People seeing me in a kilt may ask if I'm Scots - or if I play the bagpipes - to make some sense out of this guy in front of them wearing a kilt. Its funny how that usually sparks a conversation about their ancestry. The melting pot of America has created a society of mutts - myself included. Many of us have, I think, an interest in belonging - of knowing where we come from. And so we connect to our heritage as Scots or Celts or whatever. Then, we are likely to say "I'm Scots" as a form of verbal shorthand. Personally, I never offer a pedigree unless or until asked and when asked I might just say...
"I am the Walrus" Coo Coo Ca Choo...
Oh yeah - one more thing...
ANYONE can wear a kilt!
