Bob & Doug special on CBC

[gilmore]

Well, Padre...you almost got your wish...

...your post got me thinking and searching and there was one ray of hope: a flick called either "Vercingetorix" or "Druids" depending on the country that it was released in...cause, let's face it, there may be a good number of Xmarksers who know who Vercingetorix was but the average schmoe in the street in the USA probably couldn't tell Vercingetorix from Brennus if it came right down to it.

In the aforementioned flick, the Magnificent Max plays, as it seems he always did in his later years, a wise old man. There was some mention of the Druids in this pot-boiler running around KILTED and I figgered that perhaps ol' Max might appear unbifurcated as he plays the role of wise old advisor to the titular Vercingetorix....but no dice:

As you can see as you scan down the page, although Maxie is unbifurcated, he is wearing a Druidic robe and not a kilt.

Bummer! But it does show that the film industry is doing impeccable research and has the Druids wearing kilts as they fight the Roman Legions...it must be true!

Max von Sydow is 78 and living, isn't he?

[McMurdo]

Here is the wikipedia page on Max
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_von_Sydow
It says nothing of his demise.

Here is his IMDB page
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001884/

It looks like there still could be some hope of seeing Max in a kilt.

We've got a few guys over in Scandinavia, don't we? Get to it, Freelander...find Max and get a kilt on him.

That's MacHummels friend Sandy and Rob Campbell from the Mudmen. They wear CCK's almost exclusively with there band and doing things on there own as the Mudpipers. If you get to see it McMurdo you'll recognize the when you got to meet them in Fergus this year. There spot appears half way through the special. Even if you can't stand Bob and Doug (understandable) watch for these huge kilted gents.
