    The Art of Contemporary Kiltmaking

    Has this been published yet? I'd love to have that one.

    It will be published in 2012 to fulfill an ancient Mayan prophecy. The great stone disks, upon which the world is encoded, will then stop and The Wizard of BC will need to turn them over and play the other side. He is the anointed one, and the only person with the knowledge to do this.

    If we all get thrown off will that be the last Celtic Fling?

    I do love a punchline that comes around the left side that way! Your mind is as twisted as mine... "I don't care who y'are. That's funny."

    Was that sarcasm?

    No, it was pulsed transcranial magnetic stimulation of the right temporal lobe during Post-Curmudgeon-Stress-Disorder therapy.

    That is sarcasm.

    Then I guess we'll see you on the flipside.

    I wasn't sure about that. I've asked all around and couldn't get a straight answer. I'm glad you cleared that up.

    Just remember, every post you make digitally records a piece of your personality into the forum archive.

    Perhaps we are being studied by digital archeologists of the future...

    Question

    So I'm curious now, was there supposed to be a 'Art of Contemporary Kiltmaking' book coming out?
    Order of the Dandelion, The Houston Area Kilt Society, Bald Rabble in Kilts, Kilted Texas Rabble Rousers, The Flatcap Confederation, Kilted Playtron Group.
