    Kilt on Britain's got talent.

    I was searching online for any news of Susan Boyle as we don't get BGT here in Canada. One name caught my eye as he made it through to the next round for Irish dancing. His name is Cornelius 'Neil" Horan and his youtube clip is below:

    Problem is (beside his kilt being too short) he seems to have a history that might prevent him from becoming a BGT 2009 finalist...

    You mean besides dancing like a chicken?

    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    I have a friend who's an RC ex-priest, so he's in good company. My friend Lee is an Italian American who left the priesthood to marry, and wound up getting a divorce, which of course is against RC doctrine, but he's still a Catholic. I don't see why chasing women (short of any adultery) should disqualify him from being a priest, but then the last Catholic in my family was my grandfather.

    It's all about Power and Control. The RC has always been that way!

    I did see the broadcast here but it looks like the clip has been "disabled by request."

    It is a rather interesting thread chaps, but let's keep it on topic about a kilt on Britain's Got Talent and away from the religious aspects of the performer.
    "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

    I've deleted the clip and added the link. Rex, what is wrong with his dancing? He dances as well as I do!

    I don't even want to watch! Those shows make me cringe! I used to watch the auditions for the first couple of seasons of AI, but lost interest due to large volume of "talent" shows on TV. I'll take everyone's word that the kilt was too short and the dancing was bad. I think Grant's opinion is clouded by his poultry-love!
