Yeah, I'm here. I'm ready for an entertaining education - go ahead and play your song. As long as it's about world peace and not whirled peas. Peas and jello don't mix - not even green jello.

Molly - You don't want me to give away the whole answer right away do you? How much detail should my explanation go into?

Praise - take a tip from the inebriated - if you crawl across the floor you're less likely to fall down (and you get a better view of knickers).

RANT ON/ Sorry, phoaks, I guess I've turned into an old timer/curmudgeon. Other than a few postings, this has got to be one of the most uninteresting, non-creative, disgusting Tavern threads I've ever seen here. Where's the creativity we've always seen in them? I pity any new person coming in here and reading this as representative of the Mudcat. I KNOW all of you in this thread have more talent than shows up here.

PLEASE, set the date on the threads to several months or one year, put Tavern or Pub in the filter box and go back and read some of them. They showed off the creative genius of the Mducat to its best./RANT OFF

kat - being one of those new people, I hadn't realized that these were a tradition, or that creativity was expected. I thought they were just BS sessions. Is there one specific thread I should look for to find out what the rules, goals, purpose, etc. are? Or did they just spontaneously appear (as creativity is wont to do)?

Homeless, no rules, goals, etc. just started last summer by one of our creative genuises, Lonesome EJ, after a particularly rough patch, meant for fun and often used as a place to blow off steam. They were incredibly spontaneous AND full of BS, BUT creative BS, that went well beyond the type of sophomoric one-liners this one displays. One of the very best was the Mudcat Juke Joint, but any and all that come up are worth some reading time. Thanks for asking, Homeless.

There are old and new Mudcatters in this thread. I was making a general observation based on past threads and what I know to be the creative talent of all of you.

Count me among this week's wet blankets.

I'm now gonna sing a song that I wrote (music only, of course)! Sorcha, this one needs some waltzing fiddle solos...wanna help? It's called "Scotland"

Here in the uplands
The soil is ungrateful;
The fields, red with sorrel,
Are stony and bare.
A few trees, wind-twisted—
Or are they but bushes?—
Stand stubbornly guarding
A home here and there.

Scooped out like a saucer,
The land lies before me;
The waters, once scattered,
Flow orderly now
Through fields where the ghost
Of the marsh and the moorland
Still ride the old marches,
Despising the plough.

The marsh and the moorland
Are not to be banished;
The bracken and heather,
The glory of broom,
Usurp all the balks
And the fields' broken fringes,
And claim from the sower
Their portion of room.

This is my country,
The land that begat me.
These windy spaces
Are surely my own.
And those who here toil
In the sweat of their faces
Are flesh of my flesh,
And bone of my bone.

Hard is the day's task
Scotland, stern Mother—
Wherewith at all times
Thy sons have been faced;
Labour by day,
And scant rest in the gloaming
With Want an attendant,
Not lightly outpaced.

Yet do thy children
Honour and love thee.
Harsh is thy schooling,
Yet great is the gain:
True hearts and strong limbs,
The beauty of faces,
Kissed by the wind
And caressed by the rain.

Well, I am shocked, SHOCKED!!! to find carousing and filth and degradation going on in a tavern, for pity's sake. And during LENT!!!!!!!! Dragging down the fine mudcat name down into the, well, the mud. Can we not, comrades, generate a higher quality of mud??????? I suggest it is time for some spring cleaning (scrubby-dub dub, suggy sug sug), here: !!!
