    I'll let you know... I have 34 kilts with material for 2 more waiting and designs for 3 tartans that I'm trying to have registered with the STA. I'd say that it only gets worse with time...

    Wasn't there a song some years ago about having a "Basketball Jones"?
    Shoot...now I'll be hearing that song in my head all day.
