    I thought it was great that they went and bought kilts for the games. The Scottish National looked really sharp pleated to the white stripe. My son and I watched that. He got a real kick out of it. He was amazes at how big the guys in the games were, and said that when he's grown up, he wants to be as strong as those Scots. That's my boy... and gods know, he's on his way there, and really fast- he's built like a young ox! Just like his daddy...

    heh

    When they were breaking and he did that TKD spin kick his kilt flew up high for the crowd. Though as atheletes I am sure they had shorts on but it was funny none the less.

    I just noticed that DirecTv has this episode as a VOD download for any that might be interested.
    "A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    I missed the show, but visited the YouTube site, and what was there, was just some dumb stuff about busting a pile of concrete tiles. *wierd*

    The correct term my dear duridical friend is "Bull"; your young-en is built like a young Bull, as is his father (old bull, tough nasty, very hard to chew, leave em in the pasture like Ferdinand). Look up the word Ox; you will find a few important bits err missing
