    Comments from the Long Weekend

    Hi all,

    I don't normally start threads on the comments I get but I had a really nice one this weekend at a Bob Evans in Columbus.

    I was walking in with my family wearing my "knockaround" Black Watch kilt (not the highest quality kilt but a good one for just general wear, and we'd just been out with the dog running around, so it was a casual morning). A gentleman walking in behind us commented "well, I didn't think I'd see another one of those this week!" I turned around, and he said "I just got back from Scotland."

    He then asked a couple questions, such as "are you in a band" and the like.
    I just responded with my normal "No, I just like kilts." And he smiled and said "well, good for you!" And you could tell he meant it, as opposed to some of the folks who react to that comment.

    Just a little note, but it was nice to hear.

    Jamie

    Those little interactions make your day, don't they?

    They can certainly make them more interesting! And it's nice to see folks who are open minded, particularly at a place like Bob Evans.
