    I've always said that if any of those kinds of shows ever approached me, they'd be glad I can't run, because it would give them a chance to get away. If I was kilted at the time, I'd sure give running a shot (might catch 'em if they're slow enough). I fell asleep and woke up to the "before and after" segment of one of those shows once, and it convinced me that the whole lot of them need to be shot out of a very large cannon. There's a giant zarking difference between fashion and style. I'm almost never in fashion, but I always have style.

    The first thing I thought was no way would I go through with it, but on second thought if they were to furnish me with a new kilt, dress sporran, etc...

    That would be fine with me.

    Yeah, if they approached me with that offer, maybe. But you know that that type is likely to, if they give you a kilt, chop 6 inches off the bottom and ask you to wear high heels with it. *shiver*

    On the other hand, it might be interesting to see them take a guy from trousers to kilted....

    That's an idea. If we could sell a network on it, it could be a whole new breed of that show. For a title, how 'bout: "Making a Real Man" !

    Yea I was thinking the same thing, he always looks classy and I bet he wouldn't mind being in a kilt.

    It would certainly make a change from a basque and suspenders!

    Yeah, like some over priced trousers that were probably made in some sweat shop would be better than a $350+ kilt.

    Although, a "Scottish Ambush Makeover" would be interesting.

    Anyway, I'm not a fan of the "Reality Programing." I believe it takes work away from actual actors and actresses. I'm a musician, so I'll always have an artists take on it.. Back to the kilt talk!

    If some stranger with a camera crew came up to me whilst I'm kilted, and offered to give me a makeover???? They would probably get a polite ear full on how much better a kilt is than trousers, and how it could be bad taste to suggest to someone who is kilted that trousers are better. I would then say; "if you have another kilt waiting for me to wear, that I would participate."
