    Smile #1 is Here

    My first Kilt just came in Monday I love the look of it The folks at Freedom kilts really did a beautiful job on it. I have tryed it on and it fits great I will be wearing it to my parents Thanksgiving feast tomorrow, they are supportive of it. my grandparents who will be there may not be so but to me their opinion doesn't matter much I will go proud of myself and where I am headed.

    I can do that if my parents digital camera is working tomorrow, I spent my money on a kilt. my old film based camera was working ok and I needed freedom from the jeans of oppression.

    you may be underestmating the allure of the kilt, its pretty impressive when worn as you know. Your grandparents will probably admire you and congratulate you for wearing your kilt.
    by the way what are 'white wolves games'?

    White wolf games are a RPG/Story telling games involving Vampires, Werewolves, Ghosts, MAges, and Humans set in a darker version of today.

    "you may be underestmating the allure of the kilt, its pretty impressive when worn as you know"

    Its not the allure of the kilt that I am underestimating unfortunatly it is the ignorance of my grandparents that I am expecting, they are opposed to anything they are not used to including spicy foods, modes of dress, running cars, and such.
