Holy cow!!!!!!!! I'm rich!!!!!! w00t!
About 2 years ago, my friend introduced me to a divining method that he swore by... I was skeptical until I tried it. He would hover his hand over a blank lottery card (the kind where you choose 6 numbers), and while thinking of money, would fill in the first 6 numbers that came into his head. Swearing that anyone could do it, and 8 times out of 10 you would win AT LEAST a tenner to cover your costs, it was worth a try.
Well, after almost 24 months of trying this crazy system, lady luck as smiled on me, as I just checked today's winning numbers in the newspaper, and I'm ecstatic to announce that I'm one of 5 winners to share the jackpot of „4,201,875,000 (USD equiv. $45,000,000 by today's exchange rate). After tax and after all the winners get their cut, I'm still up abou 9mil.
Therefore, to celebrate my new-found fortune, I've decided that before investing the rest for the future and quitting my crappy-a$$ed job, and traveling around the world, I will buy each of my XMTS clansmen a brand new, genuine, 8-yard tartan KILT from the manufacturer of their choice, in whatever tartan they would like (custom weaves are OK).
So, I invite you all to celebrate with me and PM me with your order ASAP because this offer is truly limited-time ONLY. Your PM MUST be dated with today's date: April 1, 2010 or you're out of luck!!!

Since you're on the other side of the International Date Line it's already April 1st over there. How do you say APRIL FOOLS in Japanese? Nice try, though.

I am divining that my eight-yard kilt will in actuality be 24 feet shy of complete. At first I was very happy for you, but alas noticing your location I also got the joke. Good one though.

Sounds like you're the crazy one.....
My kilt will be in the Balmoral tartan since my Aunt Elizabeth said I could have one.

Well, if you're buying everyone here a new 8-yarder, I don't think you'll have much left to invest or travel on...
That said, I'd love to have a Green Scott (pleated to the stripe) to go with my Red Scott (pleated to the sett). Any limitations on when it gets ordered? (I'd like to lose my spare tire, or at least deflate it a little beforehand).
