31 Jul 03 - 11:57 PM (#994746) Subject: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: khandu Most of you know the greatly respected Joe Offer,and if you know anything about him, you know he does not like birthday threads. In fact, some would say he hates them.I have pondered this for quite a while. Why would anyone hate birthday threads? Just to be sure, I checked the Mudcat birthday list and I found that, true to form, the greatly respected Joe Offerdid not include his birthday in the list.However, he did include his birth month, August (So proper that such an august fellow as the greatly respected Joe Offerbe born this month!)!"Eureka!", I shouted, joyfully!. I realized the obvious answer to the question...The greatlt respected Joe Offerdoesn't like birthday threads, because they do not last long enough!!! I mean...the day is done and gone in 24 hours! Not enough time for the birthday boy/girl to fully enjoy the festivities.By his inclusion of his birth month, I conclude that what he really desires are "birthmonth" threads! What a grandly wonderful fellow he is! Therefore, it is with joyful mirth and gleeful pleasure that I begin this month on the right foot. This is the first day of the wonderfully grand Joe Offer'sbirthmonth so I say loudly and proudly;HAPPY BIRTHMONTH, JOE OFFER!!!khandu |

01 Aug 03 - 06:47 AM (#994892) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: catspaw49 Well Joe, ya' gotta' admit, this is different.....certainly not your average birthday thread. As you are aware, I have tried hard to keep birthday threads from becoming a tedious list of generic postings which all say the same thing. This thread is so different to begin with that I don't need to say anything like, "Joe, you can kiss my entire ass" to keep it from becoming boring. This is almost as great a concept as my own "Non-Birthday Birthday Thread" which ran for over two months. I can foresee a similar outcome for this one! Admittedly, I was initially quite worried when I saw that khandu had started this one as his unhealthy worship of you was extremely worisome to many of us. After reading his post though, I think he is still cured and shows only his friendship for you as opposed to hero worship. We cured him onmy non-birthday thread and drastic measures were required. Unfortunately the drastic measures got a little out of hand. If you aren't aware of how we cured him, then you need to read the story that follows............................ Well it's over.......The first, and I hope last, Super Mind Altering and Semi-Patriotic Fireworks and Flaming Asshole Gala. I don't know why or how this stuff starts but anytime I use Cletus for anything, the one sure thing is that I'll end up with a long list of people wanting money from me. It started off so well............ The plan was simple. All we wanted to do was bring khandu back to his senses and knowing that a good cross burning might do the job, we started there. I mean hell, he's Mississippi boy and cross burning is a genetic trait. He had become a slave and a brown noser to, of all people, Joe Offer. Something had to be done. Somehow we got carried away. Tweed acquired through Bobertz, some Patty Poopchute and Harry Hardtool anatomically correct party dolls and we thought we might possibly use them as well. It's my fault though.....Has anything ever gone right when Cletus, Paw, Buford, and the Reg boys are involved? Paw went down to the lumber yard and liberated some skids and the Reg boys ripped them apart. The plan was to make 143 crosses with the skid wood and duct tape. Buford got involved and said the first one didn't look right to him. Why in the hell anything would look right to Buford is beyond me as the boy is always tanked up on Iron City and when he's not burping, he's whizzing on Mrs. Clanahan's peonies. But Paw agreed with him and they headed off to find a cross for a model. They ended up going to the Church of Evangelical Hollering and Tongue Talking Mohunkers where the good folks were happy to oblige. Of course the Rollers misunderstood the reasons here and, this being Good Friday and all, thought the crosses were being made for a religious ceremony and Paw told them to come by at 8 PM, or a little before so as to get a good seat. I wish he had told me........ About 3 PM the crosses were finished and the Boys started taking things up to the little picnic grove on 664 adjoining Ol' Man Rafferty's place. For all his faults, Rafferty is a religious old coot and was excited to see the crosses being erected on Good Friday. I guess he thought Cletus had turned over a new leaf. Paw went over to talk with him even though Rafferty still held him responsible for the destruction of his mailbox and a Buick hubcap after the Great Magnetic Ass-Healing Ring debacle. Paw commented on the new mailbox and hubcap while once again Rafferty was washing the aging Buick deuce and a quarter. Rafferty said he and his very religious wife would certainly be sitting out on their porch and it would be even better than going to Church as they had planned. Once again, I wish someone had told me.................. Since the Reg boys aren't any too talkative they were given the job of blowing up the Harry Hardtool dolls and stuffing their "tools" with Roman candles and bottle rockets (with whistle and report). It was a big job but they got it done. Meanwhile Cletus and Paw had filled the Patty Poopchute dolls with propane. They all worked together to drive the crosses into the ground and attached the Patty Poopchute dolls to the top. Cletus said they wouldn't be soaking the crosses in kerosene until just before they lit them which seemed okay to me. I had arrived to check in on all of this at about 5:30 and truthfully, I was impressed at what they had accomplished! Now I knew that these good feelings were generally the portend of bad things to come, but the mind is a funny thing and we often forget the past in an effort to hold out hope for a new beginning. This seems to be what happened to me as I felt genuinely good about trying to bring this thing off and that perhaps, for once, Cletus, Paw, Buford, and the Reg boys may have gotten it right. Once again, I should have relied on past experience............. The crosses were in the ground on a slight embankment with a propane filled Patty Poopchute mounted atop each one. Leaning against the embankment and in front of each were the Harry Hardtool dolls with their dorks pointing skyward and filled with Roman candles and bottle rockets (with whistle and report). This is a pretty conservative little place so I thought maybe the dolls would be better if they were covered or clothed and I ask the Boys to do so and they told me they'd do it....."No Problem Spaw." That should have clued me in but it didn't. My other suggestion was that because a light breeze had come up, it might be good to tie the Harry Hardtools to something so they didn't blow away. Again, I don't know what the fuck I was thinking.................. I should now take this chance to thank those who so valiantly helped in this and I want to extend my thanks to them for their part in trying to save Brother khandu. Carol, Tweed, Young Will, even Bobertz.......You all did your jobs and performed magnificently. I cannot thank you enough and to prove it, I have kept your part in this as well as your names out of the Sheriff's report. Additionally, you are free to disavow any knowledge of me or that you were ever even within a hundred miles of here. You have to admit though, it was one helluav' show! On the chance that we might need the services of the Neil Young Center for the Terminally Screwed, I asked for the Insanevac Chopper to be standing by. I spent the next few hours at home with Karen and the kids, eating supper and coloring Easter Eggs. When I heard the sound of the chopper I realized that several hours had passed and I was almost late for the show. I leashed up the two Weimaraners and headed for the park. Karen and the kids wanted to go but I suggested they stay home in case something went awry. This was the only good decision I made in the entire day. Besides, the "Royal Forkers" khandu had sent to surround my house had instead turned out to "mortar forkers" and had just completed the new barbeque out back and were busy working on a smokehouse. I told Karen it was better for her to keep an eye on them to be sure they were working according to plan. With Jaeger and Sissy happy to be going for a walk, I headed for the gala event. When I arrived, a few things caught my eye right away, but it was too late to turn back. First, each Patty Poopchute doll had a purple robe like affair on them. I realized right away that the material had come from a hot air balloon that Cletus and Paw had accidentally shot down a few years ago (that's another story). Sitting atop the crosses in their purple robes, they were really quite attractive. Additionally, the Harry Hardtool dolls all were wrapped about waist with old towels in a loincloth sort of get-up. To keep the Harry dolls in place, they had tied each wrist to something or another which left their arms outstretched. Also, out front of everything was the biggest Dago Bomb I ever saw. It turns out Cletus and the Boys had bought it down in Tennessee on one of their trips south to a festival where they had contracted for the porta-potty business with their company, "Crappers on Casters." And....they had been good enough to park one of their C on C's about 50 feet to the left, over toward Rafferty's place. I stood for a moment and took it all in. Suddenly it hit me. In the purple robes and loincloths, with the outstretched arms and crosses, this looked like some Christian tableau from Hell! There they were, 143 Virgin Marys, atop 143 crosses, with 143 Jesus Christs below! My mind went numb as I began to realize that somehow this extravaganza was not going to go well at all............. Before I could utter a word I saw Ol' Man Rafferty and his wife on their porch in prayer. About then the Church Bus bearing the members of the Church of Evangelical Hollering and Tongue Talking Mohunkers arrived in the grove. They literally ran off the bus dropping to their knees. I tell you they went down faster than a cheap whore on a Liberian tanker. I was rapidly becoming almost paralyzed. I couldn't speak although I wanted to scream. The main thing I wanted to scream was "NO" but the best that came from my throat was a tiny croak like a dying frog with laryngitis. Not over yet though................ Tweed drove a van in and he and Carol emerged from the front with a look of trepidation on their faces as they took in the scene before them. Wrongly figuring that I had this planned, they opened the back doors and Will and Bobertz hopped out. They all four then removed khandu. Okay, it wasn't their fault they had to subdue him...I know that. And frankly it was very creative the way they had wrapped him up in duct tape from head to foot with only his eyes looking out. Even from where I was I could see he was mad. But I still thought that this cross burning gone haywire might cure him of his shameless brown nosing of Joe Offer. But the way he was wrapped reminded the church folk of Jesus in the tomb I guess, with the duct tape as a sticky Shroud of Turin. In any case they turned and started praying in that direction also. Tweed, Carol, Will, and Bobertz, were busy propping khandu up so he could see when I noticed that the Reg boys were liberally soaking the crosses and the ground in between with kerosene. I had to stop this............... Cletus and Paw were all smiles, quite proud of what they had done and when I came stammering up to them they were a bit confused. I tried to somehow make them see what I saw but it wasn't working because my mind was moving faster than my mouth and these guys were never too sharp on the best of days. Each of the Weims was licking one of Paw's hands when I finally got through a bit to Cletus. After listening to the whole thing he said, "Don't worry Catspaw, even I know that Jesus had blonde hair and that guy don't look nothin' like him." This made no sense and once again I was so dumbstruck I was speechless. Cletus capped that with, "Besides look how happy Jaeger and Sissy are!" After what seemed like an hour, but was probably only a few seconds of pondering that inanity, I blurted, "You stupid shit!! They're fucking DOGS!!!!" This didn't bother ol' Clete in the least and he and Paw walked off happily to get the show started. I swear to you all, I would have done anything to stop it, but the whole thing had moved not only beyond my control but into another dimension as well. From this point on, it seemed as though I watched what happened as a sort of out of body experience; just a casual observer noting the events unfolding. In a scene like none imagined by Machiavelli it all began. Paw bent over by the crosses and flared off a monster fart. The flame shot across to the nearest cross, much like what happened in their Christmas tree disaster, and within seconds, 143 crosses were burning brightly. Cletus ran to the front and lit the monster Dago Bomb. There was one more realization to go though. Turns out they had tied the wrists of the Harry/Jesus dolls to the ankles of the Patty/Virgin Mary dolls which explained the outstretched arms. This realization only came to me as the flames ignited Patty/Mary's poopchute where the plastic was thinnest and melted first. The propane ignited and up they went......each dragging a Harry/Jesus behind. Maybe halfway to the top of their trajectory the flames ignited the Roman candles and bottle rockets in the Harry/Jesus dicks. I gotta' tell y'all........It was a sight to behold. 143 Virgin Marys launched off of flaming crosses with their assholes trailing flame while 143 Jesus Christs ascended behind them, twirling gaily with their cocks spouting red, white, and blue balls and rockets (with whistle and report) screaming off in all directions followed by a series of bangs. Simply amazing. The church members lost all control and began flopping around on the ground, talking in tongues, and generally having a pretty good time. Rafferty's wife on the other hand seemed to be having a possible heart attack. But it gets worse.......... Cletus was so shocked at the sudden ignition of the crosses that in trying to get away from the Dago Bomb he knocked it on it's side. A massive fireball shot out and smashed underneath the porta-potty. Obviously they hadn't cleaned it or something and the methane fumes had built up. The crapper shot skyward too and the methane must have been in prodigious quantities as the fiery outhouse travelled over a mile before crashing through the roof of the condom factory, setting it ablaze. Several explosions have come from that direction and a paramedic attending Mrs. Rafferty said that a vat of latex had blown and completely covered the Church of Evangelical Hollering and Tongue Talking Mohunkers which is located just across the street. The missing outhouse now opened the range and the Dago Bomb fired off another even more monstrous ball of fire. This time the charge landed underneath Ol'Man Rafferty's Buick and it blew up right there in his driveway. About this time the cops showed up and an ambulance was called for Mrs. Rafferty. Tweed, Carol, Bobertz, and Will were shell shocked as I was, but what was really important to us was our friend Ken. Had we brought him back? We quickly ripped the duct tape off removing small portions of skin and hair in the process. The church folks were gathering up the tape remnants which I suppose they think are now Holy Relics. I dunno' what the hell they're going to think when they arrive back at their church....which should be about now. Khandu lay on the gurney and the anger was gone from his eyes. As a matter of fact, everything was gone from his eyes! He was completely catatonic. We loaded him aboard the NYCFTTS Insanevac Chopper for a trip to the new wing where the James Taylor Rehab Unit on Catatonic Blandness is located. We can just hope I guess....... As for me, I foresee a long night of police and fire reports, possible fines, lawyer fees, and threats of incarceration, racing around my brain. Sweet Jesus, I need some drugs.............. Spaw |

01 Aug 03 - 01:28 PM (#995127) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: Bert Well, I don't think that I can even come close to Ol' Spaw's story, but I swear this one is true as well. A couple or three years ago, when I first went to one of those Getaways, I met our Joe for the first time. Now ya know that here on Mudcat he comes across as a pompous ol' git at times. Well of course he is the one leading the song/story session around the campfire. He must have been up against some other event at the time 'cos there weren't many adults there, just us kids. Well there was our Joe doing his stuff. Now knowing Joe only from his Mudcat postings I was expecting everyone to be sitting there in a circle with our Joe playing a guitar and leading them all in Kumbaya or some similarly inspiring ditty. But was he? NOOooo, He has this hat on that looks something like an upside down floppy version of one of Guy Wolff's flower pots, and he's standing there in the firelight, balanced on one leg with his arms outstretched emitting these weird sounds. Cor, the things you see when you haven't got your gun! I'm not too sure about the outstreched arms bit either, methinks maybe he's a wannabe preacher *GRIN* So have a good month, Joe y'ol fart. |

01 Aug 03 - 02:13 PM (#995161) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: Joe Offer I saw the thread title, and the first thing that came to mind was, "Oh, shit, it's Khandu." And, of course, it was. Thank you, khandu....I guess. So, yes, I do have a birthday some day this month, not that I'm going to say when, although I will say that I prefer not to deal with the "What's your sign" thing but I am NOT a Virgo. For that matter, I prefer not to deal with birthdays at all, since they generally seem to be a non-event. Most of my days are wonderful, so why do I need to celebrate birthdays? I thought I was 52, but a few weeks ago I did the math and found out that I will be 55 this month and will therefore qualify for all sorts of senior discounts. I would have retired from my U.S. Government job this month, but Clinton and Gore pulled a Margaret Thatcher/Ronald Reagan on me and privatized me out of a job in 1996 and left me to the vagaries of the marketplace. So I quit work in 1999, and so far, I'm OK. And I continue to find lighthouses in exotic locations - I saw lighthouses at Piraeus and Santorini in the Aegean last month. I was expecting to find one at Rhodes (not the Colossus), but I gess they tore that one down (postcards show one atop the fort at the entrance to the harbor, but I couldn't find it). So, although I still find birthday threads, tedious, it's nice to have one of my own, I guess; and I thank everybody for the greetings, I guess. And Spaw, I still don't understand you, but that's OK. -Joe Offer- |

01 Aug 03 - 05:06 PM (#995280) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: GUEST,Big Mick Mr. Offer, in light of the fact that you treat your birthday as any other day, that means that you likely won't spend anytime laying about on this day. This is a cause for great concern among the organized layabouts in North America. We have not worked hard in order to establish the need for laying about on birthdays, Sundays, after work, before work, during work, Saturdays around 3 PM, and at all other times. Hence, as one of the founders of Lane, Fielding, Patterson and Swan, Layabouts At Large & For Hire, I would like to offer you our services. In todays busy world, it is sometimes hard to take time off and just layabout. For a very reasonable fee, LFPS will come to your home, lay on your couch, eat your food, drink your beer, watch TV, fall asleep and fart, and just plain take it easy IN YOUR NAME AND ON YOUR BEHALF, saving you from the disapproval of your layabout neighbors whose spouses want them to be more like you. Inquire about our special birthday pricing. So, give us a call. And remember, when you need someone to layabout, call LANE, FIELDING, PATTERSON & SWAN, LAYABOUTS AT LARGE & FOR HIRE. Our motto says it all: All the best, Big Mick Founding Partner |

The Royal Forkers are keeping time with their trowels and swords! Tinker, the Royal Rat Terrorist, is howling in harmony with the Howling Wolf LPs playing on the Royal HiFi! The beautiful fragrance of kerosene wafts through the village.

02 Aug 03 - 10:57 PM (#995764) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: khandu Lin, due to pubic outcry and demand, I have retained my Royal Throne, though there be detractors from Florida who spread the nasty rumors that I have been deposed or died.

02 Aug 03 - 11:11 PM (#995771) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: khandu Think about it folks, What are we celebrating? Not merely that one of our fellow Catters is having a birthmonth. Noooo! We are celebrating the fact that JOE OFFERwas BORN!!!!You know, had he not been born, we'd all be sitting around, posting threads, such as the Why Hasn't Joe Offer Been Born Yet Thread, to which Spaw, in his great wisdom and compassion, would say something like, "I don't know, but it has certainly been a dreary world without Joe Offer in it." And think of the campfire songs that would have faded away into oblivion without Joe Offer being born. I shudder to even think of such things, and I, for one, am unashamed to say "Joe Offer, I am glad you were born and found your way to the Mudcat Cafe!!! Happy Birthmonth to you!!!" |

02 Aug 03 - 11:13 PM (#995773) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: catspaw49 Khandu, you flaming asshole! You're having this party and you didn't contract the Boys for the porta-potty business? Man, they need the money! Ya' see they got all new crappers on casters now and their first job didn't go well. They got 6 giant 12 foot fiberglass pigs from a Bob Evans Farm display and converted them to outhouses. Really, they're kinda' neat. See, they had been in a trough eating position but the boys stood them on their butts and mounted the caster platform underneath so now you have these smiling pigs with doors in their bellies. Actually they are pretty roomy inside and the Boys decorated them with pictures inside of barbeque ribs and the like. Plus they added an air freshening device which spurts out either sausage or bacon aromas to cover the "other smells." Sadly, the first job they signed on for was in Fort Lauderdale for what Cletus told me was a "Benny Bright" fundraiser. Off they went and things went badly when they arrived and the folks at the fundraiser were incensed and threatened to have them arrested. Cletus called me all confused about it and I couldn't figure it out either until I realized that "Benny Bright" was a Cletus interpretation of B'nai B'rith.......then it made sense. In any case, they're out of money and hanging out around Valdosta, Georgia where they ran out of money on their way back here. If you think you could see your way clear to send them a few bucks travelling money, I think they could help out with the festivities while also providing sanitation services with their business, PPPP Comfort Stations (Pink Pig Porta-Pissers.)

04 Aug 03 - 08:52 AM (#996375) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: artbrooks It is clear that khandu is so overwhelmed by his own mythological marvelosity that he doesn't bother reading other posts. Or else he would have noticed that I posted barely 8 hours after, in a rare instance of personal perspicacity, he began this thread. However, I decline to allow my personal opinion of the self-styled Emperor of Alabama, or is it Mississippi or Arkansas--anyway, one of those places known primarily for growing mosquitoes, crocodiles and kluxers--to interfere with my recognition of what the illustrious JOE OFFER has done for our Mudcat community. While he has admitted he is not a Virgo, once again Happy BirthMonth anyway, Joe!! |

04 Aug 03 - 11:01 AM (#996471) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: catspaw49 Well just great you asshole!!!! I get this call from Cletus saying they've arrived in Tupelo via your air service. Paw is in convulsions from whatever ta' hell your crop duster was spraying. I doubt if it would have affected him had he not been riding on the wing!!! You man put them out there when Buford barfed the last of his Iron City all over the cockpit but none of this really matters.....Paw will get over it (I hope) and the fact that Buford fell off the wing is no big deal either as he probably didn't notice and will come wandering along from somewhere. But maybe you could check up on Buford huh? And maybe you could part with a couple of bucks and take Paw to a doctor. He's gettin' up there in years.......... No, you simpleass....that was all okay.....sorta'...........The real problem is that your man left the Reg Boys to drive the pickup and the Pink Pig Porta Pissers across the Heart of Dixie!!! Are you nuts??? These are three Canadian dimbulbs (Fielding's half-brothers) who couldn't muster 90 IQ points between them! Additionally, none of them has a drivers license and the first time some good ol' boy in Montgomery gets a load of their accents, I figure they're in deep shit! A few of their "ehs" and some 400 pound Bubba will be doing a Fuckin' A on them! Now get your scrawny carcass in gear and go find them before they become a statistic!!!! And dammit, get Paw to a Doc!!! And if you see Buford, you could pick him up as well. Look man, it's not that I'm nuts about those damn loonies but I've grown accustomed to them over the years...............Proof positive that man can adjust to anything! Spaw |

07 Aug 03 - 12:23 PM (#998380) Subject: RE: BS: The Joe Offer Celebration Thread From: Bert Well I guess it's OK to have a birthday or even a birthmonth but where did you ever get the notion that JOE was BORN? What happened was, that the boys were inspecting the remnants of the previous night's campfire and saw that one log was still glowing. Now they knew that the Scoutmaster would give the hell for not putting the fire out properly the night before, so they decided to finish the job. And of course, being boys, they did what boys do and all stood around the log and watered it down with one communal effort. But! did the log go out? NO, it just glowed more fiercely and started growing like one of those snake firework thingies. And then it sprouted arms and legs and a flower pot hat. And that folks is how we got Joe Offer. Sorry Joe but I just had to tell them the true story. |

What can we, the Mudcat Community, give Joe Offer as a birthday present that would truly reflect the esteem in which he is held by us all. No, not a lifetime supply of Colonblow. We're talking something truly meaningful here. We're talking the governorship of California! (Please see THIS THREAD.) Yes folks, with a mere 65 signatures to get on the ballot and a little luck our own Joe Offer could be the man. Just imagine! Campfire singalongs on the Capitol lawn. Trumped up charges to get Gargoyle in prison and out of our hair. And don't forget what happened to that Reagan feller after he was done bein' California's Governor. On to The Whitehouse! So, you California 'Catters get on the ball and collect 65 signatures and let's make this thing happen. HAPPY BIRTHMONTH, JOE OFFER! JOE OFFER FOR GOVERNOR! JOE OFFER FOR PRESIDENT! YEEEEEHAAAAAW!!!!! |
