Since several of us live in Dallas and Dallas is a name in the MacKintosh clan should we all be wearing a kilt of it?

The city and county of Dallas seem to be named after an offspring of Scots immigrants; George Mifflin Dallas, the U.S. Vice President under James Polk.

Dallas has a family tartan;

Or you could go with the Texas Bluebonnet.

I do like the look of the Dallas tartan, better than the bluebonnet.

Have to agree with you on that. The Dallas tartan is much more interesting. Seen Texas Bluebonnet as a kilt, and it has a bit too much white for my taste. Would be interesting to see Dallas tartan pleated.
