    Red face Gerard Butler

    A girl at work e-mailed me a link to a web site with the topic line of “Order me one.” I clicked on it & it was a long page of pictures of Gerard Butler in what looked like a leather Utilikilt. I hit the my internal phone system button to instantly connect with her & said “Those leather kilts are expensive! Are you nuts? I can’t bring in one of those even through the Special Orders Department.” Now while I am saying this I am slowly scrolling through the pictures. She responds “ I don’t want the kilt, dummy. I want what’s IN that kilt.” About this time I get to a pic of him holding a claymore. I exclaim “Dang! look at the size of that guys claymore. She laughs. I don’t really take notice. She asks “How does that compare to your claymore, David?” I respond “I don’t have a claymore.” She busts out laughing …. THEN it hits me. All I could say was “OK you got me.”

    Funny.
    I've seen those pictures I think they were from a dressed to kilt event a few years ago, and the kilt I believe is from TFCK

    I'm pretty sure my wife has more than a little crush on him. Ah, if I could just speak with a brogue...
    .. the kilt had concealed a blaster strapped to one thigh and a knife to the other. He was aware of the present gentle customs against personal weapons, but he felt naked without them. Such customs were nonsense anyhow, foolishment from old women - there was no such thing as "dangerous weapons," only dangerous people.
