Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:21:50 PM
Yah it is already too hot for me... thank goodness for air conditioning
DJ Lou (host) 8:22:55 PM

Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:25:30 PM
I'm just going to memorize state and world capitals
DJ Lou (host) 8:25:46 PM

Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:26:04 PM
I feel relatively confident
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:26:21 PM
But I will let you know next week
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:28:19 PM
I summon Danosaur!... wonder where he is
DJ Lou (host) 8:31:45 PM

Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:32:47 PM
BRB
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:52:58 PM
Had to go out for diet soda and some ice cream
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:53:21 PM
Who doesn't enjoy a lovely beverage?
DJ Lou (host) 8:54:41 PM
thats a winning combo too
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:55:00 PM
I'm a diet soda demon
DJ Lou (host) 8:55:09 PM
...accidental country on this r&b album?
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:55:24 PM
I drink copious amounts
DJ Lou (host) 8:56:01 PM
i'm not big on carbonated drinks
DJ Lou (host) 8:56:20 PM
but diet coke is good
Vice Admiral Robert Z 8:58:01 PM
I'm just an aspartame junkie
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:00:37 PM
Wasn't too country
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:01:04 PM
I loathe country and I had no problem with it loll
DJ Lou (host) 9:05:04 PM
hey thats high praise then
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:06:43 PM
Country, polka, and thrash metal.... I draw the line there
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:06:56 PM
Anything else I can handle
DJ Lou (host) 9:08:32 PM
polka yeah. not for me
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:09:13 PM
Use an accordion, go to jail
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:09:43 PM
Not strictly true ofc but a good joke
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:09:58 PM
Hey gang!
DJ Lou (host) 9:10:02 PM
dan!!!
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:10:25 PM
Spinitron wouldn't let me sign in
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:11:04 PM
Gary Larson did a cartoon once with people getting harps as they arrived in heaven but if they were arriving in hell they would get a accordion
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:11:15 PM
Hey Dano!!
DJ Lou (host) 9:11:54 PM
how dare you, spinitron
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:12:07 PM
We missed you
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:13:02 PM
Yeah, I've heard other people say that they've had trouble signing on recently
DJ Lou (host) 9:13:51 PM
its the price you pay for the cool new dino emoji
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:13:57 PM
I did the other day but I kept trying and it was ok after a few minutes
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:14:31 PM
I like polka music and I'm not ashamed to admit it
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:14:50 PM
I cast thee out!
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:15:02 PM
Kidding ofc
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:16:26 PM
Most music genres have good artists and bad
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:16:46 PM
Now I think of it I do make a exception for weird Al Yankovic
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:17:53 PM
He usually puts a polka track on each album and does a medley of current hits polka style
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:18:37 PM
Gotta love Weird Al
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:19:26 PM
And who could forget Another One Rides the Bus with a accordion?
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:20:41 PM
An accordion salesman came to the door when Weird Al was a kid and that's how he chose the accordion
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:20:55 PM
He also did "I Lost on Jeopardy" so long ago it mentions Art Fleming
DJ Lou (host) 9:20:56 PM
accordion salesman is a crazy job
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:21:10 PM
Is that true?
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:21:11 PM
For sure
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:21:23 PM
Surely you jest
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:21:45 PM
That's the truth according to Weird Al
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:22:12 PM
Alright then I will stop calling you Surely
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:22:49 PM
Back in the day people used to sell all kinds of things door to door
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:23:08 PM
And yes Lou accordion salesman sounds like a very tough gig
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:24:08 PM
Got to go to the Polish neighborhood
DJ Lou (host) 9:24:15 PM
big hit there i'm sure
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:24:47 PM
I'll always remember MTV used to let Al take over and call it AlTV sometimes
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:25:26 PM
I remember for a goof he said he had invented the commodaphone
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:25:54 PM
Then he held up a toilet seat with strings like a guitar
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:26:14 PM
The accordion is popular in ranchero music because a lot of Germans settled in Mexico. Same reason they have beer
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:26:23 PM
Kind of in bad taste.... but funny
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:27:42 PM
This song is cool.
DJ Lou (host) 9:27:53 PM
u.s. girls never miss
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:28:04 PM
Tsingtao beer is good beer because the Chinese still use the German equipment that was there before the Boxer Rebellion
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:28:41 PM
If the Germans know anything it's beer
DJ Lou (host) 9:29:58 PM
beer and sausage and pretzels
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:30:21 PM
The ancient Egyptians were really into beer
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:31:11 PM
For the longest time alcoholic stuff was better than water because you couldn't get safe water
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:31:22 PM
True
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:32:25 PM
Stay hydrated
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:32:52 PM
Remember what Ben Franklin said about beer?
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:33:20 PM
It makes you smart?
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:33:28 PM
Nah
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:33:49 PM
It made Bud wiser
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:33:58 PM
He said Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:34:36 PM
Isn't that a nice quote?
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:35:14 PM
Sounds like something Ben Franklin would say
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:35:28 PM
Right?
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:36:12 PM
I think he also said fish and visitors stink after three days
DJ Lou (host) 9:36:36 PM
thats a fantastic one
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:36:46 PM
I used to have a book of his quotes but idk where it is now
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:37:47 PM
He's prolly most famous for Nothing is inevitable but death and taxes
DJ Lou (host) 9:38:26 PM
very topical now
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:39:02 PM
Oh yeah just had tax day huh
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:40:28 PM
Ooh, I like this song
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:41:10 PM
Reminds me of Tom Tom Club
DJ Lou (host) 9:41:42 PM
khruangbin makes some funnnn stuff
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:41:58 PM
Like that disco beat in the background
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:42:22 PM
I might have to get down
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:42:41 PM
Fun song to dance to
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:43:35 PM
Make sure you can get back up again, Admiral
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:44:48 PM
In my case that is no joke
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:46:07 PM
This is another good song
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:48:43 PM
Welp another simma is winding down
DJ Lou (host) 9:49:48 PM
they go faster and faster every time
DJ Lou (host) 9:50:02 PM
can't believe it!
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:51:06 PM
Savor it... soon you'll be out there in what they call the real world
DJ Lou (host) 9:51:16 PM
eeek! scared of that!!
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:51:21 PM
The relativity of time in action
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:52:12 PM
You'll be fine. Lots of adventures in your future
Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:52:25 PM
Yah
DJ Lou (host) 9:54:01 PM
i'll make it happen i'm sure!
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:54:47 PM
Thanks for the music and chat!
DJ Lou (host) 9:54:55 PM

Vice Admiral Robert Z 9:55:08 PM
Yah...cya Wednesday!
DanosauršŸ¦– 9:55:59 PM
Ahwoo!
