    Pasadena sensation!

    Some buddies took me to the Rose Bowl Swapmeet in Pasadena yesterday. They wore p*nts, being timid souls, I had on my black Amerikilt, a T-shirt, Belt & hose. I created somewhat of a sensation. Very positive. Vendors (both sexes) would call out "Hey, love the kilt!" Several guys came up and asked me how to find them on the web, was it as cool and comfortable as it looked (my buddies were sweating, I was not). The ladies were particularly attentive also. One guy with his wife said; "I really like that, I REALLY like that!' His wife smiled but was non committal. It was a nice experience in such a crowd, plus I was cool & comfy on a hot day. Kilts Rule!!

    You can tell by the way he walks, he's a ladies man no time to talk!

    Great outing! Where I am I get so used to the challenges and negatives that I recently went out and got so many compliments I did not how to act. Nice ain't it?
