			Giving thanks to XMarks
		
			
				
					Today in the United States is Thanksgiving Day.  While we should be grateful for our blessings all year, today most Americans are more likely to express those feelings.  I would like to express my gratitude for this forum, and the many good friends I have found here, most of whom I haven't met yet!  You have helped me in wearing my kilts with a bit more flair than I would have otherwise.  More importantly, you have helped me live my life with a bit more flair than I would have otherwise.  
 So I thank the Good Lord for this place and its inhabitants.

					Amen Geoff, I'd like to second your sentiments.  Without XMarksTheScot I'd be floundering when it comes to "proper" kilting.  I too have met many kind and thoughtful folks on here from all over the world that I would not have had the chance to otherwise.

					I too would like to extend my thanks to the many members of this site. Despite being a new member, I have been reading for a little over a year or so and have benefited greatly from the wisdom, hospitality, and openness of the rabble that congregate here. Without you, I might have avoided this addiction.   [B] - Sean
