    my first "question"

    I was at lunch last week with some business acquintances and we were talking about our hobbies. One guy showed us pictures of his prize 1948 fully restored "Woody", really nice. I could almost hear the Beach Boys and Jan & Dean.

    I got around to discussing my scottish activities and Mr Woody asked if I had a kilt. I gave him the details of my Lamont ancient. Then he asked the "question", I just smiled and he asked the "question" again.

    It got real quiet at the table so I asked him if he polished his "Woody" very often. The subject of superbowl then was the topic of discussion.
