    Angry Gentlemen - prepare to kilt up monday!

    Monday is August 1, the 265th anniversary of the accursed Act of Proscription.

    . . . and by way of interest, where will you be seen in public to mark the occasion? I'm thinking of taking She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed shopping.

    I'm leading the music at church tomorrow. I think I'll wear the kilt and "educate" the folks a bit.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.

    Good one! You could even lead the music... with your pipes!

    August 2, my date and I will be attending the Glenlivet Whisky Dinner at the Hearsay Gastro Lounge. I will be properly girded, but on which particular tartan I haven't decided, yet.

    I'll be kilted at work. Not that that's anything new.

    Will be kilted for sure. 8/1 is also the anniversary of when my CEO told me I couldn't wear kilts to work anymore. I grieved the directive and won. Ironic that since he has promoted me to management.

    He probably likes people who are willing to take a stand for what they believe in.

    I'll be kilted on Monday, as I'm piping at a funeral. Isle of Skye tartan it will be.

    After having a month with no funerals, I had one Friday and I have one on Monday and one on Tuesday. And band practice Saturday and Sunday... enough piping to do me for a while.

    I will be in my Micro Computer Applications and Algebra classes. Though, I wear my kilt most of the time, so I doubt anyone would even notice or bother to ask why I am wearing it.
