Outstanding!

At my company party, much the same thing happened. Even though I was dressed casually/semi formally, I got many of the the same type of comments.

I was hiking the other day on a nice little trail in the desert. I passed two women engaged in conversation, paying more attention to the trail and each other other than me, until we passed on the trail. The first looked up at me and said "wha...?" Then the other looked said "Wow".

The first said "That's a REAL man." The other said "I can't believe you have the confidence to wear a kilt." I was almost embarrased at this point. A short conversation continued, where I got THE question, of course, and was asked how often I wear it. I said very often, even at work. After a few more questions, I said good day and we went our seperate ways.

If one is not ready for conversation, attention and looks, the kilt would be a bad choice. I was thinking when I finally got away from the two hikers, that it really does require a lot of confidence to wear a kilt. We wear the kilt for a lot of different reasons, but it really does exude a strong air about us,(Not the smelly kind, either!) and I think that's a primary people are drawn to us in the kilt.

Really, like a James Bond walking into a ballroom. He may or may not be the most handsome man in the room at the time, however, He carries it well . That confidence is obvious.

Just some ramblings.
