daaaaahh dah-dah peanut butter...

There is a pipe-and-drum corps outside my window playing "Scotland the Brave". They're pretty good, too! That's a kind of music which is 100x better live. Some of the lady pipers are only slightly bigger than their instruments. Again today, it's sunny and warm and a perfect day for this... makes it hard to go back inside and do work. (So I'm blogging about it instead.)

I'm unavoidably reminded of the Northwind Highlanders from the Battletech universe. They had a habit of advancing on an enemy while playing bagpipe music over the external audio of their tartan-enameled mechs, and marching the 20- to 100-ton machines in lockstep to the drumbeat. Many an opponent quailed and ran away when faced with this :)
