    Inducting a New Kiltie

    I just finished helping my best friend order his first kilt. He asked me about how to get started, and I gave him advice on tartans, and inexpensive sources for a first kilt -- he quickly settled on a Stillwater standard in Black Watch, which, of course, won't introduce him to the joy of the Jones, but will get him clad in a kilt quickly.

    I think it'll be interesting to watch his first steps in the kilted world -- and of course, I told him about X-Marks, so we'll see if he joins our rabble.

    Very cool news I hope he introduces himself soon, so we can congratulate him on the new kilt.

    And after receiving such a wealth of advice to one so new to the kilt (meaning it's still being shipped here), how could I say no?

    Many thanks for your helpful pointers, MacDougall! Very nice to meet you all!

    Call Jerry and have him send the kilts to me. I'll hold it for 2 weeks and then send it to McMurdo he can hold it for 2 weeks and . . . . .
