| 8:14 pm |  | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Hmmmm, they seem to be running late. |
| 7:57 pm | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Three minutes until server shut down. See you on the other side, Wheaties!  |
| 7:56 pm | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Listeners are dropping off like flies at an insecticide convention. At least Ruben and Pickster are hanging in there. |
| 4:24 pm |  | DogNut (talk/contribs) | A quick heads up to any night owls. Our hosting provider will be doing network maintenance at 12am EST 8pm AK which will cause the web server and the high speed line to be unreachable. They say it should be a short outage, but they have scheduled a 2 hour maintenance window. FYI Ken |
| 3:18 pm |  | Mert (talk/contribs) | Actually, there are enough songs! |
| 3:15 pm | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Too bad no Hoagy Carmichael tag. Not sure there are enough songs in the librarry to warrant one. |

| 2:16 pm |  | Scobey (talk/contribs) | oh oh  |
| 2:15 pm | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Kimchi! Get hold of yourself! |
| 2:14 pm |  | Kimchifox (talk/contribs) | That's what she said . . . |
| 2:12 pm | | Scobey (talk/contribs) | Guys are hard on Malani! |
| 2:02 pm | | Scobey (talk/contribs) |  67degrees |
| 1:49 pm | | Scobey (talk/contribs) | |
| 12:26 pm |  | E.D. Egg (talk/contribs) | Besides, I'm so far from the rest of you in songs ranked (not even close to 2%) that I figure I have to rate the ones I know! |
| 12:24 pm | | E.D. Egg (talk/contribs) | I see (belatedly, I was here [1] that I was being invoked. Yup, I own all Kennedys albums and so know the songs . . . |
| 8:36 am | | Firewalk (talk/contribs) | missed my requests durn |
| 7:31 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Kimchi. |
| 7:23 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | There's a pin on the map for someone in Poland that's located just south of Alaska. I don't think so. |
| 7:13 am | | Kimchifox (talk/contribs) | That's what she said . . . |
| 7:04 am |  | Chili (talk/contribs) | I got it, I'm just slow  |
| 7:00 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | To do. Though I'd better clarify that. |
| 6:59 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Chiki, it's isn't that hard. |
| 6:52 am | | Firewalk (talk/contribs) | all |
| 6:49 am | | Chili (talk/contribs) |   I appreciate all the hard work you folks do here, Thanks Kakz, Fox, Mert and everyone else! |
| 6:41 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Chiki Habenero. |
| 6:41 am | | Chili (talk/contribs) | Thanks Mert and Good Day all ya'll |
| 6:35 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | It's Resurrection Day for Louis Ledford. Yeah. |
| 6:30 am | | Kimchifox (talk/contribs) | A big ol' "Thank You," Mertilicious!!!! |
| 6:27 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Jorma's the greatest. Glad to see the geezers still doin' it. |
| 6:26 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Yuh, got my morning protein. |
| 6:26 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | That's what I get for not refreshing. |
| 6:25 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Kimchi and Chili, I know you're here! Tuneage comin' up for ya both.  |
| 6:24 am | | Kimchifox (talk/contribs) | That's what she said . . . |
| 6:20 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Are the little suckers sucked yet? |
| 5:03 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | And go do the fruit fly suck. |
| 5:02 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Well, that was The Pep Talk of the Day. I need to pep up myself . . . |
| 4:50 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | You know so much about music . . . |
| 4:49 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | That's good! As long as you keep looking. |
| 4:46 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | I try not to go there, instead say I haven't found the thing I can do. |
| 4:43 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Sigh, another Mertologue. |
| 4:40 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Try making MS a positive experience. |
| 4:39 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Sorry. I just know whereof I speak. |
| 4:38 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | If you think, "There's nothing I can do," then, yeah, that'll make it true. It all starts with attitude. |
| 4:35 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Put some positive out into the universe instead of negative and you'll get it back. |
| 4:34 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | You have knowledge and experience, seems like you could parlay that into cash. |
| 4:32 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Online customer service you could do. I always thought it would be fun to do that for plant nurseries, get to talk to a lot of gardeners. You could sell guitars. |
| 4:26 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Yeah, I know, but there it is, it's a prerequisite of employment. And about the only work I qualify is phone work, and the only phone work I qualify for is cold calling solicitation. |
| 4:18 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Holy crap, they're supposed to be paying you, not you them. What difference does it make? |
| 4:15 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Yes, all the legit companies require that you pass a credit check. |
| 4:00 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Did you look into any of those possibilities I sent? |
| 3:59 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | It's all in your head. |
| 3:57 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | No, I'm a dead popsicle, maybe someone will put up a memorial page for me. |
| 3:48 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | I didn't keep track of the winners yesterday, but while working today I'll scan back over yesterday's artists that I played, and if any names jog my memory I'll request a tune or two from them so you can here them. |
| 3:48 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Winter's comin'. |
| 3:45 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Have you found paying work yet? |
| 3:43 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | I'm talking about air around heads in thumbnails. Giving them some neck. You missed the comparison to white space. |
| 3:41 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | I like the white space too. A lot of the bios I'm fixing now are ones where I put the wihte space in. Unfortunately, as I understand it, the bots quite literally look on that next line down for content, if they see some text, they know there's a bio, and save it before reformatting and applying any updates and put the bio and pics back in, if they don't see any text on that line, they assume there is no bio or pics, and just reformat the page without saving anything, wiping out any bio or pics that are there. |
| 3:32 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | No, I think it's electric violin. |
| 3:31 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | (Better Dreams / Better Dreams / The Kennedys) Sitar? |
| 3:29 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Kinda like white space in an ad; it sets off the content. |
| 3:28 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Try to give them a little neck. Looks better if the head isn't the only thing in the picture. |
| 3:26 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Still plenty to do. Tagging, lyrics, etc. Pics are still a mess. I've been systematically going through the Artists and fixing the pics, taking the space out after "the next line down" in the bios if there is one so Jim's bots won't won't think it is a blank page and reformat it and wipe out the pics and bio, and adding Myspace and Wikipedia links. I've found and added almost 1000 Myspace links in the past week. |
| 3:22 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Wish we had more gypsy jazz here. I've about worn out Hot Club. |
| 3:21 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Who was that, last night? |
| 3:21 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Looks as if Egg has already voted on all the Kennedy-related songs. She must know them by heart. |
| 3:20 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | There is still some gold out there, or at least some silver, however. I found a couple rarely heards last night that were pretty good. |
| 3:18 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Maybe there will be surprises. |
| 3:17 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | From here on in, I'm starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel. The quality of my requests is going to get steadily worse. |
| 3:15 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | How will it be when you've heard them all? There will be nowhere else to go, alas. |
| 3:11 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Don't sweat the 50. I'm working on 5%. |
| 3:11 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | Hovering around 80 percent of the tunes in the library being rated. |
| 3:09 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | I hit 10 percent on Thursday night around 11:00 PM. Still about 50 away from the actual numbers making it a true 10 percent. |
| 3:09 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | How's Kaz? |
| 3:07 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Probably better than Muckwheat. |
| 3:07 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | It's Merthead to you, Kaz. |
| 3:06 am | | Mert (talk/contribs) | Good morning, Wheataroos. |
| 3:04 am | | Kazookid (talk/contribs) | I know you're there Mertatroid. Nice tunes. |
