I suspect you are not one of the "few good men" that they are looking for ...

D'ya think? Oh well, hanging out at funerals is kind of depressing, anyway.

I'd say it would depend on the funeral.

I've wanted to try out a New Orleans Style Jazz Funeral. They look like a good time.

And I've been to Native American crossing ceremonies, as well as Wiccan ones that don't leave me depressed and irritable in the same way a Catholic High Mass funerary service does.

I wouldn't touch that with a 10 inch pole.;)

I find that anything Catholic makes me depressed and irritable.;)

My grandfather just died and they didn't have a bugler to send to the funeral so the funeral home just played a recording of taps. I have to agree - it was kinda cheesy. But - a digital bugle?? Thats even more cheesy.

My dad made me promise to hire a dixieland band at his funeral. :) And he's from England.

From the picture I'd say most people wouldn't know.:)

I'd think that perhaps you'd be able to tell a difference in the sound.

Each bugler plays a bit differently from what I understand.

I think your right, there. That's why I don't think most people would tell the difference. You really don't have anything to reference because everytime you hear it, the sound will be a little different depending on the horn, the lip, the terrain, the weight of the jockey...I'm rambling, aren't I.:blush:

I've always preferred "Amazing Grace" played by Bagpipes.

I can't make it through that without bursting into tears.

Personally, I find the lyrics to that song to be very offensive. I won't call myself a wretch, and I think any ideology that encouages such thinking is potentially quite dangerous. It's like, the complete opposite of the philosophy I described in the Lovebugz thread.

Of course, I'm not dissing anyone that likes the song (that'd be everyone). It's just my opinion regarding my interpretation of the message.

wolf 09-23-2003 12:37 PM

I didn't say that I liked it, just that it makes me cry.

(Those who know me understand that "things that make me cry" is a pretty short list. "Things that make me reload" is a pretty long list.)

Going by the picture that thing, at best, has a 2 1/2" speaker. I haven't heard one of these things, but I recognize a cheesy small speaker when I hear one.

Bagpipes have that effect on a lot of people :)

Just kidding. I like AG on bagpipes myself.
