Gutter Kiltaholic
Boy, if this be addiction I'm a gutter kiltaholic for sure!
Eleven UKs, 25 kilts total, one under construction, and a "wish list" that just seems to grow and grow in inverse proportion to my wallet.
Back in "my day" WSU was a little place we seldom heard of....
It took me three years for me to drink myself out of Oregon State University, but I managed finally in 1965...

WSU may not have had the "U" in it back then Ron! (back in the old Washington State College days.)
Ever since I was admitted to WSU I've felt like introducing myself as "Tom Tuttle from Tacoma, Washington!" and marching off into the jungle bellowing the fight song. (sorry if you guys haven't seen "Volunteers")

All I know George is back in 1962-5 the OSU Beavers were glad to play WSC/U
We won 7 of 8 basketball games and all three football games...
Those were the days of Mel Counts and Terry Baker at OSU, Liberty Bowl, Rose Bowl.
Course there were about 30 years after that when the world beat up on the Beavers in football....
Don't recall any kilts back then other than a drinking buddy of my dad's who played the bagpipes.

Heh, George, only thing better is to be working for Utilikilts. ;-P I've added two UK's since starting work there. First addition was a heather gray Mocker, like yours. Just that I got mine first. And didn't fork money out for it. The second UK is a basil Survival, which I picked up on Tuesday. Was getting a little frustrated that there wasn't one in my size, when I was doing QC on the latest batch of Survivals on the same day. On a whim, and on my break, I decided to go downstairs and look at what we had in the 42S section. Noticed something in basil green. My jaw dropped. Sure enough, there was the kilt that I had been looking for. In some respects, it is nice to work for kilt credit.
