Sigh...which kilt to wear...

This is definetly a great problem to have! Go for the Kilt that hits you one hour before you are set to leave, you will be fine.

Difficult one to call 646guy but I'd say don't wear the Pinstripe Mercy. The Mercy kilt is very comfortable for casual wear (so much so that I've just bought a second one on e-bay) but you get what you pay for and it is a very lightweight polyester material and has only about half as many pleats as a proper Scottish kilt so doesn't hang or swing correctly. Great fun to wear to the shopping mall or supermarket but not for a big night out where you want to your kilt to make a good impression.

I always want my kilt to make a good impression.

I agree with Darrel; go with one of the brighter ones.

So, what did you wear??? I agree with all the suggestions, just tell me the night did not end up with another fish kissing!

The event is actually tonight....I'm basically working the balcony VIP lounge to make sure that they have enough food, booze, it's not getting too crowded, etc....I still haven't decided but I think I'm going to go with the McDonald tartan and the green Jacobite shirt tonight....Hopefully the headset and pack they are giving me will clamp on the kilt without killing the look or the pleats either....

Every time I try to open his blog page, the page opens, and then the browser (Mozilla) stops responding.

Hey...it was for an extreme scavenger hunt and that pic was worth 50 points per person wrapped in Saran Wrap, 90 points per person for each person we kissed on another team, and a bonus of 50 points for the fish...

To be honest, I don't even know the name of the guy that I kissed but I do remember that we got a bonus of 200 points for the two same gender kisses in the pic....

OKay heading home from this Oscar party....most people left because the Oscars were so boring as heck so pretty easy gig...gotta love cash under the table...

Oh and yeah there is a video on there that should be moving off the page soon...

I have to deal with this character face to face every so often so i stay away from his blog, as i might know a few too many of the folks he writes about & I may need to look them in the face afterwards...
