Summer Solstice

Mood: celebrating
Listening to: the pogues

I tell you, us Gods have supped some stuff since the spring Equinox. We have hardly been sober.

So no blogging because it all comes out like klhfgdsdgh ljhfk dufffijh dunsh. Which makes sense to us but not you.

Just so you keep us in mind until Niamh of the Yellow Hair manages to stop danging, put her tits away and write her contribution, we suggest you get in on the celebrations by checking out The Making And Unmaking Dance

Back soon with Niamh's blog and some advice from Dagda on offerings.

A Song For The World Cup

 

America does not really get the World Cup. The fact that Americans insist on calling football "soccer" is probably a lot to do with that. Football is a man's game where to kick the BALL with your FOOT. Geddit.

OK, there aree some instances where players have kicked an opponents balls with their foot. Such behaviour is regrettable, but these things happen. Its a funny old game.

One of the great things about the world cup finals which happen every four years is the utterly silly songs that are issued to raise morale. Europeans long ago discovered that as Brazil win nearly every time the best way to raise morale is by habing a laugh. So the songs get silier and sillier.

As America does not really do silly the Gods of the Tuatha de Danaans have taken pity on them. To help Americans join in the spirit of The World Cup we have revanpred an old Engl;and supporters song. Find the lyrics and links to an audio and a video download at Vindaloo on Gather.com

Find out more about America's World Cup team - and this time make sure these guys get a proper welcome home. Last time after fighting their way through as complete underdogs to the semi - final, there arrival home was totally unheralded.
