Bagpiper Bob
Introducing my Uncle Bob to the rabble.
Image goes clickety pop.
Last week I traveled to Albuquerque to attend my nephews wedding. My nephew had always wanted a Scotland wedding, but was unable to travel. So my Uncle Bob decided to bring Scotland to my nephew. Being a bit of a clown (literally, for years he used to go to children's hospitals dressed as a clown), he made a 'costume' for the rehearsal dinner, including PVC bagpipes (he called it a multiple pipe kazoo) and a kilt. So, to the tune of Scotland the Brave, out he marched. It was quite the scene and lots of hearty laughs.
And before of you ask, he called his creation the MacLaney tartan!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
