    Enjoy the Ball
    I think Irish Jack was having a go at our joey.

    Now, Joey, you know the Mohawks didn't wear feather war bonnets. But a Gustowah could look quite sharp with a tailcoat.

    Not a go at joey, who by heritage has some right to wear feathers, but rather a go at those very kilt police who lend authority to so-called "chiefs" and their right to have any say-so whatsoever in what clothing a freeborn man might sport.

    And yes, SlackerDrummer, the Gustowah would look good with a tailcoat or, better, a kilt!
