||||||||| Catherwood re-enters the Waiting Room and explains "This is the main discussion room which is logged each night."
||||||||| Catherwood announces, "The time is 4:33 AM - I now declare Thursday's chat log for July 28, 2005 officially open!"... and then, he retires back to the vestibule...
||||||||| Firebroiled enters at 7:41 AM as Catherwood takes their hat and goat and dashes off to the Haberdashery Barn.
Firebroiled: Happy B-day, Rocky!!
||||||||| At 7:42 AM, Firebroiled dashes out the door saying "Hey, mister ice-cream man, I've got a nickel, wait for meeeee..."
||||||||| Outside, the 12:26 PM bus from Funfun Town pulls away, leaving Tweeny coughing in a cloud of diesel fumes.
Tweeny: 2 things: You really want the Grateful Dead, and you really want the 3rd Army of Patton to protect you. Where shall we stop buying time?
Tweeny: Until last time, again...
||||||||| Around 12:28 PM, Tweeny walks off into the sunset...
||||||||| Catherwood enters with ah,clem close behind, mumbles something about disrupting his 7:49 PM tree-stunting plans, and dashes off to the vestibule.
||||||||| New CNI streaming notice: '"A Few Minutes with Firesign Theatre", live from studio A'
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 8 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
||||||||| Catherwood escorts Klok-de-Humidified inside, makes a note of the time (8:03 PM), then fades off into the distance going on about the waiting room or the sitting room or something.
||||||||| Gusts of wind blow in from outside and the thumpa-thumpa-thumpa of helicopter blades is heard as Happy Panditt's chopper lands on the lawn and Bambi disembarks at 8:03 PM.

Bambi: Lock your wigs sounded great!
||||||||| Catherwood enters with cease close behind, mutters something about disrupting his 8:15 PM tree-stunting plans, and dashes off to the Aviary.
Klok-de-Humidified: I'm d/l 77MB and thinking, "Wow, this is gonna be a long one, or maybe some HQ music..." WRONG!

Dexter Fong: boney: Highly unlikely
Bambi: how's Lili doing?

Elayne: Evenin' all!

GypsyDoctor: oh well

Dexter Fong: What's wrong Doctor?
boney: There are many possibilities--or seeming possibilities--coming out of Al Franken's Sundance Channel thing.

Bambi: Hi Elayne!
Merlyn: I should cat, if I can find it
cease: have any of you heard the podcast Area 51?

llanwydd: open your gate
Elayne: Only here for a few minutes, can't really function well this week. Been a tough time at work.

boney: It would be weirdly cool if folks like Merlyn and DocTechnical connected with the Sundance Channel.
cease: sounds like it from your blog, el
llanwydd: tell us about it Elayne
cease: it's hot here by vancouver standards but nothing compared to what you have to deal with
Elayne: The heat wave in NYC finally broke today, it was lovely.
boney: I like how the Sundance Channel advertises nothing on the Franken Show except their own upcoming independent films.
Bambi: Elayne...so glad you came here for a bit just the same.

cease: we dont get that in canada, bone
Dexter Fong: We're US+...we're frying boy scouts in Virginia

GypsyDoctor: Are we in Canada now?

Dexter Fong: Doc: A team of baby seals invaded New Foundland yesterday...only a few were clubbed to death

Bambi: Elayne was :-)
Elayne: My blog predates yours, Fran? But-- but you're the techie! :)
llanwydd: I've never done blogging. If I had my own website I might keep a blog on it.
||||||||| Catherwood tiptoes into the room, and pipes up "Announcing 'Gen. Tweenus Goatheart', also known as 'Nancy' -- the time is 8:29 PM" -- then he slowly retires back into the Aviary...
boney: Independent film making resonates with corners of cyberspace like FST.com, don't you think?
llanwydd: a rudimentary one
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: - The eggs, are only the beginning...
Dexter Fong: Tweeny, tell 'em about the breakfast special
Bambi: lol ... I had my blog space since 2003 but didn't do anything with it except put up a picture album till February of this year

Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Anybody heard of Eddy Izzard? Dressed To Kill is amazingly funny.
Elayne: Usenet, Cat? Does that still exist? :)

Merlyn: and it's "Dress to kill"
||||||||| Gusts of wind blow in from outside and the thumpa-thumpa-thumpa of helicopter blades is heard as Happy Panditt's chopper lands on the lawn and Mudhead disembarks at 8:33 PM.
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Was he wearing heels? He calls himself a male lesbian.
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Hey Mud...
llanwydd: him and the other Phil. It was from Proctor himself that I learned what Firesign Theatre meant. I asked him
Mudhead: good evenin Dear Friends
Elayne: I thought he calls himself an executive transvestite.
Merlyn: he's an executive transvestite
Elayne: Just so.
Bambi: gonna have to talk to my webhost...our site is not available right now
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Exactly, E. Damned funny stuff.
Bambi: hi Mudhead
Elayne: I love when he goes into his multi-lingual riffs. I know just enough of a smattering of other languages to "get it."
Mudhead: What, an internet failure, I've never heard of that!
boney: Merlyn, you can't talk about the "things with Air America and Firesign Theatre" because... Why? Because they're awful and embarrassing?
Bambi: lol
cease: there are other languages?
Elayne: Brian, can you at least confirm whether Marc Maron is a Firesign fan?
Mudhead: oui cease
Elayne: He had Penn Jillette and Paul Provenza on this morning, talking about The Aristocrats.
Merlyn: not sure offhand, E. I would think so.
cease: am i the only one who heard dwarf played on majority report last week?
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Any canucks here tonight?
Merlyn: when, cat? I missed it
Elayne: Me too, but my Sam Seder tolerance is fairly low.
cease: it was a planet check spot about the greening of Grace Cathedral
cease: they layed Organ Leroy in the background to set it up
Elayne: Oh, that's not on Majority Report, that's produced separately.
cease: uh, played
Elayne: They do Planet Check stuff on the ad breaks for most of the Air America shows.
Mudhead: i liked layed better
Elayne: Don't know who produces those PSAs, but I don't think it's an Air America person.
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Ja, the layder the bitter...
Mudhead: try some layder hoser
cease: the maj report has fewer and fewer guests and more and more calls which i do not care for at all
Dexter Fong: Clem is deconstructing Tv or Not TV
Mudhead: was that a question?
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Mizzzz information....
boney: I loved the PSAs that Frank Zappa did for KPFK-FM back in the late 1970s... "Don't take speed--it will make you just like your parents."
Mudhead: I hate my parents
Dexter Fong: wow! Dead or 94
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: I parent my hates.

Bubba's Brain: Good parenting is vital, Tween.

Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Good parrotting is the Keys...

Bubba's Brain: Good partying with a key....
Mudhead: i only have half a key
Elayne: Who's on as GypsyDoctor? I used to celebrate my cat Gypsy Doctor's birthday on this date.
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Warming by the Perth of the Firesign.
boney: Zappa advised against smack and downers, in addition to speed.
cease: how are your cats, el?
Elayne: I still miss my Gypsy, he was my first kitty.
Dexter Fong: E: Seems to be a newcomer..somewhat diffident
Mudhead: awww
Elayne: Cat, Datsa's still hanging in, strong and fierce as ever, and Amy's her usual terribly-cute self.
cease: and he hated grass, or at least other people using it
Bambi: can you guys get to http://www.jim-fran.com or http://www.cniradio.com?
Mudhead: i got to cni
llanwydd: funny how you can hardly tell what Ozzy is saying unless he's singing. Otherwise he's unintelligible

Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: Please don't step on the astrotruf, man...
ah,clem: requests?
Elayne: Fran, I can get to both, but my computer tells me I need Cyrillic in order to read the first site. :)
boney: He thought it was disrespectful to his music.

Mudhead: Nah, I got to both
Dexter Fong: Bambi both URLs work for me

Bambi: Clem can you get to them from there?
||||||||| Catherwood says "8:44 PM, time for SOMEONE to leave!", grabs boney by the collar and gives 'em the old bum's rush out the door
Bambi: thanks folks for checking :)
Elayne: Obviously I've watched Head a few too many times for my own good...
||||||||| Catherwood trudges in at 8:44 PM, dragging professorPoop by one leg and asks "Can anyone vouch for this idiot?"
Mudhead: yur Welcome bambi, anytime
Dexter Fong: Double P
cease: i hope that eventualy comes to one of our video rental stores here, el. id love to see it again

Bambi: hey pP
Mudhead: Professer, whats it look like in the astrolabe?
professorPoop: give us a round of vin de jour llan
Elayne: That's why it was so easy for me to get into when I finally saw it, it reminded me of Dwarf.
Elayne: "Riding the backs of giraffes for laughs is alright for awhile..."
Bambi: so would professor be a promotion or a demotion from principal?
Elayne: And of course the "war song" scene still gets to me, I still can't watch that all the way through.

llanwydd: ref: "before the changed the water" from Dwarf
Elayne: They've been fluoridating and especially chlorinating like anything 'round these parts lately.
Bubba's Brain: who cleans the watchmen?
Elayne: I think they dump a whole mess of chlorine into the water supply at once when it gets real hot.
Dexter Fong: Chads in the water, Jeremy's on the beach
llanwydd: hadn't thought of that, cat
cease: i assume thats a ref to fluoridation, but you never know with the fireguys

Bubba's Brain hums "It's just a screen clean for the may queen..."

||||||||| Mudhead dashes out the back door as Mayor P'nisnose blasts through the front door holding a shotgun and shouting "Where's Mudhead?! It's 8:55 PM and my ballot boxes haven't been stuffed yet!"
llanwydd: I noticed another puzzle in "Nick Danger" when I was listening to it the other day. Who is the Nancy's mysterious husband Johnny who disappeared? Wasn't it Dan who disappeared for a thousand years?
||||||||| Catherwood strides up and pipes up "Presenting 'Mudhead', just granted probation at 8:55 PM", then leaves hurriedly.
professorPoop: his daughter is on the supreme court, did she write them?
cease: they keep changing their names, llan
Gen. Tweenus Goatheart: We've been slimed!
Dexter Fong: Ilan: I think her disappeared husband was Catherwood...

professorPoop: oz, they had contract issues, a sequence of directors worked on it
whump: Talk about your Sherman's march. I'd burn Atlanta if I were pink slipped by the producer.
Dave: I have yet to see citizen cane, then again I'd miss a lot because I've heard that the camera work was amazing for its time
Bunnyboy: Klok: Rent the latest 4 disc edition of GWTW. You can actually make out SKIN TONES. Veins, blemishes and everything.
professorPoop: I have not seen anybody who talks like ken
Dave: wow bun that's amazing for the time and all
Dexter Fong: Klok: Don't think that GWTW had that many directors..but do know that Director of "Rainboe" director was pulled off that flic and put on GWTW for slugging Judy Garland
Klok-de-Humidified: Dave - watch RKO 281 or whatever it was. Great backstory on Kane
whump: Kane rocks.
cease: you thought citizen kane was overproduced?
Dave: ah just spelt kane, now I know how to spell it
Dexter Fong: Klok: JUs how would Dave "WATCH" RKO 281
Dave: what was that? rko what? never heard of it
Bunnyboy: GWTW had at least 3 directors. And over a half dozen writers. Similiar situation on both fronts with OZ.
Klok-de-Humidified: whump -- dunno. the more i watch it, the more i think it was just showoff. Certainly RKO... showed some feet of clay
professorPoop: buddy ibsen was the original tin man, they almost killed him with the paint, he was replaced
cease: its funny, firesign riffed on citizen kane and wizard of oz on boom dot bust and it didnt save the album
whump: Documentary about making of Kane. I haven't watched it.
professorPoop: a cool special on making of OZ
Klok-de-Humidified: Dave - it was a made-for-Showtime or -for-HBO movie. Very good. About Welles and the making of Citizen Kane
Dexter Fong: pP: Buddy Bolden was the greatest New Orleans trumpet player
Klok-de-Humidified: whump - no, it's fictional
Bunnyboy: And they burned Margaret Hamilton. And badgered her back to work.
Dave: hmmm will have to track it down
Klok-de-Humidified: cat - most alive today don't even know what Citizen Kane is, nor care
Dave: yep dex, but we haven't a clue what he sounded like
Dexter Fong: Bunny: I heard she weaseled outta that deal
professorPoop: not al hurt or louis armstrong or.....
whump checks IMDB, eep. I don't know where I got that datum.
professorPoop: yes bunny
Dave: I honestly am one who does not, but would like to know, only because Wells is one of my fave radio actors
Klok-de-Humidified: they have no idea who William Randolph Hearst is, either. they barely know who frigging Murdoch is. newspapers don't exist for most of the current population, to a first approximation
Klok-de-Humidified: yeah, he did good radio, dave
cease: i just saw hearst in flick the cat's meow
Bunnyboy: The new OZ set will also include a 1990 doc (*NOT* DocTech!), a 2001 TCM doc, a doc on L. Frank Baum, and 5 pre-1939 OZ films, including the one with "Babe" Hardy as the Tin Man.
cease: he tries to kill chaplink kills someone else instead. apparently true story, according to orson welles

Dexter Fong: Thanks Cat..btw..visited your blog lately
Bambi: night Dex
Dave: yes he did great stuff on radio, have most if not all of it, earthstation1 had a dvd of his stuff if anyone's interested, lots of great shows
Klok-de-Humidified: It would be wasted, Dave, but Altman got so annoyed at everyone harping about Welles tracking shots (in The Magnificent Ambersons)...
Dexter Fong: Thanks pP: Rita's neata then Cheetah
Klok-de-Humidified: ...that he made an 11 minute tracking shot opening to his movie The Player

professorPoop: what did you eat before you slept? or ingest? inject? snort? sniff? inhale? insert?
Bunnyboy: Yeah, I knew the setups, but had to improvise my lines. And I was late for my first entrance.
Bunnyboy: It must have been the taco. Or the enchilada.
Bunnyboy: My bet's on the ground beef.
professorPoop: ahhhh
Klok-de-Humidified: well, gee, Bunny, revel in it. Most of us just get the low-budget dream about not having studied for the exam...
whump: When he awoke, there was a script clutched in his hands that wasn't there before.
cease: sounds like one of marc maron's dreams

Bunnyboy: When DEADWOOD season 2 comes out on video, y'all will have a chance to see an excruciating dramatization of passing a kidney stone, in the late 19th century. Not for the faint of heart or stomach.
whump: wince
Dave: yes cirlcle and circle ii are great records, I like a lot of different types of music, have lots of folk and country
professorPoop: it rattled around and fell out of my brain when somebody said circle, I was drinking heavily and smoking a lot of pot in those days. I do not try to remember details as that is usually fruitless
Bunnyboy: cease: Yes, TIREBITER FOLLIES. That's where Proctor made the announcement that GMIOGMD was in process. First FST album in 14+ years.
