Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

I did also. And I learned a lot about the Scottish English riff and the importance of July1st. The act, going to be doing more digging on the history on this one. Seems a lot of the reason the new world has so many great Scots from the late 1700's.

Gents: Glad that you got together for a good time. Wish I could have joined you. We accomplished a lot, yesterday, but my son did most of the "heavy lifting".  Maybe next time.

Seems there are at least a half dozen differing "historical" accounts on who did what and why for just about everything from the 1500s thru the 1800s depending on the author. Seems getting behind the July 1st thing has opened a messy bag of worms.

I think that we need to form a "White Bearded" club within XMarks.
