What makes you so certain it's a chick?
Amanda's actually moved beyond the restrictions of gender.

Old news (Gretchen, you really should get off that rocking chair!).
The chick with the lips is Amanda Lepore, people, entirely self created without the hand of god.

Underground vaults of Edinburgh
by Virgogirl inthe travel channel aired a show, "most haunted" featuring the city walks and horribly, macabre underground vaults of edinburgh.
supposedly the poor lived beneath the streets in caves and caverns where robbery and murder took place.
the ghosts said to roam the underground rooms are angry and agressive with visitors, sometimes touching, pushing, or calling their names.

Funny that the M8's the best thing about Glasgow too - stops you from having to drive through the city centre.

My friend used to manage Mary Kings Close which I guess was on Most Haunted and yes it's geared towards tourists. I was in it before it became open to the public and yes it was creepy, like a lot of deep, dark abandoned places but not spooky. The tours are geared to give people frights and can be entertaining.
If you choose to follow Matt's suggestion and shop for a kilt in Glasgow, you're also far more likely to be stabbed or shot by the firiendly Weegies.

Wouldn't wearing any 'garb' from any nation in particular be considered, 'national pride'? if not, why?
Presumably it depends on intent. The kilt, jacket, sporran etc is acceptable formal wear here for black tie events as a regional variation, therefore not always worn as a symbol of nationalism. Nor is the kilt exclusive to Scotland, there are Breton and Greek versions too but they're a bit on the short side.
You might find some Witnesses that disapprove of kilts in the same way you get some that disapprove of chess as a war game.

Lurkers:How To Leave The Organization Quietly And Discreetly
by metatron inan ever growing number of witnesses would like to leave the organization - but how?
you may have an extended family "in the truth".. all your "friends" ( and that word "friends" deserves to be put in quotes ) may be "in the truth".
you may not be in any position to make.

My take would be:Start making friends elsewhere.
Just stop attending meetings but offer no explanation beyond doubts.
Don't accept more than one shepherding visit.
Don't confide or even hang out with old Witness friends.
Make sure you're not seen smoking, attending another church or making out with someone for at least the next year.
Yes this will be difficult for JW family members but the ones that can't handle it will cut you off if you do the long term slow fade anyway, or if you move away and stop attending meetings.
Witnesses train their members to waive the right to privacy (eg. elders prying into the bedroom and now HLC reading your medical records). Reclaim it. Explanations and personal decisions are yours, not a corporations.

I feel I should point out that the kilt as worn today, and the rig that goes with it, is essentially a nineteenth century confection so the idea that it's what your ancestors wore is a bit of a misnomer. It's thanks to Sir Walter Scott and the Victorian romance with the Highlands that the prissy wee kilt became fashionable. It owes more to the aristocracy, ninteenth century tourism and English tailors than the Highlands.
If your ancestors were Highlanders they may have worn belted plaid (sorry Slugga, it's not an American term), which was a long piece of material wrapped round the waist and thrown over the shoulder, held together by a belt. Pretty primitive but definitely more authentic. While Braveheart may have many inaccuracies, Mel Gibson's clothing is correct.

David2002 Please Reply on Point!
by AK - Jeff inon another thread david2002 said; regarding, 1975: i have asked brother who were in the truth prior to 1975 about whether or not they believed the end was coming.
the vast majority tell me "no.
" i even know one sister who told me that her mother thought it was coming, but the daughter advised her not to fall into that conclusion.

We had a fire and brimstone C.O. prior to '75 who had everyone ready to flea to the Pentland Hills that surround Edinburgh. My parents weren't the sort to cash in all their chips (unlike some) but we did stockpile food (lentils for some reason) and my mother bought a sheepskin coat in case the big A came in winter.
'75 came and went, the lentils became soup, the coat went out of fashion and the C.O. died without seeing the paradise earth.
