    Famous musical lines that you'll never hear: "That's the banjo player's Porsche."

    Sometimes I get the question "Do you play the bagpipes?" So far, the only snappy answer I've used is "No, but I play the radio real loud." Are there any other good responses for this question?

    If you are in no hurry, I expect to have a little xmarks tartan left over later in the year.

    Is it a good banjo?

    (Banjos, like pipes, can be an acquired taste. I like both.)

    "I wouldn't call what I do 'playing'."
    "No, I don't have my license yet." - That just confuses them.

    If you wear it that way, just watch out for others who try to play it!
