Faithful Blogee accuses me of plagiarzing Ulysses Grant in my entry on bagpiping below. I had a sneaky feeling when I wrote that line that I was probably stealing it from somewhere, but I couldn't remember where. I wish I were a more adept copy thief. It would have saved me the 20 minutes I spent on Google going through bagpiping websites trying to find the name of that tune (my thanks go to the reader who added it).

It comes down to a moral question: Is it really theft if you can't be sure you stole it, and if you did steal it, you don't know who you stole it from? At my age, senility may be the best defense.
