I am still not convinced that "Kelida" is " A SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL." So, if someone can prove to me beyond a shadow of a doubt that "she" is who "she" claims to be, I will donate $50 to Max and check myself into the NYCFTTS. Lord knows I can use a rest. (That, my dear Amos is at the bottom of my post to the thread you spent at least five minutes flaming me on.) Let me point out that the thread in question qualifies in my book as a "troll." You know I am having so much fun stirring up trouble, I might just continue to do it!!!!!hahahahahahah

Kelida and her friend Erica were both at the gig that David C. and I played near Cincinnati a couple of weeks ago. If Kelida is not a seventeen-year-old, then I have never seen or been one. Kelida drew a handsome dragon on the paper tablecloth where the two of them sat. The two were sweet enough to take pictures and tape record the event. I also took a picture of the two of them together and one of Kelida by herself. The pictures just came back from being developed. I will soon be sending copies to Kelida. Then, if she deems either one to be a good enough picture, she might choose to send it to the resource page where we can all see it. I will soon do the same with a picture of me.

I'm sorry I didn't make the Cincy gig, but as Allan says Harpster, he does have pictures and as you know, Allan is a trustworthy fella' and you'll probably be meeting him soon on his trip as he's staying with Moon and I know he hopes to get together with you too.

I'm sorry, but you'll have to wait on the Insanevac Chopper because the crew is heavily booked picking up all those weirdos on the "Singin' in the Loo" thread. The Skiff will, however, have your room prepared and a tiple waiting. Bring an autozither along if you like, but be assured it will slow down the treatment process.

Where shall I have them pick you up? Will you be running nekkid along the river of what? Would you like to bring Dr. Boom along? The chopper has accomodations for up to four patients, but the flute fanatic may be assigned to a different wing, the one with the nose flute choir. On the plus side, you CAN eat lunch together. Does Moon want to come along?

...........and cough up the 50 clams. When Night Owl sprang for 40 bucks on that simple ass moustache tuner, I ponied up another 50 to Max for playing along.

Will that be in the form of a check? Or would you prefer to call Max with a credit card number?

Pray tell, WHY does it matter what/who you think Kelida is? What do you want, a certified/notarized birth certificate? And explain please, why it really is any business of yours. And just why does Allan's eyewitness evidence not count? What "obvious" reasons? somebody put a burr under your saddle again?

Gee, Harp, I didn't think I had started any flaming. I was just venting some protest against what I perceived as a kind of injustice. Lemme know when you get out, we'll talk if you want to.

Watch out for that chopper pilot on your trip, though -- he has spells when his meds run low and he kind of falls back into his 'Nam period. Use seat belt provided.:>)

Harpgirl,

I was going to send you a personal message, but when I looked up your name to send to, two harpgirls came up, one had a "*" at the end of it. Which one is the correct one for you?

I was just going to say, I think this was in bad taste, considering the recent history of identity thefts, flamers, and trolls we've had in the threads. In fact, it sounds as though you were trolling by starting this thread. I think it is a shame you decided to single out someone who apprarently has not caused you nor any other Mudcatters any harm.

If you meant it all as tongue-in-cheek, it didn't come across that way. As for any true colors being shown, it seems paranoia/distrust is one of yours.

Right, harp. What I really should do is crush people with invective, and then make it stick for a real long time, so they really get how wrong they are, and feel really bad and depressed, and hopefully stop communicating. Trouble is, see, unlike a number of medication-challenged muff-faced mule-brained multi-personality mainly malicious mulletheads in this part of the forest, I happen to like seeing people communicate. Present company excepted, of course...Just a personal preference, an idiosyncracy in favor of life.

'Course, I know the difference between communication and shit.

I guess I tuned in late.

I heard Harpgirl play th eother night on Hear Me and she was wonderful.

I always enjoy Amos's thoughtful, informative posts.

What is this thread about? How did this awful argument get started? How did mild kat get involved? (These are only rhetorical questions - Please don't try to answer them).

I can't believe that but that there is some sort of terrible misunderstanding going on and that soon all this verbal miasma will blow away, kind of like the family squabbles that used to break out at Thanksgiving and other holidays. Most of the invective was soon forgotten.

I hope so.

Well, anyone who prays to Buddha is certainly doing something right. Even a weenie can appreciate that!



As the current incarnation of the Great and Ancient Spirit of Lime-Green Jello I can reveal to you here, in strictest confidence, that thanks to a coordinated effort of the World Ecumenical Council, the International Monetary Fund, Interpol, The Trilateral Commission, International Business Machines, the Society for Underwater Life, and the Board of Directors of General Mills, in August of 1956, a global Bull was released recognizing the sanctity of, among other things, all the deities of the Christian church, the spirit of Gautam Siddartha, the Buddha, Muhammed, abalone, The Celestial Snipe worshiped in certain sections of the Denebian system, indigenous keilbasa, and Great Lime-Green Jello itself. So you all are on the right track.

Keep up the good work!

And may Betty Crocker smile upon all your efforts!

Wow. I can't believe I missed this. . . Rick Fielding sent me a personal message about some sort of controversy over me, and I hadn't even noticed THIS. Wow. I am beyond words, speechless--and it isn't very often that I, Bridget K. McKinney, dob 10-07-1982, am struck dumb. Wow. . .

I have sent Harpgirl a personal message (over a week ago, I think) explaining about me, even citing some personal information, but I see that has been ignored. I don't know what else to do.

Harpgirl--I still am clueless as to what I ever did to offend you, and I still wonder about my original question to you--What exactly about me has made you doubt my age, gender, whatever? Also, did this really warrant its very own thread? In a way I'm actually flattered, but I am also a bit worried about your obsession with this. You berate me for a thread I start that is at least somewhat music-related, although it is clearly labeled BS, but then you start a thread that is a direct personal attack against me. What gives?

Peace--Keli

Should we be surprised when a Harp Girl is the same?

I HeardHer at HearMe and it changed everything. I don't think fights ought to go to PM's anymore, where they can arrow is so deep you can hardly get the barb back out without help.

No, I think the squabbles oughtta go to HearMe, where the music can do what only music can. And where the messaging is fast enough to promptly un-stick a jest taken too hard, and where affection and respect flourish now on nearly a nightly basis along with the best music I've heard, all played fresh for friends.
