    Twice in one night...

    Just thought I'd post that I saw 2 kilts on TV in one evening... first was a Burger king commercial, featuring some punk band playing a song about BK's new 'chicken fries' - one of the band members, who is only on screen briefly, in a red/black kilt. I don't know about about tartans to see which.

    Lateron I'm watching Good Eats on the food network, and it's a show about oats, and they are talking about the Scots and how they were largely responsible for people eating oats (according to Alton Brown, until the English saw the scots eating oats, they only fed oats to their horses), and he did a quick scene about haggis (oats in haggis...) and him and an 'extra' were wearing tanks as he described what haggis is. He even tried a scottish accent. He sounded like a Canadian Arnold Schwartzenagar ;)

    Funny thing is, I'm in the middle of (trying to) making my own kilt as I'm watching these shows ;)

    I'll post pics as soon as I get it to a wearable state.

    EDIT: I went to the BK site, and they have a link to the "band's" website... http://www.coqroq.com/ - you can meet the band... Fire Bird is the one in the kilt. There's a cool gallery there... no pics, but it's neat how you see the pics... give it a shot.
