    Well Blu, while I need to update my inventory, I guess I've spent about $4000 over the last 2-3 years on kilts and accessories.
    I've spent the same on other things that have not nearly brought the same pleasure and had the same impact on my life.

    Worth every penny!
    Also, coming to know some of the kiltmakers here has saved a LOT of money (USAK, RKilts, Freedomkilts, Bear etc)

    When you consider that this stuff is likely to outlast you by ay least a generation, I'd have to say that's a good value for your dollar. And since you've got a young "upandcommer" waiting to take over, the worth of your legacy will be appreciated.

    Aye Moosehead, you're a wise man.

    As a long time licensed subtance abuse counselor and old' drunk myself I can tell you for a fact that addiction NEVER presents without denial. That's very true.

    But, I'm not addicted, really, others have more kilts than I...They might be addicted, but not me...no way.

    I'm with you Ron, I can stop any time I want! Truly! The Xmarks run #2 was just a fluke. I just HAD to order that!
