Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Mar 00 - 05:45 PM You know, he's right!! Let me hang up a sign-- THE TAVERN IS TEMPORARILY CLOSED FOR SPRING CLEANING. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Peter T. Date: 24 Mar 00 - 05:37 PM Well, I am shocked, SHOCKED!!! to find carousing and filth and degradation going on in a tavern, for pity's sake. And during LENT!!!!!!!! Dragging down the fine mudcat name down into the, well, the mud. Can we not, comrades, generate a higher quality of mud??????? I suggest it is time for some spring cleaning (scrubby-dub dub, suggy sug sug), here: !!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Mbo Date: 24 Mar 00 - 04:41 PM I'm now gonna sing a song that I wrote (music only, of course)! Sorcha, this one needs some waltzing fiddle solos...wanna help? It's called "Scotland" Here in the uplands The soil is ungrateful; The fields, red with sorrel, Are stony and bare. A few trees, wind-twisted— Or are they but bushes?— Stand stubbornly guarding A home here and there. Scooped out like a saucer, The land lies before me; The waters, once scattered, Flow orderly now Through fields where the ghost Of the marsh and the moorland Still ride the old marches, Despising the plough. The marsh and the moorland Are not to be banished; The bracken and heather, The glory of broom, Usurp all the balks And the fields' broken fringes, And claim from the sower Their portion of room. This is my country, The land that begat me. These windy spaces Are surely my own. And those who here toil In the sweat of their faces Are flesh of my flesh, And bone of my bone. Hard is the day's task Scotland, stern Mother— Wherewith at all times Thy sons have been faced; Labour by day, And scant rest in the gloaming With Want an attendant, Not lightly outpaced. Yet do thy children Honour and love thee. Harsh is thy schooling, Yet great is the gain: True hearts and strong limbs, The beauty of faces, Kissed by the wind And caressed by the rain. --Mbo

KUI, KUI, KUIAMA SHE CAME IN THE MORNING SHE SMILED BUT THE TEARS ON HER PRETTY FACE SHOWED THE PAIN THAT WAS FELT IN THAT FAR-OFF PLACE SO SAD, TREATED SO BAY-YA-YA-YAD!!! --Mbo |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: katlaughing Date: 24 Mar 00 - 04:14 PM There are old and new Mudcatters in this thread. I was making a general observation based on past threads and what I know to be the creative talent of all of you. Count me among this week's wet blankets. kat |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Mar 00 - 03:40 PM Well exCUSE the HELL out of NEWBIES. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: katlaughing Date: 24 Mar 00 - 03:09 PM Homeless, no rules, goals, etc. just started last summer by one of our creative genuises, Lonesome EJ, after a particularly rough patch, meant for fun and often used as a place to blow off steam. They were incredibly spontaneous AND full of BS, BUT creative BS, that went well beyond the type of sophomoric one-liners this one displays. One of the very best was the Mudcat Juke Joint, but any and all that come up are worth some reading time. Thanks for asking, Homeless. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Homeless Date: 24 Mar 00 - 02:35 PM kat - being one of those new people, I hadn't realized that these were a tradition, or that creativity was expected. I thought they were just BS sessions. Is there one specific thread I should look for to find out what the rules, goals, purpose, etc. are? Or did they just spontaneously appear (as creativity is wont to do)? |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: M. Ted (inactive) Date: 24 Mar 00 - 02:32 PM I am back again--and I remember that group, "The Whirling Peas", didn't they sing...no Î am thinking of somebody else--Lookout Kendall!! I see someone coming in with an electric guitar...oh, sorry, false alarm...he went into the pawnshop...Are you sure we are supposed inhale these Vodka Jello cubes? |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: katlaughing Date: 24 Mar 00 - 02:29 PM RANT ON/ Sorry, phoaks, I guess I've turned into an old timer/curmudgeon. Other than a few postings, this has got to be one of the most uninteresting, non-creative, disgusting Tavern threads I've ever seen here. Where's the creativity we've always seen in them? I pity any new person coming in here and reading this as representative of the Mudcat. I KNOW all of you in this thread have more talent than shows up here. PLEASE, set the date on the threads to several months or one year, put Tavern or Pub in the filter box and go back and read some of them. They showed off the creative genius of the Mducat to its best./RANT OFF kat

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Homeless Date: 24 Mar 00 - 11:23 AM Molly - You don't want me to give away the whole answer right away do you? How much detail should my explanation go into? Praise - take a tip from the inebriated - if you crawl across the floor you're less likely to fall down (and you get a better view of knickers). |

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSSS......... BETTER GET FUGGIN!!!

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Molly Malone Date: 24 Mar 00 - 11:14 AM OH, Homeless. You're just guessing... you'll have to do better than that! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Homeless Date: 24 Mar 00 - 11:11 AM Molly - anything to do with horses' hoofs? (in both instances) What do I win? What do I win? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Homeless Date: 24 Mar 00 - 11:07 AM Yeah, I'm here. I'm ready for an entertaining education - go ahead and play your song. As long as it's about world peace and not whirled peas. Peas and jello don't mix - not even green jello. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Molly Malone Date: 24 Mar 00 - 11:03 AM You know, I had to tell a strict vegan about jello when I was her eatting it once. She was also a photographer. Anyone who see this connection gets bonus points for the day. ;) |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: M. Ted (inactive) Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:56 AM I am sorry I've been gone so long....I went home to get my guitar, because I have this song I really thought would fit.... It is about world peace, and children, and love, but mostly Jello, and how if we could just take some of the love that we have for Jello, and focus it on world peace, then there would be a lot of peace in the world,,,the only thing is that at the end of the song, because all the love has been transferred to world peace, there is none left for Jello....and one lonely child cries....... I don't usually write message songs, but..HELLO? Is there anybody even here?????

|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Molly Malone Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:51 AM Ok, if I can just get the door open..... And not slip on the Jello.... Whooooooooooooooooooops! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Mbo Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:27 AM An acid bath? Better put some aquatint on the items first! HA HA HA HA!!!! Sorry...printmaking humor... --Mbo |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:11 AM Oh, thank God. I've inspected the Jello Pit now and apparently Mbo and Sorcha only fired off a small test-bomblet-- there IS quite a bit of Jello on the walls and ceiling, but the Pit itself is inatact and actually in the bottom of it you can see quite a few things that look like they've been there for some time.... So it's nothing a good strong FUG can't take care of.... And you all can stop in anytime today to reclaim anything from the Pit that may be of interest to you. The balance of its contents are slated for acid bath sanitization later this evening. The Pit should be back in operation by midnight, General Mudcat Time. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: Mbo Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:06 AM Hey folks...I was just using fiberglass resin 2 weeks ago for a Design project...perhaps I could cast you a new jello pit? --Mbo |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: wysiwyg Date: 24 Mar 00 - 10:00 AM Kendall, unfortunately I believe that the Jello pit was blown up last night.... |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Tavern FUG-a-Thon Announced From: kendall Date: 24 Mar 00 - 08:34 AM OK, so, you caught me peeking in the window..dont know if I want to chance it or not..but, I might give the jello pit a go if I can "Go up against" Harpgirl?? |
