Chongo has asked me to post this. It's his idea. Here's how he put it:

"Okay, so I seen that thing about the women's meditation group, and I think it's a real good idea...but what about us MEN? We should have a reason to get together on a regular basis too and do some quality time bondin' over the things that guys can relate to...like booze, broads, bills that ain't gettin' paid on time, where to buy firearms, where to get yer car fixed cheap, how to dispose of a stiff without attractin' too much unnecessary attention, that sorta thing. Just gettin' together once a week and sharin' our thoughts and feelings would do all us guys a world of good."

"So I figure we oughta pick some time on Sunday afternoon that works good for everyone...or would that not work because of football? Well, there has gotta be a good time on Saturday or Sunday when the workin' stiffs are home from the trenches. Let's talk about it."

"Me, I'm good fer any day cos of how I'm self-employed and all, but it ain't that way for everyone. Anyways, we gotta pick a day and a time that works. I can't think of nothin' better than to kick back with a beer or some whisky in one hand, a cigar in the other, and a disassembled sidearm spread out on the desk in fronta the computer, and just let loose with all my male feelings and all the other stuff that's on my mind in the comfortin' presence of other MEN who understand what I'm goin' through, cos they hafta go through it too."

"One thing that really calms me down is to beat on jungle drums and hoot and holler for awhile, so we could get a drummin' circle happenin' too and do it live on the Net. Then we could have testimonials and stuff."

"So let's hear some feedback, run this thing up the flagpole, see who salutes, and get this show on the road."

First of all, Chongo would not be eligible for a men's group. As a male chimpanzee he is not a man, but a buck or some other such word.


But LH, you would probably pass the physical. And if Mudcat men fail to rally around, you could always join the Movement: I recommend The Mankind Project. I bet you would get a lot out of it. But they wouldn't admit Chongo unless you insisted he was your Spirit Animal, which may not be too far off...give it a try!!


Aho!!

Wow. Looks like heaven, doesn't it Amos? Chongo got really excited when he saw that website, he started leaping up and down and hooting (sometimes the forest chimp in him just takes over), and he's getting in touch with them ASAP. If it doesn't work out for Chongo, though, I'll do like you say and bring him along as my "Spirit Animal" or bodyguard or something along that line.

I thought joint bonding is what Morticia needs but doesn't seem to be having very good luck with.

That, or learning the proper way to 'roll your own, in case our memories have slipped a bit since the late '60's.

Or a marathon of watching old 007 flicks. Whatever happens, I'm looking to be stirred by it all, not shaken.

I finally got to retire from the Postal service at the end of October, and other than licking the odd envelope and taping a few Xmas gift packages shut, Mail Bonding, after 30-some years, is pretty much a thing of the past.

A Drum Circle, given my limited range of motion in my left arm and shoulder from my burn accident, would only exaggerate my already faulty Sense Of Rhythm and would make me physically feel afterwards like I'd had a therapy session with Captain Bligh rather than Robert Bly. I'd be better off sitting on my porcelain covered Iron John or spending the night with Nellie Bly.

As for brooding, we'd need a few women to create a brood for both sexes raise jointly and bond over. Breeding begets brooding, I guess, in several senses.

So I'll check back later and see what you've all brood up jointly and jauntily.....

The Mudcat Curse!

At last count there are now three members who are in relative pain free good health. The rest have either been hit by lightning, burnt like well done bacon, skewered like a shishkabob, fighting various: cancers, strokes, falls, pnumonias, cardio functionitis, alien abductions, shistosomiesis (from tainted Chimp poop) and near lethal bouts of halitosis adromodosis, fligel nipple, Postman's tongue and plumbers bowel.

Is this a mere coincidence or is a sinister invisible hand involved?

A few years back I did Bill Gallaher's wonderful song at The Getaway, entitled The Male Bonding Song, the lyrics to which I proudly reproduce below. This is now a music thread, ***chuckle***:

MALE BONDING SONG
(Words & Music by Bill Gallaher © 1995 From The Last Battle CD BGM 1002)

When we learned, it was a shocking re-ve-lation      
That somehow as men we simply hadn't grown So we looked at all you women, and your pride in feminism,         
And we started up a movement of our own.
Now we are men, and proud to be men;
We meet every Sa-tur-day at three;
And we ex-plore with great per-sis-tence,
Our mas-cu-line existence,            
Beat our drums, and run off naked through the trees.

Chorus:
Oh we all go running naked through the trees,
As naked as a jaybird, if you please.
Oh we throw off all our wrappings, and with private parts a flapping,
We all go running naked through the trees!

Yes, every weekend we all meet deep in the forest,
Where we beat our drums and fashion spears from trees;
And with our faces painted, we all get re-acquainted
With our atavistic masculinity.
For we are men and proud to be men,
We meet every Saturday at three;
And we flaunt with great pretension
Those long penile extensions,
As we all go running naked through the trees... Chorus

I guess we spent too long pretending we were something we were not,
While we hid our inner turmoil and our strife;
You thought we had a bed of roses though we stood with runny noses,
Pressed up hard against the window pane of life.
Now we are men and damn proud to be men,
We meet every Saturday at three;
And if you think it's just depravity,
You don't know what it's like to be,
A man gone running naked through the trees (It hurts!)...Chorus

RED Green is alive and well. His nephew learned how to make mirror websites and thought he might help the McCain Palin campaign by doubling their efforts. Red could barely acces his favorite porn sites with his nephew on line all night long. He changed the password and geek boy got a lap top from Amazon.

Well, when Red went to make a paymet to cougars gone wild he noticed that a good deal of PAC money got schuffled into Red's pay pal account.
Before you could say lickiddy split Red had 2.8 million dollars.

Red donated a mysterious $30,000 to the lodge to be used by member consensus only. The in fighting and intrigue that followed convinced Red that it might be best to move on. His nephew now resides in Atlanta Georgia and developes web communication software for CNN.

Red lives somewhere in the south of France not far from R. Crumb's old house.

I would think that there would be enough good thought generated from a Mudcat Men & Women, Maugham & Pauper roadshow version of "Of Human Bondage" to help our ailing heal again and if we can't make the world itself heel in obediance (healthcare for all?), at least the heeling effect could work on Seamus and maybe even Molly The Cat. But, in all seriousness, there are wonders that need working!

Now I know that the women in scheduling it at 4:15pm Mudcat Standard Time conveniently avoided conflict with both the weekday soaps and the Saturday PBS cooking shows, and that a few of the men have been grumbling that they hope it coincides with halftime, I'm sure we'll have all of us there that can be there.

Now as for those such as myself that staggered over to the bonding session from the Recovery Ward, do we have to hobble back across threads to our horse-spittle beds as fast as we possibly can (lickity-splint?) to be back on the recieving end of the grace in time? Or, for that matter, if we're in the same thread-room as the bonding session, do we recieve our healing grace faster than do those back in the Ward? Actually, the space-time continum issue doesn't really matter, as it's far better to give than to recieve and I have some very special prayers and wishes to send out.

Be ready! "We Are The World", eat your livers, or better yet, feed 'em to the poor! You ain't seen nothin' yet! Can anybody write a catchy theme song so that Mudcat can be represented at NEXT year's Grammys as well?.....

Speaking of "joints"................

I just told this story on another thread but it actually fits here. My wife and best friend is a Histologist. She makes those pretty slides of microscopic tissue samples you see in the magazines. She prepares tissue from biopsies and sugeries to be read by pathologists.

Karen has been a Histotech for over 25 years and has processed damn near every kind of tissue from brains to fingernails. She's had lots of assorted genital parts of course but the other day she had a necrotic penis come in. Had the occasional penis before but this one was necrotic, black , rotting, and as hard as glass.   Feel free to fill in the jokes on your own, but for me, well, folks if I have a condition/infection that completely rots my dick........shoot me.

Yes, Ebbie, so that our significant others and the police can keep radio-controlled tabs on our whereabouts....

It was Charley who called it Banding.

Sorry, folks, I left the computer and missed this and now I am off to a Burns dinner to do my best Burns songs and poems.

Mick

Trust a man to get the date wrong

The wimmenz meditation is Sunday 24 January, Mick - today. So you are not off the hook. Be there or face the wroth of Mary Sunshine.

4:15 will be about an hour into the game, Sev. If you attend, say "hi" for me. Of course, if the Colts are ahead by three or more touchdowns, say "hi" for me.

This what sports is like to some of us.

David Mitchell on Football

Yeah! I know it is European football (soccer to those across the pond) but in my view not much different and equally BORING!

There I has now put some sacrilege into da menz thread.

So me and VT agree
That soccer is boring to see
All that screaming and roaring
Is UTTERLY boring
And clogs up my bloody TV

Severn-

"Banding"/"Bonding" whatever!

I'm not sure how long we can depend upon bonding. I hear that the Obama Administration is clamping down on bond speculation by major financial institutions.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

No wrath, Ebbie. The last thing we need is a lot of negative thoughts about half time, poker games and afternoon naps interrupted.
Sev's crack about soap operas and cooking shows - that was low. I may have to slap him this side of his head. What century are you living in, Sev? The only women who watch soap operas now are in college. Somehow it's cool (or whatever word they use for cool now). And those of us who work full time have no time for cooking never mind cooking shows. NaNa Sullivan's cookbook suffices.

There must be something in the air. This morning my little dog - for the first time ever didn't want to go outdoors.

Then I attributed a statement to Severn when it was Charley who made it.

Then I mention mead at a Burns dinner (although I did have it once at a dinner - what does Juneau Alaska know about it?)

Then Sins responds to me when it was VT who made the statement.

I can hardly wait for the rest of the day. Or maybe I'll just climb back in bed and cover my head.

If you want "bonding" you just can't beat Gorilla Glue!

Just be careful what part of the body you apply it to...

Some prefer Duct Tape.

I tried Araldite on a broken castor yesterday. Don't know if the bond will be good enough. I know this is a joint bonding session and the castor was not cracked on the joint but surely the same principle applies. Can anyone help?

We had that back in the 70s. Most stoners just don't (didn't) get it... have a good draw, hold it, put out the joint, relax and wait. The less, the better.
