    Kilt causes Texas game wardens concern

    From the Texarkana Gazette:

    Some hunters just aren’t that smart
    Thursday, October 13, 2005 9:27 AM CDT
    Column By Chuck Sanderson
    Texarkana Gazette


    Field Dressed—Wardens were checking a hunting camp right after dark. When the occupants of the camp came out to greet them, the wardens were somewhat concerned that one of the male hunters was wearing a dress or skirt. Being the professionals they are, they continued with the contact and found that the hunter had been successful in killing two turkeys, one of which was untagged and the other was improperly tagged. While receiving his citation, the Tarrant County hunter asked the wardens, “How do you like my new hunting dress?” They replied that it was nice, but it might be a little cool. The hunter replied that the wind did cause some problems. The dress turned out to be a “camouflage kilt.” The hunter’s wife stated that this was the new fad in hunting apparel, and she had bought the kilt for him.

    Yup, some hunters just aren't smart. He should have tagged those turkeys properly.
    Keep an open mind, but not so open that your brain falls out.

    I might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level I'm really quite busy.

    Now you know that once a wife accepts her husband wearing kilts, she will have to take over buying them so that he dresses himself right!;)

    I did a few years of grad work there in plant physiology (early 90's); finished the coursework but not the research. (Put my head through a windshield and spent a year relearning to walk and talk, etc.) So an aggie, but alas, no ring. BUT, all's well that ends well. The friends I made there are still the best! The very best in the world.
