Over The Edge Vol. 3: The Weatherman's Dumb Stupid Come-Out Line
The Weatherman's Dumb Stupid Come-Out Line was the third volume in the Over the Edge series, which distills the best material from Negativland's radio program Over the Edge, broadcast on KPFA. This album was edited together from several different broadcasts recorded between 1982 and 1984.
Originally released in 1990 by SST Records on cassette only, it was re-released on August 11, 1998 by Negativland's own label, Seeland Records, as a CD with a booklet (Dad, A Bag is Coming: The Weatherman's Dumb Stupid Dictionary, as told to Peter Diddle) and additional printed matter.

Famous quotes containing the words over the, edge, dumb, stupid and/or line:
“And we won’t be back till its over over there.”
—George M. Cohan (1878–1942)
“The tongues of mocking wenches are as keen
As is the razor’s edge invisible.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The loss of my sight was a great fillip. If I could go deaf and dumb I think I might pant on to be a hundred.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“We are in the process of creating what deserves to be called the idiot culture. Not an idiot sub-culture, which every society has bubbling beneath the surface and which can provide harmless fun; but the culture itself. For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
“What is line? It is life. A line must live at each point along its course in such a way that the artist’s presence makes itself felt above that of the model.... With the writer, line takes precedence over form and content. It runs through the words he assembles. It strikes a continuous note unperceived by ear or eye. It is, in a way, the soul’s style, and if the line ceases to have a life of its own, if it only describes an arabesque, the soul is missing and the writing dies.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
