Tamara's Log Snug date April 20th

Live listeners were teased with an on time start...Then there was silence...And not this week's silence either...
But for the podcast listeners it starts without a hitch.

Here I am again, listening to the podcast in order to do the blog.

There was a brief chat about oxymorons. I posted something on the Wiki about them under "previously on the Snug". http://editthis.info/SnugRadio/index.php/Main_Page

Discussion about Maf's computer dewberry, sorry doobery thingy. I actually looked up both spellings and suddenly realize they are 2 completely different things. Dewberry - Function: noun1 : any of several sweet edible berries related to and resembling blackberries2 : a trailing or decumbent bramble (genus Rubus) that bears dewberries

doobery, Slang Much like what's-its-name, this can be applied to an object or thing that one is not sure about.


SNUG NIGHT MIGHT CHANGE (AUGUST MAYBE We'll be burning that bridge when we get to it. Will that be before we cross it or after? LOL)

Who is the evilest of us all? Listen to the show to find out!!! And NO it's not me! ;o)

Could someone please explain the Glynister (sp) thing Lee was talking about...



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Lee has a rant~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Plenty of chit chat about this and that.
Lee finally finds out the name of the movies he's been racking his brain for, thanks to Mrs. Lee.

The Tamara and Fluffy show is still in the works but Fluffy has had computer troubles. I am ready any time she is. :o)

{THIS WEEK'S SILENCE} an extra long one to make up for last week.

Maf's "this is true story" this week was about the guy who was pierced around 1015 times. That's freaky and weird but check this out... On tv last night I watched 101 more things removed from the human body. The nastyest one was this woman who was bit by a mosquito which injected a fly larva into here scalp. Her head swell so she went to the hospital. The doctor found the maggot and blocked it's air hole (hole in this woman's head) with vasaline. She had to go back 2 days later and it showed the doctor pull this inch long maggot out of her head!!!

Just a note about when people get an unavailble message for the show. Refresh your browser. If the speaker icon looks faded, refreshing should make it look not faded. Try it...

Show is over with a bit of Maf tripping over his tongue or speaking Swedish...

QUOTES
Pretty even this week guys ;o)
MAF (SMILE AND WAVE BOYS SMILE AND WAVE)(SO HOW EVIL ARE YA?)(KATIE IS NOT IN CAPITAL LETTERS) (WELCOME TO A COUPLE OF SHOWS AGO)

Tamara's log Snug date April 13th Show 101

I've got my tea, I've got my meds. (headache :o( ) I am well sedated to listen to SHOW 101!!!

{pre show live mic check, see what you podcast listeners are missing when you don't listen live!}
I thought I'd be able to write the blog durning the show but I only got to that last sentence and wasn't able to do it. So here I am listening to the show again.

Green onions starts the show as usual. Occasionally they stray from that choice and mix it up a bit but not today.
Special guest , ARGHHHHHH, it's Pirate Dave
or Priate Dave or Prisoner Dave
***correction it is Dawny (NOT Donny), sorry about that! and Elmo and Joe Riley new listeners! Welcome and hello!

Fluffy Lamb is MIA... Hey Fluff if you are reading this, get in touch!

Pirate Dave repeatedly calls Maf, Mark. His alias was blown!



Theme of Show 101 is ROOM 101 Some mysterious wiki writer name Patrick wrote a description on the wiki. Thanks for that :o)
Maf was disappointed that I didn't send a pet hate... Well I did say in the blog I'd surprise them by NOT sending something in... LOL
BUT I will shamelessly comment on their choices and tell them all the ways they are wrong!! haha


Mafs 101 Categories
Fashion:- 'political correctness' [I don't agree, while like anything, PC can be taken to an extreme, I do believe how we say things is important. My choice for fashion is the Mullet.]
Company:- 'RIAA / MPAA' [mine was the Body Shop, now I know they disagreed but I wasn't able to make my case, which is as follows. I worked for the Body Shop a number of times, I was manager of a shop in Ontario, I worked for several in England (while on my "working holiday"), as well as two here in BC. That said I was a true Body Shopper, was into the ideals behind the company. I was there when they still had opinions that they weren't afraid to share in their shop's windows. Over the years the community feel of the company has all but disappeared, it is now just bath products, with countless imitators. I just wanted to say my choice is based on once being an enthusiastic employee "back in the day", and a discerning consumer, who now knows the difference between natural and "naturally based." One more thing, I wasn't speaking against Anita Roddick (sp?), or the business choices she made, the company lost it's personal touch when she stopped being the hub of the company.
Institution:- organized Religion [ Funny it only heard 1 studio vote and yet here it is! I AGREE with Maf, 'nuff said]
TV Show:- Big Brother [I've not seen a Big Brother for ages, don't even know if it's still going "here" (The American Big Brother, there's not been a Canadian one) I also understand Maf saying if you watch 1/2 hr of one you have to watch the rest... My TV show for the vault is, The Price is Right, I am just sick of hearing the opening music and it's been on for as long as I can remember, just done with it!]
Film:- Flight to hell [ My choices are all the Dumb and Dumber style movies]
Actor:- ? [I had said Vin Deisel and I stand by that but there's also Tony Danza from Who's the Boss, he now has a talk show blaaaaa!!!]
Actress:- ? [Paris Hilton]
Song:- Rap [no, just can't. The only way I can agree is if it is changed to "bling bling 'ho's and bitches" style of rap. K'Nann, K-Os just to name two out of the many that are amazing. So my choice is the "bling bling" rap]
Band/Artist:- ? [Rolling Stones]
Drink:- Southern Comfort [hee hee Coke/Pepsi/Cola -ducks-and-runs-]
Food:- Offal (liver, haggis etc) [Wonder bread, "they" found a loaf that had been in the dump for *many* years (not sure how long), and was still "fresh", soft and wonder bread like. Not sure if there is such a thing there, but it is over processed with a ton of preservatives, white bread. :op]
Group of people:- not covered [racists]
Technology:- not covered [TV as we know it, the technology has to catch up to the way people want to view TV. It is starting to change with things like TVO, but not fast enough!]
Transport:- Miniscooters [I love miniscooters but they rent them to tourist here on the island! OMG tourists! Acting like tourists! ON MINIBIKES! Scary!]
Book:- ? [any bible or "holy" text that humans still worship as absolute truth]
Country:- Iran [I'd say part of a country, which really should be part of Canada and that's Alaska, just makes sense ;o)]


K-OS' Crabbucket (here's the video http://www.mp3.com/tracks/5532912/dl_streams.html ) Just because they talked about it and played 20 seconds of it. K-OS won a few Juno awards last year. (Canadian music awards)


Hello Tea Boy Josh!!!!

You guys were doing great with Betty Davis Eyes! I don't think you should have stopped!!! Though the next one (#200) was great too.

TAMARA SINGS SONGS ON THE SNUG... BNL's Good Boy (Hey I didn't listen to myself sing during the live show but I listened while writing the blog and heard Maf sing along, you sounded great Maf!)

Wow and the show ends... Boy it went fast! OK well Maf won in the quotes again!
Right I've spent 2 nights working on the blog, as well as caring for a one week old kitten. He's a rescued little orphan, his siblings died but he's strong. I am feeding him every 2 -3 hrs during the day (sometimes more often) and am up with him once or twice in the night. Long story short, if there are spelling mistakes or things that don't make sense...zzzzz...ummm err I'll take care of them later. Now I am off to feed the kitten. His name may be Smidgen or Smudge.
QUOTES OF THE WEEK

LEE(CATHOLICS, THEY DON'T DO NAUGHTY THINGS)

MAF (BUT I INTEND TO OFFEND A LOT OF PEOPLE TONIGHT) (I TOYED WITH LEG WARMERS) (I'M SURE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN INTERESTING IF I HAD THOUGHT ABOUT IT, BUT I DIDN'T) (PEE IN THE RELIGION POOL AND JUST MAKE IT UNSWIMMABLE)

PIRATE DAVE (WHAT YOU MEAN? THERE'S NO SANTA?) (DON'T DROP BOMBS, JUST PLAY THAT *chicken song*)

That ends this week's blog.

Tamara's log:
Snug date April 6 2006

SHOW 100... Way to go guys, here's to another 100 shows and then some! ;o)
Show starts with Lee not being able to hear himself but quickly sorts himself out!
Welcome Shelly! woo hoo!
Nearly 200 hours of The Snug recorded! They pull the crazy voice effects on Shelly.

Shelly panics at the thought of Maf removing his shorts to put them infront of the web cam. Shorts stay firmly where they belong.... Lee spits on their guest.
Shelly has arrived with gifts. Special 100th show mugs! Very nice... Maybe I'll get one....hmmmm?
Ya I shaved my head, not the whole thing but an under cut. If I had thought about it I would have shaved The Snug in for the 100th show.

False "this week's silence"

Maf had not seen the newest LOST, and so cursed us in the chat room for discussing it!

Bit of dissing the Smart car! I want to say the Smart car is a groovy little beast! I love them so much. I started a game kind of like punch buggy but instead of a punch in the arm when you seen a VW, you *tap* someone on the head when you see a Smart car. I would love to drive one around to see how it handles. Smart car = groovy!

First listener 100th show wishes - I sent a recording from James, Willow and myself. I got James to record just before he went to sleep Wed. night, and Willow just before she went out to play Thursday... I have been playing around with the audacity recording program...SO MUCH FUN!

Maf does a pig impression, sounds like a guinea pig. They had pirate sounds, I think they should do a guinea pig sound day!

Fluff is here this week! (sadly her PC connection craps out later on in the show :( ) I'm so lonely without her listening with me!

There are times in the show that I lose touch with what they are saying. Sometimes it's cultural, sometimes I'm sure it's a "guy" thing, and other times words come out of their mouths in the wrong order or they skip words... Not often, but every now and then, like several times durning a show...LOL No really not too often but enough to keep me amused by it when it does orrur.

Shelly read a joke and sounded Newfoundlandish. The accent reminds me of the amazing Canadian TV show HATCHING MATCHING AND DISPATCHING Here's a link...http://www.cbc.ca/hatching/ Sounds so much like it! Here's a link right to the page with clips...http://www.hatchingmatchinganddispatching.com/down.htm

Second and third attempt at this week's silence...

Maf's other half is listening! Maybe one day she'll join us in the chat! Come become a Snugette, the more the merrier!

Lee changes the name to Snog radio? Nahhhh
... mmm onion rings and chips soaked in brandy, aaaaghghghl (homer style) I had to call James and ask how you'd spell that.

Shelly, the most abused guest. Told she doesn't talk enough, starts talking and is told to shut up! Poor woman! give em hell next time Shelly!!

Talk about Kirsty Ally (sp?) Don't get me started on her! I am tired of her commercials. Especially the one where she's eating cake and talks with her mouth full, grrrrr do not like it! Gross!!!

Lee becomes rather morbid, talking about jumping to ones death.
Then...
Chavy scum...
Racsit girls...

Guest becomse territorial about the bell :o)
Good luck in court Shelly, let us know what happens?
Lee starts to sing softly, when I was listening live I thought it was Shelly singing! lol

Weird Canadian regulations about not being able to mention unbranded beer in ads. It's all my fault of course!

Another 100th show best wishes, this time from Tomato from Canoda ;o)

True story done as a mini play. Don't really know if it's true?!?! Still lol.

"Tamara Sings Songs on the Snug". Omm Pah Pah (which IS from Oliver) I wish the guys had sung along more! So I view my music slot slightly differently Maf? How's that then? New jingle needed? Hmmm? Different songs perhaps? Please explain?

Hey ya donate to my paypal so I can go live on the Snug! (that's live as in beehive not live as in give btw) I need a holiday *whine*whine*

ANOTHER *almost* this week's silence!

AND FINALLY a real "This week's silence"

Shelly is going to try to snag Snug listeners and start her own show The Snag. Or not... LOL...

Big hello to Nicky (Maf's better, I mean other half) from the studio and me... Again come join us...

Begging for texts... I'd do it but...Well...I already look like a freak, what with my e-mails, songs, voice clips, posts on the forum, signing up to web sites that make no sense, listen to the show twice (or more) AND doing the blog. OMG I am a freak!

room 101... Never heard of this kind thing but I think they'd like us to write in about things we hate... so do it. Maybe I'll surprise then and NOT send something...

Lee goes sound effect crazy.

There's chat about a show... I do not know what they are talking about at all. Out tv choices are so different!

Maf eats 'oops. Another victim of product placement. Talk of the evil coke and Pepsi, so here's a link representing the organic side of things!!!
http://www.scojuice.com/products/category.aspx?categoryID=80 The root beer is amazing!!

Shelly wants to go home already, she's got an early day in the morning. She is convinced to stay till the show is over...but no Snug 2. Well it was only me left anyway! Why should they sing just for me...I'll bet if Fluffy had not lost connection you'd have at least done 4 Min. Warning.

Lee goes off on a silly joke thread...

An amazing grandpa Simpson imitation by Maf.

Talking about Trading Spouses, Wife Swap etc... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5464505634137914176 Compare your scary woman to this scary woman... is she as scary, more scary or less scary? Tell me Maf!

Come for tea and stroke my shaved head!

hair-karaoke: A Good Heart by Fergal Sharkey I remember this song from my youth!!! Good job you three!!!

Show is over! Some pretty long quotes. Looks like Maf wins this week... Come on Lee be more funny next week. (NOT that you read the blog without prompting from Maf!)

Come back soon Shelly, or at least come join us in the chatroom soon!!!

QUOTES
SHELLY "IS THERE... ARE THERE... DO I...?" "PLEASE DON'T SPIT ON ME AGAIN" "OHHHH IT'S SUCH A BIG ONE" (talking about the size of the coffee Maf made, what were you thinking) "I DIDN'T HEAR THAT BIT I WASN'T LISTENING" "SHE'S GOT THE CUTEST DAUGHTER'S VOICE"

MAF "YOU CAN'T SAY THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT'LL GET PUT IN THE QUOTES SECTION IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL"
"AS NORMAL AS TAMARA CAN LOOK" (ok what does that mean Mr.Maf?)
"HOW CAN YOU GIVE BIRTH QUIETLY?"
"I COULD SHOW YOU NOW BUT THAT WOULD MEAN SHOWING YOU NOW"
"AND I DO LIKE, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE SEEN IT YET, BUT, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT WE DO A SHOW AND THEN I SIT DOWN AND GO WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT 2 HOURS ABOUT, I DIDN'T LISTEN TO ANY OF IT" (I love things out of context LOL)

LEE "YOU SAY TOMATO I SAY CANODA"

I've been Tamara and thus ends the blog! Good night.

Tamara's Log Snug date March 30th
I have no idea why I haven't done a show blog for a few weeks. No excuse really, just haven't...
But I am here now and all ready to listen to the PODCAST of The Snug.

Fluffy Lamb misses first show in over a year!! Computer troubles, she is sadly missed!

The show starts a little tongue tided. For an example see bottom for show quotes...

Lee dewberry computer thingyed. The web site (official Snug web site that is) has changed very very slightly. New buttons to click, clickable links and Lee is so proud and happy. I comment on the fact I had seen the changes but Maf misreads my words.....
Maf relays a conversation he had in his head about how intorerable he figured Lee must have been over the last week over his computer dewberry thingy...


Early this week silence....

Jane Russell did ads for the Cross Your Heart Bra. She may not have worn one but she flogged them. I remember the commercials from when I was a kid. The days the ads could only show a bra on the outside of the model's clothes.

The Sheens forever, for some reason they become obsessed with the Sheens...

"put that thing back where it came from"


Lee speaks in the Coyote and Road Runner's version of Latin.

RANT RANT RANT RANT RANT RANT RANT RANT

JAZZ HANDS!!!!! For Lee.... http://images.quizilla.com/N/neefer/1049243590_tten17jazz.jpg
http://www.david-dickinson.net/images/cheap-as-chips-video-rain1.jpg


I signed up for a site that Maf is suppose to be working on... The reason I signed up was Maf sent us there to check it out. There didn't seem to be anything going on so I thought in order to understand it I had to sign up... But I still don't understand but hey I'm registered! ;o)

High speed burst of Tamara. My web cam freezes and unfreezes. Apparently humorous. Happy to amuse.

Maf's questions "do they play darts in America?"

Tamara needs to do a jingle for "Tamara sings...."
For some reason I was 5 mins behind the broadcast ?!?!? It take awhile for the skype thing to work.... I end up having to call them... They actually think I was ignoring them!!! :o(
My mic on my laptop sounds bad, so I need to be on my desk top if I want to talk in the future... And my call got cut off :) I really did say goodbye!

Tamara Sings
I have an imaginary friend named Alice, based on Alice from the Brady Bunch. I did a parody of the Barenaked Ladies Be My Yoko Ono.
Lee thinks I am cleaver and he thinks I have a lovely voice....awwwww gone red now.... There is no challenge given for next week except Church Hill and "ohhh yesss!!"


Lee the song you played with U2 and Mary J Blige.... Since it is a U2 song wouldn't you say U2 featuring Mary J. ???

Pirate Dave is having trouble listening so there is a request for one of the top listeners to set up a "listen to the snug for dummies" Could be posted on the forum? or web site? Fluffy??? can ya? please hmmm?

Now I understand what Lee was talking about with Never the Bride song. I don't know the people they were talking about but the second time I listened, I thought "that sounds like a James Bond song."


New listener? Does Witch Doctress listen? If you do listen Witch Doctress, drop the Snug a line or comment here...
Spoilers for next week's show...
IT'S SHOW 100!!! Send your Snug stories today! Special guest Shellie!!

Show quotes. Just things I find amusing...
{LEE QUOTES "AND THERE UM... THERE'S UM... NO, THERE ISN'T REALLY" "BIGGER THAN YARSSSSS" "OH YESSS" "THE WEB SITE HAS CHANGED VERY VERY SLIGHTLY" "IF YOU'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG, WHY WORRY?"
"CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO DIAL UK-LY"

{MAF QUOTES "CHAV SCUM FAMILY" "SCUM BREEDS SCUM"
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOU JIVE TURKEYS"

Sorry Maf it seems Lee was more quotable this week. **shrugs**

Show ends with Hari Karaoke - 260 - Baby Love

Show ends, I am off to bed.

Goodnight!
