Hows the weather up by you this evening Westy? Today was an absolutely perfect fall day.....temps near 70, blue sky, sun shining, Mt. Rainier proudly displaying herself today, getting ready for the winter snows, and leaves beginning to turn color...

When its a dismal day, I keep the blinds in the computer room shut, and all the way down...but today, the blinds are pulled all the way up, so I can keep looking out the window, at such a beautiful day, as today was, and still is...Seems like a day or two ago, they were forecasting rain for all this week...

But today, it seems that the new forecast is for the rest of the week to be near 70 degrees, sunny, and just wonderful...I know, we need rain, as my lawn and most of my neighbors lawns are really pretty brown.....

But at least for now, this week, sunny warmish days, with blue skies, are just heavenly, and before we do know the rain will return, so I am just enjoying the wonderful weather while it lasts...

Well, I finally got around to looking at the 'Utilikilts' website, and got to see what the gals were all fussing about earlier today....gents in kilts....now I am a Scot, through my dads family, belonging to the Clan Fraser....I want to peek up those kilts of my fellow Scots, and see what splendors they are hiding up there...

I notice that when one orders a kilt, they can order 'modesty straps'(I want to see how that works), and then compare a kilt with modesty straps as opposed to one without the modesty straps....I notice the cost of the tuxedo kilt is really high, $550, compared to the cost of the other kilts....also they have a 'beer gut' size...

When I was perusing the 'original utilikilt', the caption on the pic was, 'The kilt that made Seattle famous'....ah, I said to my self, is the store in Seattle...indeed it is....tho, I have been many times in Seattle, and have yet to see any gent wearing a kilt...

I have seen many odd fashion sights in Seattle, a native American woman wearing a dress, made out of bark, young people sporting every variation of spiked hair, and color combos of hair, multiple earrings and nose rings, and bellybutton rings, and titty rings, pants hanging half way down the butt of young people, pants so long they drag on the ground, clothing slashed and cut and frayed, but I have never, ever seen any gent in Seattle wearing a kilt...

Which leads me to conclude, that I must direct BigDom and Andy to the kilt store in Seattle, and somehow lure them both into sporting kilts...(yea, right, they will probably lock me up in the nut house over that one)....but it would be interesting to visit this store, and see what they have to offer....

I wonder if the salemen are wearing kilts...seems to me they should be, to encourage the other shoppers....now perhaps I can get an up close and personal view of what exactly is under those kilts....

A new fashion experience awaits us in Seattle...this should be some fun...

[lodwick]

Harrump!

Good morning everyone.

[grannie9]

Good morning Loddy.. As usual, you're lookin good.. ;)

[lodwick]

Excellent links - thanks.

I have never understood why for forty years we've jerked around with Castro - even Teddy Roosevelt observed that Cuba should be blown off the face of the earth a century ago.

And the wacky world of haute couture - what can one say?

[Kathleen]

Good morning! But the sage, paragon of wisdom Jimmy Carter says that Castro is such a sweetheart...NOT.

[grannie9]

Good morning Kathy.. Here's a pic I just took..

The good flowers are getting scarce.. Soon I'll have to get to cutting them all down and pulling them out..

[Kathleen]

That is absolutely gorgeous Gran, dew drops and all. Thank you.

Next thing you know, we'll have frost on our pumpkins. ;-)

[grannie9]

I don't know about you.. but my Pumpkin already has frost on it..

Hoarfrost...;)

[Mo1]

West Nile coming from Castro??

I never thought of that

[grannie9]

Sounds good to me.. A few migrating birds here and there. It would be a good test, don't you think?

Barstid.. You can bet your bippy he's doing something down there..

[Mo1]

Oh I never bought the story that it just appear from no where ..

I still remember the stories from NY when is first showed up ..

I screened in the porch this year because of the West Nile

I just never thought of Cuba

[Kathleen]

Hmmmm, does she or doesn't she? Only her hairdresser knows for sure...;-)
