I've been told (OK, Mud's the one that told me this, so it may be embellished a bit) that for some time during the seventies he was involved in the Roller Derby, a career in which he earned the fortune that now allows him to write the radical songs he is now famous for.

I did a little searching on the 'net and found a couple of photos of Mudboy Slim in his Roller Derby days...

Mudboy in his early days, (notice the baby fat) wore the #36 jersey of the Richmond Renegades. Shortly after this photo was taken, Mud went on a diet and was soon traded to...

...the Petersburg Patriots, where he became a star member of the team, and it is with the Patriots that Mud made his vast fortune; which allowed him the small indulgence of buying the house of his dreams...

...which he shares with his better half, Mrs. Mud and all the little Mudrats.

That's all I have to offer of Mudboy's history for now. More to come when I can make it up...

Wasn't he the one, who when we were on the White House tour asked the guide if he could go to the bathroom.

If I recall when the guide told him "Of course" ol Mud just stood there awhile and mumbled 'thank you'.

WOW!!! The roller derby stuff is *very* helpful. And the photograph of the MudCave is extremely useful. (If only to help all the CPAC attendees find their way to his house, where he's graciously agreed to host a big CPAC party!)

I refer you to post 71. Our biography of Mudboy is shaping up nicely!! (And don't worry, Mudboy takes jokes very well, it will all be in food fun.) I do think my final write-up is probably going to have to include a link to this thread so everyone can see the solid journalistic/investigative techniques we employed.

So everything's going nicely, I insist. Then why am I nervous about what will happen when Mudboy next logs on? ;)

I have independently verified that your photo does in fact reveal the MudCave through a Bob Woodward journalistic technique of telepathy. I was able, by concentrating and focussing, to read Condi's mind as she watched television alone and discern from her thoughts the MudCave's location.

I think it's very important for all my information to be cross-checked so we can be as accurate as the New York Times.

I've actually been to MUD's house. Here is a view from across the yard

I can't believe you tracked down those photos, my FRiend...thanks fer the memories!!

LOL and FReegards...MUD

BTW...I reckon it's time to get the truth out in front of the rumors about my exotic dancing days. Back when I was in college in the early-80's, I worked summers and Christmas breaks strip-teasing fer Ladies' Night at the FireHouse Tavern on Laskin Road in Virginia Beach. Naturally, I ended up getting hired for a number of private shows fer batchelorette parties and whatnot. There are those who contend that I took this avocation a step further, but I am ON RECORD as stating that I never accepted one penny for any services I may have provided fer my patrons in the privacy of an adjoining room...all that was "on the house"...LOL!!

Furthermore, I quit this very lucrative burlesque kick years before meeting MissuzMUD and the rumors that she met me while I was "on the runway" are unfounded and mean-spirited.
