11849. alistairConnor - 10/28/2004 11:36:53 PM You really need to get yourself some metamucil.
No idea what it is, but it's a great line! 11850. thoughtful - 10/28/2004 11:50:31 PM No, no, the strippers are from i felta thi.
AC, metamucil is a dietary fiber supplement, with the expected affects on ones bowels, if that helps. 11851. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 10/28/2004 11:57:20 PM 
11852. wonkers2 - 10/29/2004 12:12:24 AM I hope thoughtful wasn't implying that the baleful Swede's personality is anal retentive. Shame on you, thoughtful! 11853. arkymalarky - 10/29/2004 12:26:31 AM Bob loves Bob's Red Mill meusli.
11854. Ms. No - 10/29/2004 12:46:45 AM "Smooth texture"
Is that going in or coming out?
I'll keep with apples and oats, thanks. 11855. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 10/29/2004 5:57:51 AM HAHAHAHA! 11856. alistairconnor - 10/29/2004 10:47:00 AM Either way, I prefer chunky. 11857. Macnas - 10/29/2004 11:09:13 AM Just so long as it happens I reckon. 11858. PelleNilsson - 10/29/2004 12:19:34 PM Macnas
Before you left to do battle with your contractor you asked me to write something about Swedish sail, which I did. It is not much, but what there is is here. 11859. Macnas - 10/29/2004 12:37:51 PM Pelle
Thanks for that. It's almost as brief as the history of Irish sail, for some reason I thought the tradition of the longboat men would persevere in some form through the ages, but alas no.
Same with the horned helmets I suppose.
11860. alistairconnor - 10/29/2004 1:17:03 PM And what about Brendan and his curragh?
I suspect there was no specifically Irish sailing tradition for about a millenium after that. 11861. Macnas - 10/29/2004 1:37:04 PM You're forgetting about Grainne O'Mally. 11862. PelleNilsson - 10/29/2004 2:09:40 PM And Erskine Childers. 11863. Macnas - 10/29/2004 2:12:39 PM Not to mention Feilim. 11864. PelleNilsson - 10/29/2004 2:23:24 PM Would that be this fellow?
Feilim's boat went off to Gola,
Feilim's boat with Feilim in it,
Feilim's boat went off to Gola,
Feilim's boat with Feilim in it. 11865. Macnas - 10/29/2004 2:27:16 PM And there I thought I had you stumped.
The english translation should be Tory though, so I'll have to deduct a point I'm afraid. 11866. PelleNilsson - 10/29/2004 2:48:47 PM I googled. Here. 11867. Macnas - 10/29/2004 3:10:51 PM You know, I'd forgotten about the first verse.
It's not often sung here anymore, and if you heard it you'd know why. The last few verses usually suffice.
And even at that.... 11868. Magoseph - 10/29/2004 6:04:25 PM Hey, Mac, if you're still around, have a nice weekend.
