Stimulus We Can Support: Paying The Piper

Although Stacy and I are still Waiting for O-Dough, an alternate revenue stream may become available, as reported by CNSNews:
Forget the astronomical joke bill, and focus on the bottom line.
I’ve been a piper for nearly twenty years:

Flight deck of USS McClusky (FFG 41), St. Patrick's Day, 1996, somewhere off the coast of Taiwan. USS Independence (CV 62) on the horizon. The blob to the left is an oiler, but I can't recall her name.


Right now I’m working to get my pudgy body back into shape and also learning how to use my Ubuntu Studio distribution, and goodies like Kino, to edit some YouTube clips.
So hit the tip jar, follow the links, and keep up the encouragement, readers!

    USS McClusky FFG 41 is still in commission.
    And we all are fortunate that Lt. Commander Wade McClusky decided to follow his hunch just over 68 years ago this month.

    Motion: That Smitty should bring his bagpipes to the next Smittypalooza. All in favor? (I’m down for “aye”).

    Bagpipes, eh? I shoulda known Smitty would be a good Celtic boy.

    It’s great to keep traditions alive. Can you play “Amazing Grace” Smitty? It sounds divine on bagpipes.

    @Stogie,
    Yes, I’ll be doing a YouTube clip of my own Amazing Grace arrangement Real Soon Now.
    In twenty years I gained as many pounds, and the kilt visuals are as shrill as the pipes these days.

    Bob, if you think that’s bad, I don’t even play the pipes and my wife wants me in a kilt.

    Or maybe she just wants me kilt. She mumbles.
