And I am sure there are some very disappointed office ladies too.
I have done combat rolls in my kilts, but I never had anyone nearby to tell me if they could see anything. I would think not, as the movement is so fast that it seems like it stays near my legs.

I'm glad your kilt stayed in place. You wouldn't want to admit that you wear boxers beneath your kilt (though you did that the day you "mis-tucked" your kilt walking in the door!).
My own ***-over-teakettle story is a little different. I was trucking along with a backpack on, heading into town after being rained and snowed on for a week straight. I was really booking, the trail was flat, and my head was down as I steamed ahead. I didn't see the fallen tree across the trail at head height. I hit it full speed (about four miles an hour) right on the crown of my head, and I literally bounced backwards, and onto my ***, legs in the air. My backpack cushioned the blow, but I lay there, kilt around my waist, for about five full minutes, laughing at myself (after I determined the stars were going away). Good thing no one else was around, because I definitely showed what was under my kilt!
Andrew.

Sorry, guys, I'm a little late on this one. What is the story behind "the ****/*** over the teakettle"?
Anyone care to relate it?

Turn of phrase longshadows, no biggie. Hey Ron, I hope they sponsered YOU for your Launchathon. That's gotta be worth $10.

My Pittsburgh Kilt and Bear Kilt with traditionally wide aprons would probably have flashed the family jewels under those conditions.
The narrow apron of the Utilikilts falls neatly between the legs and keeps private matters private.

The things that you can learn online! From http://www.randomhouse.com/wotd/inde...?date=19960517 :
....first found in a 1946 book about fighter pilots in WWII, in a euphemized form: "He displayed a rump-over-tea-kettle aggressiveness in seeking dog-fights."
It's a variation of a saying that goes back to the late 19th century.
