So half an hour ago I was leaving Stanford Hospital to make a run to See's Candies at Stanford Shopping Center before returning with loot to the friend I'm visiting, who'll be there one more night and checking out tomorrow. I'd just exited the building in front of the cafeteria when a guy sitting on a bench called out, "Nice Marine kilt!"

Happens that I'm wearing my Stillwater Heavyweight in Leatherneck tartan in honor of Memorial Day.
