    It must be great to catch someone who enunciates what others are only thinking. I'm always impressed by the neck twanging double-takes that wearing a kilt promotes.

    I guess people are willing to say things out loud into a mobile phone that they use to just think and not say.

    I once had a lady at Wal-Mart see me in one of my kilts that she didn't look where she was going and ran her cart into a display

    On Saturday, I (and a few other Xmarkers) were kilted at the St. Patrick's parade. A few lasses asked if they could have a photo with us, and we obliged. I also caught a couple of girls on different occasions "sneaking" a photo of me/us, hoping that I wouldn't notice.

    You just have to love the power of the kilt!

    At the museum this weekend I overhead another guy say to his friend..."now see, THAT's what I'm talking about". He later told me he liked my kilt. At an Ikea store later that day a lady came up to me and told me how much she loved my hair. I blame it on the kilt. Behold the power!
