BS: Welcome Popular Halfwit

From: InOBU

Let us all welcome my old pal the Popular Halfwit, over in Wiltshire, who joined today. A few notes for the Pop-Half, he called and asked how to send messages via mudmail. I forgot to tell him to look for messages at the top left of his screane by clicking the you have active messages thingie.
I would advise him to also look for the Help with HTML post, if someone would be so good as to link it below... So Kat, and Bonnie McGrath and GeorgeH, Mbo and all, let us welcome in the popular halfwit. By the way, he is a fine singer and guitar player.
All the best
Larry

Sure, Larry! Hiya, PopWit er...that was Half-Pop...um......is the other half Rock?**BG**=**Big Grin**

As out fearless leader, Max, the WunderKid is wont to say,"Welcome, welcome to the Mudcat Cafe!" And, to you, too, Biskit!

Half-Pop and Biskit, in case you haven't found it, you might find the Quick Links interesting. You will find bbc's Mudcat Resources there where you can gaze upon our ugly, beautiful, or whathaveyou mugs, as well as find out where a lot of us live, email addys and profile pages.

The HTML link that Larry mentioend is easy to find. Just go to the menu bar at the top of the page, click on Links and it will be the first one which comes up.

have fun, take your shoes off and set a spell. If you ahve a sound card and/or mic, be sure to check our the HearMe thread dated for March 5th and come join us in a virtual song circle. Even without a mic, you can still listeh in and take part in the text chat portion! That goes for you, too, Larry!

Howdy, Pop-Half and welcome. Speak up if you need anything...you will get an average of 8.32 answers for each question. If you post something factual, however, you will only be questioned by three others, so yoiu can see right away it is more profitable to provide questions, based on the annualized return...

And if you want real bang for your buck, mention possums, tiples, or give your definition of Folk Music. Here's where you can get serious return on investment.

Welcome to the 'Cat.

Yo Pop-wit or whatever, welcome to the Internet version of Care in the Community - I'd say with a handle like that you were well (if not over, in that you still have half your wits left) qualified to take up residence.

Just remember, large pinch of salt and a lot of alcohol are really REALLY helpful when reading/posting...

Welcome! You live in a wonderful part of the country. I have always said there is a retirement home waiting for me there. (In a good few years of course). Anywhere near Melksham? I have a friend down there.

Well it's nice to have a popular halfwit here. You'll stand in sharp contrast to the unpopular ones who show up from time to time. Just ignore them and they'll go away. The regulars here are a wonderful source of information, fun, and insightful commentary. Dive right on in and join the fun! Welcome!

Aw geez, here we go again.........So Larry, is this guy related to Hiroshi Ogura or Fast Eddie the Flying Flash? Or is it that you are in fact ready for some serious "treatment by tiple" at the Neil Young Center for the Terminally Screwed? I mean here we all are saying "Hi" to, uh...like who?.......If the dude is a popular halfwit his rep is being trashed here as his failure to show would lead more credence to "Fictitious Fool." A lot of your past postings and your zip out at annaps might be signs that YOU are a dubious character of questionable reality yourself.

So let's get on the stick and prove your Mudcattedness by popping Happy Dimbulb up the side of the head. Failure to perform on your part will be cause for a visit by the Insanevac chopper and a prolonged stay for you at the Young Center.

Hey - PHW, did Larry tell you that the first round's on you? He sometimes forgets those little details until after you're hooked. Welcome anyway!

From: GUEST,"Pop up" the Popular Halfwit.

Dear inmates. Many thanks for the warm welcome. The main reason for my lack of response to your outpouring of friendship is owing to my remaining half a wit being almost totally dislocated by my experiences whilst in the company of inOBU(Larry)in NYC last week. I'm now trying to cope with the message system. Bye the way. It's really great to note that many of you seem just a little bit "potty". I do like that!

Now that's more like it....Larry, I'll cancel the chopper. Welcome to the Mudcat and go ahead and join up...You get a cookie. No Ice Cream though........

As the facts of the visit check out, that is indeed my wife and my dearest friend, the very tallented and often musical popular halfwit, master yatch racer from the one meter variety to to family sized, fearce picker of guitars and wielder of the great southern English ballad. The forum awaits the impact of your wit and a half.
All the best

Oh, Pop old man:
For some reason you are logging in as Guest. This is because you may be logging in from another computor, playing with mudcat at work are we? This is what the reference to a cookie is, the cookie is the wee blue heading which tells us who is writing in. Also, at the top right you will find, among quick links, bbcs reasourses, where you can find photos of the rest of the asylum.
All the best

Cheers, Pop-Half! I'm fairly new at the Mudcat game and an absolute abecedarian at handling this wild web thing. You will find yourself in congenial company here, as long as you have a hide like a rhinoceros.
