Won't solve your problem but it's a very funny story in the book "To Hell and Back."<br /><br />Also read an amusing story about combat pipers in the Pacific. Can't remember the book title, May have been Russell Davis' "Marine at War." Anyway, the punch line was that Japanese soldiers would go straight to seppuku rather than endure the agon of listening to bagpipes.<br /><br />Great post!PrairieAdventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466447251827774900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-6638611754203579142017-04-04T06:18:22.378-07:002017-04-04T06:18:22.378-07:00I think Mrs J is getting tired of their antics.

She doesn't think "cute" involves disturbing things we don't want disturbed. She'd shoot the masked bandit without blinking (using my Mark II, I would hope; she carries a .357 SP101, & that would leave her quite a mess to clean up. I think she knows this). She's pretty good with possums, & she already hates coons (they kill the chickens, which cuts into her beloved eggs over easy).<br />--Tennessee BuddAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-82565495457098362852017-04-03T19:13:48.783-07:002017-04-03T19:13:48.783-07:00Good Music, like Good Wine, is made all over the w...Good Music, like Good Wine, is made all over the world.juvathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096708575138552532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-49077903372021121992017-04-03T16:53:18.072-07:002017-04-03T16:53:18.072-07:00Nice!Nice!OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-62383438234352011782017-04-03T16:01:05.961-07:002017-04-03T16:01:05.961-07:00If you tire of Scottish bagpipes, you might try Ga...If you tire of Scottish bagpipes, you might try Galician.<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=631-b07omIUWell Seasoned Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670165728759453075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-45396352503520158272017-04-03T14:27:17.254-07:002017-04-03T14:27:17.254-07:00Could be, could be!Could be, could be!juvathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096708575138552532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-5131152778958902792017-04-03T13:32:47.424-07:002017-04-03T13:32:47.424-07:00"Mishka, Moshka and Mushka" Sounds like ..."Mishka, Moshka and Mushka" Sounds like your naming computer was hacked by the Russians!<br /><br />(Durn spelling compulsion!)Mike aka Proofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08931553845065187278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-56134494867710271802017-04-03T12:02:25.755-07:002017-04-03T12:02:25.755-07:00Or....Now that I've had a second to think abou...Or....Now that I've had a second to think about it, how about I drop the raccoon at the people who dropped off the kittens house.
