>the only person who has seen my legs in the last 28+ years is my wife. And she has no complaints. <

None of us are complaining about it either, Dick... ;)

>I'm just jealous that you have a full head of hair. My only hope is that it's growing to the outside rather than to the inside of your head<

Nah... I don't think you have to worry about ME becomming a fluff-head. At least, I don't feel any urges to start crying about blood in the streets, or evil assualt weapons... :neener:

Hmm, who'd have thought it: another kilt wearer on THR. Will wonders never cease?

I have two of these.

Real men have the courage to wear kilts. Just ask those screaming, savage tribal Scotish highlanders (me ancestors) who took on the British overlords with claymores & dirks.

Besides: kilts offer unparalleled opportunities for CCW that pants don't. ;)

YES!!! ANOTHER KILT WEARER!!! DOWN WITH PANTS!!!!

Ahem... have I mentioned that I REALLY need to get to sleep?

I've got two UKs (denim and workman's, both black). Eventually, I'll get more. I've also got a traditional Mac Cleod (found on EvilBay), and will be picking up a trad Black Watch (along with flashes and such). I used to wear them more, until I got started in BACA: hard to take a biker wearing a kilt seriously (besides: you should NOT ride wearing a kilt. TRUST me on this)...

Wearing one now, in fact...

This is the best site to come to if you need a new signature for your Gov't Email. "I'm guessing you're not here about the alcohol and tobacco."

There are more questions from new people about the AR than any one man could answer daily. There are more opinions about the M16/AR15 than I can count or comtemplate.

When I start to think I have too many guns or too much ammo, I can always come here to find at least a dozen others who have stock piles much larger than mine.

The 1911 and M1 are the best Weapons ever made. The 9mm and M16 are under powered.

When you're down there's usually a good story about a self defense by a gun owner or a stupid story about a criminal with a gun.

That I feel sorry for people that are not allowed to have AR's and AK's - those horrible 'black guns' as Communist Cali DOJ call them. But proud to tell anyone and everyone that I pay $78 to have my AR's in CA legally :neener:

Just when you thought you were going to spend a few bucks, someone will link you to a resource to help you out for little to nothing.

Few posts with questions of mine really have to be made... after a little bit of searching I can usually find the ANSWERS.

I am not prepared to be attacked by Zombies and only mildly ready for a SHTF

Some day the words "white trash with class" will come out :uhoh:
 
That tin foil can be used for something other than putting on top of a turkey. (or is that the same thing:evil: )

The M14 was the best/worst weapon adopted by the U.S. military and that dropping it so quickly was the next best/worst thing done.

John Shirley knows more about Kukris than I'll ever know (dangit).

Don Gwen has more patience than Job.

Pax makes a great mom for the rest of us and we should follow almost all of her advice.

And as many have said, that there are some wonderful folks with amazing depth and breadth of knowledge about firearms that are kind enough to patiently share that knowleded with the rest of us.

(I wear a kilt from time to time as well)
 
1. There are many who post here who are incapable of any level of meaningful introspection.

2. Those that the above comment apply to will be those that are sure it does not.

Lather, rinse, repeat.
 
Screeech!

Hold up! btw - we need a "Hold Up" smilie

I'm Learning something here.

Okay I understand we have guys wearing kilts , no problem, as I have some Scotch-blood in me as well. If I am reading correctly, same guys ride bikes _ correct? I do not have a problem with bikes as I used to as well. Same guys with kilts and bikes carry concealed - am I following all this correctly so far?

Help me out here. At one time our State Regs said Ladies could not wear short skirts on the back of a motorcycle when riding as passenger.

Tamara, pax, Kaylee...need a female perspective on this...

I guess this explains where/whom all the garter type thigh holsters are/were sold to and ladies have a hard time finding one.

Umm...don't it get a bit cold in them things? Especially on a bike?

Well...concealed is concealed. ;)
 
Steve, you've obviously not been in Los Angeles lately... you should see the lace-and-chantilly-trimmed kilts at "Victor's Secret"!

(Of course, they're tastefully displayed on full-size, no-fig-leaf models of Michelangelo's "David"...)

Oh - and, whatever you do, don't ask to see their sporrans!

:what: :evil: :neener:

Ah, that makes at least three of us.

Just ignore the jokes, gentlemen. Those who make fun of kilts are still repressed (no, restricted) by the 'pants conspiracy' begun by the European ruling class centuries ago in order to take away men's freedom. :neener:

As the Utilikilt saying goes, "We sell freedom!" (Until you've tried one, you have no idea what that means.)

And no, Steve, I don't wear mine when riding my bicycle. Doesn't really work well for that, if you know what I mean. ;)

I have not been inside a mall in quite sometime. The last time I went into Victoria's Secret to buy a gift - damn mirrors, display racks and shelves kept running into me.

I do know how 'breezy' jeans can get. I was running my dirt bike, I was in the lead, doing jumps ( with that fancy kick of the front wheel for style points) and all sorts of stuff.

Did I mention this was adjacent to a BIG River? Seems a BIG tree root was more exposed, just about the time one is supposed to head up a hill, and run the levee.

Oh I went airborne allright...not onto the levee, over the levee and I am punching that kill switch like crazy. Forget the J frame IWB with strap over the hammer...it'll dry. Sucking in water is not good for dirt bikes.

"Damn Steve, that was purty all we could see was <expletive> and elbows".

I ended up down river, bikes don't float ( in case you wondered) I come staggering back and my left jeans leg is cut from pocket to below the knee - How I did not get cut is beyond me...

Breezy? Oh Yeah...especially wet. Since I was already wet and "hey man, your bike...here is some rope, we'll back up the truck".

Coustea I am not. Never been diving for a dirt bike before :p . No I did not have extra jeans - after that day I did.

You clean your J frame best can, hope the holster recovers, and just use electrical tape to keep from "exposing" yourself when you go to Waffle House to eat. Just tape the orange shop rags and go on...

"Darling, you need some hugging, compassion and since you are wet, ain't getting it from me". Sugar, how about a free slice of pie?. You best describe "rode hard and put up wet" and you smell like a wet dog that has been in the River".

Mable was a hoot.

I probably could have started a new fashion trend, not a kilt, not jeans anymore - breezy, yeah buddy!

Use Enough Shop Rags and Electical Tape.

:p
 
And no, Steve, I don't wear mine when riding my bicycle. Doesn't really work well for that, if you know what I mean.
Just remember, gentlemen, concealed is concealed.

Please! :D

When one is temporarily repairing one's pants it is the all useful duct tape that works best.:uhoh:

Learned that on multiple occasions.:eek:

All y'all can keep those kilts too, way too cold here for that.;)
 
I've learned that the military/.gov does not have the monopoly on acronyms.

I've learned that any thread that goes more then 5 pages generally has nothing to do with what was originally posted and frequently has devolved to .45 vs 9mm issue. (or in the case of this thread, by page 3 it's "All-About Kilts"...... $125 for a Kilt :what: , when I can get dockers/jeans for $20 ?!?!?! You've got to be kidding me !!!!!! )

I've learned that still have a lot to learn.

I've learned that "gunnies" are the politeist/friendlist people.

I've learned that using the "Search" feature answers many of my questions, prevents me from showing how ignorant I truly am, and makes for fun reads when the days posts are kinda slow.

I've learned that I'm not as paranoid as I thought/have been accused and much, much, much more then I ever wanted/cared/needed to know about Zombies, Bears (the non-football playing types), Aliens, Tin-foil, the UN, et al.

I've learned that I'm a master of the run-on sentence, and I use way to many paranthesis' (paranthesisi ??) in my postings. :D
 
Sure go ahead.

I get to add this to the "Blame Steve" stuff - right? :p

<hold on...reads PM from pax >

It is amazing little boys ever live long enough to become men-pax

Who says I have?

I didn't grow up-I just got bigger-Art

pax just says no matter what - just remember "concealed is concealed".

Must be a female thing...

Being male I never recall saying that to a lady doing the "hot brass down cleavage dance". :D

Steve!! :uhoh:

Excuse me, seems pax wants me to sit on a stool over in the corner and make sure the corner does not come undone...

;)
 
Blame? No blame, just remembering. :)

On a positive note; labgrade's grandson joined THR recently.

The man was a real revolutionary, a freedom fighter, more than we even know. Hopefully, his grandson will continue the legacy...

sixstring, where are you?
