Often and most annoyingly they were usually right , as the answer, more often than not, was "no" and over the years and after they have been long gone, they are STILL right. Dammit!
    Ah yes Jock but this is not the subject here. Nobody needs more than one kilt, but I believe that even your good self have several.

    Kyle himself doesn't need more that one daywear jacket but, then again, I believe that he owns several.

    It is a luxury to be able to afford to buy something that is wanted, as opposed to something that is needed.

    I believe that it was Oscar Wilde who stated: "The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it... I can resist everything but temptation".
