    In Honor of Retro Red, today I am wearing..

    RED.

    A red, red polo shirt, red hose scrunched down on top of boots, and my camo X-Kilt. It's a bit irreverent for me, but you know what?

    Tuff.

    I bet the folks at work can handle it. Anybody that asks, gets:

    A. a quick run-down of Retro Red's contributions to kilted life in general vis a vis X Marks

    and

    B. a limerick composed, likely, on the spot. This guarantees it will be a really bad limerick.

    heh.

    Most of The Clan Claus Society wear red everyday so I will add a black ribbon today. I did not know Retro Red but understand his presence here at X Marks will be greatly missed.

    I had thought about doing the same thing, but I have no red to wear, aside froma pair of flashes. So- I opted to just dress up a little more than usual, meaning I wore my saltire socks pulled up with Clergy tartan flashes, and have my shirt buttoned up all the way. I work in an industrial environment. Nothing more is realy appropriate- or in the case of ties, safe!

    Well done, Alan!

    For me, my Roxburgh Red, red polo, red hose, black flashes. Never met him, but his spirit certainly shines on in this forum and his passing cast a shadow we all could see and feel.
