    ALL the time little kids point at me and say "Mommy! A pirate!" (Or daddy on some occasions) The best time was in the hospital after my wife's surgery. A whole bunch of hospitalised kids got to see a "skirt wearing pirate." Because I seem to personify 'pirate' in the minds of so many little kids, and more than a few adults for some reason, I would be willing to bet a bottle of grog that I could pull off the Jacobite shirt look like few others could.

    The movie had the Dread Pirate Roberts, we here at Xmarks have the Dread pirate Belly! (Okay, now I just had the mental image of animated stomachs with eyepatches and cutlasses in some kind of nightmarish antacid commercial.)

    You and me both Dread. I'll never have dreads in my beard, (on purpose anyway) but it's long enough that even with trousers, a Jacobite shirt on me just looks absolutely in place.

    Dread, Panache said I look like a swashbuckler in my Jacobite shirt. Mind you in a kilt shouldn't that be swishbuckler?
