    Kilt in Christmas Show

    So, tonight my kids and I were watching the classic Christmas kids show "Santa Claus is Coming To Town", you know the one, narrated by Fred Astair, with the Burgermeister Meisterburger? He hates toys. About 2/3 of the way through it, the Burgermeister, who is in a wheel chair, stands up and kicks a toy soldier...then sits back down into the spear the soldier is holding. Turns out that the soldier is kilted!

    Who knew?
