More Pipers
January 05th, 2025 by G.
The Clan Chief’s piper played badly out of tune. The Clan Chief, who had the Benefits of an Education, was not worried. ‘I’ll just get in more pipers,” he said. “Lots more pipers. Given that being out of tune almost certainly varies in statistically standard ways, if I get enough pipers the average will be in tune.”
It didn’t work.

Ooh, this one made me wince. Twelve different out-of-tune pipers would be exceedingly painful to listen to. Two wrongs don’t make a right, especially in tuning. Ask anyone who’s played in an orchestra!

As a Piper this made me laugh aloud! It’s been a rough several days with promises of years more to come. Thanks!
