Anyone a Monty Python fan?

I ran across this site a while back when I was searching for obscure references in Scottish Gaelic.  (Don't ask why - it's a thing I do when I'm bored.)  Omniglot is a fun and slightly nerdy website for language related stuff.  One of the best parts is the page with translations of "My hovercraft is full of eels" into over 70 languages, including Klingon.  The icing on the cake is, of course, the translation into Scottish Gaelic.

Here you go: "Tha mo bhàta-foluaimein loma-làn easgannan."

If you're interested in less esoteric Scottish Gaelic information, Omniglot has a Scottish Gaelic page with lots of great stuff.

Meeting tomorrow, y'all!

Yes, it's true.  It came upon us all faster than expected, but our next meeting is tomorrow!  Same place (Hendershot's coffee) and same time (3 p.m.).  Please join us.  If you want to learn Gaelic, we can teach you.  If you're already a fluent speaker then maybe you would be willing to correct our grammar.  Everyone is welcome.

This time we will have a gaelic language game to play which should be fun and educational at the same time.  Add people and caffeine for hilarity to ensue.
