffy Duck.
klokwkdog: Lili - now, get the T-shirt...http://www.agitproperties.com/
doctec: typing gods of the world - untie!
Dexter Fong: Whomania for those who may choose for such an outcome
Cease: the bergmana triangle? where all good ideas get Reborn?
Ossman: Listen to BRIDE - the"roast" and song - we were right on with Strong Man Bradshaw
klokwkdog: Yes, the TV just announced that Osama has let loose a new strain of dyslexia...
doctec: or optined at the very least, cat...
Bunnyboy: Why should we subsidize intellectual curiousity? - The Gipper
doctec: optioned
doctec: yes dave you certainly were
LiliLamont: Klok: Brilliant! I love it! I'll get it a size too small so that it generates attention.
klokwkdog: no, Ron Howard has it locked up: opined
Bunnyboy: Busama Sim Faden?
Dexter Fong: Kenny G's Percussionit: I've played Bergmana Triangles for....uh....for a while

LiliLamont: Who?
Merlyn LeRoy: michael jackson?
Dexter Fong: Bun: Boris Becker?
doctec: lena horn of plenty

Merlyn LeRoy: fixed now

Dexter Fong: Meet the white house agenda benda
Cease: of course, new product to plug
Bunnyboy: Of course, HUAC was renamed around 1969, something like House Internal Security Wamafoo, or sumpin'...
klokwkdog: the troops in Iraq are going to be a problem now -- if they let them come home, the administration is done for
Bunnyboy: And no troublesome Congress, neither!
doctec: wamafoo - now that's a government department name for you
Dexter Fong: Wamafoo< just north of Twsassen-neuf
Cease: and youre saying this is a bad thing, klok?
LiliLamont: And now it's the Home Securty Agency, or something like that.
doctec: and i guess the members of that department are all called wamafooligans?
Dexter Fong: Home Field Security Lili
klokwkdog: no, just that they may keep finding Catch-22 type excuses to keep them offshore
Cease: dem's dat got the land, got the security

Dexter Fong: Hey Bub
Bunnyboy: Philatelists, that's correct, as well.
Bubba's Brain: Hey, all.
Merlyn LeRoy: hey brain, just missed Ossman
Cease: hey bub. you just missed ossman
doctec: cat: yes, just this afternoon - you asked which show i sent you on vhs, it was the 'dressed to kill' show (the one that won him an emmy in 2001)
klokwkdog: Hey, Catherwood! Can you say NTS??? Sheesh!
Cease: but you knowhim better than all of us combined so that's no big deal, eh?
Dexter Fong: The Flatulent Philate,ists File...coming tis Thursday
Bubba's Brain: Sorry to hear it -- missing O, that is.
doctec: lili and i got to see him live doing the show he calls 'circle' - i understand that one has just come out on dvd
Cease: that was the funniest act i'dever seen.
doctec: hey bubba, any contact with fish lately?
Merlyn LeRoy: yeah, it won an emmy, cat
Cease: as i toldja i know little of the vast radiance of that act, just like ft
Bunnyboy: Seems that some Australian researchers are hypothesizing that boyos who whack the wheezer often, in their 20's, run a lower risk of developing prostate cancer, in later life.
doctec: cat: yeah, eddie is indeed amazing - cleese says he's the funniest thing going today
Cease: i dont follow such things, merl
Merlyn LeRoy: he's been in a few movies, and they have noooooo clue what to do with him
Bunnyboy: And all I can say is, PRAISE JAY-ZUS!
Bubba's Brain: not much... he just came back from doing War of the Worlds in Nashville.
Cease: ive seen realy funny richard pryor emmy shit, alas not ft
Cease: didnt he play lenny in london?
||||||||| It's 12:10 AM, and that means it's time to play BEAT THE REAPER! And here's how our contestants did:
||||||||| ah,clem - dead from measles
 ||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
Dexter Fong: Dee Jay-Suss
Cease: ave ben good, but i cant realy see him as actor
Bunnyboy: Of course, on the other end, I think: Timothy Leary? Frank Zappa? Hmmmmmmmmmm....
Cease: his own scripts are vastly better than any he will be offered
doctec: merl: i heard him interviewed on all things considered - he does the standup thing because it brings in money but he really wants to be taken seriously as a film actor - that's why he goes after only serious roles (nothing comedic)
Bunnyboy: Izzard is playing Seattle this weekend.
Cease: bummer, doc
doctec: oops - not all things considered, it was 'morning becomes eclectic' on kcrw last week
Cease: like fuckin chaplin, firesign, whomever, eh?
Merlyn LeRoy: Well, they still don't know what to do with him
Bunnyboy: Anyway, Trudeau's strip references this "finding", so the blue noses are clamping down.
Cease: bunny, go see him
doctec: cat: actually it makes sense - he says if he did comedic roles, that's all they'd offer him
Dexter Fong: Well I must go in search of vacant but legel street space
Bunnyboy: cat: Wish I could. Got a full slate ahead.
Dexter Fong: See you all next time
Cease: ok, i konw that, doc. he needs a career, not just hawkeye forever, eh?
Bunnyboy: nite Dex
Cease: by dex
doctec: he actually has two agents: one for lining up the stand-up gigs, and one for getting him serious acting roles in film & stage (he was in a revival of joe egg off-broadway not long ago, the reviews were very good)
Bubba's Brain: Nite dex
klokwkdog: nite Ash
doctec: nite dex
Merlyn LeRoy: dix nete
Cease: yes the guy can act. give him somestatue or imprint in a sidewalk or whatever
Bunnyboy: I think Eddie Izzard and Lou Reed should go on tour...and read each other's works.
Cease: but the world needs his comedic insights, not his fuckin great acting shit
Bunnyboy: Of course, Izzard is an improviser. Hmmm...
doctec: bb: what a great concept - with laurie anderson doing the background music right?
klokwkdog is good for another 6 minuten, he thinks, if Catherwood does not start yelling more untruths in the middle of it
doctec: cat: it's not like he will give up the standup thing - he'll keep doing that because he loves it
Cease: bunny, i've been cultivating a sense of what is funny for over half a century and at present, eddie is not kidding.
Bunnyboy: Doc: For Izzard, yes. And Danny Elfman for Lou.
doctec: but he also loves being a serious actor too - in a way, he's fulfilling both aspirations
Cease: yes he said that in show, we know. we pay to see him on stage. they may not to see him in flicks
klokwkdog: belzer seems to be doing good in that cop show
Bunnyboy: Eddie Izzard IS...BATMAN!
Cease: but jordan wanted to play baseball, eh?
Cease: to his eyes, yayyy to bat man fans and izzard fans, booo
doctec: well so far he hasn't been the lead in any of the films he's been in so i don't think they'll be staying away from his films in droves
Merlyn LeRoy: didn't Bergman say he was on "curb your enthusiasm"?
klokwkdog: yeah, but something about the eight other guys wanted to share the billing, Cat
doctec: actually i quite liked the job he did in that vampire flick with willem dafoe and john malkovich - what was the name of that flick?
klokwkdog: is that the purple pill on TV, Mewrlyn?
Bunnyboy: CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM is the bomb.
Cease: 8 men out?
Bunnyboy: SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE
klokwkdog: hmm, this keyboard needs re-alignment
Cease: to what do you refer?
Cease: i loathe curb, i love 8 men out
klokwkdog: it only takes three in that game, Cat
Cease: vampirates have shad ohs?
doctec: i didn't like the first season and a half of curb your enthusiam that much but it's grown on me, the later shows have been pretty good though. which episode is bergman going to be in?
klokwkdog: m. jordan, Cat
Bunnyboy: Today's purple pill...the side effects, of which, will be cured by TOMORROW'S purple pill.
Cease: purr pill pee pull eaters
Merlyn LeRoy: I don't know; I think he mentioned playing a corporate guy in one ep, but I don't know which one
klokwkdog: BB - if you start taking them, you don't care
Bunnyboy: cat: Loathe? Pour quoi?
doctec: ah, just gimme the red pill - i wanna see how far down the rabbit hole goes
klokwkdog: LOL, Cat
Bunnyboy: John Sayles is also the bomb.
doctec: yeah john sayles kicks major arse
klokwkdog: he just got a festival somewhere
Bunnyboy: John Sayles has a coupla new flicks in the hopper, as well as some DVD releases impending.
doctec: bb: ooh good news
klokwkdog: but i don't care what they say, i liked The Big Chill better
Cease: klok, where were you when i was saying really funny stuff, long agog?

||||||||| Dexter Fong - dead from measles
 ||||||||| Better luck next time! And now, back to our chatroom, which is already in progress...
Cease: johh sayles flick brother from another flick is almost my favret flick
Bunnyboy: We were all agog.
klokwkdog: i was probably just looking agog at it, Cat
klokwkdog: Sunshine State
klokwkdog: a bit too preachy; it's like reading an interview with Mellencamp or something'
doctec: klok: thanks
Bunnyboy: doc: Oh, yeah! I just saw the DVD for that, at Hollywood Video. Just barely caught the title, recently. Had no idea Sayles was it's progenitor.
klokwkdog: yeah. ever heard of an escalator clause?
doctec: not his strongest work, but even at that it's miles ahead of most everything else
Bunnyboy: It goes uppity up up? It goes down de owhn down?
Cease: yeah,, bad sayles is like bad firesign. shit, but sure greater shit than anyoe elses
doctec: lili and i finally got around to seeing bend it like beckham last weekend - we really loved it

Bunnyboy: Tourette's strikes again

Bunnyboy: BROTHER FROM ANOTHER PLANET.
Bunnyboy: Yes, quite fun.
doctec: yes - that one too
Bunnyboy: Oh, I ain't a least coaster, but I'm kinda tired, too.
klokwkdog: it's also a tad preachy, but a fave of mine, too. Sunshine State had better production values, but the preaching got in the way of the story for me.
doctec: i was always more a fan of heisenberg than einstein
Bunnyboy: nite, boyz.
Cease: tad to yu too, mr bikini island bingo
klokwkdog: nite BB
