Alrighty, onto the next one. *cracks knuckles*  This is going to be for AgentBabyCakes. :)

And Caro said her grandma was from Kentucky, so darn it! I'm doing this song.


(For the quarter Irish)

(And just an extra bit for Kos.)

This may be a little random but I decided to acknowledge my watchers with different songs from/or mention their country/province. So I think I'll better look up quite a bit of American songs.


So let's get started! First is for Iglybo who was my first watcher. The song title explains the rest :bademoticon: 


 Yeah this is cheesy, I know..

Here are some Aussie songs to celebrate. :)


What makes this funny is I'm representing this country in the model UN. :bademoticon:

Why on Earth?

2 min read
Tell me. Why on earth would you send a man up in a spaceship when you found EXACTLY 203 anomalies in it? This really happened, on April 24, 1967 Yuri Gagarin's (First man to orbit in Space) close friend Vladimir Komarov  was sent up into space in Soyuz 1, orbited exactly 13 times (half conscious and vomiting) only to come crash landing down back to earth. He was conscious until impact.  All that was left of him was a charred black mass, you couldn't even tell it was human. Vladimir volunteered himself in Yuri's place to go up, he knew the trip would end badly. I've just recently found information about supposed Soviet Cosmonauts who were sent up and died in space, two Italian brothers recorded Soviet launches with their own recording equipment. They heard Laika the dog's heartbeat as well as a few more disturbing things. A morse code signal from space that was fading off into the distance (the message was SOS to the entire world), an audio recording of what sounds like a man struggling to breathe and his racing heartbeat. (A Cardiologist friend of theirs listened to it it. It was discovered it was someone suffering from a heart attack and approaching his last breath.) And possibly the most controversial and most famous, a woman saying she was burning up and saw flames outside her window as she was landing. (To anyone who says it's a fake, there was more to the Soviet Union than Russia, and wouldn't you make grammatical errors if you were panicking?) And there's a reason why she didn't sound panicky, Astronauts/Cosmonauts are psychologically trained and chosen to be able to handle a thing like a space launch without freaking out or breaking under pressure. The female cosmonaut was trained to remain calm.

(This subject has interested me enough to write a future book series about it. It's still in the rough draft and development stages right now.)

Folk songs #1

This is Oro se do bheatha bhaile (I retyped bheatha two times. try typing Irish when you normally would be speaking with an Ulster dialect accent like me.) which translates to oh, you are welcome home. The song is about the great pirate Queen Grace O'Malley of County Mayo and Queen of Connaught. It was partically famous with the Fenian Rebels during the War of Independence in the  20's. Hope you enjoy!
