I would assume they have some choice as to whether or not they attend. But it does seem like we never have a chance to let time heal the wound. And this year is bad enough with this freak down in FL. And mark my words next year will be unbearable.
“I wonder how bagpipes were invented. I mean, who thought that out?
“I know! I’ll get a bag and attach pipes to it and squeeze the bag, which will produce an unimaginably dissonant sound. And we will convince people it is music. That would be great!””
well how did the drums get invented?
Oh I know I will take an animal hide and stretch it over this here bowl and bang away on it
Haven’t lived there, Dave but been many many times. I really love Chicago, but I’m a coast person by nature. Like being near the Ocean. People are really nice though, and the men are totally up my alley.
No, it’s true. My brother actually does play the bagpipes. he’s a teacher in Albany, NY.
ENY: Thank God for all our ancestors
(I guess though that drums won out over the bagpipes as a better musical invention)

OK, is this a joke, right? And you play the “flute” huh? Har de har har. I like your Sunset Blvd reference much better!
I’ve somehow missed that movie after all these years, Cobble. Worthy of giving it a go? I hate really gay campy shit, though.
