...As I sink deeper into the clutches of addiction....

[Riverkilt]

Wonder if there's a connection between tattoo addiction and kilt addiction?



I've lost count of my kilts...nearly 50 now I think...and two of them are WHITE!...gotta have a "natural" white and a "medical" white....

And.....I have THREE on order...seems routine...the RAF hand sewn and Isle of Skye hand sewn from Kathy Lare and the Warrior casual from USA Kilts...

Oh yeah, and a jacket from Kathy too....

It may be an addiction, but I'm loving the consequences....FUN FUN FUN and FREEEEEDOM!

Yep, I think there may VERY well be a connection to those addicted to tattoos and kilts! Maybe I just have an addictive personality. I've dealt with the kind of addiction that doesn't yield good consequences too. But, I'm too hard-headed to let something rule me, so I kicked those. But the tattoos and kilts?? Nope, I love the consequences of those as well. I know I've mentioned it before. But, that is one SWEET tortoise tattoo on your back there. I'm probably venturing off topic here, but I found this picture over on my organic stretched earlobe jewelry makers site. I figured this would give a bit better perspective of my tattoo addiction, as it gives a clear shot of part of my neck and under my chin (something that my kilt photos have not provided.)

I wish I could get away with having more tats like that but due to work I cant. I had to stop my lobes at 5/8th and get enough crap from these rednecks around here about my 8 gauge labret.

HAHAHAHA!!

Ah, kilting is a wonderful addiction! I can hardly wait to get out of this financial crunch; there are three USAK casuals I plan on ordering as soon as finances allow.

[Riverkilt]

You're a braver man than I to do your neck...

My sea turtle took eight sittings and twenty hours...but no way do I think I could take the most delicious pain of neckwork...

White kilts are hard to find these days, but keep your eye out, they're great for setting off tattoos...as are the black ones.



More kilts brother Brad, more kilts...you need more kilts...kilts, kilts, kilts...gotta have more kilts. Tats and kilts, tats and kilts, tats and kilts...more tats, more kilts...

Tattooo's don't do it for me I'am afaid, but kilts--bring them on

[MacTavishOfJapan]

Good luck with the addiction Bradley although I think you're fighting a losing battle.

[McClef]

I don't think there is any connection myself.

There are many tattoed guys who don't wear kilts and many kilted guys who don't wear tattoes.

Perhaps I am jaded, it is such an ordinary thing to get a new Kilt, sort of like getting the morning coffee. Yet this thread reminds me of the reasons why I am Kilted. Oh the joy!
