    I was born eccentric, so I took to the kilt like an Irishman takes to whiskey. My first outing was only about a half hour after my first kilt arrived, and I was more than comfortable going out in public kilted. It was almost natural to me.

    But yes, eccentric I am, to a fault at times; but I enjoy being me

    The more you wear the more you'll feel like yourself. I attempted to wear shorts to Tucson today but couldn't bring myself to keep them on. Definately not as comfortable as my canvas kilt. The only place I felt a little weird was at a sushi restaurant where the Itamae-san was a little agawk when I said Ama "ebi o kudasai, omakase" (Translated, Sweet shrimp please and you choose what I'll have next). I had never been in this restaurant before. I think he didln't expect a guy in a kilt to order in Japanese (I speak many languages in food dialect only). So it probably wasn't the kilt that caused the reaction. O'Neille
