Why are you not wearing your kilt?

[Howard Clark]

I find it helps in fostering a good relationship with merchants and other business contacts The kilt automatically sets you apart around here, which makes you easier to remember, and of one is polite and cheerful, nearly everyone responds in kind. This in turn makes an on-going relationship of any kind more pleasant, and more likely to succeed.

Saturday a young woman newly hired at the local hardware store inquired about the kilt, and said her husband wanted one. I directed them here, so that he could learn more and benefit from the resources available at XMTS.

Trousers are a necessary evil sometimes. I have to plow snow again today, and sitting on the no cab tractor with wind and snow kilted doesn't work too well.

I've told this story here before, but I love it so much that I just can't resist telling it again!



A collegue of mine was dating an actress that lives here in town (name withheld -- suffice it to say that she is an internationally known actress and spokesperson who chooses to live here rather than in Hollywood). I met them several times at local pubs, and they came to my house for our departmental Christmas party. Every time I saw them together I was kilted.

One day I ran to the post office between classes, and met her at the door as I was on my way out. In a loud voice she says "Bill, I didn't recognize you with pants on."

I was glowing for the rest of the day!

Before I started wearing a kilt I used red braces to hold my trousers up in preference to a belt. I think Americans call them suspenders. Still, I became known in the Ceroc dancing world as the man with the red braces. To the point that several times ladies that I danced with frequently didn't recognise me on the street as the braces were under my coat.

I am not at all sure that I am very happy about that especially since now I am known as the man in the kilt. Since I wear the kilt full time, no-one has not recognised me, if you see what I mean.

But that does beg the question, if I every wore trousers again, would anyone recognise me?

In my very little burb (more horses then people) people call me the kilt guy and always ask where it is if I'm not wearing one. I just tell them that I have to do laundry, too, sometimes. It's funny, I never thought people would question why I have p@nts on.

What if you wore the red braces with the Kilt? Would people recognize you? Would 2+2 go together?
