What makes non kilt wearers an expert?

[Drac]

Good day all,

I was working Sunday with my unit and while waiting around the discussion turned to me wearing a kilt. I wasn't wearing one at the time (in uniform) but of course The Question came up and I said that I wore fun boxers under mine (Lucky Charms ones because they are always after me Lucky Charms).

The next thing these guys who gave me strange looks at admitting to wearing one, thought the whole idea of a man in a "skirt" was wrong and would not even think about the idea of wearing one proceeded to tell me that I shouldn't be wearing a kilt with anything under it. How it was so much of a tradition it should be a law and on and on.

So what makes these people who think this garment is wrong and strange suddenly tell someone who wears one how to do so?

On a good note the reason for the conversation was that I had worn one of my casual kilts out the night before for dinner and someone had asked if I was cold when I answered how I could bear the cold and how much worse December in Texas was over the Highlands of Scotland where the kilt came from .

Ah - one of the great imponderables. Right up there with "What is the meaning of Life?, "What is Love?", "How does a woman think?" and "Are we there yet?

When you get an answer, make sure to post it - with pictures.

After all this time, I am surprised that no one has provided a response to your post.

The answer, of course is ... 42.

Answers are so meaningless without the coresponding question. Does anyone know what the ultimate question to the meaning of life, the universe, and everything?

Yes, what is 40 + 2

That's where it went wrong. 42 was the answer to six times seven. I think the question was supposed to be six times nine, or something like that.

I know the answer because the proof of the pudding is in its eating.

Ego, pure and simple. A man's gotta know everything about everything - even if he's gotta fake it. And the more he fakes it the more sincere and knowledgeable he presents as a defense against being caught faking.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
