Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 13 Mar 00 - 01:50 PM The paradoxical thing is that this thread, which is about someone who appears to be a total asset to the Mudcat, and the "real" world, is probably going to a short one - whereas the other current one about that fella who, at present, is definitely not an asset (whose name I have resolved never to use) is already well over 100 posts long, with no sign of finishing.

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Bert Date: 13 Mar 00 - 01:54 PM Well we'll have to make this one longer then, won't we McGrath? Hi Mick! we missed you, where ya bin? |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: bseed(charleskratz) Date: 13 Mar 00 - 01:56 PM Gee, Mick, I hadn't even noticed you were gone (of course I've been incommunicado for most of the last month as well--so I have missed you, but I thought it was because I was gone...). I assume that you are returning from another extended battle against the forces of evil; good on yer. By the way, Shay Black and his brothers are playing Thursday night at the Freight and Salvage, the Berkeley folk venue/coffee house, along with Kate Brubeck and singer/champion Irish dancer Eileen (I don't know her last name). Shay frequently asks me to pass his greetings on to you. --seed

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Mbo Date: 13 Mar 00 - 02:25 PM Welcome Back Micheal Mhor, I've missed you big guy! It's good to have you home again where you belong. Thanks to Official Doorwarden and Greeter Praise, we have a whole slew of new 'Catters just itching to get involved in the fun. Wait till they meet you! You one of those "Men You Don't Meet Every Day" kinda guys! Hey, let's get all the newbies in and introduce them to Mick? Maybe tell them a story? The one about Finn MacCumhal and the 7 small men sounds good.... --Mbo |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: MMario Date: 13 Mar 00 - 02:28 PM okay -0 mick's back on the forum. Now how do we get him onto HearMe? |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: bseed(charleskratz) Date: 13 Mar 00 - 02:34 PM Mick, heck. I'd like to get ME onto Hearme--it seems to be Windows only, a goddamned Microsoft monopolistic plot is what it is. 2. Alison yearns for him tragically. --seed |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Amos Date: 13 Mar 00 - 02:37 PM Right you are, BSeed...not only are they Mac-stupid, they are assertive about it! Wlecome back, Big Mick -- sorry about the triple post.. |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Áine Date: 13 Mar 00 - 04:57 PM Dia dhuit, a Mhick-o! Glad to see that you're back where you belong. We missed you terribly. Promise that you won't go away like this again, OK? Frankly, I don't know if The Fair One will ever be the same . . . you know, she's settled down quite a bit since you've been gone . . . Glad to know that you'll be 'stirring her up' again soon! *BG* Seacht mbeannacht ort, Áine |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 13 Mar 00 - 05:28 PM Welcome back, sweetie! We've missed you! |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: wysiwyg Date: 13 Mar 00 - 06:40 PM Big Mick-- Obviously since I don't know you as you pass back in through the gate, I cannot possibly be the Official Doorwarden and Greeter, thanks be to God!!
But let this mere finial flag among one of many wave bright colors, snap smartly, and dance at the freshening wind that follows you. (OK, someone is bound to characterize the air, go ahead....) You lazy bums! While you're lost to all sense in falling all over Big Mick, how about a few blue-clickies so we mewling newbies may sample the renown that precedes his resumption of place? We'd like to be so affected! |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Mary in Kentucky Date: 13 Mar 00 - 07:12 PM Praise, Here's a blue clicky. Welcome back Big Mick. Mary |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Barky Date: 13 Mar 00 - 07:36 PM OK, this thread has gone on long enough without Mick hisself writing. MICK.... OH MIIIIIIIICK???? Where ARE youuuuuuuu????? ~Barky |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: catspaw49 Date: 13 Mar 00 - 07:49 PM Forget it Praise, he's a complete asshole. He worships the Fair One (that's alison) and yet the best he can pick up is the big, brawny Koko, the hairy one. He fancies that he cuts quite a path thru the ladies, but how many girls can you pick up in a thong? Well, possibly quite a few with the proper endowments, so to speak, but in Mick's case........well, its a small case. Mick felt he needed a little support in that department since his genitals were once descibed as resembling a pair of dessicated mushrooms bolstering a half-eaten cocktail wienie. So......he stuffed his thong with a potato. This would have attracted a lot of ladies if the dumb mick had put the potato in the FRONT......As it was, he looked a lot like Lassie with one caught crosswise. As for Seed......yeah, that's about it. He's now playing some with a group which is his second stab at the big time. His first was as a promoter where he booked a number of acts including Dave Swan, "The Great El Swanno." Seed elected to have El Swanno open the show and ended up refunding a lot of money and becoming involved in several lawsuits. Dave's act at that time consisted of climbing to the top of a 90 foot tower dressed in half a gorilla suit and fishnets. He leaped from the tower, did a jackknife into his "Swan" dive. At the apex of the jackknife, he lit a fart and rocketed into a fireman's helmet 90 foot below filled with lime jello. The resulting chaos caused a few to faint, two to go into cardiac arrest, and several dozen spectators were treated for exposure to toxic gases. So before you go too nuts over these two, have a care. The fact that they tolerate me should tell you something of the dubious nature of their characters. Spaw

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Sandy Paton Date: 13 Mar 00 - 07:49 PM Jaysus, Mick! Looking at my primaries score-cards, I see you did one hellova job up there. Are you now in line for an ambassadorship? Sandy |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: wysiwyg Date: 13 Mar 00 - 08:09 PM Spaw, thank you so much! Consider me appropriately guided! Ya know, you were one of the first to welcome me, and I think I've been warped permanently by that brief encounter. Of course I was predisposed, and so I should probably avoid these two. One of them looks a lot like a guy I described in a thread on Chicago club tales, Big John, only Mick looks... possibly human. BTW, I was just cruising the bbc photos and finally saw that what you are holding in your hand is a certain unsavoury one and apparently the gesturing is for us viewers to come on in close and meet the little fella. (And also is that a bottle of bleach on the ground nearby? Does Cleigh use that on you to be sure he keeps that fresh feeling?) *BG* I think I can *see* you gesturing the same sick and twisted way to introduce we new members (newbies! newbies!) to our conquering precedents. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: bbc Date: 13 Mar 00 - 08:51 PM Praise, the only things bigger than Mick's stature are his heart & his hugs. He looks great on the photo pages, but he's even better in person. Hey, Mick, welcome home, honey! Need to see you in person for one of those hugs again; cyber- just doesn't make it! love, bbc |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Áine Date: 13 Mar 00 - 08:53 PM Well, a cyber-hug from Big Mick is better than a lot up-close-and-personals I've had, I have to say! But, I have to admit that I'm jealous of anyone who's gotten the 'real thing'! -- Áine |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Big Mick Date: 13 Mar 00 - 09:13 PM The door flies open and the biggest damn Mick you have ever seen comes striding across the floor...........FAIR ONE..........Honey, I'm home.......Oh, sorry, thought I was back in the Tavern........Hows about we whip up some sliders,..........anyone got a jar of the vile black stuff layin' around...... I have missed this place. We got this phase of it done, now on to do battle with dubya.........I have got to quit this shit, gets in the way of my music. To those of you I don't know and didn't get a chance to say it to........Welcome to our town. With all its warts, pimples and Catspaw shite, it is the best place there is. And to all my old friends, thanks for the welcome home........and Big Mick hugs to all.........I have missed you. Thanks for the warm welcome back. Big Mick |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Sorcha Date: 13 Mar 00 - 09:19 PM Mick, don't know you well, but I would like to. Welcome home from the "wars". They have all gone crazy since you left. Even forgot how to "self delete" a thread by not posting to it! Let's find a pub and have a brew! Sorcha |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: Caitrin Date: 13 Mar 00 - 09:58 PM Huzzah! for the return of Big Mick. I might never have hung around at the 'cat if I hadn't seen his recipes sitting there in the tavern just begging to be tried out. Welcome home, big guy! |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: catspaw49 Date: 13 Mar 00 - 11:20 PM I hesitate to ask what that is Rick. In my case full speed is faster than a Stanley Steamer with a busted boiler...well, at least most times................. Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: WyoWoman Date: 14 Mar 00 - 12:44 AM Ah, Biggus Mickus, So fine to have you back among us, HoneyBunny. I've been somewhat scarce lately, too, but when I've touched in, it just hasn't seemed like enough of a party without the likes of you. Giving you warm, enveloping hugs (oooh. that IS a nice spud you've got there, friend. See, 'Spaw, he finally DID learn to put the potato in the front... Oh, he didn't? ummmmm.....errrrr ... Well, I'm that glad to see YOU, too, Mickerz...) The Wild, Wild WyoWoman |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: GUEST,John Gray / Australia Date: 14 Mar 00 - 06:52 AM Well, I,ll add to the posts and, although I don't know Big Mick, like myself - he's a VV, so goodonya mate. As a matter of interest, does the word "Mick" have the same slang meaning in the U.S. as it does in Australia ? And especially with the prefix "Big". What a bewdy.
Regards / JG - FME |

Subject: RE: BS: Big Mick is back!! From: catspaw49 Date: 14 Mar 00 - 10:41 AM Alison's post was mysterious. I think there is more here than initially meets the eye. I put some research into this and laid out the facts on a new thread....."Where WAS Big Mick?" Something may have been up....so to speak. Spaw |
