Created by coming in the back door (http://207.103.108.99.threads.cfm), this could be the Tavern where all wear the "Guest" nametag. Just think, wasn't it so, once upon a time, that all Mudcat was a vast guestland? Have one on me, for old time's sake-- since even Bert would be a Guest, we can't charge this party to his card per usual!

My toast: To Mudcat, and all the many hardworking servers that have given their lives, for us!

well - if we can't put the tab on Bert's Card - who is paying? I mean, sure, I''m happy to come in and drink and eat and make use of the facilities - but you expect me to pay? it's the internet! It's not real! You want me to shell out cash for a virtual tavern?

oh - and is there anyone willing to burn me a set of the mudcat CD's? I just can't afford them.

On the other hand, nobody can bill us, either, cos we are all GUESTS, heh heh.

So set 'em up Joe (or whoever you are). Make mine a Guinness (_)

A toast - to Mudcat, and all who sail in her!

The place looks almost the same as it did 11 days ago, with only a light covering of dust, but what is that awful smell?

Oh no!! Looks like someone locked up and left a couple of turkeys in here! I wonder who that was?

Think I'll give the beer a miss. The Guinness should be all right - yes, that'll do nicely. Might as well pour a few in case someone else comes along (_) (_) (_) (_)

Roger,

Regarding your post yesterday morning:

"I am a Backdoor man
I am a backdoor man
The men don't know but the lil' girls understan'"

By coincidence, I'm listening to Howlin Wolf CD now!

Love it!

Azizi, I also love the Bessie Smith version.
People said I sing like Wolf. "Howlin' Wolf?" I asked. "No, Virginia Woolf" they replied. "But she couldn't sing the blues" I said.
"Exactly!" they replied!

Since this place is virtual in the first place, and since this place only exists in its true virtuality when the main Mudcat server is down in the second place, is there a chance that there might be some good beer...not that Guinness crap that usually comes to the States in a soopertanker last used to haul crude oil? How about a Kiltlifter? There is virtually everything, you say? Yum!!

Gimme some sulphuric acid, barkeep, that's had a plug of chawin' tobakker soaked in it along with some gunpowder and white arsenic and a tad bit of strychnine.

It may have started out smelling better in here, but it's a marginally toxic environment now. And I read the earlier posts--I just can't quite get my brain around that "buttcandle." Yeachth.

More o' the same, barkeep, but hike the ph on the acid. That last bit musta been nearly 7.0. And toss some nitroglycerin into -- it needs a bigger kick. And couldya have the somebody check the mountain lion I rode in on? She needs raw meat and "servicing".
