    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    Since he's wearing a pin-stripe suit coat, unless he raided Sir Hamish's closet and fetched one of his brilliant 21st Century kilt suits, I would bet not. Never really thought about it, but I guess he is at least part Scot, huh? (Not that that's a prerequisite to kilt up.)

    Is the piper wearing Irish National, I guess?

    John Sidney McCain III is connected to my Young family (from memory his G grandmother was a Young, she married John Sidney McCain SR). Our Young's changed our name in 1646 from Lamont in one of those Highland Clan squabbles so he definately is Scot-Irish. I recognize his stubborn streak....it follows the linage, a most dominat trait for sure.
