piperdbh's new tyger buckle

[Ryan Ross]

And although some of our posts- (perhaps it is better that I speak for myself: my posts) might be viewd as back-slapping and self-congratulating, this is all very much in fun and jest in a sad world that needs some enlightenment.

It can be very difficult to say complimentary things and not have those compliments be either viewed or interpreted as some sort of promotion. Many culpas to anyone who feels that I have trangressed in this regard.

Well said, indeed. And the same goes double, for me.

Yes. I think I posted in some other thread that many of us need to take things less seriously. Seriosity can become such a burden that the burdened don't notice the weight until it is lifted.

Now, guys, I have to tell you that if somebody else said this, I am not aware of it. But there is probably something like this in the greatest book of all time, or some other loving reference.

So you're having a double. Figure me in for a hard cider and a piece of the key lime shamrock cake I'm going to make tomorrow and we'll have ourselves a party.

...I'll bring the Guinness and the funny hats.


edit: PAPER hats, that is! For St. Pat's Day!!!

I'll be in Butte, America for St. Patrick's Day, and I'll toast you gents.


Maybe not a double...I've slowed down these days!
At least one of the local breweries has $1/off pints on the 17th of every month for beer drinkers wearing kilts. There's no way I can't take that deal--I'm frugal....and it's just another great excuse to be kilted!

Man... I wish there was a deal like that around here.

[MT4Runner]

Many, many kilt wearers in Butte tomorrow.
Not many the other 365 days of the year (or 364 days of 2011 or 2013!).

It would make for easy planning of a Kilt night.


Hmm...I know the manager of one of the breweries up here...I should talk her into it, too!

Our policy on advertising, promotion and product reviews

Advertising
Our members want access to a wide array of kilts and kilt related products and services. To provide this we have accepted paid advertising from companies who wish to present their products to our membership.
Advertising is defined as:

"A form of communication used to encourage, persuade, drive or induce an audience to take or continue some action concerning a commercial offering. It can be used to change or reinforce consumer behavior or offer assurances to consumers. Advertising often involves repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate certain qualities with the image or name.
Advertising does not always involve the direct sale of a good or service. An example would be the case of a public service announcement. If the result is an increase in awareness of a good or service it is advertising."

Any member of the forum who produces a kilt or kilt related product and who wishes to advertise on the forum will be directed to our advertising plan for details of our ad space and rates.

No other advertising will be allowed with the exceptions as listed in this policy.

Product Reviews & Endorsements

One of the functions of X Marks is to allow open and honest reviews of kilts, kilt accessories, and other kilt related products.

Product Reviews are the best way for new members to gain information about suppliers. We encourage our members to post Product Reviews. All reviews must be about a product purchased for the members own use. Product reviews must contain only verifiable factual information.

Negative product reviews are also encouraged as an important warning to other potential buyers, but the reviewer must be very careful not to denigrate or libel the manufacturer or supplier. Negative reviews must contain only verifiable factual information.

Any review of a product from one of our advertisers who have a dedicated section of the forum should be posted in the appropriate section.

Rule #12– The topic of discussion on this forum is the kilt. Discussions veering off the topic or discussions or photos which stress topics other than the kilt will be subject to removal
