When I finished the tune, she came up, put her hand on the bag, and said "I've got a question. Are those real bagpipes?"

    I thought, "You just heard them and you're touching them - what possible definition of 'real' could you have that wouldn't be answered by those facts?"

    I was so surprised that I almost didn't answer, but finally got out, "Yes, yes they are." That seemed to make her happy, so she took a picture of me and went off, and I struck up a new tune.
    That's funny.

    On St. Pat's I had a woman come up to me and ask "Is that a real kilt?"
    I replied, "No, it's imaginary. You've had too much to drink."
