As the Canadian membership is well aware, today is Federal Election day in Canada. Time to get out and vote for your favorite party. Btw...if they're called a "party", why is it that they look so darn serious all the time?

Anyway, my wife and I just got back from the polling station. I wore my new Hunting McLeod SWK, t-shirt, pushed down socks, and my black boots. Basically the exact combination I'm wearing in the pic I posted last week. The place was quite empty at this time of day, aside from the polling station volunteers. You could almost hear the neck muscles snap as every head swivelled around to check out the "guy in a kilt" when we walked in.

Our polling booth was staffed by two attractive young women. As we walked up one of them started gushing about my kilt! She said her husband wore one when they got married, and that they had a piper and the whole bit. The other lady started asking questions about the kilt...why I wear it, what was the funny little thing in the front ;) (sporran), was it comfortable...etc. They thought it was cool, and said they wished more guys would wear them. All in all a GREAT experience!
