A banjo player in a suit is apparently such an unlikely sight that the only explanation for it might be the court setting… with the hapless musician obliged to appear at his court date in full dress.

That’s what I suspected. Here are some more:

But I do like good bluegrass (and no, I don’t think that’s an oxymoron :grin: ; - )

One of my kids’ (and husband’s) favorite songs… probably because we’ve never had any pets to clean up after. :smiley:

And my dad and grandpa…lol–and they were good! Grandpa had a contraption where he could use a harmonica at the same time. I kind of liked trying their accordion, myself, though I wasn’t skilled.

A LOT depends on the quality of the accordion.

The same is true of bagpipes.

How do you make two bagpipers play in tune?

Shoot one of them.

Having known a couple of bagpipers who won regional (e.g. upper midwest U.S.) awards and heard them play together, I have to defend them. I also have to defend them since I have been present at drum-corps competition where instead of the regular marching band there were bagpipes, and as many as three dozen pipers were all playing in tune.

The real method to get two bagpipers to play in tune is to buy them top-notch bagpipes (one of the guys I mentioned, whom I shared a house with, had bagpipes that were worth more than our annual grad school tuition!!).

social media and keyboards are definitely the biggest threat to information literacy. I worry how AI screens the quality of the screened in literature and the info it reads on the internet

Based on that, our family should be fine.

This one was written (by me, excluding the ideas for two of the jokes) too late for the book:

I might be mistaken, but there are some implications regarding YECism in that, right, @jammycakes?

Okay … so I guess that wasn’t really true then?! (still has me going even after the punchline is revealed).
