I joined the Sift for the privilege to get things I liked in front of your eyes, and I'm really excited finally to be Gold-100 and to promote the hell out of your vids.

Happy to be of service and that is a bittersweet little story, thanks for it

This is one the great songs of my childhood. Growing up, my sister and I had it a bit rough, but we always had our Irish folk songs tapes. She and I would act out all the verses to this song, and then do a little arm in arm jig during the chorus. When I picked up the guitar a few years ago, this was one of the first songs I learned. I can't believe someone Sifted it. You've made my weekend, sir.

Oh sorry, I copied that whole discription from YouTube - Now that I look into it, it probably wasn't too clear to see that it was somebody else's description. I, thank God, do not live anywhere near hurricane/typhoon/ areas. The closest I have gotten was one vacation in North Carolina when a hurricane hit less than a week after me and hubby finished a vacation there. But even tornadoes here in Ohio scare the crap out of me.. Comiung from Finland where the biggest storm might blow down a few trees.

I can't imagine how it would be to actually experience a storm like that! And I so envy you for having a chance to live there, typhoon or not! The whole culture must be so fascinating, the nature.. Asia just seems to magical to me!

Hey, Mint! I just posted a vid about yet another disastrous typhoon in Taiwan, and I noticed your vid from last year about Jangmi. I had no idea you were there for that storm. I was living in Taipei at the time (I even landed into Jangmi on a flight back from Okinawa). Do you live in the area? Did you get to check out Taroko after the winds calmed? In what capacity were you covering the storm? I just came back to the US after a year in Taipei, and this connection to my "old" life is tickling me.
