    I'm so upset I couldn't make it. I forgot the dates and my girlfriend didn't call to remind me until late Friday night! :sad:

    Of course, I couldn't go because I already had tickets to see Tom Petty in concert Saturday night. :drinker: That helped ease the pain of missing the Highland Games!

    "His knife see rustic Labour dight,
    An cut you up wi ready slight,
    Trenching your gushing entrails bright,
    Like onie ditch;
    And then, O what a glorious sight,
    Warm-reekin, rich! "

    You don't sound like you know anything about the SCA do you???

    Society for Creative Anachronism.


    It's a quote from Burns' poem about a haggis--I think J would recognize it.

    i did, but then i should, also being one of them hairy scotsmen. :smile:

    and i'm cerainly a Great chieftain o' the pudding-race

    :laugh:

    um...we will need proof Cal....so show us your kilt! :drinker: :wink:

    I'll see what i can do (dont keep pictures of myself), but won post it here as i could never compete with the utility kilt.

    Post it up Cal!!!


    I'm needing other kilt wearin fools to show their unsupported (as in kilts) support!

    You all asked for it :wink:

    brother's wedding, me and him in picture, i'm the gormless one on the right

    and it is a kilt, not a skirt, i can assure you. might use it as my profile pic too, as it is much more recent that the one i use just now (unfortunately)

    Lookin good bro!!!!!!


    Back in the day when I made the worst mistake of my life and married a heartless harpy, myself and my groomsmen wore kilts. We all looked amazing. Dress kilts really are the best looking formal wear out there for guys.
