Learning the Power of the Kilt

Reading McMurdo's thread about his bookstore experience today, reminded me of my experience yesterday.

After the St. Patrick's parade, I was standing, waiting at the light rail station in the middle of Central Ave in Phoenix. A lady drove by and yelled out the car window, "NICE KILT!" loud enough for everyone around to hear. Ya gotta love it. I yelled back, "THANKS!" Made my day.

The power of the kilt knows no bounds! Even if some may think it a strange sight to see a man in a kilt, they generally love the the look.

The power of the kilt can be as splashy as a wave crashing on a beach like your situation today, or as quiet as the undertow. Yesterday while getting a bite to eat at a local burrito joint, a young lady came up behind me and appeared by my side, tapped my thigh and murmured in my ear, "I love your kilt." It was a strangely intimate moment that left me feeling like her boyfriend had reason to be jealous.

Regards,
Rex.

I attended the Seattle St Paddy's parade yesterday and a good time was had by all. There were numerous occasions that young women approached to ask if they might have their picture taken with me or the group; I said of course, but it will cost you a kiss; none refused to kiss me. It may have rained on the parade but the Sun was shinning in my heart.
