Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Charley Noble Date: 22 Jun 04 - 08:11 PM I can hardly wait til you review the activities at the Press Room shanty sing in Portsmouth, NH. Especially the part where you were swinging from the chandeler singing about a lady called Hairy Mary! Cheerily, Charley Noble |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 22 Jun 04 - 10:51 PM Sorry, Dani, my first post was a bit wordy. You have to scroll past it to see the most recent posts. Then you need to click on the Read More to see the rest. Here is a link to the most recent post. BTW, so far as I know, you don't need to obtain a membership to view the site. In fact, you can even post a comment, if you want; but you will appear as "Anonymous" unless you are registered. My daughter, Kelly, is the webmaster and so I think you can be assured that your info won't be sent to every spammer in the country. I've sent the first batches of photos to Kelly and imagine she will find a way to post them soon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 25 Jun 04 - 10:21 AM allan left for Old Songs this AM. Not sure where he goes from there - Tinker's? Annanmill's? |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Tinker Date: 25 Jun 04 - 01:57 PM I'm hoping to meet up with Allan on Sunday at Old Songs and he'll head this way on Monday. Now the floor guy finally found time to rip out my kitchen floor on Tuesday and everything is a bit topsy turvy, but luckily Allan brings his own accomodations.... It's not like he hasn't heard before that I live in chaos... tinker |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: annamill Date: 28 Jun 04 - 07:56 PM Hi. Allan will be coming to my place Thursday evening and staying indefinitly or at least until 7/6/04. We will be having a gathering. Please see the thread about this called Gathering/Annamills w/Allan 7/3 to 7/5. Love, Annamill |

Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,MMario Date: 01 Jul 04 - 02:18 PM nice update on his site from Allan re: Old Songs and time with Tinker |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 16 Jul 04 - 10:22 AM I've just submitted another update. It should be posted in another day or so. I'm having more fun than one person's normal allotment and it keeps getting better! |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 16 Jul 04 - 11:33 AM And you're sharing the joy. The books arrived. Thank you! I will bring them to the Getaway for Show And Tell. SINS |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Rex Date: 16 Jul 04 - 12:06 PM Yes indeed, I must check into the mudcat more often. Allan, please consider a journey through the Denver area. There are some nice folks at an irish pub I would like you to meet. Rex |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,MMario Date: 19 Jul 04 - 10:32 AM wow - quite an update at that! I don't know what is more fun - reading about places he goes that I know - or those I don't!!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 20 Jul 04 - 04:12 PM A couple of new postings have been submitted. One is already up and the other might be there in a day or two. We are still working on solutions regarding the photos. I'm dying to share them with you! |

Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 15 Aug 04 - 05:11 PM Just got a phone message from Allan. He is somewhere in the wilds of Virginia for a Marine Reunion???? I thought he was in the Air Force. Anyway, he says it will be a week or two before he can get on line. So - he is alive and well and will check in when he can. SINS |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 16 Aug 04 - 05:03 PM Refresh - for anyone wondering what happened to Allan. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,MMario Date: 27 Aug 04 - 11:23 AM wondering.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Stilly River Sage Date: 27 Aug 04 - 11:45 AM He hasn't posted to his web journal for a while. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: CarolC Date: 27 Aug 04 - 01:32 PM I talked with him on the phone yesterday. He's still in Virginia and may be there for a while. We got cut off and couldn't reestablish the connection, so I don't know much more than that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 31 Aug 04 - 04:09 PM I am, indeed, back in Virginia and I have been able, at last, to submit an update to the blog. That should help to fill in some of the more recent blanks. I just now hit the Submit button and so it might take a day or so before my posting appears. Check back tomorrow, maybe. Also, there is a short clip starring Mudcat's own Wesley S. now available in the Download section. There is now a concerted effort being made toward getting my many photos up for viewing. I appreciate your patience and hope that the waiting and my own exhasperation will soon be at an end. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,MMario Date: 31 Aug 04 - 04:18 PM woo-hoo! Video! |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Stilly River Sage Date: 31 Aug 04 - 04:55 PM I hope you don't get blown away there in VA! |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,MMario Date: 02 Sep 04 - 11:27 AM his latest is up! |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST Date: 13 Sep 04 - 09:52 PM Allan called me yesterday...Sept 12. We had a nice but quick visit because I was on my way to a gig. He is still in VA. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Sorcha Date: 14 Sep 04 - 12:00 AM Dammit, that Guest was me and I was logged in. This is weird. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 27 Sep 04 - 11:42 PM There's a new entry on the blog. What it doesn't say is that the reason I was suddenly called to the home of Mudcatter, BarbaraLynn, is because her husband, Casey, was to be undergoing surgery for the removal of a carcinoid tumor from where his esophogus joins his stomach. The surgery went well and Casey is recovering quickly, albeit painfully. He remains in the intensive care unit at present. Tomorrow evening we will be told the definitive results of the pathology report as to whether the tumor was indeed a true cancer. Whatever the result may be, I am certain that your thoughts and prayers will be much appreciated and will be of comfort to both Barbara and Casey. Thanks |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 28 Sep 04 - 10:27 PM Update: Thanks to your good thoughts and to many other factors, the pathology report today was almost as good as anyone might have expected. Yes, the tumor was malignant; but virtually all of it was successfully removed surgically. The tiny portions that could not be extracted are such that chemotherapy is almost certain to negate. Casey was tested today for leaks in the site of the reattachment of his esophogus and although a tiny leak was detected, it is expected that it will self-heal without further intervention. Thanks from Casey, BarbaraLynn and me. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: katlaughing Date: 29 Sep 04 - 01:00 AM Very glad to hear that, Allan. Thanks for letting us know. I did pass on the request.:-) luvyakat |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 29 Sep 04 - 12:59 PM Good news or at least as good as could be expected. I am declaring 2004 the last year that any Mudcatters are allowed a serious illness or catastrophe. If you have to get cancer or heart disease, earth quakes or hurricanes or whatever, you have until December 31st to get it out of the way. 2005 will be the Year Of The Healthy 'Catter. So it is written; so it will be. Dammit. I am tired of bad news. SINS PS By the way, Allan did Hurricane Jeanne pass you by without damage? |

Subject: Pictures at last!!! From: Allan C. Date: 18 Nov 04 - 10:27 AM Because it seems that it will be forever before I can get my photos onto the blog website, I have finally caved in and decided to post my photos to a place where you can see them now. Although they will not be in any particular order, I think most of you can sort them out. Have a look here. P.S. Thanks to JacktheSailor for giving me a hand with this. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 18 Nov 04 - 12:57 PM Hi Allan. Got your message. One of these days I will be home when you call. Winter is setting in - got our first taste of snow. So I know I won't see you before the spring and maybe not until the Getaway. Stay warm and safe and among friends. SINS |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: GUEST,harp Date: 19 Nov 04 - 10:49 AM I guess I don't get to see allan C on his return loop thru the south either ...sigh... |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: CarolC Date: 21 Nov 04 - 09:12 PM Allan left here at about 9:00 yesterday (Saturday) morning, headed for Texas for Thanksgiving. We had a lovely visit and we were really glad we got to see him at least once more during his on-the-road adventure. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: SINSULL Date: 21 Nov 04 - 09:24 PM He called tonight from Texas. All is well. He is visiting daughter Kelly. Thanksgiving dinner was vague but he has plans for Christmas. Never a dull moment with Allan. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Dani Date: 22 Nov 04 - 08:22 AM Dear Allan! Thanks so much for the pictures. It's fun to visit with you all vicariously! Dani |
Subject: New update to the blog From: Allan C. Date: 24 Nov 04 - 11:09 AM I've finally posted an update to the blog that nearly brings it up to the current date. I'll definitely catch it up completely sometime shortly after Turkey Day. Kelly has finally sorted out the problems she was having with the photos and now has a few (from the earlier part of the journey) available on the blog site. I'll post the rest sometime soon and may even include some more sound bytes. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: annamill Date: 24 Nov 04 - 02:36 PM Have a wonderful holiday Allan! I cannot seem to find any more info in Meandering with Allan. It this the blog (what's a blog anyway?) you refering to? I enjoyed the pictures you posted. Have you seen Micca's thread? Love, Annamill |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Edelweiss Date: 27 Nov 04 - 10:41 AM Anna, "blog" is shorthand for "biographical log". You can read mine here. If you scroll down from the introductory message you can read the most recent post (clicking on the "more" to find the rest of it.) If you have lots of time on your hands, you can read the whole thing by starting with the bottom posting and working your way up to the most recent. I hope to have another update there soon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Edelweiss Date: 27 Nov 04 - 10:43 AM Woops, that last post was mine. Edelweiss is Carmen's Mudcat name and I am on her computer. Allan C. |

I couldn't be more delighted and what a wonderful way to end your journey...where it was clearly supposed to end, that is, with a new beginning. |

Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Wesley S Date: 29 Dec 04 - 04:53 PM Allan - Congratulations are in order. However - full disclosure is called for also. Has Carmen seen you without the beard ? |
Subject: RE: BS: Here comes Allan C./There he goes again! From: Allan C. Date: 31 Dec 04 - 12:10 AM We thank you all for your good wishes. Wesley, Carmen knew me 40 some years ago - somewhat before the beard became a part of me in the way it is now manifested. |
