Joke of the Day: Pipers

I’ll admit I’m not a great fan of bagpipes, although they do seem to sound “just right” on certain pieces, like Amazing Grace when performed at a funeral. I really do choke up when I hear it.

But this isn’t about choking up; this is about humor! So with that in mind, here is the Joke of the Day:

Q: Why do bagpipers walk when they play?
A: To get away from the sound.

Keep playing (unless it’s those pipes),  ;-)

Quote of the Day: Alfred Hitchcock

Ah, the wretched bagpipes!  :-)

With apologies to any pipers who may read this, here is the quote of the day…or is it the joke of the day? You be the judge!

Keep playing,
Mark

“I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made sound never equaled the purity of the sound achieved by the pig.”

Alfred Hitchcock
