I wonder if the RIAA will look into WHO OWES them royalties for playing music on the military front lines.

Even better: maybe they'll send some of their goons to take on those characters in Fallujah who've been downloading all the songs they wanted from Napster.

...but c'mon! ABH is a classic in terms of annoyance.

Yep, ABH is certainly that!

(I was really just givin' the "rest of the story" for lurkers/posters)

Message: "Send in the Pig."

Hehhehheh...you DO know what the bladders of the best Scots' bagpipes are made of, don't you? Now the ones still remaining in Fallujah are in for it!

1st Sgt. Dwanyne Farr from Detroit Mich. plays the bagpipes in Fallujah, Iraq (news - web sites) Thursday, April 15, 2004. Farr brought the Scottish wind instrument on deployment to wartorn Iraq to bolster the morale of his troops from the 1st Battalion 5th Marine Regiment, currently fighting in Fallujah.

I'd prefer Wagner's Flight of the Valkyrie right before an assault.

Per post above: Almost. First, the Wagner.

Then, Let them know what's coming to them

Yes bagpipes are a nice touch, but what would they think of the steel drum?

I'm Henry the eighth, I am
Henry the eighth, I am, I am
I got married to the widow next door
She's been married seven times before
And every one was an Henry - Henry
She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam - no Sam
I'm her eighth old man, I'm Henry
Henry the eighth, I am

Second verse, same as the first

Reminds me of the alcohol and pot enhanced karaoke my neighbors down the street were singing *cough* during a certain power outage we had here.
Wish I'd thought to record it at the time, it was priceless stuff.

Bump!
