I was made an Example of...

[GTRMAN]

I was at the grocery store purchasing some vitally needed tonic water and mushrooms* when I noticed two children looking at me in the checkout line next to me. I continued with my purchase and overheard the following from their father.

Father: Do you see that? Do you know what that is?

Child: mumbles

Father: But have you ever seen one in real life on someone?

Child: mumbles

Father: This is your lucky day. That is a piece of history.

Child: mumbles

(Panache takes his purchases and heads out the door, stage right)

Father: One more thing. What do you notice about that man? Do you see he doesn't care what anyone else thinks. He's going to wear that because it's right, and that's what makes it cool.


Cheers



* Ok, the Tonic Water was vitally needed, the mushrooms were an afterthought.

Same thing happened to me at a brewery tour a couple months ago.. The lady asked me if I would mind if she pointed out my kilt to her children. I was pleased to oblige.
