Kilted at friend's daughter's wedding ...
Broke out the Scotland Forever for a wedding of the daughter of a family friend. Bride's mother loves purple ")
Was asked "the question" ...
... wait for it
... "how long have you been in this country?"
My bride almost choked back tears ��
She said I should have replied back in Gaelic ... any phrase.
My bride's a sept of Clan MacDonald (MacBride); I suspect that her not correcting my crooked tie was malicious neglect imparted to a proud member of Clan Campbell (MacVicar).

Shoot ... attack of the rotated photo is back "(

It could have been worse. The bride could have adjusted your tie while commenting, "Bless your heart". You know of the syrupy sweet backhanded way a Southern Belle can make those words sound. I think all is well on both fronts. Good showing in my opinion.

Hello and welcome from Houston, TX. I like the bow-tie! (I wear one every now and then)

A crooked bow tie just shows you tied it yourself, nothing wrong with that. Congratulations to the happy couple.
