Reminds me of a little incident during my last week in the Army.  I
had a day off due to my outprocessing schedule and was determined to
spend the better part of it sleeping (a common and enjoyable pastime
among soldiers).  Unfortunately, the pair of rude young ladies in the
room across from mine thought it would be wonderful fun to play some
extremely unpleasent gangster rap at top volume.  I asked them very
nicely several times to turn it down, but they decided to turn it up
instead.  Fortunately, one of my roommates at the time had a *very*
powerful stereo.  The speakers went in the doorway...the Royal Scots
Dragoon Guards went in the tape deck...and a lot of people were
introduced to the joy of bagpipes in a big way.  They surrendered
within five minutes.  For the record, a pipe band will *easily* drown
out the Ghetto Boys...
