"I've got the most scathingly brilliant idea!" Hayley Mills uses that line multiple times in the movie The Trouble With Angels. I do not claim to be "brilliant." Occasionally I have something to say and I've decided that this is the place where I will say it. That's all; nothing more, nothing less.
what's in a name: Niamh: daughter of Manannan Mac Lir, the sea god of Celtic mythology.She was the queen of Tir na n-Og, the Land of Eternal Youth. She fall in love with the great bard Oisin (Ossian) and she went to Ireland across the sea on her magic horse, Embarr ("imagination") who could run on the waves, to take Oisin with her. Aeval,the Fairy Queen of Munster, who held a midnight court to determine if husbands were satisfying their wives' sexual needs. Nimue an original 'Lady of the Lake' from Arthurian legend.
