Howdy, Fred:— Welcome to the Mental Ward.

I've used earthlink as my ISP for a couple years. It costs about $20.00 a month and, for me, it functions well. By way of geographic location, I'm in Seattle (webbed feet, moss on my north side). I've been playing guitar (folk and classic) and singing folk songs for about fifty years, I believe I've attained geezerhood, and it's my ambition to be a curmudgeon when I grow up. My primary function here is to ramble on incessantly about what it was like in "The Good Old Days."

One of the things I love about this place is that if you ask a question, musical or otherwise, most of the time there is someone out there who can give you an answer, or a link to where you can find the answer. Mudcat has a few dark corners with a nasty spider or two in them, but that's incidental. The place can be a real educational experience and a heck of a lot of fun. Almost everybody has knowledge and experience to contribute and I'm looking forward to your posts. It's pretty much what you make of it. Enjoy!!
