Hi am Tartan Shortbread Jock

Well this has to be one of the best newcomer threads in a while. I'd have had no clue there were school in the States where kilts were the uniform. How cool.

As for you Jack if you're under 21 do yourself a favor and lay off the shortbread. The human liver doesn't finish growing until age 21 and assaulting your baby liver with shortbread can lead to a lifetime dose of alcoholism. No fun. That's why the drinking age is 21 now in the States.

Okay, unsolicited advice, but you seem too cool a guy to go down that sad road.

Welcome from the Canyonlands of Arizona.

Hello Riverkilt, how are you.
Thanks for the welcome.
My comments were ment to be light hearted ( shortbread is sweats or candy)
Scottish Hummor can be in very bad taste.
Thanks for the advise.
Kind wishes to you and your family.
Tartan Shortbread.
