    I've heard it all now

    So this afternoon I stop in to a Wal-Mart (I know I hate them too, but sometimes you just have to go there). I'm in line and the cashier says, "That's a cool looking kilt." I way thanks, and then she asks, "Are you a Druid?"

    Just had to share.

    We used to get that all the time in the old local Celtic Society because of the supposed association between "Celtic" culture and neo-paganism.

    Cheers,

    My personal favourite was the time I was at the Goderich Celtic Festival and heading up from the parking lot with my wife. Couple of yahoos drove by shouting, "Irish suck". We cracked up.

    I hate it when some chickencrap coward does a drive by shouting.

    Really makes me want to catch them somehow and pound them into a greasy spot on the pavement.

    She was probably trying to pick you up. You should have said, "Yes, would you like to see my Stonehenge?"

    At least half the people who've commented on my kilt have asked if I were Irish.

    Just remember, the Irish saved Civilization. And the Scots spread it around the world, often at bayonet point.
