Oh, rat$#!+...I finally order a kilt from a company in Scotland and the US dollar takes a swan dive in the currency market.

I'm listening to the BBC World News broadcast on NPR and they're going on about how it's cheaper for the Brits and the Euros to fly over here - to NEW YORK, fer cryin' out loud - and do their Christmas shopping. Apparently the whole damn country is now Walmart!

And, of course, the kilt order is "subject to currency fluctuation"...great!

Timing is everything.

Best
