Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Geoff the Duck Date: 23 Sep 01 - 03:03 PM In other words You can tell who is in the Mudcat Inner Clique by the fact that they NEVER POST to the Forum. I personally suspect that they all live in Hull and use certain mudcatters as puppets - have you ever noticed how Les from Hull's nose seems to grow longer when he posts to the forum? Suspect anybody who tells you that you are not paranoid! Excuse me.... NURSE Can I HAVE MY BLANKET NOW!!! GtD! |

From: Nathan in Texas Date: 23 Sep 01 - 03:40 PM As a firm believer that all Mudcat threads should be music/lyric related, I submit the following in order to bring this one into compliance: I'm In The Clique Composer: Todd Rundgren Album: Runt, 197o
I'm in the clique, I'm in the clique
Get your greasy hands off the guitar,
Gettin' in the door will cost a fin
Maybe I could give you advice

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: GUEST,Guest, Deda at home Date: 23 Sep 01 - 06:33 PM Are you blonde? No one who is not blonde is allowed into any IC, that's the law. This is not Lake Wobegon, people, where all the women are strong. This is Inner Clique, where all the women (and I assume the men, but I went to girls' schools so how do I know) must be blonde. At least all the Amurrikin members. Furriners can have any color hair they want cuz they get in on a special "exotic" pass. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: GUEST,Guest, Deda at home Date: 23 Sep 01 - 06:37 PM And another thing. Furthermore. What's more, is this: How can we have a theme song if it isn't "I'm in with the In Crowd" (sing it with me people......) |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat inner clique? Who's in it? From: Malcolm Douglas Date: 23 Sep 01 - 10:22 PM I always thought it was Lake Wobegon; well, the American part, anyway, which just goes to show how much I know. The British part is obviously Yorkshire, though. |

Kernow John. I have been known to post as early as 3am British Time. I am sad and have insomnia. deda at home I have not blonde hair. My hair goes from jet black to bright red, I know not why. I put it down to walking on the misty Devon moors. i do notice that people are reserved when I've got black hair, nervous when I've got red. I did go blonde for a while years ago, and was perceived as approachable!, friendly (which I am) and fanciable.(?) Well I couldn't have all that approval, so I prompty changed back. Wyo Woman. I worship thee. Thou can make text scroll across the screen. I bet thee can also do blue clickies. I must master them this year! *grin* Nathan in texas. I love that song. Want to learn it. I must point it out to the people in our folk club. We try to make a joke of the clique thing at our club, but there's no doubt it does exist and we're trying hard to work it out of the system... Cheers and thanks all for the laugh... Deni

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! |
