Del, Those were 2 rousing songs for this morning. It makes me proud to be a Celt!

We had Cornish Christmas last night.  There is a group of pipers that will make your eyes water when they do Amazing Grace.  Been going down to see those old boys fer years.

OK, speakin' of pipes, there was this bagpiper, he was hired to play at a funeral out in the country.  Well he got lost and by the time he found the cematary, everyone was gone but the grave diggers.  They were just gettin' ready to fill in the grave.

The piper went over anyway, looked into the open grave, looked down at the concrete vault inside and then started to play "Amazing Grace.  Well this brought tears to the eyes of the grave diggers.  As the piper was headed back to his car, one of the grave diggers said, "I've been puttin' in septic tanks for 30 years and I never had that happen before." ::)

That's a cute one.

When my daughter died my father in law hired a fiddle player to do that song at the service.  A month and a half later I took my other two daughters to the Chistmas thing and the pipers were walking up the street to get a beer or a shot and they stopped right in front of us and started playing it.  Like they knew.  It was cool.

Leo, John Prine didn't take any credit for the song I found out, so Steve could get all the royalties, most likey so Steve could afford treatments for his leukemia which took him in 84.
