And the accent doesn't hurt, either!

11. It is! Truly.. just look at this quote from him:
"I'm doing my bit for the women's movement. The women have always been naked in movies and now I'm just desperate to take my clothes off as much as possible."


A true humanitarian. :applause: :rofl:

3. Oddly enough,
I am presently shopping for one. Can't decide on a traditional tartan (like Irish national) or more contemporary one, like Utilikilt.

Not meaning to sidetrack your thread, though...it's a great picture!


If any are interested, see here (and maybe help influence my deliberations on a purchase):

6. Big "no" on the denim and leather ones.
They look like girl skirts.

21. ...and in case the question comes up...
about what is worn under the kilt?

Socks.

...and I don't care what you've heard or what anyone else may tell you.
Camouflage is NOT the hunting tartan of the clan MacSpurious.

---> likes a man in...or out of...kilts. :loveya:

14. here are the lyrics
the last couple of stanzas are where the joke is :)

http://www.thebards.net/music/lyrics/The_Scotsman.shtml

Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar on evening fair
And one could tell by how we walked that he drunk more than his share
He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
See yon sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold, for them to see, beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth

They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone
Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree
Behind a bush, he lift his kilt and gawks at what he sees
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes.
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize

17. I am never responsible for furry animal threads.
The closest thing I have to a furry pet is a really pilly afghan.
