    Doctor, Doctor! Prescription, Please!

    I had to go to the doctor today, wearing baggy shorts. Wiithout going into details, he gave me a prescription for a cream, a pill, and "loose clothing." I asked for clarification. He said, "No pants, if you can help it." So, I said, "How about a kilt?" He laughed and said, "Sure! That would work perfectly!" Then, I explained about my optional clothing.

    Proscribed in 1747; prescribed in 2008.

    I had to call my brother, who is not crazy about the kilt, and tell him. He doesn't believe me.

    Happy to oblige, doc!

    That's GREAT; although having a condition that caused it may not be delightful. I suppose that there is always a bright side. Give a whistle.......

    That's a HOOT! A medical reason to go kilted!
    Things I've learned in life:
    What you focus on becomes your reality.
    You can't control what other people do or say, you can only control how you respond.
    Don't act your age, it's not healthy.

    Hey!! For those of you who have to wear uniform pants, with a doctor's prescription, you could wear a kilt.

    Jack, I think your doctor should be considered for Surgeon General of the US.

    Yeah, hey, what would really rock is if he would actually prescribe it, then maybe you could buy a SWK wool or two, and submit it to the insurance to pay. (I would say a tank, but lets face it, that would take to long to get for the script I would think.)
