    Some one on this board recommended "So You're Going To Wear The Kilt" J. Charles Thompson.

    Lots of outstanding information. The part that stuck out in my head, if I may paraphrase. When you first wear the kilt publicly, you will hear a lot of comments. Now that you are paying attention, listen when you are not wearing the kilt, it's about the same. Always keeping that in mind, I haven't heard very much.

    I am certain that I am the only person in 15 miles that wears a kilt. I reside in a small town, no one has said anything to me, and I never cared to ask.

    Being malicious in nature, I have had some fun. A group of pipers in a parking lot were putting stuff in their cars. I yelled to them, "Nice Skirts!" One man less than politely invited me over to restate the comment. I drove my truck over, got out wearing my "Black Watch" and had a good laugh. An hour later, we drove our separate ways, and I had a few leads to some fishing spots.
