The title of my LiveJournal is in Irish, and it means "Three speeches that are better than silence." There's also "Three silences that are better than speech," but I'm not what you'd call real quiet. Those three speeches, by the way, are ochán ríg do chath, sreth immais, and molad iar lúag. That is, inciting a king to battle, spreading knowledge, and praise after reward. The title of my Friends page is, in its entirety, "Trí búada téiti: ben cháem, ech maith, cú lúath." Three glories of a gathering: a beautiful wife, a good horse, a swift hound.
I'm currently an independent scholar. My current areas of interest include the law systems of the Celtic socieities of the British Isles (Irish, Manx, Briton, and Welsh) during the early middle ages (ca. 500-900) and Anglo Saxon society up to 1066.
Additionally, thanks to
carmeloicons for the beautiful Jane Austen at The Movies mood theme which was used on this journal until July 2008. I'm currently using a spiffy Geoffrey Tennant (of Slings & Arrows fame) theme by myhappyface. My lovely layout is courtesy of midenianscholar. You can find it and many other layouts in her layout community, 
scholarslayouts.
If you make an appointment,holly_quinn might tell you what, if any, relation she has to me. Maybe. But probably not. She's a busy lady. The first opening is the day after never.
Last, and certainly not least, given various problems here at LJ, I am beginning to migrate over to DreamWidth. In fact, unless I'm specifically posting to a community here or commenting on an entry here, I'm writing there and crossposting here.
