    Man, if I had known that all I had to do to get rid of my ex-wife sooner was to wear a kilt, I'd had done it YEARS ago!

    Everyone, repeat after me -

    "I'm going to take note of Craig's disclaimer and I'm going to leave well enough alone. Mike will delete my message if I make any mention of or comments about said disclaimer."

    Just keep repeating that and all will be well. Trust me.

    Welcome to X Marks, Craig.

    Welcome Home!

    I still remember my first time out. I discovered that I had sweat glands in places that I never knew existed!

    Do tell. My first time out kilted involved a lot of standing around in a stuffy, overheated theater. Rivulets of sweat trickling down both thighs... not the most comfortable feeling in the world. :rolleyes:

    That's the first sensation I had to get used to when wearing the kilt. It's really a little weird the first time it happens.

    To Lex Mundi and Craig,

    Welcome aboard the good ship X Marks! She has a few leaks, our rudder is a bit warped, and our sail is a tad tattered. But she's yar. You've joined a merry crew (of kilted pirates. ) Enjoy the voyage and Welcome!

    Cheers from a California X Marker and Utilikiltarian

    My first time out was with a group of kilted gentlemen so I felt a little secure. The second time was alone and as the time went by I was more and more relaxed. The third time I didn't even think about it, it was just normal to me. Relax and have fun! Oh yeah, welcome aboard.
