It is mud season in Maine. Soon to be followed by summer - most likely July 22, this year. Then fall and winter again. I feel like we're in a rut. The same all thing every year.

Had my oatmeal and coffee this morning. An apple later for a snack. maybe a bit of JD ont he rocks is in order.

Janie, wake up! We are waiting for a story.


I'll declare the Tavern open for Springlings.



Spring is sprung, der grass is riz,
I wonder where dem boidies is?
The little boids is on the wing.
But dat's obsoid, de wings is on de boid!

And he enters, singingly, strumming on his twelve-string banjo-lute:

Now is the month of Maying
When merry lads are laying
Fa la la la la la la la
Repeat

Each with his bonny lass
Get-ting a little ass
Lewdly sing cuckoo!

Sidling up to the bar he asks for whisky and oatmeal.

"Gotta keep the old ticker healthy," he says as he dunks his watch into the gluey mess.

I've got several gross of Deviled MOA eggs back in the kitchen. A little spicy though. I think I shouldn't have used the poweder habeneros instead of paprika.

The smallest of a litter of six, in *most* ways he was a perfectly normal sample of beagle. But instead of the normal beagle colours and pattern he was tiger striped! And to make matters worse, he was tiger-striped in deep irish setter red on a black background!

When people came in to look at the puppies the strange little puppy would hide in the darkest corner of the kennel. Because he had no white markings to give him away,he went un-noticed in the shadows for quite some time.

By coincidence, the man who bought the puppy shared a name with an infamous football player, but they were not one and the same. This particular Michael Vick was of the Vick's cough and cold remedy clan. He didn't even like American football.

If only we had a blue whale...alive, alive-o. Like poor Molly Malone, in Dublin's fair city where girls are so pretty, where I first sank me fangs in sweet Molly Malone. That's how my old buddy Vlad used to sing it. He always said that she now wheels her wheelbarrow through crypts broad and narrow. Odd chap, Vlad. Haven't seen him since I invited him to a steak dinner. Just as well, I guess, he was always sticking his friends for the drinks. Said he was trying to cure his constant coffin.

Unfortunately, the puppy would have been better off if the Michael Vick who purchased him had been the football player. If that were the case, he would only be starved, abused, and used in illegal dogfights. But the Michael Vick who did buy the puppy had far worse things in mind. Yes, his plans were to give the puppy a mega-dose of Vick's Nyquil and have him (shudder!!!) operate machinery!

Shades of Dallas - the above was just a bad dream that the poor little tiger striped beagle had.
IN REALITY, a nice lady from Maine fell in love with the little fella and took him back to her home in South Portland where Alice the Cat decided he must be one of her long gone kittens. She was happy to nurse him and cuddle him and include the little guy in all her kitty adventures.

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat First (or No) Quarter Tavern
From: Bee-dubya-ell

The Arctic doesn't have penguins because it has puffins. The Antarctic doesn't have puffins because it has penguins. The two fill pretty much the same niche. If you've ever seen video footage of puffins feeding underwater, they swim almost as well as penguins. The main difference between the two, other than that puffins can still fly, is that penguins wear tuxedos while puffins wear clown suits.

Fang stood for NewFangled. The puppy was actually the result of a secret government cloning project gone awry.


Wonder if we should bring the Christmas Tree down from the rafters? Anyone seen the duck?

No squid; no duck; not even that annoying mouse. I may just take Fang and go home. Shades of Cartman - "Screw you guys! I'm going home. No kitty! This is my Chocolate Covered Chicken nuggets."

Gimme something hard and strong please... had another disturbed night - this time due to my bloody sister sending me a text message at bloody 3.00am! You really think that after 20+ years living in the southern hemisphere, she would know what the fecking time difference is!

And yes, I know I could turn my mobile phone off at night, but I don't. I have a pathological need to know people can contact me in an emergency without waking the whole house.

Trouble is, my sister has a strange idea of what is an emergency and what isn't. Last time she waited 3 days to tell me that my mother was in hospital. Last night was the 'I think you better try to get over here' call, that could have waited 4 hours for either of us. Not a lot I can do until the bank opens at 9, so telling me at 3 just gave me a sleepless night.

Bert? Thank heavens! Someone put this vile mess in front of me and wants me to believe it is a steak medium rare with a baked potato on the side with a salad. It is green Jell-O. They know it . And i know it.
How about a fry up? That would go so well with my 5th JD on the rocks with a twist...(Urp)...Happy Birthday, by the way.

Quietly creeping in from the Exit leading to the NYCFTTS, SINSULL sits at the bar and whispers "JD on the rocks with a twist".
She muses "I honestly thought that letting him get crucified would make him happy. But NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Braveheart my ass. He is whining little snot."
