17 days

[CameronTaylor]

Yep, it's jonesing time and 17 days til beer night.
I have 2 of the 6 kilts (but both are from SK, one is a knock around and the other ain't mine). If one of the others doesn't get here, by God I'll wear Levi's.
So sew you so and so's

17 days should be enough time. 13 oz Black Denim, Black Thread, scissors, Thimble, Measuring tape, Yardstick, pack of needles. New Black Denim Kilt with 7 days left to go. Faster of you can handle being a light machine operator. (sewing machine). Worked for me in three days.

Well yeah except I've gotta get Hers done, fix my Pride of Scotland (so close to being done), and then there's the bartender's ....

At this point I would just get a SWK. It cuts the jonesing waiting period down.

No, you have the honor of being "the guy with the redhead" (mine doesn't like flying)

Take the train!!! LOL

I don't have that kind of time ... and the Coast Starlate didn't get that name for nothing.
We once got into Hell-A at 4:30am (scheduled arrival 9pm the previous night) on New Years Day with a deserted Union Station. The commisary people were the only ones to show up to unload the dining car (they are/were responsible for all it's contents and money), the assitant conductor ferried passengers to the front of the station on a baggage cart, I locked the baggage car door from the inside*, left the Head End power on, locked the locomotives and cars and went home.
* - I rode up with a friend who was the Conductor at the time, when the crew was still based in LA, sort of the assitant to the assistant conductor - and I can throw bags and organize a bag car like nobodies bidness. I can also rehang doors using sledge hammers and pry bars
I had the shortest walk to my car, I'd parked on the platform at LA (back when you could do that and get away with it ... if you knew where.

Anyhoo, I've got an estimated $1800 USD out there already, jonesing or not.
I feel '08 is gonna be a good kilted year and I'll be dispensing more dollarage later.
