An amusing story

[Clockwork John]

Last weekend I went to see a play with all of the men from my church and a few other people. My priest had brought along a priest from another parish. When he introduced us, he said, "I have to apologize for my young friend here. He doesn't usually dress like this."

I was very confused, because I looked darn good. I was wearing a white shirt, a black tie, black and grey argyle sweater, and grey pants with a subtle tartan-like pattern to them. I couldn't figure out what the heck he was talking about.

So he winks at me, smiles at the other priest, and says, " I can't figure out why on earth he's wearng pants. He usually wears a kilt to this sort of thing."

Even my priest thinks of me as "the kilt guy!"

LOL!! Once people get used to you in a kilt, they feel strange if you wear pantz.

Great story.

It's good when people comment when you are NOT kilted!

I wish my priest was like that!

Ah man, that story's so cool!
Here's one kinda like it:
One day my wife & I stopped in spontaneously to our local Celtic pub, where I had always gone kilted; on this occasion, we were returning from a business function with the local DOT, so I was in jeans.
I thought the reception was a little chilly when we walked in (typically, half the patrons present usually yell out our names), and ten minutes later, the owner/host walks over, gives me an exaggerated frown & stink-eye, then beckons my wife, Debbie, outside to the rear deck, and says to her: "Deb, I don't know who that guy is, but when Cass hears you're steppin' out, he'll strangle him with those britches!"

Bravo, you have established yourself as a true icon of the kilted. I can only hope to acheive that kind of notariety.

Keep wearing kilts out in public and you WILL!

My favorite was from this past summer (I've told the story up here before, but I'll repeat it). Kelly and I went to a '50's Dance' so I had to dress the part. I went with 2tone wing tips, jeans and a white T with rolled up smokes in the sleeve. While walking down a crowded street, another local business owner stopped me and EXCLAIMED (borderline yelled), "I've never seen you with PANTS on before". Needless to say, everyone around me turned and looked to see who the 'crazy guy who never wears pants' was.

Kelly and I got a good laugh.

Funny!

I think kilties are making a bigger and bigger mark everyday.

We keep this up, it's gonna really catch on!
