Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Metchosin Date: 17 Jan 00 - 02:18 AM Sorcha, the vet assures me he was shooting blanks but it truly would have been an interesting mix, he looks like a cross between a Wire Haired Dachshund and a Dandy Dinmont and he is black. |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Sorcha Date: 17 Jan 00 - 02:00 AM Half-breed Westies?? Will they be half black and half white? How will you groom them? As Scotties, or Westies? Maybe they'll look like Dalmations? |

Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Metchosin Date: 17 Jan 00 - 01:37 AM In fact pour a round for everyone. Here's to old dogs in general. Our, "god knows what breed" Old Wort, managed to successfully perform the full act of copulation with our young West Highland Terrier this week too, despite the fact that he's twelve years old and neutered. Wonders never cease! |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Metchosin Date: 17 Jan 00 - 01:13 AM Pour a single malt for me please, I'm celebrating. I just got word that my 83 year old widowed Uncle-in-law? is marrying his childhood sweetheart. Here's to Jack! only took him three score and ten to get to the sack! (a fine musician too, I might add). |

Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Sorcha Date: 17 Jan 00 - 12:53 AM Susan A-R, do we take offense at "no ladies"? Here we are waiting for two days for Spaw to bus us a drink, and he says there are no ladies and the bar is empty? Revenge, thy name is woman!!! |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Robo Date: 17 Jan 00 - 12:46 AM Aye, well . . . I hear the wee Clifton's been huggin' the black beer, And scratchin' his bald head, for there's no Rob-o near; Let me say it right off, tis the brother, I'm here! But now he's gone, who knows where, with his glass left half clear; As it's been a long day in this high mountain town, I'll not puzzle the question, I'll swash it right down; Keep an eye o'er my shoulder, lads, heed every sound, And gimme two fresh blacks quickly if he comes back around! . . . Aye, still cold, too! |

Oh, the humanity of it all! Thirty seven drunken flamingoes standing in the street when the ambulance from the Neil Young Center whipped by here! The air is thick with pink feathers! It's enough to make a man long for the good old days of text-only browsers and Windows 286! I brought the next barrel of Guinness. So tell me, why does that one think I should feed the drum the good stuff! I get the good stuff! The drum is a Remo with the artificial head, carbon fiber body and graphite rear rods! The pale stuff is good enough for plastic! Save the mothers milk for me! Hey…It sure is quiet here… Okay! Who stole the tavern? Mikal |

Maybe his b---s will fall off intead of his monkey's. In the meantime, lets play a tune or 2 and belly to the bar! |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Susan A-R Date: 16 Jan 00 - 10:44 PM Wow! Sunday night already, and I'm STILL waiting for Spaw (well, I have done a few other things, laundry, bookkeeping, cooking, errands, reading of trashy boks, pancakes, etc.) but jeeze, what does a girll have to do to get a drink. Thank heavens for Sorcha, or I'd be dehydrated and depressed. As it is, well I'm just hunkered down with my port (very old port, I might ad) and a nice mandola that I borrowed from someone, and am biding my time. My bear friend is a bit impatient, and has gone to try his luck fishing in the jellow pit. |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Sorcha Date: 15 Jan 00 - 11:46 PM Helloooo, tavern sure is quiet tonite, maybe I'm not the only one that had too much fun last nite? Susan A-R, if that nasty spaw stands you up, I'll buy and we'll both kick his butt! |

From: Susan A-R Date: 15 Jan 00 - 11:13 PM Okay, Okay, I'll settle for the black vile stuff Spaw, just get you and your frozen monkey to the tavern, and don't forget Cleigh. There's this bear I want him to meet. (He is most grateful to Dave for defense of bears.) |
Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Susan A-R Date: 15 Jan 00 - 10:51 PM Brrrrr. Where's Spaw?? he was gonna buy me a drink tonight, and boy am I ready. Neat scotch when he arrives. In the mean time, I'll have some earl gray tea. Oh MMario, I just got a two pound bag of wasabi at the kitchen, so I'm sure I can spare you a couple of ounces. Hmm, this stuff is paler than usual, imagin if someone thought I was dealing in coccaine and tried some in the usual fashion. oh baby that would hurt. I just had a lovely day singing with friends. Snows of France and Holland, Julian of Norwich, the Great Silkie, Ezekiel, Pull Down Lads, Seven Bridges Road, Old Coat, Their Brains Were Small and They Died, Wife of the Soldier, Until We Meet Again (Dougie's) Oh Had I a Golden Thread. The Final Trawl, Inchworm. I am one happy camper. We haven't gotten a chance to sing together since this summer. I need MORE of that. Spaw? Where are yooooooo?

Subject: RE: Mudcat Tavern 2000 - 1! From: Susan A-R Date: 14 Jan 00 - 09:11 PM I'll come back in for it spaw. Say, have you ever been to Morrow Ohio? Bill Stains was in our environs last night and did the song (it's on DT.) What a great one. Right up there with Who's on First. I'll take a mug of the black vile stuff (I'll wait on the well-aged scotch until Spaw is buying) Then I'd like a seat by the fire. If there isn't one, I may just construct one and poke a hole through the roof. It is, as we say around here, WICKED cold, about 7 degrees, but - 30 with wind chill. Brrrrr. Hmmm, if Spaw is crazed aging and Mbo is hyperactive, I must be bad hair day. When it's not under a hat, I'm sleeping on ot, and in those rare exposed moments, it is a fright. Ahhhh! This is the life. Nice fire, nice black vile stuff, a bit of music (rauncy, but nice) and I am not on my feet, slicing vegetables or washing dishes. Life is good. Susan |

Thank gawd the Judge saw it was Cletus that led him astray and gave Cletus 30 days at the Young Center for "Malfeasance with a Marsupial".........Anyway, I'm sorry if he's been a bother...I think he needs the 12 step......and,uh..some Immodium too I think....Is that your chanter he crappped on there Meebo.......Sorry..........Hey Leej, if you see Blake tell him the Waylon Heron is missing and Peter may be suspect in his disappearance......Claims he never got back to Toronto on that Delta flight...........Could be.
