I had a fellow literally run after me one day to ask about investment advice on a some small British company I had never heard of, all due to the power of the kilt.
At least your question makes more sense.

Well next time someone assks that question tell them that the best haggis comes from the wee butcher shop next to the locks (not lochs) in Fort Augustus.
And I'm so very glad that I can say that from personal experience. I can't wait to go back!

Obviously something good is goingon here. The kilt is being identified as something at least Scottish, if not Celtic. One has to wonder though, what those people were doing asking for advice on haggis. Either they were late and confused about St. Patrick's Day, or possibly celebrating some vernal equinox event. Can anyone else come up with an occassion for haggis other than Burns Supper; any Scottish holiday, whether real, imagined, or made up; or, if you are like me, just 'cause you like it?

St. Andrew's Day, Tartan Day, Hogmanay...or any day I'm hungry.

We had chicken balmoral tonight (chicken stuffed with haggis) and tomorrow will have Baxter's Haggis Broth follwoed up by Mackintosh's Haggis, Neeps and tatties. Here in Scotland, Haggis is eaten all year round.

And here in Fredericksburg, also. The only better than haggis is single malt.

Maybe one of them was starting to rediscover their roots, and they felt a good haggis was cheaper than a Kilt (Tank).

While on the subject of haggis... I'm a bachelor this weekend and thought I'd grab some (since the wife don't like it...). Anyone know of a place to get decent haggis in Dallas, TX. Seriously. Stop laughing.
