i know this has come up before; but we should find some way to stand out so we can find each other. it is way too late to order pins, t-shirts, and such. perhaps we could walk around with large spinning umbrellas, wear false smiles, and shun Number Six.

at any rate, i'll be easy to spot. i have really short hair (nearly bald looking), and a full red beard, i'm 5' 7" and stocky ("stocky" always sounds better than "fat").

i'm looking forward to meeting yall

I just had a flashback to a picture of Lord Hamish in his pride flag / rainbow kilt with matching umbrella and feather boa.

"WHO IS NUMBER ONE?"

I have fairly short hair, goatee with too much gray, and drive a very stylin' 4-door sentra. (Try to control your jealousy)
I won't be kilted when I arrive, because I don't want to spend 7 or 8 hours sitting on my pleats, but shortly after that can probably be found outside enjoying a cigar and tasty adult beverage. I will try to have a little extra of each on hand.

We COULD all wear pink tutus/to-tos with our kilts. At least we'd stand out.

Not that that would say much about kilt wearers or this forum.

So, is a new "X Marks" T-shirt in development (through the properly authorized sources)??? Any comments, Kiltedmusiclover?
MUCH better than a pink to-to.

Well, for at least a little while I'll be wearing a leather back quiver full of yellow-fletched arrows. That should stand out pretty well!

I'll also be attending although I'll be late as my office is doing Disaster recovery testing on Saturday. And guess who got saddled with it just 2 weeks ago. So I get to drop my family and friends off and drive into the office and sit on my a$$ for 2 hours while other people take care of the work. I'll just be overseeing. Enough of my rant. Look forward to meeting some of you guys. As furrycelt is a good friend of mine I'm sure he'll be able to introduce me when I finnally make it to the games.

**Kiltedmusiclover** · 18th April 07, 07:09 AM

I'll be wearing my balmoral with a Xmarks kilt pin on it.
I will also be wearing a white T shirt. that
