    We Got Crazied At

    Greetings kilted friends,

    I joined up here about a year ago but haven't been around much. But I'm settling down a bit so I thought i would share a fun kilt stories with you. A couple of weeks ago, I and my friend Colin were on vacation in Southern California. On one of those days, Colin and I were walking down the beach near the Pier in Santa Monica. Colin was wearing his Irish National tartan and I was wearing my Stewart Black. As we were walking, we noticed a strange character sitting on the wall which separates the paved sidewalk from the beach sand. He noticed our kilts right away and asked "Hey, why you guys wearing skirts?" To which I replied "when I get enough Guinness in me I don't have time to be f***ing with a zipper." He thought that was a good answer. Now for the kicker. The strange character was Actor Gary Busey. So Gary Busey crazied at us. That was a strange day indeed.

    Strange indeed!

    The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

    I think I would rather come across a rabid badger than Busey.
    There are two kinds of people in this world. The Scots and those who wish they were.

    Gary Busey is all kinds of crazy. I forget who said it, but somebody suggested there should be a new reality show where somebody has to spend 30 minutes with Gary Busey in a stalled elevator.
