Chris. 
Turnin' 65 in a few days (9-1-06) and I can say that if I had known at age 16 what I know now about the power of the kilt... well (sigh)
My wife is long suffering, since I am at many Highland Games and have posed for unnumbered photos of themselves and a "real scot"
This weekend is the Highland Fling weekend at the Michigan RevFest and I usually go to help out a local pipe band and fill out its piping ranks. It is always a great place to "people watch" Some of these young ladies almost dress for the occasion.
The strangest comment was while at last year's renfest. I was about to purchase a pint at one of the little beer concessions when a group of customers (who well into their cups - so to speak) hailed me and one said "hey nice costume" I smiled. Since I was holding my set of pipes, the next question was, "can you play them?" I answered, "Aye, if ya kin buy this pint I'm about to enjoy." Free beer got them a tune.
