Anyone who plays bagpipes at midnight has serious issues. There's no pill for that.

Just curious,...which did they make the case for institutionalizing him on, public nudity or the choice of instrument?
They outlawed public nudity? No wonder Iggy Pop quit touring.

Agreed, this was a long time ago. I don't know where he ultimately ended up.
I think there was alcohol and combative behavior involved...
Dorothy and I, at one time, would play each other at Star Battle played on the VIC20. I still have that machine but it’s been on a shelf for Eons. I wonder what it’d be like on our 40” SONY TV? Hmmm........ 
No one but Ken likes a late night nood drunk bag piping and swinging his pipe at the critics.

As for public nudity y’all have to remember that beneath our clothes we are all completely naked!!! That is a bare fact. 
There was a St Patrick's Day parade in town this past weekend. Lots of pipe bands. There was a big french poodle watching the parade who seemed to enjoy singing along whenever the bagpipes trouped by.
Those 4K TV's are pretty nifty. I was looking at a Samsung 58" LED UHD TV set at Walmart this past weekend, it was under $1K. I can't belive how much less they are priced than the last one that I bought. There are wide curved ones that are proportionally not that high that make good computer monitors if you have lots of windows open at once. For CAD type work, a regular flat screen works better. What's nice about the LED screens is that you can get close and still see clearly.
Never played a game on a computer, other than pong.

Ya know how he almost always performed shirtless and was really lean. I saw a recording of a fairly recent performance at some festival and he was shirtless and lean as always, but now even he is starting to sag and bag and he looked like a skinny, saggy 70 year old.
We should invite him to join us.

My father-in-law is visiting and wanted to play solitaire. Before I could whip out the tablet, my wife had produced an old deck of cards missing the Queen of spades. I drew one on the bridge rules card.

And I'm guessing that the fix for the on-line solitaire game in the event of a card missing from the screen would have taken a lot more effort to correct.
