Boring

[Jerry]

Which brings us to a subtle difference amongst the members of this forum.

Why are you really wearing that kilt? Are you wearing it to be comfortable? Are you wearing it to declare your heritage? Or are you wearing it to be different and thereby singled out?

Whether you are wanting personal comfort, the opportunity to be proud of who you are, or just to be a rebel really makes no difference in the end. But there are still those three distinctly different categories, nonetheless.

I guess, all three, though getting singled out isn't my favorite reason. I am with Ron, though. It is a little dissapointing, if not boring. I just returned from 4 nights and 3 days in Myrtle Beach. I had exactly 4 comments the whole trip. One was going into a restroom at an interstate rest area. That was, "aren't you cold?" I was wearing a modern Macneil 5 yard kilt. The other three were at The Medieval Times dinner theater. The nicest ones were from the young ladies where we entered the theater. "Oh look, a kilt" Then a short discussion with a middle aged couple about my Scot Irish heritage and Irish kilts. Lastly, an "Are you Scottish"? from the "King" while exiting after the show. Other than those, I walked all over the area wearing either my Macneil tank, the Macneil casual, or my Stillwater heavyweight black shadow tartan and no one even seemed to notice. Maybe Dread or some of the other SC kilties have educated Myrtle Beach already. Maybe, Nags Head next time.
