[Zuni]

17. But it was a joke

Besides, you should hear my Murlin' accent

[progmom]

19. did someone say something?

:shrug:

[Zuni]

of poor taste"

[progmom]

9. is today your first day of work??

:bounce:

[RevolutionaryActs]

14. I worked yesterday, if you can call it that.

LOL! It's funny my bosses have never done anything like this before, so they don't really know what they're doing. So we get asked tons of questions, would this be easier or this?

We were putting stuff away and figuring out stuff like that. :crazy:

Today I learn the registers and how to make coffees! :o

[progmom]

26. i hope they understand...

...that this job cannot interfere with your DU time.

[RevolutionaryActs]

You know that one?

[Zuni]

38. no.

your request has been denied. again.

[RandomKoolzip]

39. Shit...how'z I supposed to know there's a screening process?!

This is worse than registering for college classes!

[Zuni]

42. We elitists prefer not to slum it up with the likes of you

sorry. My least sincere apologies. :evilgrin:

[RandomKoolzip]

49. How'd you like a velvet rope up your pooter, clownburger?

I keep forgetting about you liberals and your elitism.

Well, I'll show you! One day I'll get my own talk show on Fox and say nasty things about Hillary Clinton! JUST YOU WAIT!

[progmom]

[Zuni]

41. Is that the In-Crowd playing during the jazz news update?

I love that composition. What is the name of that track?

[progmom]

46. indeed!

good ears, my bouncer friend!

ramsey lewis!

[Zuni]

58. for some reason I thought the In Crowd was the name of his backing band

not the title of the track :shrug:

I have since apologized to the Ramsey lewis trio

[progmom]

80. yes. ramsey is upset. very upset.

so are those other two guys...uh...Young & Holt!

[EstimatedProphet]

i'm gonna have a grilled cheese, go see some paintings and my favorite todler and go dancing tonight!
but first, laundry. :cry:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

53. Hi there!

[bettyellen]

55. hey you! i'm so happy ! finally figured out how to get a great connection

to Jess's show. Doh, her station is in my ITunes list of stations. which i didn't even know was there.
:eyesroll:
wow. louis and ella. ummmm um.

[progmom]

56. hey babe - i will see what i can find to inspire you

:hi:

[bettyellen]

60. to get off my ass and work- no dancing for at least 8 or 9 hours........

have you ever seen "ball of fire" w/ barabara stanwyck n gary cooper ? i was trying to remember what famous drummer does the great little solo to "drum boogie" in the club scene.
if you haven't, see it asap, jess. you and dad will howl. twice as funny as the lady eve. the script is f'ing briliant.

[progmom]

68. i will add it to my netflix queue

it sounds great! thanks for the recommendation. i love barbara stanwyck - the hippest, toughest, coolest, most underrated leading lady in film!

[bettyellen]

75. my dad weaned me off shirley temple and on to barbara stanwyck.....

when i was little, he thought she was the best role model in hollywood.
okay, i'm now waiting for the news to put the laundry in.......

[Misunderestimator]

83. Hmm... Barbara Stanwyck...

my favorite lesbian of that era... :)

[bettyellen]

91. was she really? i had no idea...

i only know her from the movies. ball of fire kills me. i need to memorize that script, all the slang in it, and the bookish professors going on and giving coop advice about love. really good stuff.

[Misunderestimator]

102. Big Valley...

I had a BIG crush on her watching reruns with my mom. :)

[progmom]

95. no kidding?

:shrug:
i had never heard that.

[Misunderestimator]

98. No kidding...

at least those are the rumors... ;)

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

57. In a Sentimental Mood by Trane and Ellington

It's just one of my all time faves

[progmom]

59. mine too

it's always the first track i play when i get new stereo equipment. i always bring my copy of ellington and coltrane when i buy a new car, so it can be the first thing i hear. i'm weird that way.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

61. You gonna play it?

[immoderate]

67. It's one of my favorites too!

There's a really great recording of "In a Sentimental Mood" by Johnny Frigo on violin.

I used to have my math classes analyze that tune for pattern recognition.

--IMM

[progmom]

70. we'll see, won't we?

:P

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

71. I like your voice, btw!

[progmom]

74. hedges says i sound like a michigander

...the bastard!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

77. You sound like you're from NPR land to me

:P

[progmom]

87. i think i will take that as a compliment

:shrug:

:hi:

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

Thanks my dear - You're the best!

[maveric]

63. PLAY SOME SKYNARD!

Or Chopin

[Zomby Woof]

65. Remember Rockefeller At Attica

Mingus. :smoke:

[progmom]

115. aw damn, zw

can i catch you next week? i totally missed your post.

[Zomby Woof]

119. Oh sure

Not a problem. :-)

[bettyellen]

66. wow, this is awesome......

you read my mind.......
i am a simple gal, alright.
thank you soo much!
and for the most awesome grilled cheese, evah.

[progmom]

69. i think that's my theme song

give me the simple life...
:D

[bettyellen]

81. it may sound seedy... LOL.

love it.
while you're netflixing.:
if you haven't check out "i like it like that" it's fun, and uplifing, but very true to the spirit of the so bronx. and a damned fun little soundtrack to boot.
i'm adding that and "grace of my heart" (again) to my cue today. is matt dillon the cutest semi beach boy evah?
wow, what's this instrumental? it's killah!
:bounce:
you go, jess.

[progmom]

84. the instrumental is called "Cold Duck"

Iloved Grace of My Heart. Loved the soundtrack too. I will check out "I Like It Like That" - I remember nothing about it. When is it from?

I'm really glad you're digging the tunes.

I think I'm going to the bakehouse after this to get some parmesan pepper bread. yum! :9

[bettyellen]

97. it's a couple years after "boys in the hood"...because the was just a bit

on IFC? i think, about (How there are hardly any) black women filmakers. it got made because some woman exec was (and i mean was) riding high on the success of of "boys".
you'll like it, it's set in nyc, urban a+r people trying to figure out a culture they don't really get.

[progmom]

105. excellent

i have to get on the stick with netflix. i have been sitting on y tu mama tambien for about 6 months. it's time to move on... maybe i should buy that movie...

[bettyellen]

107. trade that in for "amores peros" if you haven't seen it.....

no dogs were hurt, they were highly trained. and it's okay if you shut yer eyes for those parts. it's still a great flick. and it has gael.

[progmom]

109. is that the latest almodovar?

if so, i'm dying to see it. it's the first almodovar in years that i didn't see in the theater. i adore that man. and, of course, gael. :9

[bettyellen]

118. no, it's the guy who directed 21 grams, and it's amazing ...

kind of like a latin twist on what altman does. it's about how love can make a dog out of any of us. in mexico it was called love's a bitch.
but there are some bloody dog fight scenes and that kept a lot of people from seeing it. in the end they show you how it was staged, and it's pretty funny. if you have any worries, maybe you shld watch that part first.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

72. Is that Janis?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

73. nevermind...Anita O'Day

[progmom]

followed by
"isfahan" from the album "far east suite"

[In_The_Wind]

113. I really tried to listen

Honestly I did try - but the microwave towers along highway 71 kept on knocking out my reception on my radio and my cell phone :cry:

[progmom]

114. aw....

Joan, I love you. Thanks for trying! There will be other Saturdays. Give Andy a hug for me!!!! :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

116. I have that same request from several other people at DU.

It seems as everyone wants me to give Andy a hug from them !

Andy was one of the first people at DU that I felt a connection with ~ he posted a thread about "I'm so scared y'all ... " I answered his thread that night and we exchanged about 2 or 3 PMs several months ago. I come today bringing gifts and an abundance of love for him from some of the amazing people of my hometown who are also wishing him an easy and speedy recovery.

:loveya: too ~ progmom :hug:

[Zuni]

117. Progmom

I listened to the whole show. I had it cranked up while I was cleaning, doing laundry etc.

I am very impressed. You played some real good stuff. Did I hear "Sing, Sing, Sing"? I went to take out the trash and when I came back I thought I caught the end of it.

Anyway, great show. I will be listening next week.
:hi:

[progmom]

120. Zuni.

Love ya, babe. Thanks for keeping the riff raff out! ;)
