    Looks like the kids had fun digging through their closets looking for something different to put together. We see a lot worse on the runways. The kilts are pretty stock at least. Halloween IS just around the corner - you know...

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    I think the hair do's bug me more than the outfits! LOL For the most part I think it's safe to say that far worse has been done and on far greater scale. It's actually nice to see a significantly younger generation trying to express itself and uses the kilt as a vehicle. Evolution may be painful, but it is necessary so good on 'em!

    I don't really mind the clothing no matter what antics they get up to - but I do have a lingering regret that no one has yet managed to create a device that does housework.

    The flying car, interplanetary travel and the like I can do without no problem, but the lack of - for instance - an automatic vacuum cleaner has been something of a disappointment.

    Hoping a fashion catches on (being kilted) and seeing it pre- catch on (modern out-of-control kilting) in ways never imagined...

    ...the very few "real" hard-nosed Highlanders in the real Scotland likely feel the same horror toward we "free-interpreters" across the surface of the globe.


    "POLO SHIRTS!? SCRUNCHED HOSE!? KILTS WITH POCKETS!? NYLON SPORRANS WITH ZIPPERS!? LEATHER KILT JACKETS!? MINIATURE FIGHTING KNIVES AS SGAIN DUBHS!? CAMPAIGN HATS WITH KILTS!? STEAMPUNK LEATHER KILTS!? PLAYING INSTRUMENTS OTHER THAN PIPES OR DRUMS WHILE KILTED!?

    Just remember the games are probably run by volunteers. They meet once a month and think up new things for the next years games......
