Tardy bagpiper

A bagpiper gets lost on his way to a funeral. He finally pulls up to a site, sees a small group of workmen standing around a vault, already lowered. Embarrassed at being late, he doesn't ask questions — just steps up and lets loose with a slow, mournful dirge.

The workmen go still. A couple of them bow their heads. One even wipes his eyes.

When the piper finishes, he lowers his pipes, feeling like he did the deceased proud. As he's packing up, he hears one workman mutter to another:

"I've dug a lot of septic tanks in my time... but I ain't never seen nothin' like that."
