I left for the big Asheville kilt night a little after five this afternoon. I got about ten miles and my truck engine starts ratteling like a can full of peas. So I pull over, it stalls, and the engine bursts into flames. A passer-by called the fire department, but by the time they got there the fire was out, so all they could do was call the SHP. 40 minutes later they show up and call a wrecker. Then a local cop I know pulls up and the SHP leaves. It took the wrecker another 45 minutes to get there, and about the same amount of time to haul it home.

I really hate not getting to the party, but I just wanted everyone to know why I didn't show.

On the positvie side, several thousand cars passed me along I-40 and everyone got an eyeful of the guy in the kilt.

Geez FL, I was wondering what happened. I was not the only kilted guy there...another gentleman sporting a Duncan kilt was there for a few hours. Food and drink were all fine, as was the music. Much good conversation and quite a few conversations with folks who simply had to comment on the kilt. You know how that goes...

Sorry to hear about your truck. Hopefully you'll be back on the road soon.

How 'bout we try again on the 23rd??

Hhmm I'm killing time this weekend in South Carolina. I'm threatened with Altanta but might try and convince to do Asheville. Any music to going on to help the cause?

Hmm... On the one hand I'd love to be there.

On the other hand, I've got class the next morning, and I still have a history report on Robert the Bruce (Who else) that I need to write by Friday. And unfortunately finding primary sources for him is tough. I'm going to need to ransack the UNC-A library I think.
