That expression could be on Rammel's list.

Kelly

Hi Bubble
Who is going to ask Rammel if we can include the saying?

:)

Kelly

so_P_bubble

It is already included.  Trust Rammel!

Kelly

Kelly, does your three-legged symbol represent Manx origin?

PatH welcome back!  You've been gone a long time. Now, if you can track down Joan for us we'll be all back together again.

It's the last week of the academic year here at Fanshawe College and I bid my student
friends and colleagues farewell with some music by Brahms. There's a recycled work by
Tchaikovsky, a reconstructed work by Sullivan and a grossly misnamed work by Mendelssohn. Of special interest is a cinematic soundtrack from a disc that was voted the "Album Of The
Year" in 1985
We were discussing last week the music in the westerns of old, so I featured a couple on today's show.

Kelly, does your three-legged symbol represent Manx origin?

Originally the "triskele" was - in a way similar to the swastika -a symbol of the Sun, the Seat of Power and Life. The symbol was also used by some Norse Kings. It is also the symbol of Sicily since the days of the Magna Graecia expansion into the Mediterranean.

Locally there is  another interpretation: the Isle of Man has to keep three other Nations at a distance:Ireland, Scotland and England. But that's probably an example of modern re-interpretation.

My morning romp through Project Guternberg produced this Scifi short story containing short "bios" of galactic composers.  https://www.gutenberg.org/files/51622/51622-h/51622-h.htm

No way to download on the computer???

MarsGal

Bubble, you should be able to click on the Epub or kindle listings. Chose the one with images for this one. It will download to the download folder or where ever you have your computer set for downloads, then you can copy it to another folder if you want. Usually the downloaded file will be a number with .azw, .epub or .mobi behind it. If you have an iPad, I think it sees .epub, not sure about .mobi. The Kindle app will read .azw and .mobi.  Check to see if your reading app supports .epub. Is the free Kindle app for your computer available there? I don't think you need to have an Amazon account to download one, but I could be wrong. The html file is for if you want to read it online.


so_P_bubble

It went to a google box ...somewhere?  I don't know anything about the other alternatives: drop box or cloud. It did not download on the computer :(

MarsGal

Interesting. Things must be set up differently for other countries.

Kelly

Good morning MarsGal
