    A week to ponder

    Someone unfamiliar with kilting is browsing for information. The posts of any subject (sporrans as an example) are many and varied. The person decides to join, as we have become "the source to rely on for all things kilted". They are greeted by a world wide host of personalities, opinions and experiences.
    I am one of those greetings. Imagine the new person's surprise (or confusion) that a member (not knowing my gender, age or background) from Oxford, Mississippi begins with, "Well met."

    I've had a week to think through this issue. Greeting new members with well met will be as easy as having long hair (kept in a ponytail as I have for 40 plus years) among a room full of "crew cuts". It is a quirk, not meant to offend others, but as natural as my ready and hardy laughter. I can only remain, sincerely, Bobby Ingram, and true to my myself.
