Really, the question should be why should any good looking man wear pants? Or shirts for that matter...
The Scots (of which heritage I am very proud) had the right idea.
Posted by: Somewhere North | July 29, 2005 at 11:01 AM
I suggest just going with the sporran. Forget the kilt.
Posted by: Brainy Jello | July 29, 2005 at 11:03 AM
YUM!!!
Just think gals, this movement will save money and closet space. Our signifcant others can now wear our skirts!
[hhmmm, I said "movement" and "skirts" in the same sentence]
I heart a man in a dress.
Posted by: casey | July 29, 2005 at 11:07 AM
I dunno, Brainy, scrolling down, I found a few men that I do not even want to imagine in only sporrans.
Posted by: AllieKat | July 29, 2005 at 11:07 AM
I've always been a fan of the kilt-is-a-joke-that-the-Scots-never-got theory. As with bagpipes.
I also first read 'Tyranny' above as 'Tranny'. Oops.
Posted by: M.C. | July 29, 2005 at 11:10 AM
I wonder if tall, blonde Scandinavian god-like men look good in kilts...
*dials phone*
Um, honey? Can you come home early? The kids are at the neighbors, and I converted my old plaid skirt into a kilt just for you...
Uh, hello? Honey?
Posted by: Aunt Nancy | July 29, 2005 at 11:12 AM
anybody get a good gander at that "full mask sporran"? WTFBBQ?! Looks like a furry uterus to me.
Posted by: casey | July 29, 2005 at 11:13 AM
Desiring freedom,
I take off my pants, don a kilt-
A breeze 'round my privates.

Policeman: So, Ted Habte-Mullet, also known as Naked Zorro - what were you doing skinny dipping in China?
Ted: I suffer from a condition known as trouser tyranny which resulted from when I sat on a toilet seat and was burned by cleaning chemical residue and had to wear special underpants for many years.
Policeman: You're a hover peer?!!
Ted: NO! No! I pee into vases and routinely splash the seat just like any other male.
Policeman: How did things work out with that girl you met on the airplane?
Ted: How did you know about that?
Policeman: I googled you. I'm afraid I'm going to have to arrest you anyway. We have a standard haircut here in China and mullets don't count.
Ted: IT'S NOT A MULLET
Policeman: And resisting arrest...

casey - went back and looked at the "full mask sporran", and I must disagree. I think it looks like something else, but in keeping with this blog's good taste (?) I won't go into detail.
Posted by: Aunt Nancy | July 29, 2005 at 11:18 AM
Aunt Nancy: I don't get it.
This blog has good tatse?
Posted by: casey | July 29, 2005 at 11:19 AM
Somewhere: Bravo!
Posted by: Reddsuss | July 29, 2005 at 11:22 AM
the full mask sporran is far too lifelike and evil-looking to be placed in such a sensitive area, lest some "hunter" try to "kill" it.
Posted by: AllieKat | July 29, 2005 at 11:22 AM
*clears throat*
I sing unto thee my new ballad
Of a man and a point that's most valid:
For when he puts on his kilt
And he stands at a tilt
All that townsfolk can see his fruit salad!
Posted by: M.C. | July 29, 2005 at 11:28 AM
for the Bravehearts:
My lassie who's truly adorin'
In the dark moved close to my sporran
When I asked how it felt
Being close to a pelt
She replied "It's not you I'm explorin'?
Posted by: insomniac | July 29, 2005 at 11:31 AM
Does anyone else think that "bifurcated" sounds like an unpleasant gastrointestinal eruption?
Posted by: seatazzz | July 29, 2005 at 11:34 AM
Aunt Nancy: Perhaps you mean a merkin?
Posted by: KOW | July 29, 2005 at 11:34 AM
Here's another Fun Fact: That Full Mask Sporran is actually a FOX'S HEAD (for you non-foxhunting afficionados, a fox's face is referred to as a "mask") EWWWWWWW.....just what I need, a decapitated fox in front of my privates (if I were a man, which I'm not)
Posted by: seatazzz | July 29, 2005 at 11:49 AM
Um, three articles in a row featuring at least partially nude men. I am starting to wistfully recall the days when ramparts commonly roamed the blogscape.

Woooo! Foxy Leddy da na na, da na na
Posted by: casey | July 29, 2005 at 12:01 PM
forgive me, I'm utterly exhausted and not making much sense anymore. I'll stop now.
Posted by: casey | July 29, 2005 at 12:02 PM
Has the sporran a purpose, like an ancient fannypack? Or is it just meant to add that certain je n'est ce quoi, in a dour, Celtic sort of way?
Or do Scotsmen just enjoy having something furry hanging from their waists, that they can fondle in idle moments?
Posted by: Maud | July 29, 2005 at 12:13 PM
Like M.C., I first read the link as 'Trouser Tranny.'
And the more I say it, the funnier it sounds.
Trouser Tranny, Trouser Tranny, Trouser Tranny...
I think perhaps I need a nap.

Sauntering ‘round without shame or guilt
A brawny great lad, with a rich Scottish lilt
But our poor Judi
Is sad and moody
For there really is nothing under that kilt
Posted by: slowlayne | July 29, 2005 at 12:44 PM
I have a great idea...the Trouser Tranny...for shifting "gears" when things get out of "hand" on a "date"....if that makes "sense".....of course, a Taser would work as well...gives new meaning to the words "grinding gears" (also a too-vivid mental picture)
Posted by: seatazzz | July 29, 2005 at 12:53 PM
Hmmm. Leather sporran. Full mask sporran. Horsehair sporran.
Is it just me, or do those Scots have a big S&M fetish? Could help explain their penchant for wearing skirts.
[Um, I mean, is it just me that gets this impression. Not, is it just me that has the big S&M fetish. NTTAWWT.]
Posted by: qetzal | July 29, 2005 at 01:10 PM
KOW and casey - since you press the issue...
when I went back and looked at the "full mask sporran" I thought, "Good grief, that's what my dog's butt would look like in a thong!"
That is all.
Posted by: Aunt Nancy | July 29, 2005 at 01:35 PM
I love men in skirts/kilts! Love love love love love. Not dresses, just sarongs and the like.
I was told that the purpose of the sporran is two-fold: first to protect the Important Parts during battle and second to draw fleas away from said Important Parts.
Posted by: Sayyadina | July 29, 2005 at 02:34 PM
OMG, Aunt Nancy - since you mentioned having a Doberman in an earlier thread, I now have burned into my brain the image of a Dobie wearing a thong trotting proudly away from me...I'm pretty sure that image will always be with me.
So the next time I burst out laughing at a funeral, or similar inappropriate occasion, it will be All Your Fault.
Posted by: Maud | July 29, 2005 at 02:49 PM
FUNNY as usual all! My sis-in-law and I were JUST THIS DAY discussing the sitting on the fence "bifurcation" of one family member - who is always trying to keep wall sides of the family happy. Thinking that "bifurcation" has so many different ugly undertones !!!

Sure am, ASK. Sharon is going to be there and a couple of bloglits/blurkers from the MB. One of them works at the same firm where i used to work, but I didn't know that until she posted on my blog a couple of months ago.

Here is a conversation starter.
A friend of mine has some talents. He can Sing, he can act. My talents are in acting as well. But hs face gives off a kind look. I look evil. And the thing is, I have the talents to back it up. He can show off his kindly slacking pretty easily and not get arrested or chased down by the police for his latest nefarious scheme. Learning how to make your hands act like dinosarus in a believable manner will not get interpol checking you out.
I go to the airport to pick up a friend,
"I'm sorry sir, where doing a random check."
This was the conversation with my friends today. It was the one that stuck in my mind anyway. People in Yakima tend to have 13 subjects in a conversation at once. Anyway, we discussed that I was not pulling out my evil talents enough. they complained that I am unable to truly be the villain with the island in the form of my head, because I fear the cops.
So I guess my question is, What would Zombie Nixon do?

Sharon and Sly, I can't wait to hear about your Dave/Rid adventure, and wish that I could be there with you. Hope you can find a rubber-banded mojito apres strumpet. They're really very good.
Posted by: KDF | July 27, 2006 at 11:31 AM
Have a great Birthday, Sly!
That wish is redundant, as you are spending part of your birthday with Dave, Ridley and Sharon, but it still had to be said.

Yes. The weather is really starting to have serious consequences here in CA. There have been deaths here in San Diego as well.
Lots of very old people live alone in small houses in areas that usually don't need a/c, so they're unprepared.
