Yesterday I went with the family to theJuly 4th celebration on the Square in Marietta, sporting a USAK in the weathered Buchanan, wdie-brimmed planters hat, casual boots and hose. I got several nice comments in teh course of the day, but the best was from a man and his wife. He came up to me from his sitting spot on a corner and said

"My wife and I sit here every year people-watching and rate the best ones. I just wanted to say that on a scale of one to ten you sir, are a complete ten."

I've had a lot of comments in my 3 years kilted, but this one is memorable, coming from professional people watchers.
