    I had a Horrible Kilted Nightmare

    Guys, I had the most terrifying kilted nightmare. For some reason I was going somewhere for an event and it required that I wear a kilt suit that was being shipped to me especially for the occassion. It was the night of the event and I opened the box for the first time only to see that it was a kilt & argyle jacket made entirely out of seer sucker material! Yes, that intentionally wrinkled light blue & white striped material so dear to the hearts of Southern Gentlemen.

    When I wore pants I always loved wear seersucker suits during the summer heat, but it was absolutely nightmarish as a kilt.

    I'm so glad that when I awoke there was no such monstrosity hanging in my closet.

    Some people have nighmares about being eaten by demons. Glassman has nightmares about wearing seersucker.

    Hmmm.


    I just looked it up: The word originates from the Hindi, Urdu, and Persian words "shir o shakar" meaning "milk and sugar."

    In all honesty, I should be thankfull for the seersucker nightmare. It kept me away from the night terrors I still have where I relive my experiences on 9-11 or worse.

    Being a boston swamp-yankee myself, I find that most things people here in the south wear would be hellish in a kilt.

    Yeah seersucker wouldn't be the worst. I was anticipating something like a see-through kilt or one of those dreams where it keeps falling off in public or something like that.
    [FONT=Trebuchet MS][I][COLOR=Navy]Madame, rarely will you meet a more prejudiced man nor one who tells himself he keeps his mind more open. But cannot that be because one part of our mind, that which we act with, becomes prejudiced through experience and still we keep another part completly open to observe and judge with?[/COLOR][/I]

    I can only imagine what it must have been like, and the sacrifices you and hundreds of others made in trying so save people. I think about it everyday. Well will never forget.

    LOL...I also had a nightmare last night.

    The Isle of Skye kilt I returned to Lochcarron for repair came back as a white cotton kilt with flags (Welsh, Irish, Saltire) printed on it

    I woke up sweating and with a very bad mood...took me 3 espressos to recover.

    I think I need to order a kilt today
