Sorry to hound you about it, but I’d love to add the Mango to my Flattr donate targets – could you add a Flattr button?

+1 for Penelope Pitstop.

+1 for knowing I have a white suit. To be fair, though, I bought it during the hysteria surrounding the release of Saturday Night Fever. And “bought” is too strong a word. To get the suit, I had to dance , dance, dance! The good news is I got the suit for free. The bad news I had to “dance, dance, dance” like Horshack.

Ikwym.

In my first draft Bill Bixby merely got angry. Then I asked myself, why don’t I make that a jumping off point into something ridiculous? I typed in “angry” at a rhyming dictionary website. Only one word rhymes with angry. Once I went with it, I thought of you.

Lots of comic book heroes are “guile heroes”, winning by smarts not by powers.

Fact is, Tony Stark/Iron Man is often depicted this way. So it totally works.

Comment on Episode 93 – Nexoskeleton by Matthew

Matthew — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 16:12:10 +0000

I’m not a pastiche kind of guy. If I tried, I’d only twist it.

It makes me sad that I have usual fare, but I have to admit that I do.

****HERE BE SPOILERY****

I actually got stuck after all the bad stuff started happening to Zip and I thought the ending was going to get very dark. Then I thought about comic book superheroes and how they don’t necessarily win their battles with their powers, but by being clever, so I knew that Zip could turn things around too.

Of course we think it’s cool, sugar.

You were doing a few other things at the time, but it’s possible you might remember that this past May, you induced a potato chip craving in a friend of mine. Now Paul’s hungry. You might think about using your powers in connection with a marketing campaign. Talk up dried mango slices until we all want some. Okay, dried fruit isn’t as exciting as a fresh juicy mango, but much easier to ship. For every 4 units ordered, throw in a bag of candied ginger. The slices, please, not the irregular chunks. And for pity’s sake no maple-cured ginger. It’s already ginger, it doesn’t need maple. Okay, I’m into it now. Call me when you’re ready to launch.

Nice use of Lo.

The 15th and the 30th, actually, but I’ll forgive you. When I decided to do another MuchoMangoMayo next year, I knew I wanted to get ahead of the game so I wouldn’t have to kill myself in May like I did this year. So I’m making one episode a week but only running two a month. By the time May hits, I should have 24 episodes already in the can. Mucho!

It’s these little tips that improve the quality of the show. Alas, I’m sure I couldn’t afford whatever that fancy thing is that you’re talking about. The Mango spent all of the show’s money on a spa resort in Aruba.

Elke — Sat, 28 May 2011 22:49:44 +0000

Did I ever tell you, I forwarded that Everyday Weirdness link to a few people when I first read it (led there by The Creepy Little Mailbox Man). One was a lifelong Catholic–not one of these just until I got old enough to know better types, but still Catholic 50 years later. In the end I said “what the heck.” She was sure to appreciate the eraser bit. I have a reputation to maintain as one of her more eccentric friends.

She made no comment about the pencil story, but she did stop forwarding me cute animal picture for a couple of months so it was completely worth it. I still owe you for that.

Three more days and then what will become of us?

I didn’t really mean that you should continue to throw your life into the mango maw for us all–and particularly because it fits so nicely into my day, that would be ridiculously selfish. But if you happened to be inclined that way anyway already…No, no, I would become concerned for your health.

Women are suckers for a subtle allure. “Oh, what’s that?” women say. “What is behind it? If he only gives me a chance, maybe I will be the one who draws him out.” Certainly you could get a couple of drinks out of that old standby. Pair it up with a dark secret and emotional unavailability, and it’s moths to the flame with women.

Aw, heck no! The Mango is eating my life right now and not even spitting out the seeds. I’m glad you’re digging it and I’m enjoying the creative challenge, but I’ve postponed all my other projects for this month because of it. Maybe when I’m financially independent and certifiably insane, I’ll do a new show every day forever and ever.

I schedule these to go up one minute after midnight. There was one screw-up a couple of days ago where I saved a draft instead of publishing a post and that one went out at, like, 6:34 am. So go ahead and get up. But I don’t know what you’re going to do after that five minutes of show.

Thanks, as always, for your feedback and support, Elke!

Half a baker’s dozen of I’m-into-this-morning-mango-routine. At what hour do you post these little beauties? Could I kick off the morning earlier than 6ish? Sometimes there just isn’t going to be any more sleep so just get the @%@ out of bed, can you identify with that by any stretch? When I stumble off to the shower, the background soundtrack would be like an old twangy Western song. Later, all squeaky clean, partaking in a glass of juice and the daily dose of brain stimulation through zaniness here, the soundtrack changes to your theme music. Have you considered just keeping it up for the summer?

Comment on Episode 63 – The Goatway by Matthew

Matthew — Tue, 17 May 2011 18:34:36 +0000

Actually, to me it’s still West Indian. My ex-wife is from Trinidad. There’s a large black population there and also a large Indian population, so Indian food has permeated the place. I don’t know a good place, sorry. Somewhere in the wilds of Brooklyn, somebody makes some awesome roti. I’ve only had it by way of the former in-laws. But, yeah, try it with roti if you get the chance.

Do you have a disclaimer to include reassuring us no actual goats were harmed for this podcast? Not so much on my account, I usually prefer a goat shorn for my sweater or curried on my plate, but once you attract the animals-are-better-than-you crowd…those are some tenacious people.

I’d gotten the melody wrong in my head and had to go back and watch Desi do it. I tried it four times and went with the best, but none of the others were funny enough to run.

You’re going to think me a Philistine, but I’m not sure that I’d ever heard Siboney before you mentioned it. I listened to the Connie Francis version on YouTube. Gorgeous song! Thanks for introducing me to it. I’m not even going to attempt to sing that one.

Elke — Wed, 11 May 2011 00:42:01 +0000

Skip it? Not a chance. It’s our new morning routine–at least, probably most of us. Some of us may be evening-after-work types. It’s not for me to judge.

You do make many food references, now that you mention it. Here’s one back at you. I am not naked & flipping you off when listening. In the new morning routine, I’m wearing work clothes and holding a slim piece of toast, which is adequate for the precise & even peanut butter layer but comes near buckling due to the banana on top, and is further weakened if my toast hand spasms when my brain registers some new zaniness. Yeah, it’s life on the edge as a mango listener this month. I could lose a banana slice onto my skirt and you know it would fall peanut-butter side down.

Any other tales of dangerous listening available?
