    I purchased this great T Shirt at the Clan MacBubba tent.

    It was great to meet many other XMarkers at Grandfathers. There is no question in my mind, XMarks is a "clan". I belong to three Scottish clans and spent time with them all over the weekend. Where I felt the most affinity was with the XMarkers.

    BTW as far as a distinguishing symbol for us - the dandelion! Many of the XMarkers came up to me recognizing our plant badge in my bonnet.

    Wow, great essay guys... I need to get there one of these years.
    "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

    Looks like a great time. I still plan to make it to the Grandfather games one of these years. I have always heard such great things about them.

    Here are a couple of videos for you:

    1st is part of my favorite version of Robert Burns "A Man's a Man for A' That"



    Second is a little more modern. Jim and his daughter Beth
    are preforming their version of KT Tunstall's Other Side Of The World.

    As some of my red neck friends would say.

    Give it a whirl now.

    See my prior post for some video of the weekend.
