These jokes are so bad they make me want to sit in a circle and pass around a fifth.

Good evening, Sand...((HUGS))...is MrsSR home now?

Did she get her stuffed animal Zeus hugs?

[trisham]

I should be. :) At our old house, there was a man a few houses away who would sit out on his front step and play his bagpipe for an hour or more at a time. We loved it!

[trisham]

Oh, and my husband is of Scottish descent. :)

My Dad LOVED the pipes.

Once, when he and Mom were vacationing in London, he convinced to to get on a train and go all the way to Edinburgh, sit up on a freezing cold stone castle battlement, and listen to pipers deep into the cold Arctic Night!

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

Are you safely in PA and ready to deliver in the morning?

[trisham]

I’m not Scottish, but I love the pipes. They speak to me in a way that I can’t describe. My husband has visited Scotland three times, and I expect that he will do so many more.

Good evening, Kathy...((HUGS))...MrsSR got home at 1830 last night.

She had a (stuffed animal) Zeus bed mate.

My Dad isn’t Scottish either, but he LOVED the pipes, and would go all the way to Canada to hear the “Black Watch”. He also used to play the recordings, on Giant Altec-Lansing Voice-of-the-theater speakers with 15” woofers and 24” high frequency horns. (each speaker was the size of a washing machine)

The neighbors just “loved” us! hahaha

[trisham]

LOLOLOL! I’ll bet. :)

I don’t know what it is, but perhaps it’s my Irish ancestry. Who knows? :)

[PROCON]

Woo-Hoo Kathy #50!!

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE

 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

“Ah,” he said triumphantly, “you’re going to take the fifth.”

[The Mayor]

Yes, sure am. Thanks!
