Comment on the wearing of the kilt

**ChattanCat** · 10th August 08, 06:11 PM

Ok, so I get out of my truck with my wife and go into the Sears scratch and dent outlet. On my way out the girl at the desk asks "Are you Swedish?" There aren't even any smiles that convey my shock!

My wife says that a kilt is a ethnic chic magnet...maybe so... because...

Anyway, I repley, "I am scottish."
Her response "Are you in the Olympics?"

***?? Am I in the Olympics, do you mean me?? or Scotland?? Well I just responded that "I wasn't in the Olympics, it's in China."

Geesh, what were they thinking???

Was she BLONDE?

Maybe the merchandise isn't the only stuff that's "scratched and dented" at this sale?

Even if she wasn't, she was seriously geographically challenged!

Maybe she is coloring her hair, so she's using "artificial intelligence"

....Her response "Are you in the Olympics?" ...

The only answer to both questions is, "Yes. How can you tell?"

I would have had to really mess with this one.

"Are you Swedish?" Well no.Actually I'm from Africa, and on my way to the Highland games thats being held in China this year.
Those Scots ya know! Never know where they are going to have the games.

Hmmm... Does Sears have a "special" employee program?

Oh the missed opportunities in life....

"Indeed I am. I'm part of the Scottish Whisky Drinking Team. Wish me luck!"

"Indeed I am. I'm competing in the Loch Ness Monster dressage team. Wish me luck"

"Indeed I am. I am a pole vaulter, it's a bit tricky wearing the kilt let me tell you.... WAIT A MINUTE! WHAT DAY IS IT! (Check your watch) OH MY GOSH THE DATE! I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT...THE DATE! ...THE SCOTTISH OLYMPIC COMMITTEE WILL KILL ME... GOTTA GO! (race out the door)

When life hands you lemons make lemonade!

Classic! This whole story has me laughing. ChattanCat, you should wait a week or two and go back again and have some fun with some of these suggestions.
