'Garb' and the Kilt

[Sciuropterus]

I go the MN Renn Faire every other year or so, the last several times (just to be funny) I wore a loud hawaiian shirt, bermuda shorts and sandals with black socks; the stereotypical garish tourist. The wittier characters would engage me in conversation about my "odd and curious garb", ask what far-off land I was from, etc., all good fun.

My youngest son (13) actually asked at school if he could wear his kilt. They told him he could not because it was considered a "costume" and in so many words they said it might cause a ruckus. Yeah, probably a ruckus caused by all those little girls in their Brittany Spears "costumes" wanting to get a glimpse of a fine young lad!

He shoulda just wore it. After all, it's easier to get forgiveness than permission
