    Red face I didn't realize I had this many kilts...

    Well, while I was gone a profile section was added that for how many kilts you own and a list of the actual kilts. So I originally put down the number of kilts that I've been telling people that I owned and then I set to listing them.

    However, a funny thing happened when I went through my list. I realized that I actually own more kilts than I was claiming! I had no idea that I had that many kilts. Admittedly, I still don't have as many as some people here since I only have 20, but that is still a rather fair number of kilts. I guess I should have realized as much since I wear kilts every day (haven't owned pants in years) and I wind up repeating a kilt about once every 2 to 3 weeks with the exception of my favorites.

    Have you been surprised recently when you realized that you had more kilts than you'd assumed?

    What surprised me is how many I've purchased and "outgrown"....bought 63 so far but only have 32 left. 30 of those fit me...sold the rest to smaller guys...but I'm still jonesing for more kilts...gotta have more kilts...still want some cool tartans...gotta have them...

    Hard to keep track without focusing and making a count. Does give a lot of options for deciding what to wear.

    If only they would do that on their own and we didn't have to feed them all those greenbacks.
