Subject: The Mudcat Prom
From: Caitrin
Date: 26 Mar 00 - 09:13 AM

*The gym/auditorium looks a lot different now that Caitrin and the rest of the decorations committee got up all the tin foil stars and soft lights, and Leej and his crew dug the canals. Up on the stage, Caitrin, in her official sixties miniskirt, is getting everything ready to go.*
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. (I, of course, use the terms loosely.) Welcome to the Mudcat Prom...As our dear host Leej has told you, our theme is "A Magical Night in Old VEnice," and I'd like to have one more round of applause from our canal diggers, and thanks to all those underclassmen who agreed to work as boatmen. Y'all're great! Now, it's time to start the dancing! DJ, get us some music!

From: Peter T.
Date: 26 Mar 00 - 11:13 AM

We need to have a room for people whose experiences of proms were even lower than Wyowoman's. I envisage something designed with the following characteristics: it is connected to both the men's and women's washrooms, but is more like an antechamber so that you can go there when you are totally humiliated and not see anyone, but you can say you have to go to the washroom. It has no walls so you can't be a wallflower. You can throw up in peace and privacy. Attached to this special room is another special room where future Mudcatters in your later lifetimes are waiting to dance with you, and when you come in, the music is fine, and everyone talks to everyone, everyone dances with everyone, the beautiful and the plain, the smart and the not so smart, the rich and the not so rich, and no one goes home sad. No one dances with his or her relatives unless they want to. No one stands out in the parking lot with stains on her new dress, crying uncontrollably. No one hits anyone else. All the romance of a Venice night somehow magically pours off of the cheap crepe paper, and the moon rises over the rim of the basketball hoops. There is a big banner overhead which says "WELCOME TO THE BODHISATTVA ROOM: dancing for all, down to the lowest blade of grass."

Well Amos, I never had a prom 'cause I never went to high school, so...

Place looks great, Caitrin! DJ? DJ?! We got ourselves a LIVE BAND! Midnight Blue is our name, and I'm lead male vocalist & guitar player (when I'm not dancing!).

Ahh..good! A Night in Venice! Does my Italian soul good! Remind me to sing "Non Ti Scordar Di Me" later.

Peter, shouldn't it be the Siddhartha Gautama room? It's more fun to say!

Want some good music? Click here for the jukebox! Click C3, C5, or C6 on the juke pushbuttons for some good jivin' tunes!

The Schmielzo Polka lessons will be available after the dinner interval, form Hardiman and Praise. (This is the ideal dance for people who have spent time or are considering sepnding time) in Peter's Bodhisattva Room but are ready for the next level-- as well as people who don't give a damn and just like to dance.) No experience, confidence, or dancing skill necessary!

What's it all about? Just click right here to learn more!

Then come back, and sign up!

Sorry, Ickle...I'll fill you in on the whole "Prom" thing. As I'm sure you've gathered, it's a big dance. Only for seniors (and sometimes juniors) in high school. It's often over-hyped, and many people end up having a not-so-hot time. However, we're now getting a chance to have a Mudcat prom...better music, more fun people, better food, better decorations, and just in general more fun.
Sorry, Mbo! I should've thought of that. Of course...live band!

Lovely Peter. Dancing from Orion and Casseopeia right down to the teensiest blade of grass. Wherever you go may there be music and light, and if you have to vomit, may there always be a friend to hold back your hair.

When does Midnight Blue start to play...this I have to see.

Warning from the snack bar volunteers -- the principal just came along with a gallon Mason jar full of Ruby Slone's best corn squeezin's and ordered us to spike the big punch bowl. There's no alcohol in the smaller one, just kava kava. Now there's a slow dance on and the principal -- who is she, anyway? -- is out on the floor telling several couples to squeeze closer together.
The band's got some weird instruments and on the last number had everybody doing a line dance they called "Flight of the Cosmic Hippo." Before that, they were doing the depka, a Syrian folk dance, to Havah Nagila and hundreds of people were snaking through the room waving handkerchiefs and squatting to kick on the fourth beat. And they tell me the prom queen will float in on a gargantuan guitar? What kind of place is this?

Chorus:
Let's go to the hop.
Let's go to the hop.
Oh baby
Let's go to the hop.
Oh baby
Let's go to the hop.
Come on
Let's go to the hop.

Let's go to the hop.
Let's go to the hop.
Oh baby
Let's go to the hop.
Oh baby
Let's go to the hop.
Come on
Let's go to the hop.

Well, you can rock it you can roll it
Do the stomp and really stroll it
At the hop.
When the record starts spinning
You *chalypso* when you chicken
At the hop.
Do the dance sensation
That is sweeping the nation
At the hop.

You can swing it you can groove it
You can really start to move it
At the hop.
Where the jockey is the smoothest
And the music is the coolest
At the hop.
All the cats and chicks
Can get their kicks
At the hop.
Let's go!

Sorry, Amos, but I had to edit out your embedded MIDI because some people were complaining it was crashing their computers. It was really, cool, though. Embedded objects from other sites are not permitted in the Forum - they cause too many problems for too many people. If you use the <pre> command here, you still have to use line breaks.
Nice try, though....

Dang, no one left to dance with... :(

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could
Mold you into someone who could
Cherish me as much as I cherish you

Perish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams
That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes
That I am not gonna be the one to share what
Seems to be the life that you could
Cherish as much as I do yours

Oh I'm beginning to think that man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound
That could make you hear, make you see
That you are drivin' me out of my mind

Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize
That I want you just like a thousand other guys
Who'd say they loved you
With all the rest of their lies
When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands
And gaze into your eyes

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could
Mold you into someone who could
Cherish me as much as I cherish you

And I do
Cherish you
And I do
Cherish you

Cherish is the word

Black and orange stray cat sittin' on a fence.
Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent.
I'm flat broke but I don't care,
I strut right by with my tail in the air.

Stray cat strut I'm a ladies cat,
I'm a feline Casanova hey man that's that.
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man.
Get my dinner from a garbage can.

I don't bother chasing mice around.
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howlin' to the moonlight on a hot summer night.
Singin' the blues while the lady cats cry.
Wild stray cat you're a real gone guy.
I wish I could be as care-free and wild,
But I got cat class and I got cat style.

I'm giggling with delight that you like the photo, Mbo, even thought it's so terrible. Oh, and ceit? Right after this photo was taken, we went out on the dance floor, and a swing song started, and my friend (I promise that's all we were) and I, both being good swing dancers, started to dance. In fact, we got a circle around us. It was pretty cool. N-E-Wayz.... We did a complicated little "The Pretzel" move, and guess what? Well, my perfect little hairdresser apparently wasn't so perfect after all... She didn't put enought hairspray in, and everything fell down. Oh well. If you want, Mbo, you can go back to the site and look at all the pictures. There are some pretty good ones under the 15th birthday file! =)

Ok, Barky, you've drunk your hot blood for tonight! Chill down and sweet dreams from your most loving protector and Dad.

Now y'all who wanted to waltz, we gonna spin us, the genuine O-riginal, ALL the way from 19 FIFty foah, (scratch of needle being set down) (pulchritudinous throaty blonde voice....)

I was dancing
With my sweet heart
To the Tennnnnnnnessseeee Waltz, When an old friend, I happened to see...


And the crowd melts into beuatiful bobbing and twirling couples, glinting in the lowered lights of the sparkling gym, as all the graduates of Ms. Thelma Boleyn's Junior Dancing Class, now seniors at the prom, remember their hard-earned, white-gloved lessons, remember the crinolines and the Wild Root Cream Oil, and sway to those old lessons anew, weaving, scraping, turning, bowing and lilting across the floor to the strains of...

.......the beauuuuuuutiful Tenesseeeeee Waltz!........

*As everyone melts into a reviere of memories, the record ends, and keeps on turning on the needle, of course, ruining the record. An hour later, everyone snaps out of it, except some of the youngn's such as Barky, who have been chuckling like crazy, and everyone SCREAMS! and runs to save the record which has already been ruined.* Ooooh... Barky's evil. Thank you Mbo. I really appreciate that. I haven't gotten many compliments like that. Only from my parents, and why should I believe them? *BG* Just kidding, but seriously. Thanks very much.

Amos, you should remove the photos, and have Max remove the link Barky created.

I was able to drill through all the folders contained on your website....pictures of ships...your wife's business...her email address...etc..

We have no malicious intentions towards you or your family whatsoever and rest assured...but if we can navigate through all the folders and files placed on your website as a result of this ''simple'' link, gather information...and hypothetically FTP into it and alter pages, and change info at a later time.....imagine what a real hacker or hacker/perve could do.

Your daughter is attractive....but a 15 year old shouldn't be providing all sorts of family information on the Internet in a public forum....even if you trust the majority of people on this forum...That;s just plain stupidity.

Teach her about discretion, and to use caution no matter how safe and protected she might think she is on the Net, with her Dad nearby on a very public forum...

...and of course you have a testosterone deprived MBO with serious emotional problems to boot, now thanks to the link, lying in bed nightly fantasizing about her and possibly more...He's just nuts enough to show up on your doorstep one day...Would be a piece of cake to get your home address, and have an unwelcomed guest/stalker/obsessive-compulsive start shadowing Barky. (If Gargoyle could be tracked down, and given the amount of info we already know about you, Barky, your profile on BBC's pages, etc......well you get the idea.)

I wrote this message to you out of genuine concern and there is really nothing further up my sleeve. You can listen and heed this advice...or ignore. Your call, and you live with any possible consequences.

Well Thank God! I felt sure that Spock (whoever that is) would be dumped on from a great hight for his/her absolutely spot-on advice. I don't have children (teenage or otherwise) but I read the newspapers every day, and I was dumbfounded that a parent would allow that kind of exposure/information to be released into cyberspace.

That took guts (even anonymously) in the current climate. Thanks, Spock.

What a drab way to end this thread on "The Mudcat Prom", you are all talking about COMPUTERS. I'm sure there's some sage advice here, but I've been gone for a week and I come back to this thread to see cybershit! While it makes me think, I'd really rather dance. When I left, we didn't know if a deck was gonna be built. Now I'm worried about my daughters. Either get it back upbeat or drop it. Anybody got a half-decent mandolin I can use?

TTCM, I am so sorry that you know so little of my world!!! Why don't you join so we can address that in the personals? Or, if you prefer, engage me in the thread named toward you and we can discuss there-- there are a lot of things I would love to talk to you about and it would be fine with me to do it in the open.

I was out yesterday at a union meeting (white collar: I have fond memories of marching to the Houses of Parliament many years ago behind the banner bearing the stirring and strange device "Rectify the Anomaly"!).
So, belated blushes & thanks to Iodine and Praise. I didn't miss a prom in the US sense we just didn't have them at all and I felt at my age the only role for me now would be as a chaperone! Still it was nice to have a cyberdance, ny blue suede shoes are hardly scuffed. See you on the riverboat.
