Here's my most recent humorous incident.

A couple of weeks ago, I was walking through a downtown park dressed kilt-casual when suddenly I hear a voice from behind me exclaim, "You got to have a lot of nerve to go around dressed like that!". Upon turning around, I see a fellow, maybe late 20s, in a full classic clown outfit complete with make-up.
"I think the same applies to you!", I replied with a smile.
We chatted for a few minutes and I explained that a man in a kilt will catch the eyes of the ladies. "Actually,", he explained, "you might be surprised to learn that a clown outfit can do the same thing".
"Well, I think I'm a bit more comfortable than you", I replied. We both had good chuckle.

Blu,

Stop clowning around

I was cleaning my gutters yesterday (oh the joys of home ownership) when a lady was walking her dog walked by and said "you're wearing a kilt up there why?" My response was "because my gutters need to be cleaned!"

Surprised doesn't even cover it. Surprised and freaked out...oh yeah.

Funny that clowns come up. Every year my old neighborhood hosts a huge parade with plenty of floats, bands, etc. Anyway a few years back, Andrew and I headed off for a pint and decided on the gentlmens club (see strip bar) and noticed the clown car parked out side. We made some crack about them drinking in the pub, but sure enough there they all were in the front row, bugging the "dancers" and making ballon genatalia for the crowd. They were a funny rowdy bunch for sure.

I have never been able to look at a clown the same way since.

Oh, yeah, none of them were in kilts, but I did see a few pipebands that day.

. "Actually,", he explained, "you might be surprised to learn that a clown outfit can do the same thing".

Actually, some TV cop show had a storyline about that last season. Seems, the lady of the house would always hire clowns for EVERY family occasion and, after the party, send her husband off on some errand and have her own "party" with the clown. When hubby came home unexpectedly and caught them, he killed the clown and wifey managed to talk him into keeping the suit after they dumped his body to *ahem* spice things up a little at home...

They got caught (it WAS a TV show, after all).

Yes, I have waaay too much time on my hands. Yes, I should've been writing music or practicing or earning money to buy more kilts. *heavy sigh*

While I was visiting Alaska I was in the line at Wendy's when I heard someone behind me say "I can't believe they let you out in public..."

My mind filled in the rest of the sentace "dressed like that." I was turning around ready to break my foot off in his ****, but he finished his sentance "without Johnny."

Johnny is my best friend and when we are in the same town it is pretty rare to see one of us without the other. The guy behind me in line was a fellow who had lived in the same dorm with me during my freshman year in college.

When I heard the end of his sentance I started laughing and told him that Johnny wasn't living in that town anymore, but he would be up in a couple days. We spent the long time waiting for our food catching up...(at least 15 minutes, it was a long line and they were moving slow) and there was no mention of the fact I was wearing a kilt at all.
