    Great Comment @ San Diego Highland Games

    This past Saturday I hosted my Father-in-Law at the SD Highland Games in Vista. He's an enthusiastic McAllister. While there he ordered his first Kilt (said with an evil grin, it's so cool being a Kiltish influence... ha, ha, ha,ha).

    I was disappointed to not bump into any X-Markers, but during the opening exercises I had an interesting experience. A lovely lady approached me to ask some questions about the massed pipe bands. I answered to the best of my ability, then added that I was only a spectator. She smiled and said that she had made an assumption since i was kilted. I quickly replied, Madame life is too short to wear ugly trousers. She smiled and said, "Yes, especially if you have the legs for it!" To which I simply blushed.

    The Kilt is a powerful tool, be sure to only use it for good!

    Cheers,

    Marshal Moroni
