Last night, I watched about 40 big strapping men
wearing kilts (my God there is nothing like a man in a kilt) and marching as they played bagpipes and drums. Ooohh it was so cool. Especially when they played Scotland the Brave. Any of you big strapping men out there have kilts?

1. I am prohibited from wearing kilts
By local authorities. One too many "misunderstandings."

6. So this Highlander, dressed in full regalia, Kilt, Sporron, etc.......
walks into the Chemist (Drugstore) and ......asks;
"'scuse me Maester Chemist, boot, ow much for a new condom?
The Chemist says "new condoms start at .30 P"
"Thenk ya sahr, thenk ya" and out the door he walks. He returns about ten minutes later and pulls from his pocket a rather nasty looking, shriveled up old prophylactic and asks, "'scuse me Maester Chemist, but ow much to repair THIS condom?"

The chemist says "Ahh..well, repairin that condom will be .20 P."

"Thenk ya sahr, thenk ya" and out the door he struts.
Ten minutes later he walks back in, holds out the condom and proudly exclaims,

"The Regiment has decided to have it repaired"

7. Why do pipers always walk back and forth?
It's harder to hit a moving target.

12. One thing I always wondered about kilts.
Should I wear boxers or briefs? :) Or the other thing?

16. In the immortal words of Grounsdkeeper Willie . . .
"Now the kilt was only for day-to-day wear. In battle we donned full-length ball gowns covered in sequins. The idea was to blind your opponent with luxury."

I love the Simpsons :)

17. As the board's proper 100% native Highlander I have to say....
No. Never owned one, very rarely wore one. Sorry.

23. The real purpose behind the kilt
is so that, no matter how piss-drunk the Scotsman gets, the urine merely dribble down his leg, without soiling his clothes.
