07 Oct 02 - 11:59 PM (#798661) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: GUEST,.gargoyle You ask for LJC - let the mudcatters and himself tell you.
He is the person John in Hull is trying to emmulate.
If I were in character, I'd probably say something like, "Little John Cameron is a little jealous because his Little John is so little." But I'm not in character so I'll keep my mouth shut. 14 Jul 00 From: GUEST,A Boy Named Sue Perhaps Little John Cameron could check this out, since I believe he lives in Newfoundland. With really tremendous luck, he might actually get to meet Ms Rutledge and receive some instruction in the social niceties, which could be quite beneficial for an uncultured ruffian like him... From: Little Hawk Date: 20 Aug 02 - 05:03 PM Just a few words to Little John Cameron and Ewan McVicar- Laddies,ye're a braw pair o' kilt-wrapped oatmeal porridge guzzlers Lonesome EJ 12 Aug 00
little john cameron, did Spaw give you permission to post that obscene picture of him? CarolC 15 Nov 00 Who is this guy posting as Little John Cameron? He must have hacked into Mudcat with LJC's password. I know it's not the real Little John Cameron because this guy is posting in plain English, a language that the real LJC does not use. Mac MacMac 25 Jul 01 I had a strange experience an hour ago, while on Mudcat. I thought I saw a message from little john cameron titled RIP Donny Osmond in which he claimed that Donny Osmond had been found dead in a Louisiana bordello. But, next time I looked, the thread had disappeared. Spooky, or what? Murray 24 Jun 02
There is also information on the net about depression and stress . GET HELP!!! You can't do it alone. I KNOW!! They put me on Zoloft as the diagnoses was panic attacks and depression. After about 3weeks i started to come out of it.Started to talk to the other patients and walk around a bit.The attacks still came and went at random but gradually became managable. Iam ok now but have to keep taking Zoloft every day or they come back. LJC 06 Oct 00

08 Oct 02 - 10:29 AM (#798896) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: Rick Fielding Shitfuck! Little John's been my friend for a lotta years now. We met thirty plus years ago when he came to stay at the rooming house I lived in on Admiral road in Toronto. Catfriends, I wish I could convey to ya what a breath of fresh air John is.....he IS a little guy, probably about five foot three and a hundred pounds.....but WHAT a VOICE! Sounds like Waylon Jennings or Johnnie Cash. We usta sit on the back porch til all hours of the morning yakking and picking.....those were good times. He has a wonderful sense of humour.......oh....and was quite a 'ladies' man! Both of us joined the well-known band "The Sons of Erin" at the same time. It was kind of funny.....The band needed members quickly and although neither John (a Glaswegian) or me (Montreal born) had ever even SEEN Ireland we quickly donned the requisite White Fisherman's sweaters!! Big Mick has the only picture in existance of this version of "The Sons.." Maybe he can run it in this thread. HANG TOUGH JOHN! I'VE BEEN THROUGH IT MYSELF THIS YEAR. YOU'LL MAKE IT! Love Rick |

09 Oct 02 - 06:54 PM (#799868) Subject: 23rd Psalm in Scots From: wysiwyg This is close to how he sent it to me. I didn't save it, it turns out; he sent me so many things that finally I just could hear almost anything in his soft tone, just by thinking of him; saving individual items seemed to become less important. Note these two lines in the last verse, as you think of ljc: Surely guidness an' mercy, despite a' my roamin' Wull gang wi' me doon tae the brink o' the river. ~S~ ================================================== 23rd Psalm in Scots The Lord is my Shepherd in nocht am I wantin' In the haugh's green girse does He mak me lie doon While mony puir straiglers are bleatin' and pantin' By saft-flowin' burnies He leads me at noon. When aince I had strayed far awa in the bracken, And daidled till gloamin' cam ower a' the hills, Nae dribble o' water my sair drooth to slacken, And dark grow'd the nicht wi' its haars and its chills. Awa frae the fauld, strayin' fit-sair and weary, I thocht I had naethin' tae dae but tae dee. He socht me and fand me in mountain hechts dreary, He gangs by fell paths which He kens best for me. And noo, for His name's sake, I'm dune wi' a' fearin' Though cloods may aft gaither and soughin' win's blaw. "Hoo this?" or "Hoo that?" -- oh, prevent me frae spearin' His will is aye best, and I daurna say "Na". The valley o' death winna fleg me to thread it, Through awfu' the darkness, I weel can foresee. Wi' His rod and His staff He wull help me to tread it, Then wull its shadows, sae gruesome, a' flee. Forfochen in presence o' foes that surround me, My Shepherd a table wi' denties has spread. The Thyme and the Myrtle blaw fragrant aroond me, He brims a fu' cup and poors oil on my head. Surely guidness an' mercy, despite a' my roamin' Wull gang wi' me doon tae the brink o' the river. Ayont it nae mair o' the eerie an' gloamin' I wull bide in the Hame o' my Faither for ever. ============================================= And another version: 23rd Psalm by John Moir, Banchory Wha' is my shepherd weel I ken The Lord himsel' is he: He leads me whaur the girse is green An' burnies quiet that be. Aft times I fain astray wad gang An wann'r far awa': He fin's me oot, he pits me richt An' brings me hame an' a'. Tho I pass through the gruesome cleuch Fin' I ken He is near: His muckle crook will me defen' Sae I ha'e nocht to fear. Ilk comfort whilk a sheep could need His thoghtfu' care provides: Tho' wolves an' dogs may prowl aboot In safety me He hides. His guidness an' his mercy baith Nae doot will bide wi' He - While fallded on the fields o' time Or o' eternity. |

09 Oct 02 - 11:38 PM (#800075) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: katlaughing A couple of years ago, ljc sent me this in a PM. I don't think he'd mind my sharing. I'd like to think this is all he is doing, right now: I see you are getting a bit frustrated with the nonsense. Me too so i am having a nap til a worthwhile subject comes up. He and I also had a great discussion on metaphysics in which he said "THOUGHTS are everything." So, I know he will know, on some level, of all of our thoughts and prayers. On our minds and in our hearts, weeyins...luvyakat |

10 Oct 02 - 01:23 PM (#800465) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: Big Mick Frank, he can only be lost to you if you allow it, my friend. Immortality comes in the thoughts of those that love us. Little John is a lucky man. He will get away from us soon, or so it appears. But if a person leaves this world with people who love him/her, then they live on here in our hearts. Little John Cameron infected this place with his humor, and his gregarious sense of self. This is in the best of the traditions of the Celt. We shall always sing his song here, and as long as we do, then he will not have left, but rather be standing just the other side of the shade waiting for the time when the veil is the thinnest. And surely he will be wearing a kilt...................LOL. I hate to see him get away, but to those that love him, we are here to help you share your grief. But then we must listen for his voice in others, and carry his song in our hearts. All the best, Mick |

10 Oct 02 - 01:45 PM (#800484) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: catspaw49 Immortality...........When we lose a friend, my nephew suggested that it's like having a hole in your heart. When I thought for a moment about it I told him he was wrong. Good friends, good people, can only fill your heart with the memories of the wonderful things you have shared and they have left for you to share with others. That's really all that our hearts are made of.......the memories of those we know and those we have known. Little John, you are always in my heart. Go in peace... And Frank....Please pass on our feelings to his family if you can. We'd appreciate it. Pat |

Good traveling to a friend whom I never actually met in this life, but whom I seem to know pretty well in any case.

10 Oct 02 - 05:15 PM (#800618) Subject: RE: Bad News on ljc From: Kim C It is funny, how you never meet someone in person and yet consider them a friend. I enjoyed his stories very much, and all the links he used to send me. One of my favorite things was the pictures of Newfoundland in the snow - I believe several others of you got this as well. Well, I can't find anything clever to say. I was very fond of him and am sad for him to go. |
