@Randy Marthins - There will be no Curved AIr, a band I love, but am not aware of any color-themed songs by them!, OR the artist they took their name from, Terry Riley! I DO love Terry Riley's A Rainbow In Curved Air, but it's too long for today's show!
Jonathan E 5:13:01 PM
OOOOMG, the reading rainbow!!!! My mom was a reading teacher, did the Reading Recovery program that was federally funded to pull kids out of class to catch them up on reading skills so they wouldn't be out on the, "other" track where they get held back, put in special ed, etc. she was so good at it that they made hera teacher leader, thena teacher leader trainer, then adjunct faculty at NYU and Rutgers to help train other teacher leader trainers, etc Thnx for reminding me how awesome mom was

Lizbot (host) 5:18:08 PM
@Jonathan E - My mom ALSO became adjunct at NYU in the same program!! Our moms MUST know each other, unless they were there in different decades. Mine started teaching in the early 60s as a classroom teacher and a reading specialist, but started Reading Recovery in the early 90s.
Lizbot (host) 5:18:20 PM

My mom did reading recovery basically my whole life, I was born in 81. She taught 8th grade for a bit and HATED it and almost quit teaching over how terrible the kids were lol...
Lizbot (host) 5:19:26 PM
@Randy Marthins - Ha! I never saw Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, but it sounds like his denim jacket was a descendant

Lizbot (host) 5:46:52 PM
@Rob from Maryland 🦀 - My catbird hasn't returned yet and my porch is under construction so I don't know if she'll come back soon!

@George Korein - Cats, I believe, are in fact a MAJOR threat to birds, but they hypnotize us with their purrings so we let them get away with a lot!
DJ Readie 5:53:55 PM
Wow, sorry to hear about the double-rainbow guy passing! RIP!!
Cody Brown 5:54:46 PM
Never heard that version of Colours/Donovan before
Lizbot (host) 5:56:00 PM

Rob from Maryland 🦀 5:57:37 PM

Randy Marthins 6:00:19 PM
@rob - I could be wrong but I think I read that the human eye can distinguish variations in GREEN more than any other color?
Randy Marthins 6:01:33 PM
The mantis shrimp can see into the ultraviolet and infrared spectrum
Lizbot (host) 6:01:54 PM
@Amy Lee - I've had three cats, all Philly strays. The first one I managed to keep indoors. She also was kind of a wuss and a marshmallow. The 2nd one was a vert tough adult (but truly a scholar and a gentleman of a cat) before I took him in, so he remained indoor/outdoor because he wouldn't have had it any other way, and the third was a stray kitten who had three brain cells!
Lizbot (host) 6:02:56 PM
@Randy Marthins - Whoa! Mantis shrimp is also a cool name! If you want to be creeped out, look up the peppermint shrimp - Its babies hatch out from inside it, ripping it apart! Very Giving Tree!
Randy Marthins 6:03:14 PM
@amy - did that cat bring wounded friends home, or do you mean there would "suddenly" be a litter of kittens to take care of? We had the latter

DJ Readie 7:07:43 PM
@Carlos - have you seen the "Perfect Neighbor" doc? heartbreaking
Lizbot (host) 7:08:01 PM
@Carlos Ramone - Was the Philadelphia Mag story about those neighbors who used to be friends but one started taking in dozens of cats and the cats started using her neighbor's yard as a litter box, thus the battle began??! I saw that!
Alan Parsec 7:08:08 PM

Randy Marthins 7:17:17 PM
