    New (but short) jonesing begins...

    This morning, my wife (I'm still getting used to saying that!) asked me to place an order with Stillwater Kilts.

    Her employer has a shindig planned for December, and she wants me "appropriately dressed."

    The theme is "Black and White" so the Weathered Lochaber just wouldn't work...

    I'm now eagerly awaiting my delivery of a Nightstalker... which if all reports have been accurate, should be here in just a few seconds.

    Oh, well, here's your opportunity to bear it like a real man!

    Yes, it is here.

    Ordered Thursday morning, arrived Saturday afternoon.

    Stillwater comes through again.

    Ordered a Nightstalker yesterday. Couldn't resist the Irish Saffron heavyweight wool so got that too. Will probably take a wee bit longer to get all the way down here to Key West. But I should have them in time for my conference in Tucson the 27th.

    I will try a title

    This reminds me of something my wife hates. I just wanted to chime in here on guys who say, "THE wife..." My wife hates that term and I suppose many other wives do too. So guys, if you are saying, "THE wife..." or "The Ol' Lady" you might want to try just saying "MY wife..." or better yet for those that know her, use her name. You will score points and even come across much better than you are now.

    I don't mean to offend those who say this, but the wives appreciate it!

    OK, web forum fixers, I got a message stating I need to add five characters since my message was too short. Is this a bug or do you want us to type more? Well it said it again, a message came up stating I need to lengthen my message by five characters as it was too short. Let's see if it works now.

    Ahhh, I had used greater than and lesser than signs to note the below. That is what it was asking.


    I deleted rest of quote and am adding words here too as it still won't let me send it. I had my comments inside his quote, maybe now it will work.

    You don't have to be Scottish to be comfortable!
