So, a few times a year I get invited to the local High School to teach about the basics of drugs and alcohol. How various drugs kill people, metabolism of alcohol, etc.

Today was the first day I've done it kilted. School colors are Black and Red, and today is game day for the football team: so wore my Black Stuart SportKilt with a clan kiltpin, black sporran, black kilt hose (okay soccer sox), and black hooded sweatshirt with the school logo on the front....and Black Stuart tartan boxer shorts just in case...

Was around campus and in the school halls between classes a lot. Only one "skirt" comment. Only one "why" comment. Only one "Are you Scottish?" question. Many many "cool!" comments, most from young men headed the other way in the hall between classes.

Don't know that I could have done high school kilted 47 years ago...but it works as an old bird. My compliments to the young men in high school who do go kilted.
