    Be sure to wrap your ghillie laces in aluminum foil too, otherwise they will act as antennas and transmit thoughts. Or, you can just wear aluminum foil spats if they completely cover the laces.

    You can use a small alligator clip, with attached wire, to ground your sgian dubh blade to the foil.

    Be aware that the aluminum foil manufacturers have been in league with the Evil Geniuses for the last thirty years, and all alufoil manufactured in the United States has micro-circuitry imprinted on it which actually serves to amplify the signals from the orbital mind control lasers.

    I guess I'll have to ask this question in this thread because no one will answer in the other threads I've posted it.
    Ok, what color propeller does one wear in one's aluminum/tartan beanie at a white tie event?
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Great! Thanks!

    Now, I also need to know how to hide the string that you pull to make your bowtie spin. Wouldn't want your pull-string showing at a white tie event.

    Ted, the best made ones are retractable, like the pull string on a child's talking doll, hidden behind the bow
