    Oh those questions

    Hell-o all,

    Just returned from a meeting of people throughout the metro area in regards to getting people involved in the community. We had ten people all together five females and five males. Because this was a new committee we had a little bit of an ice breaker session. Five questions were put in a hat for the females to answer, and five for the males to answer. They were basic questions, like how much air is put in your cars tires (to the females), and to the men do you put the toilet seat down. When it came my turn to answer my question I was asked "do you hang up your pants?" The whole place broke out in laughter. Kilts the great ice breaker.

    Graham,

    What are pants? I read about them some where, but I am unsure of what they are, they really sound uncomfortable.

    An invention by the English to bind men to torturous fashions, like the corsette.

    You both are quite fortunate you can be kilted most of the time.
    It is a goal I strive for. My wife isn't
    crazy over the idea. So I will take small steps as I
    try to get to your levels of Kiltdom.
    I'm off this weekend to a Celtic festival and
    I hope to stay kilted all weekend.

    Nelson,

    As one who has not worn a pair of trousers for five years last Saturday, and who does not now even own a pair, I have to say that my heart bleeds for you. The one thing in my life that I shall never regret is the giving up of trouser tyranny!

    I am pleased to say that I celebrated the anniversary on Saturday evening, on my own, with a half-bottle of Champagne. Maybe, next year, I'll be able to get a party organised to help me celebrate the sixth anniversary. Anyone up for it?

    Ham,

    Would this be another virtual tour, or are you going to fly us to your place for the event?

    Ham,

    I may be half a world away but I'll raise my
    glass to you Saturday Evening.
    You certainly are an inspiration.

    Ham!
    Congradulations!!
    To give in to Elve, I wear pants or shorts aprox. two hours a week to go to mass. Other than that I like you am pants free.
    We spent a week in Canada BC, in Vancouver, Courtany and Port Renfrew. We had a wonderful time.
    Anyway what I am responding mainly to, are you saving the other half of the Champagne for next year?

    Ham, if you're organizing a party I'll be there, at least in spirit.
