Subject: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Jan 10 - 06:19 PM First one of the year... Only one rule... the first drink is for Treaties, aka Theresa Tooley. Make it a small but powerful one, just like her. LTS |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 02 Jan 10 - 09:35 PM Why does this place smell like stale sauerkraut? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 02 Jan 10 - 10:02 PM Here's to you, Theresa. Liz, any chocolate back there behind the bar? With alcohol? I'd like some of that, whatever it is. Rap, you've been sniffing around that New Year's food traditions thread. I hope you didn't load up on the bean dishes. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Ebbie Date: 02 Jan 10 - 10:06 PM Hmmm. I haven't ever drunk anything more powerful than a brandy stinger with just a hint of creme de minte. I used to drink it but eventually it got too strong for me. But tonight I'll have one for Theresa. Here's to you, Theresa! Happy travelling and come back as you can. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: olddude Date: 02 Jan 10 - 10:28 PM strong coffee please |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Severn Date: 03 Jan 10 - 12:24 PM Strong coffee with cream here, if you please, so I can remember Theresa. Or anything else this morning..... The Jello pit has been cleaned out from the big singing dog fight at Christmas. The festive red and green Jello cubes have been replaced by ones of pomagranite and puce, the colors of Bullwinkle's old alma mater, Wotsomatta U. There are a few pennants around and it must be them playing in the annual Tidy Bowl game on the TV by the bar. 'Tis the season. But it's still a bit early in the day for me to start waiving pennance and breaking resolutions just yet I haven't even finished making them. Where's the serving wench with the mug of caffiene? Oh, here she is! Thank you! Here's to Theresa! Also here's a health to your resolutions! (a great "Huzzah!" from the crowd) Likewise the Eliza Swann! ("Swanee, how we love ya, how we love ya......") Cheer up, and let your hearts never fail!..... Another coffee, please! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 03 Jan 10 - 03:36 PM And your farts never hail.... Squiddy, you need to freshen up with that deodorant puddle... LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 03 Jan 10 - 05:06 PM I guess I missed that last party. Bummer. Toss some baking soda over to the squid, that'll work better than deodorant anyway. Anything interesting on the menu? I don't feel like cooking. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: gnu Date: 03 Jan 10 - 05:13 PM I got a cold can a beans open. Ya want half on a slice of breadÉ |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: gnu Date: 03 Jan 10 - 05:15 PM My question mark is messed up againÉ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 03 Jan 10 - 05:43 PM Double Jack Daniels straight up and straight down. To Theresa! I have a house full of leftovers. Snow kept a few away. Ham, Corn Pudding, Scallopped potatoes, creamed corn, deseerts, desserts, desserts, wine, champagne, and even a bit of some heavenlyt raspberry cordial micca left on his last visit. Happy New Year. Be healthy and prosperous and happy. Please... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: gnu Date: 03 Jan 10 - 06:01 PM Scallopped potatoesÉ. Oh my! You even spelled potatoes correctly! They MUST be tastey! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: olddude Date: 03 Jan 10 - 07:53 PM Can I have a slice of Maeves pie to go with the coffee please |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Severn Date: 03 Jan 10 - 10:04 PM The Giant Squid is listening to the cephlo-i-pod he got for Christmas that can play music underwater. He also got a vintage Gilled Guitar for the same purpose for when he wante to play his own stuff. I have yet to hear any Squiddy originals, and I'm kinda curious as to what they'll sound like..... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 03 Jan 10 - 10:07 PM Barkeep! Gimme an Ardbeg with sauerkraut, por favor! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Jan 10 - 03:51 AM Barkeep - if he's having the sauerkraut, I'll have a triple creme de menthe and the air freshener please! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: skarpi Date: 04 Jan 10 - 04:14 AM hmmm I think Liz you should give Ebbie Brennivín all the bottle then she can tell us if thats strong enough it has to be cold . unless you have finished the bottle :o) I ´ll just have Ardberg whiskey glass thanks. Happy new year all from snowless south Iceland . Skarpi |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 04 Jan 10 - 08:40 AM Ah, bartender? Could I have a bucket, please? I'm about to...do something socially irresponsible. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 04 Jan 10 - 08:48 AM Oh for heaven's sake! All over the floor, Rap! That's nasty! Here comes the squid. Maybe he'll clean it up. I won't. I am out of here. YUK |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Jan 10 - 09:34 AM EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! Why is there always carrots? I'll get me coat. LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: MMario Date: 04 Jan 10 - 10:42 AM Something small and strong in memory of Theresa? I'll drink to that! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Severn Date: 04 Jan 10 - 01:00 PM Somebody puts Severn's prized copy of "Sour Kraut In Hi-Fi" by The Guckenheimer Sour Kraut Band on the box as music to clean up by. The one with the wonderful cover illustrations by band member/famed "Grin And Bear It" cartoonist George Lichty. Their immortal version of "Skater's Waltz" seems perfect for the task at hand, as Squid and his crew slide and glide across the floor, sometimes on purpose..... "Some enchanted evening You'll see something strange, and You'll smell something stranger, Across a Kraut-ed room....." Wow! Bottles of Lestoil and Pine-Sol! Must be old. I didn't know they still made that stuff. Rap is assigned a spare bucket to carry beside him at all times..... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 04 Jan 10 - 01:12 PM Well, I didn't know. Amos told me to order it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Jan 10 - 02:44 PM HE said order it, not drink it down in one like that! You should never drink anything that's a brighter green than Kermit. LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: MMario Date: 04 Jan 10 - 02:51 PM Or that glows in the dark. I'll have another of those strort shong pinks drease! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 04 Jan 10 - 09:47 PM He said, "Chug it down. You ain't got a pair if you don't." He insulted my masculinity! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Severn Date: 04 Jan 10 - 11:21 PM You got yourself a Capistrano Cocktail, and sure enough, the swallows returned. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Ebbie Date: 04 Jan 10 - 11:33 PM lol Skarpi, thanks. She just gave me the whole bottle. (Nothing in it, of course. No dummy, she.) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Jan 10 - 03:01 AM Ain't as green as I'm cabbage looking!! Seriously chaps, fire up the stove, the dawn is coming up like the proverbial thunder, but with blood, fire and a New England Autumn thrown in... The sky looks like one huge bruised wound and if the shepherds and sailors are right (and they usually are), we in the UK, if we haven't already had a rough night, are in for one horrible day weather-wise.... Get the soup and the hot chocolate on... cos baby, it's cold outside! Make mine a double choco-mocha with lentil soup on the side. LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 05 Jan 10 - 08:54 AM I'd like a hot ruttered bum...I mean, a hot buttered rum. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 05 Jan 10 - 09:16 AM Pepto Bismol for you, Rap. i am still cleaning the mess off my shoes. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Severn Date: 05 Jan 10 - 01:58 PM At least Pepto-Abysmal looks the same coming back out as it did going in. A lovely soothing shade of yard phlegm-ingo pink..... How come no one ever talks about gurgitating the first time, rather than just the "urge to regurge"? Sorry, Rap, I won't bring it up again if you won't.... Has anyone made any memorable resolutions? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Jack the Sailor Date: 05 Jan 10 - 03:26 PM I'll have a NyQuil Martini please. Not Shaken. I don't want to stir until morning. My resolution is to write some of the stories and screenplays I have been thinking about. Wish me luck OK? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 05 Jan 10 - 03:48 PM I shall never again let Amos suggest a drink. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Amos Date: 05 Jan 10 - 03:51 PM Jack: You probably don't need luck, since you have talent; what you need is to put your ass in the writing chair and leave it there until you've made your day's target...oh, and thanks for the opportunity for projection!! :D A |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 05 Jan 10 - 04:13 PM Why would you listen to a guy who puts priceless single malt in coffee? as she creeps quietly away... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Jack the Sailor Date: 05 Jan 10 - 04:24 PM May I point out that single malt is not priceless. It does have a price. It has a price I cannot afford. That is why I drank blended scotch this Christmas. McIvor |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Jan 10 - 06:47 PM Why would you do that to good coffee?! It's snowing now, has been for about 40 mins and it's already an inch thick... it could be an interesting day tomorrow... Pour me one of those rot buttered bums please, I can feel a 'snow day' coming on! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 05 Jan 10 - 09:53 PM You know, what this place needs is some cheering up, and nothing cheers people up like he says, dumping a huge pile from his rucksack onto the floor near the fireplace. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 06 Jan 10 - 05:19 AM I god a cowd... it's all Cllr's fault.. him and that damned mistletoe!!! (ah, but it was fun!) More rot hustled bum please, with extra bum... RAp... can I have a little chat with you about elf and safety.....? EVERYBODY DOWN!!! LTS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:02 AM WWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cries the Squid as he rides a rocket to the rafters and releaves a ruffled Liz of her rum as he rushes by. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:17 AM Pyrotechnics: the way to party hearty! "Everything could benefit from the introduction of rocketry." |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: MMario Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:34 AM Here I live in a stinkin' area famed for it's snow, and am I getting any? No! To the East, yes, to the west, yes, to the south, yes, north (just north of where I work) yes.... but I evidenlty live and work in a "No snow Zone" this year. THIS STINKS!!!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:36 AM OOOPS - RELIEVED Give me your address, MMario, and I will send you some. But be careful what you wish for... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: MMario Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:44 AM I just want a snow day..... or an excuse to call in sick.... Speaking of which - why do Dr.'s clear you to go back to work when the incision is still open and weeping? Not comfortable. Not comfortable at all.... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 06 Jan 10 - 09:51 AM Because a) they want to gross out your co-workers and, b) they hope it will become undone and/or infected so you have to pay for more surgery and stuff. I knew a guy who had his appendix taken out and ended up tonsorially challenged. Know another guy who got an infection from a splinter and as a result ended up dead in a mine cave-in. Terrible what can happen when doctors whittle on you. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 06 Jan 10 - 10:55 AM Rap, you really have to get back on your meds. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: Rapparee Date: 06 Jan 10 - 05:43 PM Never! Never! The voices in my head tell me not to and I do what they tell me. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat New Year Tavern 2010 From: gnu Date: 06 Jan 10 - 06:00 PM Pepto Bismol and voldka, please. Seriously, I ain`t shittin. |
