Ah... The world according to Mel Brookes. Then the universe according to Mel Brookes. I do remember those, Nighthawk.

Ain't life wonderful.

I have no idea what that had to do with my post... And in all honestly, I never claim to be Scottish. I'm American. I happen to have Scottish blood. And Irish, and English and German. When asked, I answer "No- a New World Celt." Because in truth, that's what I am. Haggis, tartan and the likes are just nice perks of having grown up in a Celtic household. So do you think my Celtic Jedi look could benefit from a modern solid color kilt? Like maybe a black Amerikilt?

Yes sir! I just got my own copy of A Christmas Story. Yes, life is wonderful.

And just for the record, I'm not Scottish either; I'm a New-Mexican -Arizonian-American... And a desert hermit.

Ahhh text speak. What a joy! and so much easier to read and simpler to write than proper English. Why have silly rules regarding spelling and puntuation when it's so much nicer and freer to just do it your own way.

All rules are just silly!

That's NOT silly! u r steal r heretige.

Also just for the record, we don't really have haggis in New Mexico; we have menudo or worse!

I hate text speak. I had a hard time interpreting that myself.

Even when I text, I refuse to use text speak.

Nighthawk me ol' mate...

It's either a top dollar, fly in-fly out windup or the originator has issues. Don't take it personally. I think your kilted pics are ACE and more power to you; AND your family!

I hate bloody text speak too by the way!!
