    I'm amused too. It's funny they would choose a bagpiper for that.

    Fantastic, all least the pleats are not in the front!!!! Who ever did it actually must know what a bagpipers is and what bagpipes look like. Hmmm maybe ask who made it and see if they actually wear a kilt. If they do send to Xmarks... opps or is that too cultish behavior? (other thread about cults ).

    Maybe next time I am in Wegmans, I take alook for it. (Rochester is the birthplace of Wegmans)

    Yesterday I went into Wegman's kilted for the first time since I started this thread. "Scottish Bob" is still there, except now he's saying "What did I forget today?" I'm not sure that's an improvement.
    Anyhow, when the cashier asked me if I found everthing I was looking for, I replied that I hadn't forgotten anything, and if he checked for anything else, I would be talking to his manager. He hadn't realized that I was wearing a kilt until I made that remark. He got the "Oh s*** What am I supposed to do?" look on his face and just stopped ringing up my groceries. I told him I was joking and got him to start working the register again.
    Was this a cruel thing to do? Yes. But he handled it much better than the manager standing at the next register - after one glance, she scurried away!
    I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

    Good one, Wompet. Maybe you should have told the manager that the display was offensive…
