At random: "Without courage, you might as well not be in it. You’ve got to have courage--moral courage, physical courage--and honor. Honor means telling the truth even when it might not be to your advantage" Retired Capt. Charles W. Rush Jr. (85), Navy Cross recipient, when asked to give advice to Chiefs and Junior Officers in today's submarine service.

These are bagpipes: I understand the inventor of the
bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant,
asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made
sound never equaled the purity the sound achieved by the pig.

Who could argue with the logic of Alfred Hitchcock. However, to solve the problem the Scots turned the pig's hide into a nice bag and the rest of the pig into bangers and a lesser known form of Haggis. Since that time Scottish pigs have learned to behave themselves and not try to imitate us pipers while we're making that wonderful sound of "skirling the pipes"
