Subject: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: catspaw49 Date: 19 May 01 - 03:14 PM Before we start a Permathread on the various ways you can help support Mudcat, I thought we would be better off to continue this "Pledge Drive" on a separate thread. The original thread is located HERE-"Will Mudcat Survive" Take a minute and read through it. SOME IMPORTANT POINTS FROM THE OTHER THREAD---You are not required in any way to pledge anything! There is no membership fee at the 'Cat and there never should be. Otherwise we would not serve our purpose and visitors wouldn't be asking for help...and often becoming members in the process. Membership is FREE! But Max supports this site out of his own pocket and though some of us kick in some money now and then, it doesn't cover the cost. As you can read in the other thread in Max's message, were Mudcat to stand alone, it would cost about $400.00 per month. Mudcat gets a percentage of everything sold at it's sponsor sites IF we use the "Support the Mudcat" logo to access them.....that's the catfish jumping out of the banjo at the top of the page...just click it. Sandy Paton at Folk Legacy and Dick Greenhaus at Camsco also participate. This all adds up but it should be the icing on the cake. To be sure the cake is here to ice, we need a guaranteed $400/month to Max. People need to understand, that while water itself is free, we still have to pay for the sanitation and the plumbing to put it into our taps. It is ludicrous that Max should have to bankrupt himself for an ideal that so many, many people are sharing in and deriving pleasure from. Time to ante up. Do you need to pledge? Of course not. However, if you can see your way clear to come up with One dollar a month........Three dollars a month........Five, Ten, Fifteen, or Twenty a month....PLEDGE THAT YOU WILL SEND THAT AMOUNT TO MUDCAT CENTRAL!!! You can pay monthly, quarterly,annually....JUST MAKE THE PLEDGE AND FOLLOW THROUGH!!!!! I have had a number of PM's from 'Catters saying they will pledge but don't want the dollar amount or perhaps their names made public.....That's just fine!!! for some of you, you may want to just post to this thread with $$$ signs only. The amount is between you and Max. JUST MAKE THE PLEDGE!!!!!!!! We're tired of the bi-monthly things to score a few bucks....I think we're all tired of that..........SO LET'S JUST DO IT!!!! Make a pledge of any amount per month (others already have....see the other thread)be it from One to Twenty per month....or even more if you actually have it. Let's just make this a one-time thing (until nest year) and we will all know the 'Cat will be available and free for all to use. So let's cough it up......get the gelt to Mudcat!!! Plus, you'll feel good for doing it! PLEDGING TO MUDCAT IS LIKE PISSING IN VELVET UNDERWEAR............YOU GET A WARM, FUZZY, FEELING!!! And now back to our big feature, "The Virtues of Blowing Up A Possum's Ass." Spaw

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: catspaw49 Date: 19 May 01 - 03:28 PM Some questions have come up regarding payment procedures from overseas or on-line accounts and the secure server. We'll work them all out and post the info and PM it als if needed. MAKE YOU PLEDGE AND WE"LL WORK IT OUT! If you're comfortable with giving a dollar figure, please do so and don't be embarassed at a dolla am month! It's all important!!! It all adds up. If not, just the $ will do. AT THIS POINT I FIGURE WITH THE PM'S AND ALL WE SHOULD BE UP TO $1800.00!!!!!!!! FAR OUT HUH???? Spaw |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 19 May 01 - 03:35 PM Well, geez, Spaw, I was gonna use that plumbing analogy from a generous anonymous Mudcatter who wants to keep it private, BUT ya beat me to it! Good thing though. Now, where do you send your checks/cheques?:
5 West Gay Street, Suite A West Chester, PA 19389 USA OR, Click on the fish jumping outta the banjo and scroll down for a link to the Secure Server. OR, Call Max at 610.738.9050
And, THANKS!! Now...watch this next program...you'll want to be sure to order your own video of....The Strange Case of the Albert Hansell, Steamship OR Spaceship?! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 19 May 01 - 03:47 PM To answer Jande's question about a Mudcat account to have direct deposits go in from our own online accounts. From my experience, one doesn't need a specific account at Mudcat to deposit to. If you look at my posting about online banking in the other thread, I explain how you can just go to your online banking service and put Mudcat in as a Payee, then set the amount and frequency of payments and your bank will automatically send out a check to Mudcat at those times your indicate, in the amount you tell them. You just have to remember to deduct it every month from your bank account!:-) Hope that helps, kat |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 19 May 01 - 03:55 PM Amergin just had a great suggestion...besides this pledging of consistent donations, we can also think about offering something, like PBS does, for certain amounts, i.e. a cap for $15, mug for $10...NOW, I realise we don't all have caps and mugs, BUT as individuals we do have other things, like CDS, etc. so....as another way to bring in more icing, let's think about this, too, without taking away from this BLAST FOR CASH at the moment. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: DougR Date: 19 May 01 - 04:08 PM I just want to add my 2 cents to what Spaw and kat have said. The amount you pledge or send in a lump sum is of no interest to anyone. If you agree that you derive a lot of pleasure, and learn a lot by usinging the Mudcat, you owe it to yourself to support it. This isn't a campaign started by Max. It was started by some members that responded to a thread that was posed, I believe (and forgive me if I'm wrong) by Lonesome E. J. He had heard Max utter an aside that because his business was not doing well, it might be difficult to keep the Mudcat going. All of the background is covered in that thread, and I won't repeat it here. The amount required to ensure Mudcat's continued existence is very modest when you think about it. We only have to raise $4,800 and if a majority of mudcatters respond, it won't require a burdensome donation on any one person's part. Pledge today, will you? Or send Max a check at the address listed in kat's posting above. Thanks! DougR |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: DougR Date: 19 May 01 - 04:15 PM One last comment: when we have reached our $4,800 goal, this thread can disappear (and all like it), and you won't see it again until this time next year! dougR |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: IvanB Date: 19 May 01 - 04:18 PM OK, sign me up for $10/month, payable quarterly. I've just asked for my online banking service to add Mudcat as a payee and will transmit my 1st quarter payment as soon as that happens (or will snail mail a check if there's any snafu). Thanks, Max for Mudcat and thanks to the pledge drive organizers for keeping this in front of us in a much less intrusive way than my local NPR station. And, 'Spaw, the 'permathread' thing to keep the support options in front of us is a great idea too. Although I was aware of the option to click on various sales sites through Mudcat (and have done so on numerous occasions) I was unaware of Bron's CD until now. It's be good to know of ways we can support Mudcat and feed our habit as well. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Lonesome EJ Date: 19 May 01 - 04:28 PM That's a good idea, Doug. Barring any unforeseen emergencies, maybe May 15 could be the annual pledge reminder date for the coming year. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: DougR Date: 19 May 01 - 05:19 PM Great, IvanB, thanks for helping! DougR |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: gnu Date: 19 May 01 - 05:48 PM Peaked caps. YEAH BABY !!!! All us bald guys need peaked caps. GOTTA HAVE ONE !!! I was going to order some Tshirts, but if baseball type caps are on the way, hold the phone !!! As well, if Max can somehow set it up, or one of the Canucks can, A.J.M. Headwear of Canada makes excellet hats. I use their hats for my company and get a local company to silk screen them. Perhaps one of the Canucks of good standing can offer them within Canada so we don't have to fiddle with all the extra charges, duty and BS ? I'm going to try to quiet down now, and go back to my usual, reserved self. It's not too good when gnus get excited, especially after imbibing too many brews while watching Team Canada trounce the Eagles 19 to 10 in the Pan-Ameriacn Rugby Championships. Paraguay is next ! I'm in for my pledge, a calendar ( even though I THINK it gets delivered as an email file which I have to print out on my crappy, six year old printer, right ? .. never really understood how it worked ) a tee shirt, and at least several caps - if we can work out this Canadian "contribution" to the effort. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Jande Date: 19 May 01 - 06:21 PM TO MORTICIA AND JANDE.........I WILL GET THE INFO YOU NEED AND HAVE MAX DIRECTLY POST IT ALSO!!! It may be a day or two, but we appreciate it......and you appreciate it as well........We're all in this one together. Thanks, SPAW! My partner and I are just figuring out what we can afford. We had planned to review our finances this weekend anyway, so this is good timing... ~ Jande

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 19 May 01 - 06:39 PM Down, Gnu, Down, boy'o! **BG** No hats, at this point. Just cash...yours and anyone else's! Good suggestions, but for later on, that icing on the cake Spaw mentioned awhile back. Please don't hesitate to get a calendar AND a T-shirt, AND Bron's CD....call Max, he can work it out with Canajun francs or whatever you have up thar!**BG** (We've talked hats before...but don't think we ever did them, so really, after we get the $4,800...I think it'd be neat if we could work on things like that, too.) LOVE THAT ENTHUSIASM!!! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Morticia Date: 19 May 01 - 07:04 PM I will also pledge our seedy,' Live at the Kitchen Table' , all proceeds to Max.....and I will pay postage....$10 0r £5.00, well worth it for the laugh, promise!! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: gnu Date: 19 May 01 - 07:16 PM So .... ignore my PM.... I can order this from Max when I send him my life savings ? |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: gnu Date: 19 May 01 - 07:23 PM OH... for the auction, right ? Think I'd better slow down on the brewskies and get ready for my session. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: SINSULL Date: 19 May 01 - 07:25 PM Dear Mudcat, Thank you! After watching your special "The Mating Habits Of Geriatric Folkies", I made an appointment with my doctor, joined a health club, and began a Guinness free diet. I have already lost 5# and most of the more embarrassing side effects of the Guinness. Please accept my monthly pledge ($$$) as a token of my gratitude. SINSULL soon to be svelte. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: GUEST,lloyd62 Date: 19 May 01 - 08:00 PM Wow is me, I lost my cookie AGAIN. O well, it's nice being a guest for such a great group of people. I never feel as I have much to say, but it is fun polking around in the background. I wonder how many of us are out there? Lets see how many guests pledge. Come on guests, it is time to step forward and be counted. lloyd62 |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Allan C. Date: 19 May 01 - 08:02 PM It is svelte of you to have made such a pledge, SINSULL. (Sorry, I just couldn't help myself.) Anyhow, I hereby publicly commend you for your having shed the five pounds. I will sweeten your weight loss by pledging to pay the Mudcat a lump sum of a minimum of $5.00 for every pound you lose between now and December 31st of this year. I reserve the right to increase the amount as circumstances allow; but promise to not decrease it. Folks, for the price of a single Guinness out of your monthly allotment, you could be of immense help to the Mudcat. Please give what you can. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: SINSULL Date: 19 May 01 - 08:30 PM Allan! You are evil! Do you really expect to admit to being more than five pounds overweight????? I will get you for this. If Ghandi could do it, so can I. Hunger strike! Until the $4800 is found. Or until I lose 900 pounds in which case Allan pays! |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Allan C. Date: 19 May 01 - 08:35 PM Well, if you only need to lose 14 pounds, I may have to multiply by a higher dollar amount. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Uncle Jaque Date: 19 May 01 - 09:53 PM Soooo.... Does the velvet underwear come with the Mudcat logo emblazoned on the fanny? And does this have anything to do with Sinsull's "embarrassing effects of Guinness"? Is this a realm into which we need not go? OK...
Now look what you guys have done; I've become virtually addicted to this vast expanse of silliness, and may actually have to shell out for another "fix"! As a burned-out, part time lanternmaker at 8 bucks an hour (non-Union, obviously) I won't be a major factor... but I'll do what I can. Jeeez; keep it up, guys! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: kendall Date: 19 May 01 - 09:53 PM It's a little early, but, my annual donation will be in the mail tomorrow. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Mudlark Date: 19 May 01 - 10:16 PM Hahahaha....the check is in the mail. No, really, the check IS in the mail. Mudlark |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: catspaw49 Date: 19 May 01 - 10:16 PM (Spaw steps in as the guests leave the stage) Well ther you go gang.....you want PROOF that this IS a community and one well worth supporting? Let's thank Uncle Jaque and Kendall!!!!! (APPLAUSE) An unlikely duo if I ever saw one!!! A real imprompt two! Well, folk music and Mudcay make strange bedfellows........ (APPLAUSE) And let's hear it for another fine pair of "unattached" 'Catters......Our very own Allan and the soon to be VERY svelte Sinsull!!! Thanks for all of your pledges!!! Best guess now is that we're at about $2200.00 of actual pledged bucks PLUS all of the auction and Cd's and all of the other good stuff!! But I think we really are going strong towards keeping the cake and increasing the amount of icing too!!!! LET"S HEAR FROM SOME MORE OF YOU!!! So let's get on with our next program special, "Flatulence and the Art of Being Spaw" Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Uncle Jaque Date: 19 May 01 - 10:26 PM OK, folks; I will reluctantly own up to actually LIKING that salty old coot, Kendall... although there are times when I have to wonder "Why??!?"... But "bedfellows"?? WhOOOOoooah!!!! SteadeEEEEeeey, Mates!!! We ain't all THAT close! PuhlEEEEEze!!! |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 19 May 01 - 10:45 PM That is quite an incentive there, Allan. Sins...good going!!

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Gypsy Date: 19 May 01 - 11:02 PM Me too, me too! Just let me finish my pledge to our local Public Radio station, then it will be Mudcats turn. i get paid bimonthly, so that is how i will donate. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: CarolC Date: 20 May 01 - 01:20 AM I was sending Max five dollars a month until this past December. Then my life got a little crazy and I spaced out on it. I have just sent off $30.00 to bring myself up to date, and I will continue to send $5.00 a month after this. Carol |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 20 May 01 - 09:28 AM That's what happened with me, too, Carol. I think December just took a bite out of my stuffing or budget or something.:-) Good for you and you, too, Gypsy! Well, here we are in our second day of fundraising and at last total we'd reached our half-way mark, as far as I remember. It being Sunday morning and all, we might find things slowed down a bit, but we are expecting an upsurge when the UK bunch get back form Yorkshire, is it? Also, when the Paltalk crew get going. Just think, we could wrap this up by tonight, have a complete year's worth of operating expenses covered by the end of today and make the Mudcat secure in our lives for that whole year! You've all been doing a fantastic and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you, but especially those who've ben pitching in here at Pledge Drive Central answering PM's, sending out notes, refreshing the threads and generally pausing for the cause. Ya'll are just wonderful and we salute you with a
GREAT BIG THANK YOU!!!And, now back to Singing With the Angels, Led by our own WYSIWYG

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: SINSULL Date: 20 May 01 - 11:34 AM Been off it "cold turkey" for two weeks. My bones may love it but the rest of the world is dealing with my bitchiness and caffeine headaches. This too will pass. Minimum 6 Pepsis (12 oz cans) per day to nothing. Pray for me Kat! |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Uncle Jaque Date: 20 May 01 - 11:40 AM To whom/what should the check be made out to? Is the ZIP code 19389 (niner) or 0 (Zero)? - I see it both ways here. |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 20 May 01 - 11:47 AM Aw, Sins, that's the spirit, put off the evils of thy demanding flesh womon and be PUR-EE-FIED!! That's it, Sister Sins, you can experience the Great and Powerful Effects of the Rarified and Holy Water of the Mudcat Aquifer just down from the NYCFTTS. Why it is THE purest, the cleanest, the closest thing to the Nectar of the Gawds that we could ever hope to attain here, on this Blighted Earth of Fleshly Pleasures. The Dark reaches of the Arches of Gold, the Kings of Your Way, those bastions of Buns of Ses-a-mee have NOTHING, I say NOTHING to offer you compared to the HOLY WATER OF THE MUDCAT AQUIFER. So lay down your putrid browns of colas, your sizzling snort up your nose pops, whether clear or dark....your bones will be FREE and you can LIVE AGAIN through the POWER and WONDER of the Mudcat Aquifer's HOLY WATER!! And, let you say to those who claim you are bitchie, to those headaches of Sinsfull need, BEGONE! GET THEE BEHIND ME!! For today I am FREE and forever shall be!! Amen, Amen, Amen! **If all else fails, just tell everyone you are going to be a hermit for a week or two; draw the blinds; put on some soothing music and sweat it out! **BG**

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: SINSULL Date: 20 May 01 - 11:49 AM Kat - I gave up Pepsi, not sex. Calm down, girl. |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 20 May 01 - 11:50 AM Uncle Jaque, it's a niner and the check should be made out to the Mudcat Cafe, as far as I know. If you click on the fish jumping out of the banjo, up top, and scroll down to Max's message, it should say for sure, but that's what I always make mine out to and so far they've been cashed!:-) THANKS! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 20 May 01 - 12:06 PM Well...it's addictive, ya know? I am convinced that MickeyD's puts some addictive substance in some of their foods, just like the tobacco companies! Just trying ta help with those bond of addiction, plus it IS Sunday!**BG** NOI!! |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: catspaw49 Date: 20 May 01 - 12:13 PM GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY!!!!!! SINSULL GIVES UP PEPSI FOR MUDCAT!!!!!!! Way to go girl........and the'Cat is purring and burping it's thanks!!! Right now I have our crack team of auditors from the the firm of Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe working on the updated figures and we'll be giving you an update within the hour!!! We have so many kicking in for CD's and the auction and supporting the Mudcat in many ways that this Pledge Drive is doing MULTIPLE duty!!! LET'S KEEP THE $$$$ PLEDGES COMING GANG.......CAN YOU IMAGINE MAX WHEN HE RETURNS THE FIRST OF THE WEEK??? Once again, it was NOT Max who started this idea or even asked about such a thing. Mudcat has become an integral and important part of his life and he will keep it going even if there were none of this going on. But Mudcat has become an integral part of many of our lives too and the things we have learned, shared, and taught each other and the emotions of both sorrow and laughter have made this community far from virtual and instead, a very real place. We too have a vested interest in the continuing health of the Mudcat Cafe. Some have given large amounts, some small, some in-between and it doesn't matter where you fall in that or the amount of your pledge. What is important is to keep the access to and the membership in the Mudcat Cafe FREE!!! It is a great musical resource and a fine collection of friends.......mostly screwballs, but what do you expect???
LET'S MAKE THE GOAL NOW !!!!Spaw |

Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: Roger in Sheffield Date: 20 May 01 - 12:14 PM .........how much to stop Spaw posting links to pictures off peoples opened up chests? |
|
Subject: RE: MUDCAT PLEDGE DRIVE-Will Mudcat Survive2 From: katlaughing Date: 20 May 01 - 12:16 PM I love it. Rog thinks I should write an article about our Pledge Drive to "save our dotcom". He thinks we are on the cutting edge of what could become a trend! Hey, Spaw, you and me could make some bucks! Farming our services out...course it might not work as well if'n we didn't believe in the cause and have that community thing going, huh? Oh well, back to busking or somethin'...:-) |
