    Cool! I met a man who lives on my road who happened to ride the school bus driven by a man I used to know in Dover, FL. Small world.

    Is your new friend a kiltie?

    I can't even imagine the conversational wanderings that led to this discovery. . . unless there was an adult beverage or two involved!

    And to the OP, IoS is a gorgeous tartan with no need for "excuse" to wear -- but since you now have one, go for it!

    No beverages at all, Sydnie. When you put two Southerners together, we don't waste any time before we've either determined that we're kin or that we used to live beside somebody who delivered the paper to somebody's neighbor who was the tax collector who had to repossess somebody's bass boat.

    Southerners are a bit like hobbits in this regard.

    For instance, Sydnie, one of my college studio-mates lives in Franklin.
