It’s the Wild Geese in Me

It’s been a few days since I last indulged a whim for pointless quiz-taking. I got these from Lynn:

You’re Ireland!
Mystical and rain-soaked, you remain mysterious to many people, and this
makes you intriguing.  You also like a good night at the pub, though many are just as
worried that you will blow up the pub as drink your beverage of choice.  You’re good
with words, remarkably lucky, and know and enjoy at least fifteen ways of eating a potato.
 You really don’t like snakes.

the Blue Pyramid

If you’re wondering where the title came from: The Wild Geese were that generation of young Irish Catholic men who fled the island for the continent following its conquest by William of the Orange. They settled in Catholic continents after serving stints as mercenaries. Research suggests that I may have Wild Geese ancestors who settled in the Val d’Aosta.

That’s the autonomous region in Italy, not the town in Georgia.
