Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Tim theTwangler Date: 13 May 07 - 08:49 AM Well I think it was a poodle that reminded ceff Jakeman of one he may have seen when he was a kid............. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Waddon Pete Date: 13 May 07 - 08:43 AM Hello Tim, What variety of poodle? Traditional or contemporary? Best wishes, Peter |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Tim theTwangler Date: 13 May 07 - 05:33 AM Hey it was raining cats and dogs here last night. I know because I just went outside and puss my foot in a poodle. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 13 May 07 - 04:17 AM We too, in the UK, have had the experience of rain again. The country as a whole has had only 14% of it's normal April rainfall, only 2% has fallen on London. People don't believe me when I tell them we've had next to no rain since the middle of March. Of course, May Bank holiday saw the official start of Summer so now it's poured down every day! I was watching the news last night (something I rarely do) for news of the Florida fires, not a mention. Even on Sky/CBS news which puts it into 2 categories, USA and RestofWorld, there was not a word. If you want, I can reopen the Extreme Weather Tavern we had a month back.... come in and wet yer whistles on Bert. LTS |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: GUEST,harpgirl Date: 12 May 07 - 06:08 PM Hallelujah! RAIN!!!!! |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Waddon Pete Date: 12 May 07 - 04:52 PM Sounds fishy..I agree! And then.... ...just when things are getting interesting some expert comes along with facts...we don't need facts! Conjecture, gossip, urban myths and their companions are meat and drink to us! It's raining cats and dogs here and there are poodles all over the ground! Best wishes, Peter |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Georgiansilver Date: 12 May 07 - 11:27 AM This thread has been interesting...It was initially very fresh but became a little stormy and since then has been up and down with thunder and enlightening. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 12 May 07 - 10:18 AM January brings the snow, Makes our feet and fingers glow. February brings the rain, Thaws the frozen lake again. March brings breezes sharp and shrill, Shakes the dancing daffodil. April brings the primrose sweet, Scatters daisies at our feet. May brings flocks of pretty lambs, Skipping by their fleecy dams. June brings tulips, lillies, roses, Fills the children's hands with posies. Hot July brings cooling showers, Apricots and gillyflowers. August brings the sheaves of corn, Then the harvest home is borne. Warm September brings the fruit, Sportsmen then begin to shoot. Brown October brings the pheasant, Then to gather nuts is pleasant. Dull November brings the blast, Then the leaves go whirling past. Chill December brings the sleet, Blazing fire and Christmas treat. But I think Flanders and Swann had a better idea of the weather.... January brings the snow, Makes our feet and fingers glow. February's ice and sleet Freeze the toes tight off your feet. Welcome March with wintry wind Would thou wert not so unkind! April brings the sweet spring showers, On and on for hours and hours. Farmers fear unkindly May Frost by night and hail by day. June just rains and never stops Thirty days and spoils the crops. In July the sun is hot. Is it shining? No, it's not. August, cold and dank and wet, Brings more rain than any yet. Bleak September's mist and mud Is enough to chill the blood. Then October adds a gale, Wind and slush and rain and hail. Dark November brings the fog Should not do it to a dog. Freezing wet December, then Bloody January again! January brings the snow ... "I hope that's been helpful to those of you planning your holidays. Now they're very useful, travel tips. Despite all you may have heard to the contrary, the rain in Spain stays almost invariably in the hills. Oh dear, what a weather this is. Still, it was very nice yesterday, wasn't it? Spring, I enjoyed that. Missed it last year, I was in the bathroom." LTS |

Subject: Lyr Add: LITTLE WEATHERMAN (parody of BEGGARMAN) From: Don(Wyziwyg)T Date: 11 May 07 - 08:01 PM THE LITTLE WEATHERMAN Tune "The Little Beggarman" (Irish Trad.) I am a little weatherman, you'll see me on TV, I stand upon a box because I'm only five foot three, I smile into the camera, to communicate to you, That I really know me job, and every word I say is true, Of all the trades that's going, meteorology's the one, With the greatest chance of failure, ah! But that is half the fun, It really doesn't matter if I cock it up you see, For, when I'm on you're all out in the kitchen making tea. Oh! The mysteries of forecasting are really quite obscure, But the use of Doppler radar makes prediction very sure, I forecast dry and sunny, over twenty three degrees, And it rains so hard the water level's well above your knees, Take a tip, take the day off, take the car, get out of town, Pay a visit to the seaside, and you're sure to come back brown, You may boast about your suntan, if you really feel you must, But, unless they're blind or stupid, they will realise it's rust. I stood upon me little box, one dark and stormy night, And I told ten million viewers "There's no hurricane in sight", Next morning, scattered far and wide were fifteen million trees, I must be the country's worst case of the foot in mouth disease, And since that day I've tried right hard, to cover my backside, I predict the worst scenario, whatever might betide, For repeating that fiasco is the last thing I would wish, So TOMORROW WILL BE ROTTEN, and goodnight from Michael Fish. © Don Thompson April 1996 Don T. |

This seems to ASS-U-ME that you would be victimized by the Mudcat 'staff'" I am so unimportant and obscure that to be victimized at all by anyone would be appreciated as proof of my existence. whump bang hit "See the violence inherit in the system?"

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 11 May 07 - 09:48 AM You have already entered a pasword Donuel - it is refered to by the cookie on your PC, so you can post as a member. "Its happened to me at least a dozen times on other forums." Why would this happen here? This seems to ASS-U-ME that you would be victimized by the Mudcat 'staff'. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: beardedbruce Date: 11 May 07 - 09:48 AM (full poem) Fire and Ice Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice. -- Robert Frost |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: GUEST,harpgirl Date: 11 May 07 - 09:44 AM Weather may be safe to talk about... but Tallahassee is completely engulfed by a fine yellow/blue/gray haze and my eyes are burning and my throat is irritated. Old people have to stay indoors. It is awful and so dry...eleven inches of rain below the year need already. About 200 fires in Florida and The Okefenokee Swamp is now the Okefenokee Barbecue. The Florida Folk Festival will have a fine coating of ash like it did in '02 when Offer was there... But hey,,,it could be worse. Hurricane season starts in three weeks!

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Donuel Date: 11 May 07 - 09:30 AM If I had to enter a password, that would mean I could no longer post. big whoop. Its happened to me at least a dozen times on other forums. If I tried to recover my password since my email changed whey would say no such account exists and if I tried to register they claim my IP address or user name is already taken. Its a perfect catch 22. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: JennyO Date: 11 May 07 - 09:30 AM Didn't realise you were a fan, JennyO! Oh yeah - all that silly stuff, and of course Weebl and Bob - but then you might have noticed that. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 11 May 07 - 09:18 AM Gone again ! Whoosh! Looks like the same attacker of the help area has now redirected the robot to post as a GUEST to the main forum. One suggested possible way to keep the troublesome GUESTS out permanently is to insist on total membership then - and for those who cannot keep a cookie on their PC - they will just have to put in their password for each post. Just a theoretical suggestion, Max - but then I don't know just how much work rewriting that will involve. No topic here now is apparently safe... |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 11 May 07 - 09:10 AM Woops! Mr Fish is back (for the moment!) - now i suppose I'll have to type out the words.... |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Donuel Date: 11 May 07 - 09:06 AM If fire is weather, now the Georgia fire has linked up with the Florida fire and has burned over 1,000 sq. miles. America's largest city park, Griffiths Park has burned down sparing only 3 landmark buildings. Catalina Island is on fire and all 4,000+ people have been evacuated. Fire season starts later in the summer. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 11 May 07 - 01:53 AM The REALLY BAD STUFF nearly always starts down "south of the border" So Spaw is vacationing in Mexico City is he? We're getting our first decent rain for over a month now... and people are moaning! I'm not... my garden has suddenly turned green again! Lots of little scuddy clouds today - Ireland's empties. LTS |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Peace Date: 10 May 07 - 08:50 PM Sounds good. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: BuckMulligan Date: 10 May 07 - 08:42 PM I guess I misinterpreted your "history's fucked up" remark as well. Let's call the whole exchange a wash and start over. |
|
Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Peace Date: 10 May 07 - 08:29 PM Yeah. So did I. "uh.... Peace, it was a joke, not a fucking history lesson. Knights of "Columbus" etc? Can you say "Eye-Ron-EE?" First, try a little free association from "Knights Templar" to "Knights of Columbus." Then stretch the "Columbus" to free-associate with the Arawaks; there yet? Good. Can you extend yourself just a tad and understand that perhaps the comment was intended to satirize a certain mentality that makes connections in ignorance then gets all passionate about them? Good, I thought you could. My history is not fucked up; ees a joke, mon. Apparently there's mpore than one around here incapable of perceiving such." If I misinterpreted this post, then you have my apology. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: BuckMulligan Date: 10 May 07 - 08:17 PM Peace - "dipshit?" I'm having a problem here, please walk me through the humor here. I thought this was a jocular, lighthearted thread. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: Tim theTwangler Date: 10 May 07 - 06:39 PM Goodnight freaky weather fans. Top tip of the night If the damp makes your bones ache Moving to New Orleans is probably not the best idea you ever had. |

Subject: RE: Weather-a safe topic for mudcat? From: JohnInKansas Date: 10 May 07 - 06:24 PM Has Canada been blamed for the world's bad weather yet? Actually, a folk tradition has always been that Nebraska is responsible for the northward drift of bad weather into Kansas. Perhaps you've hit on a better answer, that it's not Nebraska, but that Somehow though, I doubt that our extremely talented and capable weather persons will find that a credible explanation. John |
