    Okay, one for Longshadows, possibly one for Flairball. Got it! Anyone else I should have a drink for?

    Reminds me of a joke:

    A local named Fergal walks into the pub in Ireland, and orders three pints of Guinness, carries them to his table, and drinks them one at a time, then walks out the door.

    This goes on for several weeks before the publican tells Fergal, "You know, I can pour one pint at a time, and you don't have to get them all at once."

    "Oh, I know," he replied. "It's just that my two brothers moved to America, so by drinking the three at once it's as if we're drinking together."

    The publican thought this was a fine idea, and life went on as usual for a few more months. Then one day Fergal came in and only ordered two pints, carried them to his table, and drank them one after another.

    The publican waited a few minutes, then approached the table. "I'd like to offer my condolences."

    "What do you mean?" Fergal asked.

    "Oh, I just thought that since you were only drinking two pints one of your brothers had passed away."

    Fergal laughed, "No, they're both fine. I just quit drinking."

    Andrew.

    success!

    I Just want to thank you guys for getting together last night for our fist Boston Kilt night. I hope there are many more to come, and the guest list gets larger, and larger. All indications are that we could have quite a crew.
    I believe the location was well suited for the event. I can't wait to sample other fine establishments for future events.

    Andrew, we will toast to your adventure, and safe return in your absence.
    Godspeed!

    As Rich said, kilt night was very enjoyable. No doubt there will be others, and the number of kilts will grow. We had three of us; Rich, Andrew, and myself in kilts, and Rich's girlfriend, and a buddy also joined us. Both Rich and I have friends in the pipeline, ready to convert, so the next kilt night should be fun too, however Andrew will be off on a kilted adventure, so he will be missed. I brought a camera, and a couple pictures were taken, but they were the first two on the roll of film, so this weekend I'll be frantically snapping away so I can post them soon. Anyway, hopefully next time we will see more of our kilted brothers, and maybe even some representatives from other New England states.
