    So, you wear a pith helmet? In broad daylight? Right out there in front of God and everyone?

    I'm inspired.

    The talk of people being mistaken for employees reminds me of the Improv Everywhere prank where 80 people went into Best Buy in blue shirts and khakis.


    Dang youtube thingy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utkkXCF8ZVc



    I have never been mistaken for an employee while in a kilt but I have been mistaken for an entertainer. I showed up at a Christmas party for my hunting club and some of the members that didn't know me thought I was a performer and asked who hired me. After I told them I wasn't a hired performer and I was a member they asked if I would play anyway then seemed baffled that I didn't play bagpipes.

    It's best to be prepared. Because when you gotta pith, you want to be ready
