Dueling with Slowpokes
So I'm in line at the supermarket. A grubby guy in his 40s stocking up on beer is behind me. I'm in my new Scott Modern Red hand sewn kilt. He speaks.
GG: "What tartan is that?"
Me:"Scott"
GG: " I know its scotch, what tartan is it?"
Me: "Scott"
GG: "I'm probably more scotch than you are, what tartan is it?"
Me: "Clan Scott its a border clan, a proud clan, a very large clan."
GG: "Clan Scotch?"
Me: "No, S-C-O-T-T....scotch is a drink, Scott is a clan."
GG:"Oh..."
Then he starts listing his clans and what their tartans are like...he gets to Muir....I interrupt and say that Muir is a beautiful tartan...he looks at me..."It is?"
I'm gone...
I'm sure he's more scotch than I am...probably more beer too...
