Subject: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Deni Date: 22 Sep 01 - 05:46 AM Hi All... I've just seen a refererence to the Mudcat Inner Clique, in another thread. Am I in it? Is Hawker in it? or after a year or more are we still too new. If not, can I speed up the acceptance process. Is there an initiation? do I have to be upended in a toilet bowl, like at school. Or dragged around by the hair? (it was a rough neighbourhood, you had to grow your hair to make it easier on the draggers.) Can I grease any palms or anything. We all like to feel loved and as if we belong. Especially me!!! Awaiting your verdict with baited breath and tongue firmly in cheek. D |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Banjer Date: 22 Sep 01 - 05:54 AM Hi Deni, as far as most of us are concerned there is but one clique at the Mudcat. It includes anyone that is a Mudcatter, member or guest. All are welcome and even though in some cases their opinions are not agreed with they are respected. So that makes you a 'member' of the clique... |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Deni Date: 22 Sep 01 - 06:02 AM sorry. I meant 'bated' breath. I wasn't being droll or troll, just ungrammatical. oh me! D |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 22 Sep 01 - 07:01 AM Well Deni, the thing is - there's really noone in the Mudcat except you and this metamorphic entity that masquerades as separate individuals.
We are Mudcat, resistance is futile... |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: M.Ted Date: 22 Sep 01 - 11:34 AM Obiviously, someone has tipped Deni off--Well, Deni, it turns out that one of the people here is the 33rd Level, Grand Master Mudcater, and Mudcat is divided into two groups, those who know, and those who think they know--As an initiate, you must take the secret Mudcat oath, given to you by your contact from the Order of Hidden Masters, but after the fifth level of initiation, you learn another, even more secret oath--Scattered through the threads are names that repeat in discussion--some illuminate the path of truth, some lead to the path of error--only the Hidden Masters know, and only they can open the doors for you, but who are the Hidden Masters? And who is the Grand Master? Should you listen to the GUEST, or the Gargoyle? |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Dave the Gnome Date: 22 Sep 01 - 11:56 AM I think I know the thread you are referring to, Deni. Is it the one where I was accused of being in it? If so, I had a good laugh as well:-) I have never been in any clique, would never wish to be so and would leave instantly if I thought I had slipped into one unknowingly. Was it Groucho Marx who said "I wouldn't want to join any club that would let people like me in it!"? Well, thats how I feel as well. The only Mudcat clique that exists is as Banjer described it earlier, or in the minds of some of our more 'reality challenged' members;-) If you REALLY want to speed up acceptance though a certain ammount of used fivers in a plain brown envelope could held oil the wheels somewhat. But don't ask about the secret hanshake and baring your left breast just yet... Cheers Dave the Gnome |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: SINSULL Date: 22 Sep 01 - 07:37 PM I am the guilty party who mentioned the inner clique in Gnome's thread. Well, the sad truth is, if you have to ask, you are not in it. Perfect place to tell you this, Mick. I have been unable to find homes for my last two kittens - one is named Fred after a predecessor whom he resembles in thought, word, and deed; the other was named Mickey but was unhappy with the title - too wussy. So it has been changed to Big Mick. He has a white ring on his black tail probably for accurate measurement. When I have a chance I will send you a picture. Mary |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Big Mick Date: 22 Sep 01 - 08:00 PM I can't wait, Mary. I am honored. I think I have a white ring on my black tail, as well...........LOL. Can't wait for the picture. Mick |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Rick Fielding Date: 23 Sep 01 - 12:09 AM SHEER NUMBER OF POSTS DENI! That's what it takes....so you'd better get busy! What does it take to make a "cliquie"? (or cleeky for those who don't like Canajun spelling) Well, there are certain words and phrases that you can sprinkle into those posts that'll have you knocking on the doors of exalted Cliquedom before you know it. "Possum". Don't ask me why. There are some things that are simply beyond human understanding, but picture that small furry creature (the animal, NOT it's originator!) in all sorts of embarassing situations....and write, my child, write! "Kendall". Get into an arguement with him about anything (tell him you think Taylors are for wusses) and keep it going for a few years. "I'm Leaving"!!! Yup, that's a good'un. Works well even if you were only here for two minutes to begin with! Give any reason you want to for leaving, and I guarantee you'll get a hundred folks begging you to stay (witness "X ED" thread) Start a "Thought for the day", "Joke of the day" "Diuretic of the day", "Marsupial of the day" thread. Something that will engender a loyal devoted following. Don't do your line breaks!!! This is playing with fire, but if you've got the guts, go for it. Make Joe Offer interrupt his life at least 12 times a day to fix your poems and he'll either learn to love you, or kick you in the cojones! Either way....you'll be noticed. Tell Doug R. he's too nice to be a REAL Republican! Ask Big Mick if he's really as handsome in person as he is in his picture...and NEVER let on that the "cleekies" know he's only 5' 9". Make out like you actually KNOW who Dave Bullmer is. Ask MTed to name the "chord" formed by the notes C,D,Eb,F,G. Ask Katlaughing about the state of liberal politics in Wyoming. Ask Susan (WSSYGGWWSYW) if she knows the odd spititual. Ask Gargoyle (preferably before 11pm) whether....ahh nahh, don't bother. And finally...ask me "What's the best way to play an "F" chord"? Or even better..ask Harpgirl AND me "What's so special 'bout that Leadbelly guy"? Rick (too weird to be a regular cliquie, but happy to be consigliare if needed) |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Blackcatter Date: 23 Sep 01 - 12:55 AM My question on this subject is: Does having an affiliation with cats help to get you in the inner clique? Especially if your cat affiliation is also tied into music? If so... My handle is Blackcatter because 7+ years ago I helped start a open-mike night at my Unitarian church. The first one was on Friday the 13th, so the natural name we came up with was the Blackcat Cafe. My "in real life" name is Tom Cook, one of the other co-founders frequently refers to me as TC - which eventually became Top Cat - and eventually morphed into Blackcat(ter) I doubt I'm in any inner clique - mostly because I come and go around here - Sometimes I don't seem to even check in for several months (but I found the Mudcat over 2 years ago) My problem is that I'm easily distrac

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: JenEllen Date: 23 Sep 01 - 01:24 AM Actually, Deni, you need to talk to BillD. He is the keeper/distributor of the secret handbook, containing all the rituals and handshakes, etc. He is also working on getting me my top-secret Mudcat decoder ring (they say they are leaving, but are they really??

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Crazy Eddie Date: 23 Sep 01 - 01:53 AM If there is an "Inner Clique", then logically, some or all of us who are not in the "Inner Clique" should form an "Outer Clique". I propose the following: (1) We adopt a left-handed secret handshake. (2) We adopt the Aardvark as our "Outer Clique" Mascot. (Down with possums!) (3) If any member of the "Outer-Clique" should inadvertently mention the word "POSSUM" he must grip his nose tightly between the thumb & forefinger of the right hand, and hop in a circle (widdershins) three times chanting, "Aardvark Aardvark, this is bloody Aard-vark" in a loud voice, to ward off bad luck. (4) No members of the "Inner Clique" allowed. (you may be asked to prove your non-membership) (5) Membership fee is one groat (No not GOAT, GROAT) or equivalent in CSA or Phenoecian currency. (American express? That will do nicely")
If you wish to join the "Outer Clique" please send your membership fee, and proof of non-membership of the "Inner Clique" to Crazy Eddie NOW!

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Deni Date: 23 Sep 01 - 03:17 AM Greetings This is exactly as I thought. You post a serious remark about music and you get about 8 replies. however, you ask a stupid question and it gets 47 and rising, and TOO MUCH WIT to respond to. and yes, the thought originated by talk of Dave the Gnome being a member. It's the WIT I've been missing around here, lately, and now we're back to an air of normality (albeit temporary)!!!!!!!! However. wit aside...there is a more sinister aspect to all this... I shivered at the warnings at the start of the thread by McGrath of Harlow and mooman, (part of me actually believes them)and I followed those two VERY spooky links, which said 'read this', and now the whole mudcat thing has taken on a new dimension.

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: GUEST,Steve Parkes Date: 24 Sep 01 - 07:43 AM I know there's an inner clique, and I'll tell you how to spot 'em. They're the ones who get their birthdays announced in a new thread! They'll tell you you have to put your DOB on the Mudcatters' personal details list, but that's just a smokescreen: you won't get your own birthday thread unless you're in the inner clique, even if you can do the blue cliquey. Not that I mind, or anything, I mean, the whole birthday thing is over-rated if you ask me. Not that anyone does. Anyway, it was only the Big Five-Oh, nothing to get worked up about ... Besidfes, I wouldn't want to belong to any group that had people like me as members. Ha! Put that in your pipes and smoke it, you--you-sheep!! Steve |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Amos Date: 24 Sep 01 - 10:50 AM Chere Mlle Pullyu: It has come to our attention that you are an executive member of the organization known as the Mudcat Inner Clique. It has further been brought to our attention that said organization has been claiming to be exempt from taxes under the statute for non-profit organizations, 401 (c) 3. However, it is my duty to point out that this status becomes forfeit in the event that any non-profit organization is found to be in violation of the Federal "Compassion for All Life Forms and Politically Correct Thought Standards for Federally Recognized Not For Profit Organizations Act" of 2000, which was signed into law by President Wm Jefferson Clinton at 11:59 PM on his last day of office. It has further come to our attention that the Mudcat Inner Clique has been using other life forms -- specifically civets and opossums -- for non-indigenous purposes and in unnatural ways. If this practice is confirmed, be advised that your non-profit status for the Mudcat Inner Clique will be forfeit retroactively, with back taxes on past revenues payable back to 1998. In this event you will be sent a bill for the amount requireed to satisfy the resultant tax lien. Our office estimates the full due amount including thirty-five per cent (35%) penalty will total approximately $13.47. Please advise that your organization is prepared to pay this amount within thirty (30) days of receiving such a bill. If we do not receive written assurance to this effect from your office within the next eleven working days, please be advised the matter will be forgotten in a haze of bureaucratic mismanagement and ineptitude. Sincerely,
Whoosapon Phurst, Esq. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: M.Ted Date: 24 Sep 01 - 02:42 PM Did you really want a name for that chord, Rick? It was just an example, right? Because if you did, first, it depends on what key you are playing in, and then, it also depends on whether there is a B or a Bb in the melody--the thing is that it is a compound chord, or, the way you have presented it, a partial compound chord--the critical thing may also be the inversion that you use, and, whether it is intended to be sounded simultanously, sequentially, or antiphonally-and then, at least in terms of naming, there is that whole question that Hindemith raised having to do with the fact that inversions are not really equivalent, because they each speak differently for the simple reason that, depending on which notes are in the low range, there could be whole different set of harmonics. so, depending on that the notes are, there could be a whole "phantom chord" that is the strongest voice, even though it is only hinted at in the notes that are sounded-- |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: catspaw49 Date: 24 Sep 01 - 04:02 PM Steve, we of the Inner Clique have been given orders by the Chief Thread Diddler, one Joe Offer, that the birthday threads are just ridiculous becasue they all say the same thing over and over. Since then, I have personally tried to heed Father Joebro's advice. I mean we haven't stopped the threads entirely, but there do seem to be a few less....but on all the birthday threads I have made a PERSONAL effort to assure that they DO NOT say the same things over and over. I do this because I really want Joe to like me! Therefore, if we are to consider this your birthday thread, and I notice that folks are saying the same things over and over to you......"Happy Birthday Steve"......It is incumbent on me, as per what Joe said, to be positive that not everyone says the same thing.
KISS MY ASS YOU FOCKER
Nobody said THAT did they??? Joe will be proud and happy!!!!Spaw |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Geoff the Duck Date: 24 Sep 01 - 04:40 PM Spaw - the big thing about Birthdays is that it is TRADITIONAL to all say the same thing. E.g. Happy Birthday to you! (1 - first line) Happy Birthday to you! (2 - first line again) Happy Birthday (3 - half of first line repeated) Dear Steve (4 and note the clever bit - you put in the name of the person whose birthday it is) Happy Birthday to you! (5 - first line reprised) I admit that there is nothing very clever about this, but it is common practice in most of the English speaking world! Perhaps Joe should institute a rolling programme of 52 threads, dated for each week of the year, where we can post felicitations to all those people who become older buggers during those seven days? That way we would only clog up a fraction of the server space that we sometimes do now! p.s. If this is posting number 100 on this thread, do I get the special prize of free membership to the Inner Clique???? Geoff the Duck! Treasurer of the Inner Quack! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Joe Offer Date: 24 Sep 01 - 05:01 PM I really like you, Spaw, but do I need to start a new thread to say that? Happy birthday, Steve, and everybody else. There - I have fulfilled my social obligations for the year. But, social obligations aside, I STILL like you, Spaw. -Joe- |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Clifton53 Date: 24 Sep 01 - 05:16 PM Happy Birthday to everyone!! Deni, I'm flattered, I think. I have the archers in my sights! But what of those huge bubbling cauldrons of who-knows-what that await me? Clifton |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 25 Sep 01 - 01:46 AM I still dont know if I am in this inner clique, can somebody let me know please? I live in Yorkshire, have posted before 8.30AM on a Sunday, but nobody made a birthday thread for me. I am not bothered if I am in the clique or not, but I just need to know! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Steve Parkes Date: 25 Sep 01 - 03:28 AM John, we outer-cliquers should start birthday threads for each other. Many of 'em, old son. Geoff, that "happy birthday" thing is a cracker! You should set it to music--just think of the royalties that it would generate if everybody sang it at birthday parties: you'd make a fortune. Steve P.S. Thaks for the good wishes, Joe, on behalf of all us OC-ers. Don't leave it so long next year! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Crazy Eddie Date: 25 Sep 01 - 06:33 AM Steve Parkes, Welcome to the outer clique. (secret left-handed handshake) You don't happen to have any ants about you do you? Only this Aardvark is complaining of hunger again. It tried to eat Aunt Maude this morning. Must be my accent that confused it. John in Hull, if you get a reply which says you're NOT in the inner clique, you're very welcome to join the Outer Clique. If you can e-mail me a few pounds of ants or termites, I can almost guarantee you a position as grand panjarandum, of the Order of The Aardvark. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Steve Parkes Date: 25 Sep 01 - 07:52 AM Crazy Eddie, we had some in the kitchen a while back, but they've moved back out again. I'll see if I can catch some and send the on. Steve |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: GUEST,Doc Rock Date: 25 Sep 01 - 10:21 AM I don't want to be a rumor monger, but some guy in a bar told me that his 3rd cousin says that all Mudcat inner clique members have both I.D. cards (worn dog tag style) as well as a bar code on their left buttock. My question is whether or not the bar code is a painful tattoo-like procedure or if is more like magic marker that will wash off with a good scrubbing? Even permanent marker wouldn't be too bad, I'm just sacred of needles. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Jeri Date: 25 Sep 01 - 10:31 AM Say Rick, I'm a fiddle player, so I don't know much about chords, but isn't that a standard D#Maj7/6/9 3rd inversion? Sounds like what they play whenever the murderer is stalking the victim. Victim slowly walks, but begins to pick up speed when he/she hears the footsteps of the murder and this chord. Cut to murderer also picks up speed. Shot of late night city streetlight reflecting off knife blade... |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Rick Fielding Date: 25 Sep 01 - 11:37 AM Ted and Jeri. I shoulda knowed!! Even when you write ten "clique jokes" in a row......there ain't no such thing as a "joke chord"! At a teaching festival (The Woods Music and Dance Camp) a few years ago, one of the campers (in a frisky mood, I thought) challenged me to name the chord he was playing. It sounded awful, but being an amiable sort I went through the "head math" and came up with a plausible answer complete with sharp this, and flat that. A couple of minutes later I took this person's guitar to explain a little fingerpicking pattern.....and discovered that they had no idea how to TUNE the damn thing! With proper tuning their "bizarre" chord became a D7th! But I digree....this is a "clique" thread. I always thought that the REAL Mudcat clique were the ones who'd showered NEKKID with each other!

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: M.Ted Date: 25 Sep 01 - 12:47 PM Rick, Jeri and I are both having a bit of musical fun with you--me with a bit of nearly nonsensical jargon, and Jeri with some enharmonic naming fun--the notes in her "standard" D#maj7 6/9 chord would be "D# F## A# B# C## E# " which are the enharmonic equivalent of C D Eb F G Bb --a messy example that they sometimes use in music notation classes . Just shows how far we'll go to make a joke! Incidentally, if you get one of your students to whack away on that chord, you can improvise, using an Eb major scale, and it sounds just dandy if you move down to the relative *AEOLIAN MODE*(You forgot to mention PeterT!) |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Jeri Date: 25 Sep 01 - 02:20 PM I guess my favorite key to play in must be F##, then. My favorite key to sing in is C.197. This is because I tend to treat A440 as a mere suggestion. Honestly, I just stuck the notes into Cakewalk and used the chord analyzer thingie. I believe this chord is frequently used for songs in the dissonian mode. (Which is also what most of my singing is done in.) |

I've been called an Inner-Clique member by trolls, too, even though I've been a card-carrying Outer Cliquer for a year and a half now. You've merely been nominated. There are forms to fill out, dark satanic rituals to perform (goats involved), catfish-shaped brands to be applied to buttocks, and secret handshakes to learn before you'll be a REAL Inner Cliquer.

Steve Parkes has jumped in to my attention and I now see him as a real person, that's if any of us are real. (See earliest couple of messages.) Shall we abandon this thread, or once in motion is it unstoppable? I like Hawker's idea of starting a thread on school initiation ceremonies. i have a feeling we'll all turn out to have been severly initiated, which explains the way we are now.
