normalacy in other ways

Observations from the desk of the old man, who lives in a big city:

I got much of the info in better quality than I expected for the short time that has elapsed so far, thank you.

But, why do you think they didn't seem to show kilts on BW TV?

The toga - even in its simplest form is rather cumbersome. It is worn rather like a huge long plaid, but tended/tends to slide off the shoulder and necessitates the left shoulder being kept tensed and often the left arm crooked to keep it in place.

Normally the toga was worn with a tunic, but it was perfectly proper without one.

I doubt that anyone actually wears a toga these days, though I found that a long length of towelling worn toga fashion made quite a good bathrobe in an emergency.

Nice timeline SteveB. I hope it gets more common!

I have never EVER seen a man kilted here in STL that wasn't at a parade or tartan event. We are always behind the times.

The town we moved to (outside of actually) has a population of less than 1000. I have been told, that other than a gentleman who lives up one of the canyons and only wears his kilt (and plays his pipes) on special occasions, I am the only one seen in a kilt. People in the town still stare when I come in kilted (it only took Sasquatch a couple of months to get accustomed to me kilted.)
