Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Ron Davies Date: 31 Mar 06 - 12:02 AM So "Martin", I thought you were going to stay out where the air is breathable. But if you're happier down there, all we want is your happiness. You can take the boy out of the sewer but... But the wayward wind (of the sewer) is a restless wind--a restless wind, that yearns to wander. And he was born the next of kin, the next of kin to the wayward wind (of the sewer). Hey, now it's a music thread. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Once Famous Date: 30 Mar 06 - 11:52 PM fuck that. I thought it was "menstrual of the dawn." Isn't that an old Gordon Clubfoot song? Uh Oh, time for Ron to get offended and blow chunks in his shorts. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Ron Davies Date: 30 Mar 06 - 11:52 PM Of course now we have "Mudcat's Old Hippies" "Serious Advice Needed". But just wait til it's "Hillary Clinton: the best thing since..." "Mudcat's Old Hippies" |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Ron Davies Date: 30 Mar 06 - 11:49 PM Just look at the thread titles--"Mudcat's Old Hippies" "and it is beautiful". Pure coincidence? Hey man, feel the love. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Peace Date: 30 Mar 06 - 11:37 PM I have to ask: Is there lots of weed in the Sargasso Sea? |
Subject: BS: Mudcat's Old Hippies From: Once Famous Date: 30 Mar 06 - 11:36 PM I have often mentioned that once upon a time I was a hippie and was kind of proud of it. Long hair, enjoyed a good dube, hated the establishment, didn't trust older people, all that crap. Gradually I grew up and actually got happier in life as common sense prevailed and real life experiences evolved into wisdom. Is Mudcat the Sargasso Sea of old hippies? |
