    Thanks for the comments, guys!

    One of the best things was my wife's reaction. She asked if I planned to wear the kilt at the dinner, and I originally wasn't sure if I would or not. I have one brother who can be a real PITA. She told me I had to wear it. When I first started wearing a kilt she wasn't sure if she liked the idea. Now she's proud to "show me off" in public. She says I look alot better in a kilt than I do in a suit.

    Blue...that's a good idea about hanging on to that note. With a little luck my BIL has finally figured out I won't put up with his crap any more, but having the note might come in handy down the road.

    Hermann...my wife's parents are German immigrants. They know that I wear a kilt, but they haven't seen me in it yet. We don't see each other very often so the opportunity hasn't come up. They're not quite sure what to think of the whole idea. It will be interesting to see what their reaction will be. Like you, I don't live with them, so I'm not terribly worried if they don't approve.

    Don't be suprised if you eventually learn that what she's really thinking is "My interesting brother does interesting things", or "my creative brother does creative things."

    We had some German Nationals come down to the museum and they expected to see somebody wearing the kilt.I also found out that they love the American West as well.
