Apparently my dogs had been barking and were keeping him awake. I informed him that he did not need to use profanity and that I would bring them inside so he could sleep. I had not heard them barking because I was in a deeply medicated sleep. I went to the backyard to find out why they were barking. Turns out there was somebody in the neighbors backyard trying to steal his lawn mower. When I shined my flashlight on him he jumped the chain link fence and ran right past my neighbor. My neighbor then returned to my front door and knocked again. He introduced himself politely and told me that I had a pair of very good dogs. Told me to have a nice night and left.

He and I are pretty good friends now.

I'm sure it was even cooler at 2:30am

That's an interesting rig you have, and this guitar-addicted inquiring mind would like to know how you interface bagpipes with a distortion pedal/amp? Do you have a 1/4" output jack on your bagpipes?
That just HAS to sound pretty cool!

A warning for the kids reading this: stay away from guitars, they're more addictive than guns.
