Thanks for the links Asa.
Hopefully it won't take to long to memorize stuff.

lol - hey, just buy lots of books, that way you don't have to memorize as much stuff. :) (I have a terrible memory - but hundreds and hundreds of books. As me a question and give me fifteen minutes and I sound like one smart individual ;) )

[Wodening]

Also Miercinga Ríce (http://www.ealdriht.org) formerly the Angelseaxisce Ealdriht which is one of the larger sites out there, and perhaps the largest Anglo-Saxon Heathen site.
