You also have to watch out when stepping over electric fence wires or barbed wire fences Robert!

When I was a kid ( about 12 ) I was told a different definition of this quip that I had never questioned. So when Mark directed it toward me, ( my definition ) I was a bit taken aback Racer. Then, on finding out the true meaning, I was both relieved AND chuffed !!!

Anyone have opinions about cremation? I think I'd prefer that over conventional burial? My family is not in favor, but in this very changed world it makes sense to me. I see so many cemeteries unkept and deserted, and in a short time, relatively speaking, no one remembers the dead anyhow. Saves money, less hassle, and less prolonged grief. What do you think?
Cremation. Or, if it's an option when the time comes, promession. Seems to make it easier to handle the toxic bits of me

No matter, I don't want to be a hassle for the ones after me.

I don't care about style or horses, but I do want Bert playing his pipes so people won't be sticking around long enough to start telling all the bad stuff they know about me.
I was more thinking of having Bert play at my funeral to make people weep

You all really do seem to have something against bagpipes.

So the bagpipes create both anger and tears? Very versatile! If Bert can hook up with this Kazoo player, WWIII is guaranteed!


Three AlkaSeltzers didn't help after I watched that....

Wait.

What?

A Texan, from Texas, who doesn't care about horses? Why that's just un-Texan!

Are you sure you are Texan?

I have nothing against bagpipes. In fact, i think that the great highland pipes may be the greatest invention ever-- weaponized music. Honestly, it's a dream of mine to learn to play bagpipes.

Best get started sooner rather than later, not a very easy instrument to learn...
