Although a Jew, I was baptized a few days after birth, which explains why fairies never stole me from my parents.

I linked to you from TT Ziggurat and the 13 Tallest Towers

Very interesting! I’m familiar with some Irish mythology, but I also learned some new facts reading your list! I always found it odd that female mermaids were beautiful but the males were ugly! Thanks for sharing.
Happy T13.

The Banshees are a group of hooligans from Ohio who play paint ball in the dark and catch grapes with their mouths (from mouth to mouth to mouth). Oh, sorry, that’s the only Banshees I know. And half of them became pastors. LOL. Here’s to cooked cabbage and that really tender meat I overcook every year.

Hoping I can comment before it kicks me off again.
Well, aren’t you the researcher! Just a fount of knowledge! I really enjoyed reading it!

BSC: I don’t know how much of a researcher I am. I didn’t dig that deep. I started out thinking I’d do Gaelic myths - but the post lead another way. lol

My blog is kicking ppl off again?? I thought I had that fixed

Thursday Thirteen: Contradictory Proverbs…

#83

Look before you leap.
He who hesitates is lost.
If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.
Don’t beat your head against a brick wall.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Out of sight, out of mind
Never put off until tomorro…
