Al,
I think with the MSM fiasco in New York, a lot of us have given up the bullsh**t and started to speak our minds more. I will always try to state my point without offending anyone, but will not hold back my feelings and opinions to safe face with others. I respect everyone's right to the opinion and ability to share it, but I don't have to agree with it. Political correctness has ruined our ability to speak freely, and is probably the reason some of us are/were apprehensive about wearing our kilts in public.
I participated at the MSM event in New York,(I was the only Canadian there) aside from the press I had a good time. I talked with other kilt builders got some ideas, all in all it was a positive experience. I went down there to promote my product(Rkilts) I offered one for the raffle..the fellow who won it was the skater...hmmm...so...I'm not sure that kilt will be built as he has yet to claim his prize.
But this is not the forum for that(as everyone nods their head in agreement)
I like wearing kilts, I enjoy building them and of course want to sell them. The more folk that wear them the better. I think the best way we can promote ourselves is doing things like kilt nights pubcrawls, forums like this. The ability to voice an opinion, is a wonderful gift. By the same token if it's abused, who wants to listen, as some of us have expressed. I'm here for a good time, hopefully meet some of you in pewrson on my travels.
Happy kilting
Cheers
Robert
