Men who wear Kilts
The stout hearted men who wear kilts are the men who live and think out side of the box...

Outside the box indeed
I don't post very often as I tend to write in early memo style but I had to on this one. One of the reasons (on the spur of the moment) I ordered my first kilt back in June is that I was in a severe rut and needed something to jumpstart myself out of boredom. Things have been VERY different since that first one arrived. I had gotten to be a terrible homebody (even when we travel I'd want to just go to happyhour, dinner and then back to the hotel). Now when I get in from the office and my partner suggests we go somewhere I'm much more apt to say "Let me put on a kilt and we're out the door". It's fun!
More to the point my third kilt arrived from Pittsburgh Kilts yesterday. It was a custom order (fabric wise) that Jeff and I conferred over for some time. The base color is close to a royal blue and it has pineapples and palm trees on it. How out of the box is that?? .......... Now while the traditionalists are getting up off the floor (or cleaning off their screens) I will say that the kilt is excellently made. I don't know a lot about kilts but I do know a bit about fabric and sewing (from my folks) and this is a very well made garment. It fits and hangs nicely and quite frankly I love it.
Out of the box is fun and it never hurts to keep others guessing.

I is womderful to hear posts from men who have decided that enough is enough. There is whole wide world out there outside of the box most of the men (and a lot of women, including my wife) never want to know about.
If we who have looked and liked what we saw tell and show othere what fun and satification there is to be had "out side the box" the sooner life will be better for all men of courage. Some men are happy in there rut and so be it,
but I for one decided things are going on that I want to enjoy.
Good luck and good kilting

A Margaritaville kilt. Very cool. ;)

And once you're out of that box, somebody would be hard pressed to squeeze you back in, it's a good lifestyle to adopt, opens your eyes and mind to many other, possibly previously unthought thoughts!

...when a large number of these stout hearted men think that less than 50" waist is skinny, then all I have to say is I hope these stout hearts keep ticking for their stout bods for many more years.

Pehaps it's the stout that makes the stout bodies that contain the stout hearts.
