who are you guys?

I tend to downplay the friendslist thing, but I am really massively curious. Especially to those who have friended me this year... (if I don't obviously know who you are), a la [livejournal.com profile] sdn, tell me 3 cool things about yourself. What drove you here?

[livejournal.com profile] handworn, I am drawn to the ubiquitous nature of Philadelphia in your journal. It is always a good thing to have Friends in Philadelphia.

I'd love to visit Ireland.

One of the weirdest things, though, is that I've been able to find just about nothing published on early modern Irish life-- say, 1600 to 1900-- or the material culture of that era. The Cries of Dublin has been about it, for that era.

If you're looking for nonfiction, there's one called Irish Folk Ways, by E. Estyn Evans, that's pretty good-- it was a textbook for my folklore course.

Thank you! I'll certainly look that up.
