    What do you know that he isn't proudly supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month?

    It's clear the guy has put a lot of thought into what he's wearing. He's neat and presentable and proud of it. I think he's pretty well put together for a guy in pink. If he owns a pink sporran, it's likely that he owns a dozen other more conventional sporrans and can afford to be a little over-the-top on occasion. It's his choice - and he's got the cojones for it.

    Bully for him!

    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    Indeed! It takes guts to wear an outfit like that, and I applaud him for it .

    Oh god I just finally finished this thread. Now I can't think what to do with my life. I guess I'll go put on a kilt. Maybe go outside. Maybe eat lunch. Who am I kidding I am going to write my French paper and do my math homework like a good student.

    Thanks for the ride,
    Matt!

    DO:
    Put on a kilt, and…
    - Go outside. (Absent blizzard, outside is always good.)
    - Eat lunch. (DON’T spill any food on the kilt!)
    - Write a French paper. (Maybe on the Scots who served France?)
    - Do math homework. (This will help: “One kilt two kilt three kilt four / Five kilt six kilt seven kilt / More!”)
    - Be a good student. (The bonnie lass will love the kilt, but she’ll want a lad who can earn a living too.)

    I'm not sure who is the source of this observation which I recall from many years ago. It may even have been Emily Post who observed that only someone who thoroughly understands the reasons for a convention can violate it with impunity. I suspect that this gentlemen does not even feel constrained to serve only red wines with red meats.
