On Thursday evening I plan to be kilted at the Bujinkan head master's 80th birthday party in Noda, Japan -- first time I've been kilted in Japan in several years. With 2-300 practitioners from every corner of the globe in attendance at the party it'll be interesting to see if I get asked The Question.

It'll also be my first wearing of my new FB sporran in beaver fur. I have my quid-pro-quo offer prepared: "Why sure lass, you're welcome to pet MY beaver if. . ."

Heh.

I was hoping to take one of Ryan Ross's bonnets with me too but, alas, they're not ready yet.
