    fellow eccentrics...

    A friend was speaking with an old Scottish lady today.
    This friend asked the old Scottish lady if people wear kilts in Scotland these days.

    She is reported to have replied, "well my daddy wore a kilt all the time, even plowing the fields...but these days they are worn only by eccentrics."

    so hello, fellow eccentrics!!

    Hello. My name is Brian, and I will soon be a Kilt eccentric (since I don't have one yet). I'm not ashamed to come forward and admit this.

    Thanks for the compliment.

    I've worked hard to attain this status.

    I've always worn that title wi' pride, and not just about Highland attire! :mrgreen:

    A friend of mine is always saying that eccentrics are rich, whilst weirdos are poor!

    Cheers,

    Now, why did I always think that eccentrics did not know that they were eccentric?!

    Ham, of course we know we're eccentrics. We work hard to cultivate it.
