Inscription on a tombstone: "I TOLD YOU I WAS SICK!"

"Now here's my secret", said the fox, "it is very simple. It is only with ones heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is invisible to the eye."
("The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery)
"The soul would have no rainbow, if the eye had no tears." (Native American Proverb)
Beethoven, Ludwig van (1770-1827) "Friends applaud, the comedy is over."

Unavoidably Detained by the World
"Irishness is not primary a question of birth or blood or language; it is the condition on being involved in the Irish situation, and usually of being mauled by it."-Conor Cruise O'Brien
It's all fun and games until somebody loses an eye, Then it's a sport!

The Scots of course insist that the pipes produce music. But the point is after all not too important. For those who love them, the pipes can evoke more vividly than any other instrument, high emotion, they can inspire valor, and tell of tragic tales of battles long ago. They can call forth merriment or sentiment. It does not matter what the sound is called, those who are deaf to its merits would not understand anyway.

Robert L. Ripley's Museum was so popular that people were going in and not coming out, to solve this problem he posted signs with an arrow that said, "See The Egress" well people followed the sigh to a large door and there wasa a sign that proclaimed "Egress" so they weht through the door. Well as most learned people know Egress means exit!
Proving the adage of P.T. Barnum, "There is a sucker born every minute."

When in France head back to Scotland to defend against the Romans and their ways. The Romans are the Borg Collective and their religion was used to assimilate the world. Resistance was futile because the Scots were too busy with fighting each other to fight the Romans.

But the Scots out lived the Romans!
