    How about just invite them. All present can sort out the details onsite.
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    In fact the van was full of a combination of UCSB track and lacrosse girls.

Today was "The Big Meet"...meaning Cal vs. Stanford, so I'm not sure why the UCSB girls were there, but whatever.

    I'm a UCSB alum, see? But they didn't know that. All they saw was me...bald, bearded, somewhat large, kilted, and muttering at this pile of steel with a handle on it that frankly, is kicking my assumptions.

    The van passed by one way, and the girls catcalled and screamed "HOT!", and I laughed and waved. When it came back a few minutes later I'd just finished my compromise technique meaning how I'm probably going to throw this bluidy thing, because the "spin" just isn't happening... and heaved the 42 pounder, maybe 18 feet. The van came along at about 1/33rd speed, girls hooted and the

    *very*

    cute brunette that was driving I'm old enough to be her father screams out the window..."Call me!"

    so I shout back..."I don't have your phone number."

    to my complete amazement, the van comes to a screeching halt in the middle of the street and about a dozen very fit, very trim, very pretty UCSB track team girls come pouring out. I now have the telephone numbers for most of them...

    Pity.

    1. I'm twice their age, and then some...
    2. I'm married
    3. It's a 7 hour drive to Santa Barbara

    But for a small fee, you young bucks, I'll share....*NOT*

    Behold ye, the power of the kilt. flippin' incredible
    I am quite certain there are plenty of your kilted bretheren who live in that area who are not currently attached who wou;d very much like to speak with you at length about said young lassies!!!

    That is one of the best kilt stories I've ever read! Congratulations.
    Will you be eBaying their phone numbers or distributing them to XMarkers exclusively?

    Did it inspire you to throw that weight with everything you have?

    I should think the seven hour drive should stop you.
