If this is the song I think it is (the filk of 'Marvellous Little Toy'
or something like that, sung by Val Doonican) then I've been looking for
it as well.  Also the Viking Axe SCA version:

"It went swish when it swung, and thud when it hit
It never did stand still.
A Viking Axe was what it was and it was meant to kill!"

Or something like that...

SS> music like
SS> "Enya".Particularly tha names of singers,groups,etc.

       Try Clannad.  The Lead singer is Enya's older sister.  The albums
Legend and Magical Ring would be closest to Enya's style.  Later albums tend
to be a little more "Pop" though they still have much of the same feel and are 
well worth having.  Earlier albums are more traditional but again still have
some of the same feel.  If you like Clannad you might also try an Irish group
called Relitivity.  If you can find that sort of stuff where you are.  It's
pretty tough to get here in Tulsa.  If you are looking for more New Age than
Irish you might try Kitaro.  His new album with Jon Anderson is really good.
What Jon and Vangelis should have been.

Off Centaur obtained permission from the Kipling estate to publish some
still-copyrighted poems in The Westerfilk Collection and Cold Iron.
However, that was 10 years ago, and as I recall, most of the things
we printed were due to go out of copyright within a few years.

Virtually all of Kipling should be out of copyright by now.

My thanks to everyone who answered my question about the "Tibetan
Memory Trick", especially to Stu, who referred me to _The Worlds of
George O. Smith_  I found a copy in the New York Public Library
Research Collection at 5th Avenue and 42d Street and read Smith's
version.  As Stu said, Smith presents it as a test developed by the
military to find people with a good immediate memory.

     "Someone devised a routine in which the memory-filing stunts
went askew because the thing was gummed up with sense and nonsense,
and adjectives that didn't apply, and nouns that did not make liter-
ary sense.  The tester would start with the first line, and the
testee would repeat it.  then the tester would state the second line,
but the testee had to go back to the beginning and run through the
whole, adding that last line at the end.  The number of errors went
down as the score--and I have known only one, a young fellow, who
went through it without once pausing or losing his way:

     "One duck. Two hens. Three squawking geese. Four corpulent
porpoises.  Five Limerick oysters.  Six pairs of Don Alphonso tweez-
ers. Seven hundred Macedonian warriors in full battle array. Eight
golden crowns for the ancient, sacred crypts of Egypt. Nine lymphat-
ic, asthmatic, peripatetic old men on crutches.  Ten revolving helio-
trophes from the Ipsey Wipsy Institute.

     "(I may have slightly misquoted it, because it's been twenty
years.  But any misquotation is honestly slight.)"

I did not have time to read the entire book, but I discovered that it
contained the legendary story "Ratrace", about a man who built a
better mousetrap, so I read that.

"Why is it a legendary story?" ask the eager young neos.  Well, back
when John W. Campbell was editing _Astounding_ he had a policy that
sex and science fiction don't mix.  This policy was enforced by his
editorial assistant, Kay Tarrant, who deleted anything indelicate.
In this story Smith managed to slip an indelicate reference past her.

     "This is better than the original ball-bearing mousetrap."
     "Which."
     Peter grinned.  "The tomcat," he said.

As a matter of fact, the actual wording is more explicit than I had
expected.  When I first read of the story in a fanzine the author
said that Smith had referred to the hero's tomcat as the original
ball-bearing mousetrap, in which case the identification of the
animal as a tomcat and the reference to him being the original ball-
bearing mousetrap could have been separated by several sentences or
even paragraphs.

Still more poetry.  This is another SCA piece. 


                               Walking


          Walking, ever walking,
          always walking without stopping,
          Walking onward without rest
          Our hearts pounding in our chest.
          Though we're choking on the dust
          We walk on because we must,
          Walking onward ever onward ever more.

          Together hand in hand
          We came to free the Holy Land.
          In the land of our Lords birth
          Moslem blood would stain the earth.
          Then finally came the night,
          With their sentry fires in sight,
          Fired with faith we'd face the foe upon the morn'.

          At last! The break of day.
          With our troops in close array.
          We moved boldly towards the foe.
          The wrath of God the soon would know.
          With our faith to lead us on,
          In the early light of Dawn.
          We did battle for the glory of our Lord.

          Well the fighting it was fierce.
          Many a man was cruelly pierced.
          Many a man in that cruel strife,
          Was deprived of limb and life.
          And when victory seemed most near
          They attacked us from the rear.
          And God's army soon became a fleeing mob.

          It was barely one in five,
          Of our men escaped alive.
          And the Saracans give chase.
          As tworads the coast we race.
          In the battle fiercly fought
          All our prayers availed us not.
          God gives victory to the strong.  Not the pure.

Jeremy, this came through on the Filk Echo (as you can plainly
see by the headers to this message).  Kindly move along to the
Monty Python Echo, there's a good lad.

If I didn't know you from there, I'd think you were confused.

Of course, I could always wonder if the Filkers want the words
to that loverly Albatross song?  We're pretty sure it's the only
song ever written with Albatross in it.

Until now.
