Being a bluesman I certainly don't come here for "above the line" 'cause there ain't no blues discussions going on up there...

I come here because the Devil hisself makes me come here...

That's my story...

It's 22 below zero outside. It's been cold and snowy since mid-November.
Mudcat can be done indoors. Yay!

I come here 'cos it's more interesting,and quieter,than going out*. If a thread name attracts me I'll have a look and maybe put my spoke in. If not, well, what the hell. I have a couple of good PM friends here, it's extremely unlikely I'l meet them but afain, what the hell. Over the years various 'catpersons have sent me cds or tapes and I've tried to do the same whenever I could. There is a tendency for some people to talk to each other over other peoples contribution to threads, but it's mostly the people who know each other, yet again, what the hell.
Generally speaking I like it here and would miss it if it wnet away.

That's a handsome combination on that blue safe. Generally, when it comes to sex, blue is not safe. But ya never know -- the wheels keep turning, the tumblers keep falling, and suddenly the door opens to a whole new experience.

Speaking of safe...

I never really understood this "safe sex" thing. I worked in businesses that had safes, and some of 'em were pretty big as safes go, but I don't recall seeing one big enough for two people to even squeeze into, much less have sex in.

Sure, you could have sex in a bank vault. You could have a friggin' orgy in some of 'em. But that would be "vault sex" wouldn't it?

I've been waiting for Sinsul's comeback to 'Spaw. He must have shocked her into silence with his gentle, reasoned statement.

C'mon, 'Spaw, don't hold back, tell it like you see it!

LH, wouldn't a better idea be to use the oil tankers that bring the West's oil to take our bathwater back? They could use it as ballast, then pump it ashore to grow date palms.
I like dates.

Bathwater can be recycled, you know. It is possible to use the same bath water for an entire week (assuming one bath a day for most people). All you really need is a small auxiliary heater to warm the water up in the tub prior to bathing, and there is a simple plug-in bathwater heater now available from the UK, and it was the inventive genius of Nigel Tufnel which made this all possible. (He's not just a rock n' roll visionary.) I recommend that everyone get one of these auxiliary bath water heaters and do the Earth a big favour by recycling your bath water. Do it now.

Hello,

For many of the reasons above and also because you get a quicker response than from those telephone help lines. You know, press 1 to hold, press 2 to be cut off, press 3 to be kept waiting while your bill gets higher and higher ......etc....

Also because its amazing, of course!

Best wishes,

Peter

Actually Sinsull had a wealth of ignominious crappola piling up, a Crap Buyer monkey on her back, and an Evil Mind. She came here to meet a few folks that she could lure into friendship and then unload her gawdawful, obnoxious, and often disgusting, garbage on them while purporting it to be Super Duper Shinola when it point of fact it was Complete Crummy Crap.
