Words Lorcan tune Freight Train Blues as sung by Dylan...

Here is a little story that I first did hear
from daughter of an electrical engineer
she was stripping a length of wire on her broken tooth
she winked at me and said I'll tell to you the truth

Chorus: I got the mudcat bluuuuuuuueeeessss,
right down to the bottome of my cat scratched shoes
and server crash I feel like trash, cause no amount of cash
is ever going to bruise the mudcat blues

Ol' shortly and ol ragtime were chuggin down the line
I knew it was only gonna be some time
Before they met head on with a mighty crash
and I was left like a junky with an empty stash

Chorus

Now someone call ol' Skarpi and his ambulance
rush me off to Iceland its my only chance
Cool my burning head in a glacier's frost
Cause without ol mudcat I am surely lost

Chorus

Tell ol Spaw to fire up the beans
we gotta power Mudcat by extraordinary means
look out eastern seaboard Spaw's about to blow
power up them turbines cause all now know

Chorus

right down to the bottom of my cat scratched shoes
and when the servers crash I feel like trash, cause no amount of cash

Running on the backup server now. Say hello to Zappa. She's not meant for webserving, but she should do till I get Tao back in action.

Zappa is a handcart running down the line
powered by spit and pints of terpintine
When Max's hands are too blistered to pump the wheel
Zappa looses headway and once more I feel... I got them...

Welcome, Zappa.
Is there(or should there be)a website somewhere we can find out what's happening when the Mudcat vanishes out of our lives? Just trying to prevent a world wide suicide epidemic!
Cheers
Ray

I got Tao back in action and once again taking over the www.mudcat.org duties. Everything seems OK with her, but should she crap out, I'm going to leave zappa.mudcat.org online for now, so use that if and only if www.mudcat.org fails to work for you.

Hang on to your hats Toa is passing by...
She's a streamliner express it could make ya cry
She'd blow the ears right off your head and that's no lie
but even an express train derails by and by

I got them mudcat....

I have noticed another speight of Server/ISP outages - AOL tonight, my e-mail was out for three days and someone else was moaning. I don't think the UK gov's declaration of allowing more people access to phone and e-mail traffic info is totally unconnected. I would estimate that the powers that be are moving to level 3 intrusion and that will be upped when the bombs start to be honestly acknowledged.

My new shinier e-mail service can't download 2.5 Mbytes od attachment nor can I forward it from the web-mail service. But it is newer and better. Huh?

Nice song, Larry.
