My Aisling: they are people, too!

they are people, too!

I was rather pleased to watch the video below. Yes, it is a tad foul. But freedom of speech, right? Guess not, seems her employer, Air America, has suspended this commentator for commenting. So very odd, methinks. Calling pub presidents and vice presidents racists is ok, but taking Herself's name in vain warrants censure. Funny (pathetic) standard.

Anyway, enjoy ...

Wise words: Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered "five," Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.

Aisling: (Irish: aislinn; pronounced ASH-ling): A vision poem.

In an aisling, the island of Ireland appears to the poet in a vision in the form of a woman, sometimes young and beautiful, sometimes old and haggard. This female figure is generally referred to in the poems as An Spéirbhean (the sky-woman).
