    New Balmoral Traditional 8 Yard

    I Recived My New Balmoral Traditional 8 Yard 16 Oz In The Allison Tartan, The Other Day. Its Good To See That Homeland Security Is Keeping America Safe From Kilts. It Was Held Up By Customs For A Day Till I Gave Them My Ss#. Now Im Getting A $107.00 Tarif Laid On It.
    But Anyway Iv Worn It To The Boogie Down Zoo. Thats The Bronx Zoo For Those Outside Of This Part Of The World. 3 Femal I Like The Kilt And 1 Male. Look Thats A Man In A Kilt As If I Was One Of The Animals In The Zoo. And I Just Took My 32 Degree In The Scottish Rite Valley Of New York This Past Sat. 05/19/07.

    Congrats on the new kilt!!! Let me be the first from the chorus to ask for pictures!
    "A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Brother Keith,

    I hope your REUNION went well, I have not worn my kilt to a Scottish Rite meeting. But I have worn it to a York Rite Chapter meeting. I am working on doing a full kilted degree in my mother Lodge.

    Let me guess. You had it shipped by Fedex from Kiltstore. Even so, the customs fee should only be 12.5% of the declared value for wool goods, plus a $25 vig for Fedex. There a numerous threads about the unpleasant surprise you get with your overseas kilt purchases.
