    I happen to look very good in a kilt. I have the legs for it
    There once was a scotsman named Drew
    Who put too much wine in his stew
    He felt a bit drunk
    And fell off his bunk
    And landed smack into his shoe

    Kilts? Fun! Here you go:



    That was me at my high-school leavers' ball. I won the best dressed male award, although that was more to do with the fact that every other bloke wore a tux.
    "I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche

    Not so long ago you'd be arrested for looking like that.

    Wow, looks like a lot has happened since I last checked...
    Gentlemen, you have attracted quite a number of ladies! Even Ms. Janine is here!
    Loki! You look like a leprechaun! A really cute leprechaun, mind you. And you're kilt looks like one of the uniform skirts here...
    CARPE DIEM! Seize the day! Make your lives extraordinary!

    Leprechaun?

    They're small, green and Irish. Lok looks like a Jock.

    (Jock is friendly slang for Scottish. At least, it's friendly until it's said by an Englishman, the Scots' mortal enemy.)
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    Not to interfere with the guessing game, and I may be wrong, but considering other thing Loki has written I would say Welsh rather than Scottish?

    Are Scots and English really mortal enemies anymore? The English do seem to have made a lot of enemies in surrounding areas...

    I always thought "jock" was a term for those into sports. It is here anyway.

    And I don't believe leprechauns are green. I think they're rather pasty. And wear green

    OK, enough with the kilt jokes, in this clip you will see a lot of men wearing kilts. You will also see some of the finest film acting in your life when the martinet new commander of a Scottish battalian takes over from its veteran commander and the effect that it has on the troops. Directed by the great British director Ronald Neame, it makes Coppola,Tarantino et al look like the schoolboys they really are. I invite you to check out other clips of the film on the Youtube site.

    Check out the clip from this film... 'Carry on up the Khyber' if you want to see the best of the British in kilts and British stiff upper lip!

    You won't be disappointed!

    Make sure you watch it all...only 6 mins.
