Overhearing People

[Frank McGrath]

I have overheard lots of comments from the most vile to the nicest. I just tend to ignore them. The people that have the nerve to say something to my face get the response.

While i was taking my son to see my wife for his mid- morning nursing (he is 4 months old) a gentleman called out across the parking lot. Hey is that a Kilt? I said Yes it is, am wearing a black UK mocker, his response was. Wow i have never see one living before. what he meant was he had never see one in the flesh. we both went a way with a smile

I just thought it was funny coming home and seeing this topic right when i logged on to XMTS

Kids are the best. i remember my first real outing in public. I decided to go "whole-hog" and wear my new UK survival kilt to a party for my son's school. He's 5 1/2 at the time. all the kids and parent's know me, good friends, so really a situation pretty safe for my ego! As soon as I came in, I started to hear "Mommy, why's Cody's Dad wearing a dress?!" Of course, the more brash youngsters came right up and asked me. I actually converted one of the other Dads, who wore a UK to the next event!
