Subject: BS: Mudcat Roll Call - Occassional Check-in
From: katlaughing
Date: 13 Sep 09 - 04:12 PM

Every once in a while one of us will think of someone who hasn't posted in a long or short while and we might start a thread asking if they are around. I thought of a couple this morning and decided maybe we ought to try having one thread where we can post if we are wondering about someone and/or anyone who comes back, is around and doesn't post much, etc. could post here to let us know they are okay.

So, the two I am wondering about are:

Llanfair - last I remember she was laid up with a broken leg;

Capri-Uni - I know she's out there, but I miss her and hope she will pop in.

Actually, I miss a lot of folks, but those two are on my mind, today.

Hmmm...I don't see either name listed in the members list I call up to send a PM.

Not sure if that addy works now or not. I don't think she has much time for it, anyway, though I don't really know. Last time I tried to hook up with her, her son answered and it sounded a bit chaotic. She wasn't there, so I left a message which I think got a bit garbled...you know a voice out of the blue...It's Kat from Mudcat...might as well say I'm Agent 99, as confusing as the other sounds to non-members.:-)

Hey, Kat... I must've got your vibes, 'cause the thought popped into my head today:

"Gee, I wonder if my Mudcat Cookie has expired or not..."

What I've been up to:

In August, I took part in a community on LiveJournal, where folks make a new piece of art every day for the month...

I also got it in my head to refresh my knowledge of American Sign Language; I first learned Signed Exact English (SEE) as a kid, and eventually took two freshmen-level semesters of the real, actual language when I was at university. But I've had no one with whom to practice in the 18 years since. So I'm automathing on the Internet, these days...

Kewl, CU! Great to *see* you here. Any pix of your art projects online? I remember when my sister had the lead in the Miracle Worker, she had us all learning sign language so that she could practice. Supper time was quite interesting. I think I can barely remember the first few letters of the alphabet.

Sure, Kat -- here is my 2009 National Art-Making Month Gallery.

IIRC (and I may not) the "signs" in The Miracle Worker are limited to the manual alphabet. In the actual language ASL, the manual alphabet is used for about 15% of the total sign vocabulary -- mostly used for the spelling of proper names and titles, but occasionally, letter handshapes are incorporated into a sign (such as using the "U" handshape for "uncle" and the "a" handshape for "aunt").

So using the alphabet for entire conversations would kind of be like chatting in Morse Code ;-)

(It's useful for the deaf-blind, though, because each letter can fit into the palm of the recipient's hand).

Many people, myself included, will I feel sure have left because the place seemed to have been taken over by prats starting really tedious threads in the music section, and the loonie left anti-fascist brigade spitting vitriol at the BNP in the BS (both groups being as bad as each other to most right-minded people).
I could name the most guilty but don't think I need to - they name themselves very clearly.

Two prime examples of prattish retorts:

1) "anti-fascist brigade spitting vitriol at the BNP"
And this is a bad thing??? from Bobad

Try and read the whole sentence next time Bobad, you know it makes sense.

2) "So if you've left, giovanni, how did you manage to post that?"
from McGrath (who really should know better - you let yourself down Kevin)

That would be "left membership" and occasionally looks back in to see if things have improved - ah, I see they haven't. See you all next year then.

I don't think you can actually "leave membership". "giovanni" still shows up as a member.   Of course any member can stop coming around, and onvisits can disable the cookie ster and ciome in as a guest, but they are still members.

quote "I don't think you can actually "leave membership". "giovanni" still shows up as a member"

In which case, apologies to the member giovanni, I was never him.

I'm a totally different ex-member who just thinks the place has been taken over by prats and regrets the loss of what was a great community. Maybe The Shambles was a boring sod, Clinton a wanker, and Martin Gibson didn't know when to stop taking the piss, but even they were more fun than some of the twats you're all having to put up with these days.

And it seems a shame that some really quality people - maybe even yourself included - seem to be getting dragged into the mire by the company you keep.

Back in the early years of Mudcat, there were some "regulars" who really knew a lot about folk music, and I wonder what happened to them. Abby Sale isn't around much any more, but he does look in.
I haven't seen RichR or Tim Jaques in years, the guy named Bill who always used to sign things with, "Allinkausay, Bill."

Then there's Shula and Rechal and Sheye and Cuilinonn (sp?). I wonder how they are.

And yes, I have heard that some respectable folk song researchers are reluctant to associate their names with the nastiness that goes on at Mudcat. I wish I knew how to resolve that, and still maintain an atmosphere of free expression.

Thanks for the info on Mudlark, Amos. Please say "Hi!" and let her know she is missed!

I've been wondering for quite a while where Pene Azul went.

I really miss "Old Blue."

Hope you're still out there and well, Pene.

Genie, Pene is still in contact with Max. He had a lot of 3D life take him up a few years ago and he went with it. Last time Max mentioned he was doing very well, quite happy and busy.

Glad to hear Pene is alive and well. I knew he was kind of bowing out for a while, but it's been quite a long while.   
Pene, I wish you'd drop in to say hi once in a while.

Kinda the same thing, Kendall. His 3D life got busy and happy and so he's just out there, at least, last I knew. I see someone by his real name on facebook. It looks like him. If you'd like I'll send you the info by PM.

I have some sad news. I found Metchosin's email addy the other day, so sent her a quick note. I knew she had been ill, fighting a rare type of leukemia which seemed slow-acting. I just received the following from her husband:

Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but Susan passed away last October 16 after a year of battling her leukemia. She remained courageous and in strong spirits until the end. She was at home in the company of her dogs and myself and didn't have to experience the demoralizing experience of in home care that would have started the following day. I think she had simply had enough of it all and decided it was time.

Rest in Peace, Mets. You are loved and missed.

geeziz.....................Mets I am so sorry we didn't know. We should have suspected perhaps but sometimes folks just leave here for even a year or two...............

Mets..........She was around for some of the best of times here and always a part of the action---AND---She was very strong musically!

kat, I dunno' about a thread at this late date but I also don't know why not. You might ask her husband if he'd mind a few private messages from some of us as an alternative.


And does anyone know anything about "Lyrical Lady"........Barb hasn't posted in about the same amount of time either........

I was wondering where I might be these days. I use to post on Mudcat all the time, joined in the chatroom and contributed my $.02 on numerous subjects whether I knew what I was talking about or not. I realized after reading this thread that I just haven't seen many of my posts lately.

So sorry to hear about Susan - we have lovely memories of an evening with her and Jim in Victoria a few years ago. She told us of her diagnosis then, but I hoped that no news was good news.

Cheers
Jennie
