    Greetings from Finland!

    Hello everyone. I've been lurking around here for a while now and finally decited to join. Like said in the title, I'm from Finland. I have no scottish or irish ancestry, but I love tartans, so I try to find universal tartan kilts (not always easy, when you are a poor film student and have to order your kilts outside of Finland...) I bought my first kilt a bit over a month ago and I'm now buying my second one. There are not many kilted people in my country, but I'm determined to change that.

    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    Always glad to have another kiltie on the board with us!
    "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
