Would you say a few words about yourself, the name "cuhulin" you choose and why, what interest do you have in the "MP's" and please include your real first name (for some reason I think it was Steve) TIA, Burr A little googling turns up: James Larry Ryan, 1304 Denson Ave Jackson Mississippi 39209 http://www.allaudios.org/detail-11188354.html (on WWW most frequently appears as Larry) ~65 yrs old, Vietnam vet 1964 http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache...=en&lr=lang_en ; former e-mail , sometimes identified himself as "tain" Cuhulin is a variant of Cuchulain. http://www.english.emory.edu/DRAMA/YeatsHawk.html Also Cuchulainn, Cu Chulainn, Cúchulainn, Cú Chulainn Cuchulain is "the usual name of the hero Setanta; son of the god Lug and of Dechtire, and foster-son of Sualtaim (pronounced Cuhulin)". http://vassun.vassar.edu/~sttaylor/Cooley/Names.html A different pronunciation is heard he http://content.answers.com/main/content/img/pron.gif According to BBC, the Irish legend of Cuchulain is: "Brave youngster, fathered by a sky god, chokes dog with ball, changes his name and single handedly faces invading army in war over prize bull. The Irish can tell a good yarn can`t they? This rather simplified, and purposely irreverent summation refers to one of the most famous Celtic heroes of all time: Cuchulain, the hound of Ulster." and... "Tain Bo Cuailnge (Cattle Raid of Cooley) is the oldest vernacular tale in western Europe. It tells the tale of our hero, Cuchulain, fighting off the armies of Queen Maeve of Connacht, over a prize brown bull. " http://www.bbc.co.uk/legacies/myths_..._7/index.shtml Tom |
