A Jones-free Newsome Kilt!?!?
Is such a thing possible?
...only when someone who loves you (in this case, my mom) is crafty enough to order a kilt for you in secret! 
If I had woken up in the morning with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn't have been more surprized!
Ross. Ancient colors. 16oz. worsted. Nine box pleats (might get a pleat shot up tomorrow).

That is excellent, congratulations.

Merry Christmas 
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

Lovely. I'd wish you a very merry Christmas but clearly there's no need for wishing - you're already there!
May the rest of the day and the coming year be as joyful, if perhaps less surprising....
