Ulster Scots kilts

Greg,

IIRC you said you weren't going to be kilted this visit because of the research project you're engaged on. Did you bring at least ONE kilt?

No, I didn't bring a kilt because I'm purposely trying to look as American as possible to (hopefully) give an air of neutrality. Also, out of the 12 ambassadors on the trip, half are working with the Ulster Scots and half with the Irish. Since I'm working with the Irish, I wouldn't really have a good opportunity to wear it anyway.

When I get back to the states, there'll be a cla pub match, hey? It'll be my twist on the scoops, muisce! Going without a kilt is dose, but maybe I'll just relax the cacks first.
