When will Barr start tying hangman’s knots, instead of playing bag pipes???
Build the gallows....

There once was a fine Scottish lad who left the land of his birth to emigrate to Australia.
A few months later, he wrote home to his mother, quite distraught:
Dear Mother,
Australia is a terrible place! Oh, how I hate it here and wish to be back home!
The people are crazy, yelling at me all the time in a language I cannot understand. My neighbor on one side never stops screaming, and the couple across the hall are fighting constantly. Just yesterday, my upstairs neighbor threw himself out of the third story window and died...
It is just terrible here, and I miss you. But I am following your advice and keeping to myself, and practicing my pipes four hours a day...
Love, Scotty

This must not be Barrs Jewish side of the family. He is very funny and clever. And a bit of a ham...in a good way.Interesting! According to Wikipedia, "Barr's father was born Jewish but later converted to Catholicism, and Barr was raised Catholic. His mother is of Irish ancestry."
I took my critter to a Jewish veterinarian who, incidentally, played the Irish Uilleann pipes. Just liked the sound of 'em.

He's a good solid piper.
"Scotland the Brave" is a standard Level 1 band tune, but he plays it well. His grace notes are clear and his tone is steady.
High marks from this old member of the Atlanta Pipe Band.

Bagpipes are historically played at some funerals, wonder who he has in mind.

He can really play! Im stunned and impressed. They say that mathematical aptitude and musical aptitude are closely linked. Can't prove it by me, as I'm quite musical, but my math skills are strictly visual, like geometry. I guess Barr uses his aptitude to "weigh" the scales of justice!

How does he know if his bagpipes need tuning? There was a piper who was despondent about his piping. He decided to dispose of his pipes, and get some insurance money at the same time. He drove his old beater car to a bad part of town with his pipes in the back seat, and pulled into a 7/11. He rolled down the windows and left the motor running while he went inside for a coffee and a chat with the clerk.
He came out of the store quite some time later, expecting his car to have been stolen long since. To his horror, he discovered that not only was his car still there, but there was a second set of pipes in the back seat!

Different view. Wow, what a room! Imagine the acoustics. I once went to a Bathering of the Clans event at the National Cathedral, with a couple of dozen bagpipe bands in that space. It raised your hair!

That’s a dumb question
All bag pipes need tuning. They are so bad, nobody can say the are ever in tune

Best movie EVAH!!!, with History Of The World (Part 1) running a close second.
If Mel Books were born 50 yrs later than he was we would never have been able to enjoy his comedic genius.
I own his movies and can watch anytime without the insane pc morons editing out every other word.
