Everything you want to know about Cattle raiding, water rights, grazing rights, oppressive governments and misguided people.

Provides a nice break from the current Bundy news cycle monopoly.

Táin Bó is the base of several Irish stories involving cattle and politics, of which Táin Bó Cúalnge is but one, 'The Cattle Raid of Cooley'.

Read it many years ago - the Thomas Kinsella translation.

"Why were the Pangs of the Men of Ulster? It is soon told!"

Great stuff!

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Ping.

[Usagi_yo]

Is that a ping list or just a private ping. Cause Noumenon is a really cool name.

[DuncanWaring]

Private ping to another Son of the Auld Sod.

Thanks. I’m still trying to grasp nomenon part of (phe)nomenon.
