Ponder O'Nocturnal Blarney Kissers?

    Be it thus foretold...

    When very young I bent over backwards and kissed The Stone. Suddenly a FLASH occurred in the Cork sky, making Blarney Castle alight!

    The prophet Jeremiah 16:1 appeared for a shimmering moment, proclaiming that someday the block of BLUE stone thus kissed would herald my name on boards.ie, and that I would inherit the gift of gab, talking a lot of Blarney for a high post count on boards in the Elizabethan sense, which made Cormac Teige Maccarthaigh smile from his grave.

    As later years passed, the Lia Fáil stone of destiny giveth me the BLUE of my boards.ie name, only to be followed by LAGOON after having crossed the pond to live upon the Pacific waters of one three years past.

    I posteth here upon the Nocturnal Forum, knowing full well that only those dwellers of the night that suffer from sleep deprivation could ponder the meaning of a Blarney kiss thus taken, while at the same time shareth a lot of Blarney in response.

    I've never kissed the blarney stone & I too am a chatterbox.
    I have however licked geology

    Blue Lagoon has been licking the Blarney Stone again. There is a particular type of fungus that grows on Blarney castle walls, including the stone in question, which can induce a heightened euphoric state, hallucinations, and an unbelievable urge to talk.

    The cure is simple: step into a lonely sheep field at the stroke of midnight whilst lashing your back with nettles. Then scream at the moon, tear out some grass and eat it (only the young shoots, mind).

    Alternatively, they say that if you can lick your own elbow, then you may have serious neck/spinal injuries, and should seek treatment immediately.

    It was probably Jer, the guards have spoken to him about that a few times.
    ... which made Cormac Teige Maccarthaigh smile from his grave.

    I was at Blarney Castle for the first time ever last Halloween looking for ghosts actually... It's why I missed out on the Halloween beers.

    I like caves underneath the castle... they have bats.

    Ahhhhhh, but ye missed a key phrase and a part of Irish myth? I doth sayeth:
    ...talking a lot of Blarney... on boards in the Elizabethan sense, which made Cormac Teige Maccarthaigh smile from his grave.
    Knowing me a bit too well, Jeremiah 16:1 would also be smiling at your comment methinks?;)

    Now for randylonghorn's Newtonian metaphor! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Bheith ag déanamh na bhfolachán!:cool:

    The DooM would be honoured, nay, jubilant, to have one of the original Nocturnals bless this humble forum. :)

    What is this obsession with people having me flashing? I've never flashed, nor am I likely to.

    However, I would like to be like Captain Flash from Blackadder.

    "She's got a tongue like an electric eel, and she likes the taste of a man's tonsils!"-eloquent, yet simple.





    Why is it that people talk Blarney (town in County Cork)? What if I wanted to talk Newtwopothouse (village in County Cork)? Or talk Spink (town in Co Laois)?

    Or...Muff (Co Donegal)?:D

    Just because you use a permanent marker to write "Blarney stone" on your keester, doesn't mean that anybody will be fooled.:pac:

    Til the glorious dawn, my brother Sdoom-who-walks-in-the-sunlight.
