Not a true Scotsman, although there is some lowland Scot in my ancestry (McElwaine from Ayrshire and McCune from God only knows where), but my son is prone to wearing a kilt. A great heavy woolen thing. I'd post a photo, but I don't know where they are at the moment, Unlike me, he's got the legs for it.
I did make the mistake of asking him where he got his skirt...
... and no, I don't like hospital food. The mashed potatoes kept clogging up the straw.
Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
