Dear Peggy,

One great advantadge to Mudcat membership is that we can send personal messages to any other member. With a personal message, you could thank Sorcha privately, without putting up a thread that might initially make some of us worry that Sorcha might be in a crisis or something. Membership is free, and it has absolutely NO bad effects, like getting spam, etc. You just go to the Membership heading on the masthead, and click! It will ask you for your name and some other info that would only be used in an emergency--Max doesn't play with the list--or sell it! It will also ask you for a name you'd like to have as your Mudcat "handle", and a password. It's fast and easy, and the price can't be beat! I hope you'll join us--I think you'll find Mudcatters to be a warm, friendly, helpful bunch!

All the best,

Marymac

Surely "curmudgeon" is gender neutral to begin with? An equal opportunity word. For anyone who sometimes feels like acting like a bear with a sorcha head...

Kevin, I think we threaded an understanding once upon a time that sort of summarizes like this-- that while there are certainly boy and girl mudgeons, they ain't quite interchangeable. Womudgeon?

wouldn't the feminine of "cur"mudgeon be b*tchmudgeon?

Oh yeah, ahoy for the killer wail. Song finder and glitter gawdess. The hamsters have choreographed 'the b*itchmudgeon' and it's a sight to behold. Scratch your toe in the dirt, blush, squint your eyes and waggle your finger just so...aw, hell, you know how it goes....(thanks for everything, darlin' *g*)

*NOT* referring to the Scorch -

but it wouldn't normally be their finger that b*tchmudgeons would be waggin'!

oops! Can't believe I actually typed that!

Only if cur meant male dog. Cur is another equal opportunity word, as I see it. Some curs are dogs and some curs are bitches.

No curmudgeon is interchangeable with any other curmudgeon. In the last resort, that is what being a curmudgeon is all about. Grrr.

actually I was thinking along the lines of "cur - a worthless, snarling fellow" - notice the definition doesn't say "person"

Well, Sorch, mudgeon or no mudgeon, it is clear you will do to go down the road a piece with. So let me add thanks for being a reg'l'ar voice (or reasonable feminine facsimilae thereof) over the years we have been weaving threads on the 'Cat....

Warmest regards,

A.

Now, for reasons you can deduce for yourselves, I know how to pronounce Welsh names, but just how does one pronounce "Sorcha", Hmm?

Subject: RE: Sorcha

Grayd: pronounce it as Welsh then you pronounce it as written. Welsh is a "phonetic language"!
Hwyl Dda!

p.s. when will you log in to membership, and stop appearing as "Guest" then we'll know your posts are your own!

Nigel - oh go on then. Is this better?

Sorcha (and any aficiondos of Welsh)- got it now, from Nigel's description . . . except . . . when I was singing music from Georgia (Eastern Europe) we managed to pick out at least three different ways that they make that sound. Still, now I'm nearer to it and I'm a mudcatter too.

Yeaay!

Seems like every time I post, the thread stops! I already feel that I'm becoming "Grayd - killer of threads". Nobody going to say hulloh and welcome to the mudcats then? Where's the welcome wagon?
