I dont think you have to log out at home before logging in somewhere else do you? I tried the other day and it seemed to work. Mind you Mudcat might have logged me out itself, it often does whether I want to or not.

And yet another welcome, Fred, this time from beautiful southeastern Pennsylvania, where Mudcat headquarters is located (in Max's dining room)!

As Gypsy says, you can sign up as a member now in order to reap the benefits immediately (the ability to send Private Messages to other members, save threads on your personal Tracer, add bookmarks to your personal page, bid on auction items, etc.)... then just be sure to go to the Membership page of the menu and "log out" before you leave Mudcat for the day. That way, you can "log in" on any computer, such as the ones at your local library, and you'll still be able to submit posts using your member-name AND still have a personal page and all the other bennies!

Welcome Fred! Since you'll find the 'Cat addictive for folkology and BS, consider one of the many/several free internet providers when your intro expires.

Hey Fred. We were all guests at one time. You can still join, and just access the net from your library. Welcome!

What I didnt pick up on immediately, and is seriously intriguing.Why does an American from Kentucky want to know the words of Rap'er to Bank?

Welcome aboard. I'm in Boulder, and one of our neighboring towns is spelled Louisville, pronounced (are you ready for this?) Loo-iss-ville --as though it were spelled Lewisville. It's a coal mine town (there was a vein of coal that ran through, and was the reason for, several towns on the eastern plain of Colorado).

How random was that? Anyway, we're glad to have you here. Come back again.

Welcome Fred. Don't bother about hostility to GUESTS, I experienced that when I arrived, till I got it figured out, there are some weirdos around who appear as GUEST just to stir up trouble. Couldnt understand your remark about Hamlet, by the way, in the Mumming Play thread.
Anyway, as you can see, you are welcome, do stay.I don't know anything about Louisville, except some guy was eight miles from the place when he felt a song coming on. Bet you don't know much about Stoke-om-Trent, England either..that's where I'm sitting at this moment

Hello Fred,

Like the others, I hope you'll find this site essential to the healthy flowing of your blood (on occasion, in more ways than one!)

As for the internet, consider this: Jim Wayne Miller was born October 21, 1936, in Leicester, North Carolina, and died August 18, 1996. He was born to James Woodrow Miller (deceased) and Edith (Smith) Miller. In 1958, Miller married Mary Ellen Yates. Their three children are James Yates, Fred Smith, and Ruth Ratcliff. Throughout his life, Miller was a poet, novelist, essayist, teacher, editor, and translator of books from German (Contemporary 290).

With the recent passing of Miller, the Appalachian literary world has lost one of the most important figures in its history. In addition to writing many poems, novels, and essays, Miller worked with many writers, both young and established. And Miller not only translated works for such poets as Emil Lerperger, he also edited and introduced books by Appalachian writers Jesse Stuart, Cratis Williams, and James Still (Brosi 51-54). According to eminent Southern-Appalachian writer Fred Chappell, "if it were not for Miller, the Appal lit movement might have foundered before it got started" (Leidig 1).

A proud heritage, indeed.

Didn't see you behind that complex metaphor!

the "confessions" you saw were probably people admitting to having responded to faceless, nameless, anonymous "guests" - not "guests" in general.

welcome - thanks for letting us kow a bit about yourself - dig deep into the midden archives and enjoy yourself!

hello, Fred. I hope you can find more info before your month's service is up. This site is packed with lots of discussions that are interesting and informative if you search them out. Try the Mudcat Memorable threads and some other classic threads that can be found in the FAQ thread at the top of the list.

Forgive me for being slow, I'm still a bit of a cyber-novice who was linked here from another discussion. Except for the person who posted that thread, about complex metaphor, nobody seems to say hello to a guest, unless they stir something up, and I keep seeing remarks about it, like someone 'confessing' they had actually posted replies to a guest. Well, I've just been nosing around, and have to love the only place I could find the lyrics to Rap 'er to Bank. I'm burning through one of those free-month-of- service things I don't intend to keep, so I don't want to hook up much of anything, right now. So that I'm at least not an anonymous guest, I'm Fred Miller, live in Louisville, current (temporary) e-mail is Mtmesis@wmconnect.com. My dad, the poet and Appalachian scholar Jim Wayne Miller, was a much more accreditted and knowledgable old-school folkie than I--I'm just a guy who plays guitar, rather randomly. I suppose this site reminds me a bit of him and his crowd. I've never been able to decide on a style or type of music I could stay focussed on. So, hi. Fred
