    Absolutely bizarre!

    I had decided to bake some cinnamon bread this afternoon, and remembered we were out of bread yeast. I threw on a kilt and headed for Costco. I wandered around trying the samples, and checking out the new merchandise for Christmas. Finally, I grab a package of yeast ($3.39) and head for checkout.

    On my way out to my truck, I hear someone behind me say "Look at that guy. He went shopping in a skirt."

    A female voice says "It's not a skirt, it's a kilt. He's probably a bagpiper." I sneak a peak over my shoulder. Behind me is a a tall, gaunt man, probably in his late fifties/early sixties. Next to him is a prune-faced lady, roughly the same age.

    "It's not a kilt, it's a skirt," the man says. "He's probably a homo."

    "It's a kilt," the woman says, "and you're a jackass. That's why I'm divorcing you."

    "You're divorcing me because you're a B****," the guy says.

    "I may be a B****," she tells him, "but at least I know how I'm getting home." By now, I'm at my truck, so I watch as she gets in the driver's side of a car, while he yanks at the passenger side door handle. She backs out and leaves him standing there.

    OMG I was out with a kilted friend yesterday in the Bronx, and a lady stopped and asked if that was...she had to stop and think about the word...a kilt. When I told her that it was, she said that it's what she told her granddaughter, and that it was from Scotland. We both let her know how right she was.

    But THAT story is PRICELESS!!!

    Bet he wished he was in a kilt about 1/2 way home.
    Then again, he probably wouldn't have been walking if he'd have been in a kilt to begin with.

    He might not even have been getting divorced.

    That was a funny story. Classic.

    I guess there are some people who just can't appreciate the beauty of wearing the kilt...and due to their own inadequacy, make fun of it.

    Am I right? No idea. I have no opinion.

    When I was at Walmart this past Friday, I was wearing my kilt...passed a group of 6-8 high school age girls...one yells out "nice skirt!" Then I hear one of the others say, "no, it's a kilt." Then they all started yelling out as I kept walking, "nice kilt!"
