Today I was invited to lunch with an old friend that had not yet seen me kilted. With that being the case, I decided to dress it up a little and give him something to talk about. We meet at the restaurant and the first thing he asks is why.... I, of course, explain that today is Thursday. He ponders this for a moment and then again asks "Really, why???" Again I respond that today is Thursday.. (I did finally let him off the hook and explain that I wear the kilt 2-3 days a week now.

So flash forward to inside the restaurant, a young couple walks up and the gentlemen says, "My wife wants to know if it is true what they say about Scotsmen"? My response "Yes, we do, in fact, make better lovers!"

I thought the young lady was going to explode from the shades of red she was turning... In the meantime, her husband is bent over double from laughter. At the same time, my poor friend is trying desparately not to spew his beer all over the place.

This completely made my day!

But, it gets better. On the way home, I stop by a local store to get my afternoon shot of caffeine and run into a friend and her teenage daughter. My friend makes a comment about the kilt and how much she likes it. The daughter mentions that she really likes a man in a kilt! My response "if you like the front, you going to love the rear!" and I turn around and swish the pleats. As I turn back around, both women are smiling broadly and a young man who has just walked in has doubled over! He then asks where he can get a kilt!

All in all, a great day!
