I still laugh at my husband when it comes to colors. He told me once that mauve would do well in decorating a room and it wasn't even close to the colors we needed. Not that he really cared what the color mauve looked like.
Now children at an early age are taught to distinguish more colors. A box of crayons went from what 8 to 64 now?

"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

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.

One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others.

We all know Murphy's Law:- "What can go wrong will go wrong at the most inconvienient moment". Well Chekhovs' Law states emphatically "That Murphy was a G--Damn Optimist".
