09 Feb 07 - 07:55 PM (#1962738) Subject: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn It is with some regret and serious thought that I have finally come to the decision NOT to leave Mudcat. The biggest thread I ever started (in this incarnation) only ever made 30 or so entries, but even so, although I have been villified and abused I have taken the momentous decision NOT to leave. Never having had Catspaw(49), Goik , Gibby Martinson, Dave the Gnome, McGrath of Harlow, Katlaughing,Peace, Rapaire, Greg Stephens et al ever posting to my threads I still will not leave. It's no good arguing or discussing. My mind is made up. The hell with you all I am staying until I get at least 100 postings. (more if you really want me to stay away). So Hello forever. Spot the Dog. |

09 Feb 07 - 08:03 PM (#1962743) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn See.....Negative. Why not say I would really prefer you to leave. "stay for all I care" is typical of this place. No one cares anymore. Not like the old days when we really cared if you went. Spot the Dog |

09 Feb 07 - 08:10 PM (#1962751) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Peace I'm happy you are staying. I'd hate to be the one to say, "OUT damned Spot." The Macbeths did that to their dog and poof, that was it for Duncan--who went and opened a Donut chain. |

09 Feb 07 - 08:13 PM (#1962755) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: McGrath of Harlow But if you don't go, you can't announce you are back - have you thought of that? |

09 Feb 07 - 08:15 PM (#1962760) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Peace Hey, he's right. Want I should start a thread that welcomes you back? |

09 Feb 07 - 08:17 PM (#1962765) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Little Hawk Chongo Chimp started a thread once on this very same premise, Spot the Dog, and he is STILL here too. He won't leave. You are in august company, and I hope you remain determined to live up to your commitments in this regard. |

09 Feb 07 - 08:26 PM (#1962775) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Azizi Who let the dogs out? It wasn't me. Well, I posted earlier this evening on another BS thread that I wouldn't be posting on BS threads but once in a blue moon unless they caught my fancy. And I have to admit that this one does. Spot the Dog, I'll add to your thread so you can stay-or does adding to your thread mean you leave? I'm not clear on that. And by the way, excuse me if this question reveals my lack of BSness, but who is Gibby Martinson? I recognize the other Mudcatters you mentioned, or I think I would recognize them if I had ever seen them which I haven't but that's not my point. Gibby Martinson, that name doesn't ring any bells. Am I having a senior moment? You can answer that question, if you'd like. Please. Thank you. |

09 Feb 07 - 08:50 PM (#1962794) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Charley Noble Gibby Martinson is probably someone who kicked Spot the Dog in first grade. I've never encounted anyone by that name at Mudcat and I've been here since the last ice age. I'd be the last to desire that Spot the Dog's residency at Mudcat be curtailed... Cheerily, Charley Noble |

And if I haven't then I have now and I must say I am getting no joy in it at all. On that basis I grant you the ability to either leave or stay as I could not possibly care less......unless you paid me to do so......in American money. Or just fuck it and take your sorry ass on outta' here you pathetically wasted and shriveled broke-dick mamalucca......... Spaw |

Still no Gibby Martinson (or is that Martin Gibson) still no Dave the Gnome. Nothing from greg Stephens or Goik. It's heartwarmingly clear to see you want me to leave but I ain't gonna go without 150 posts now. Special prize of a bottle of lukewarm champagne type wine (I paid 2 EUro for in france) for the 150th post).

10 Feb 07 - 05:04 PM (#1963438) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: GUEST,Sparticus Spot is a spot welder with spots. His hobbies are train spotting, playing spot the difference and occasionally trying his luck with spot the ball. The Ink Spots were among his earliest musical influences and he sometimes got into a spot of bother for playing his music too loud. His passion is his local folk club where he can be spotted at his favourite spot at the bar waiting for his turn under the spotlight to delight the audience with his floor spot (full spot) |

Before you all go helter skelter for the 150th post and the demise of that good old boy Spot the Dog. Just take a step back and think of the costs to Mudcat. I am well trained, never (well hardly ever) soil the carpet and have a famous UK childrens TV show where I am the main character. Think of all those children, waiting in the cold by their TV sets just hoping to catch a glimpse of good ole Spot and there he is, gone. You couldn't live with yourselves could you. There would be questions in the House, government enquiries, charges of bribery for the winner of the champagne (type) wine. Just don't do that 150th post, stay your hand and let that mans best friend Spot the Dog not leave the 'Cat. Spot the Dog p.s.

11 Feb 07 - 10:07 AM (#1963949) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave the Gnome There's an easy way round this - I am going to PM Joe and make sure there is no 150th post. It will go straight from 149 to 151. Just like we used to go from pint 7 to pint 9 when we discovered pint 8 made us ill... :D |

11 Feb 07 - 10:10 AM (#1963951) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Alba Alec, pat yourself on the back for a thread well cleared! I was not here you did not spot me. I have NEVER posted to this Thread. If (and it is a BIG if our Names) are mentioned as very important people, (much more important than any of those names on THAT "A list") then I may post until then.. you haven't spotted me today..ok? |

11 Feb 07 - 11:28 AM (#1963994) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Georgiansilver What I couln't stand was the wet nose and the way Spot drooled everywhere when it was near food time. |

11 Feb 07 - 01:42 PM (#1964114) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Rapparee Waddayamean, "every time it was near food time"? You could have just left that out and it would have been more accurate. But I want him to know that if he doesn't leave Mudcat he'll be in good company. I don't plan on leaving either, and you simply CAN'T get better company than that. |

11 Feb 07 - 01:43 PM (#1964116) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn Arrrgh, I am contributing to my own demise everytime I post. As I said in the thread title I really don't want to leave but man this is democracy in action. If enough want me to go then so be it. I don't mind packing up my pitifully few belongings in a little red handkerchief and with a small sigh, walk out into the cold,wet,dark (I never liked the dark even as a pup) February night. Treading the hard northern streets looking for a kennel to call my home. No more friendly pats in the Mudcat tavern, no more love notes from Spaw. But if thats the consensus, far be it from this cold, wet, tired old dog to stay where is isn't wanted. That should get em in the conditioned reflex. Spot the (cold, wet but brave with large warm brown eyes) Dog |

11 Feb 07 - 02:11 PM (#1964135) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: jacqui.c Yeah, right. We all know you're a smelly old hound dog who's going to take liberties the moment someone feels sorry for you. You fit right in here with all the other hounds (and houndesses) on the block. how could you ever leave (although I'll be watching out to bag the 150th post and the bottle - that I'll definitely drink to!) |

Hey, Spot, ya limp-dicked sheep shagger, welcome to Mudcat. And is you is or is you ain't staying or going? Don't give us any convoluted shit for an answer. A simple yes or no will do. |

11 Feb 07 - 06:43 PM (#1964387) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Georgiansilver We thought we were losing our dear dog Spot. But now it turns out we are not. With his big wet nose and his floppy ears, It's enough to drive the cat to tears. We would have missed his sweet doggy face, And his fur and tail if we cut to the chase. But now he's staying, are we glad. Or are we all just barking mad? |

11 Feb 07 - 06:52 PM (#1964398) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: gnu Mad, yes. Angry, no. He's just barking. He won't go. |

12 Feb 07 - 07:47 AM (#1964712) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: redsnapper It's a terrible dilemma Spot I agree. I vowed to leave Mudcat too but could not, even though nobody posted to my threads and any post I made to a thread would invariably be the last, i.e. the final death knell for that subject. Heavens, even Gibby Martinson never insulted me! Well only relatively mildly and then only about my sexual relationship with my mother and apparent lack of a known father. But could I go? I could not! I just have too much invested in antipathy to make that telling step. I would personally be worried about 'Spaw's post of 9 February... I think the old BBBBRRRRRAAAAAAAAP! is beginning to take a shine to you! RS |

12 Feb 07 - 09:22 AM (#1964762) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Rapparee Ah yes. The gentle brown eyes, begging for a pat on the head or a scratch behind the big floppy oozing ears. The soft unwashed fur, redolent of the dead skunk he rolled in; the ragged tail, cut short by a train because he moved too slowly, tentatively wagging, showing him unsure of a welcome; the breath that slays buzzards on a gutpile a hundred meters away; the unidentified stuff stuck between his teeth; the return to your lap of whatever it was he ate for dinner; the drool; the veterinary bills -- howEVER could we throw him out, alone, into the cold, dark, cruel, misunderstanding world? |

12 Feb 07 - 02:38 PM (#1965090) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn I feel I am being maligned here. I don't smell of dead skunk. This is the UK and skunks only come in the two legged variety usually wearing hoodies. I have a kennel club certificate (which makes me good for breeding)and my pups cost a lot of money (at least the two that I have have cost me a fortune over the years). I have a university degree (Latvia central) in Beano studies (£50-00 including the frame). If everyone stops posting I would be able to stay and value add this esteemed Cafe. Otherwise if the 150 posts are made I will have to go forever and join the MDDL (are Old Spot still dancing these days?). You woudn't want the champagne (type) wine in any case. It's cheap and nasty and French. Come on you, know it makes sense not to post. Spot the (getting desparate now) Dog |

12 Feb 07 - 02:41 PM (#1965095) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Peace He's back! I think Spot should be made a knight or something like that. At least a peer. Who's with me on this? Let's hear from you. |

12 Feb 07 - 08:13 PM (#1965498) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn "All my bags are packed and I'm ready to go" "I'm standing here outside the kennel door" "I'd hate to knock you up to say goodbye" "My heart is beakin' and it's early morn" "the taxi's drivers just stifled a yawn" "already I'm so lonesome I could cry" "I'm leaving with my chillblains" "Don't know if I'll be back again"..........see I have written you all a song. Granted it leans a little heavily on something from John Denver but nevertheless it shows what I could do for this liitle community if I was but given the chance. Just one chance to stay within the warmth and vitality of this wonderful Cafe. But no, he thinks, with a small sigh, as he tries to wipe the tears from his warm brown eyes, the tears that were jerked from the years of rejection and neglect. The small spotted dog gently lifts the red handkerchief that holds the only possessions he cares about (an old Gibson J45 guitar, a copy of every dogs communion prayer book and his blue Mudcat T-Shirt that he would sooner die than part with ,even though it doesn't now fit his emmaciated little body.) With a faint whimper, but head still held errect with what little pride he can muster (as his mother taught him all those years ago when life was good and music sweet and wholesome). Life didn't come with any guarrantees, he knows that and swallowing the huge lump welling up in his throat he limps off (Editors note :- His leg was damaged as a small dog as he saved a little girl from almost certain death by pushing her out of the way of a run-away truck. The wheels however went over his left back leg and he has had a limp ever since) into the cold and unfeeling night. Spot the Dog |

12 Feb 07 - 08:30 PM (#1965511) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Alba Eh... "I'd hate to knock you up to say goodbye" did you mean "to" or should it be 'then' perhaps??

I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn If I am to meet my demise in just a few more posts then I would prefer it if there wern't any cross words about grammer (deliberate) on this thread what I am to go in. Don't do it guys and gals. Don't post again and let this thread sink into oblivion otherwise I will never be spotted again. Before that 150th post (I will need a PM of the address to send this seriously bad fizzy wine to) I hereby promote Alec and Alba to the A-List. (show this at any restaurant in Beverly hills and a table will be assured in the better part of the place). Alba - I have applied for Scottish Citizenship and intend to retire to my beloved Galloway in the next few months. In anticipation of getting that 150th Post I would like to say goodbye to all the nice, friendly and smart people on the 'Cat and say nothing at all to the curmudgeons, assholes and brain dead cabbage heads. I pray the 150th post is stayed. Spot the Dog |

19 Feb 07 - 09:36 PM (#1973174) Subject: RE: BS: Thats it.! I am not leaving Mudcat From: Dave Wynn I would like this thread to be considered as closed. Thanks to everyone who posted and a special thanks to those who didn't thus allowing me to stay. An extra special thanks to the person who P.M.'ed me with nice things to say. So there you have it, Love notes from 'Spaw, no serious flak and a bit of fun to boot. I have taken to posting as my real name Dave Wynn (A.K.A. Spot the Dog) and will eventually sign on as Dave Wynn. I am not comfortable using a Nom de Plume but understand why people prefer them. I would like to thank my Mum (Hi Mum) and my closest friend Dave Polshaw, My agent (who only takes 95% and has to buy a most inferior late bottled, early landed port these days), my recording engineer for the subtle hum in Eb he created all the way through my last CD ( at least he assured me it would be my last CD). The guy who sold me my car with no 2nd gear and 'Spaw for all the help and encouragement that only he could so eloquently deliver. The final word must go to Spaw, it says all that needs to be said and possesses a finesse and warmth that could only be found here at Mudcat "just fuck it and take your sorry ass on outta' here you pathetically wasted and shriveled broke-dick mamalucca........." Eat your heart out Shakespear. Dave Wynn (A.K.A. Spot the Dog) |
