    Yesterday, the wife and I were discussing kilt purchases. My wife only refers to a kilt as a skirt to try and get a rise out of me. It's been a bit confusing to my son who wasn't too receptive of getting a kilt. In the middle of our conversation, right after my wife said skirt, my son butts in and says, "Dad, I want a kilt". It was the first time I've heard him refer to a kilt as a kilt and not a skirt.
    It's a bit hard to explain, but it was music to my ears. It's not the fact that he wanted a kilt. I knew once he seen me wearing them, he'd want one sooner or later. It was more the fact that he is standing up to Mom's terminology.

    A couple of years ago I got an email with this video. It just blew my mindm, there are now many different vids with the same concept and music, but for me this is it. Feel sorry for the neighbours though.

    The music is Wizards In Winter by The Trans-siberian Orchestra. I'd recommend their cd's for a change from the normal Christmas fare.

    Speakers up please...

    That's the video that came to mind when I read SorcererDale's post earlier in the thread. Thanks for posting it as I'd lost it.

    Une, you and me both.
