My wife and I attended a local radio station's 1st Anniversary "listener party" last night. The only way to get in to the party was to win tickets from the station. It was held in a century old barn-turned-pub in Okotoks, a small town about 30 kilometers south of Calgary.

I decided to go kilted, of course. When the movie "Troy" came out last month the morning DJ's were commenting about Brad Pitt's notion that within a year men would be wearing s***ts. I called in and said I wasn't sure about the truth to that, but for them to remember that "real men wear kilts". The female DJ swooned over that for a few minutes. So, I had to wear mine.

Well...she sure loves men in kilts! She spotted me and came over to introduce herself, and asked if I'd been that caller last month. I was the hit of the party! If I was a single guy I could have had the pick of many a young lady last night. I could not believe all the attention I was getting from the ladies. My wife took it all in stride, even going as far as showing me off a few times. I even had a number of men come over to shake my hand, saying they wish they had the "stones" to wear a kilt in public. All in all it was a great time. It was sure a real boost to both our ego's.

I'm waiting till they upload all the pics from the party to their website. They took a number of shots of me and the group I was in. I'll let you know once they do.
