Spoken Irish Gaeilge and spoken Scottish Gaelic is very similar. I can understand Scots Gaelic if I watch Scottish TV. The languages have differences though, but they sound very similar.

That's as I came to understand it. I used to read under an author who favored Gaelic, his primary character would use the phrase Cead mile failte, and i understood it from that, spoken in the "language of the kings". Funny how two languages can be separate, but if you speak one you can understand the other.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!
