Anyone who knows me knows how I feel about this. You may ask yourself why, since I’m Puerto Rican and have absolutely no ties to Scotland. But there you have it.
I love kilts. I love men wearing kilts. Quasimodo could wear a kilt and I would drool. Really.
At the last Holiday Ball we attended, there was a gentleman who wore his clan’s tartan, and I just kept staring!! Hubby took pity on me, and went over to ask him if he would dance with me. He was very nice, and told me about his tartan and stories about wearing the kilt to social functions. He was afraid people would make fun of his attire, until I pointed out that there were several women waiting for him to finish dancing so they could have their turn. He was rather happy after that.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go fan myself π

Quasimodo, I am not. He would look better in a kilt than I would. Mentioned it to my wife once, and it was two days before she quit laughing.

You should try a Southern accent. That’ll freak them out π

Yeah…I could probably cure you of your kilt addiction, but I won’t be responsible for your brain bleach addiction.

It’s not the kilt, it’s what’s under it that counts. You know, like Underoos.

Barring the formal garb that Sir Sean Connery is wearing, those are not even walking kilts. None of those are REAL kilts, they are “Vera Wang” fashion kilts . . . not even Ewan McGregor is wearing a real kilt.
You are being deceived, Ms.Aggie!
Pathetic. Little more than jumping onto the lady gaga “LOOK AT ME I NEED ATTENTION!!!” fashion train.
As authentic as those “fearless urban warriors” bravely wearing “Gucci-Flage” I want to see hit by a bus while they are plugged into their ipod.
Kilts as a matter of history, do not reach very far. They had yet not taken on as fashion during the events depicted in Braveheart, becoming popular at the close of the 15th Century. Approximately a century after William Wallace . . . whose rebellion was less significant than Andrew de Moray’s in the north of Scotland at the time.
The bagpipes featured in the score are not Scotish either, they are Uilliean Pipes – Irish – that were not invented until the 17th Century. As a son of Irishmen, I know the sound of both Scotish and Irish pipes.
Insulting.
Nothing against your desire for a hearty man in a kilt, Ms.Aggie, but I take exception to the fact you are being CHEATED!
It angers me when I see a Lady being deliberately short-changed, as that is something beneath contempt.
Only Sir Sean Connery is authentic . . . I suspect most women would agree.
And he punched out the most interesting man in the world, you know . . .

To be honest, it is Sean Connery who makes me drool out of all of them. So all’s good as far as I’m concerned π
Don’t kill the dream!!!

“I do not often get punched in the mouth and laid flat . . . but when I do . . . it is Sean Connery who does it.”
Stay pompous, my friends . . .
THWAK!
