Origins

You've probably heard the phrase "to the hilt," meaning to the fullest extent - as if to plunge a blade to its hilt when it can plunge no further - and perhaps even "living to the hilt" by holding nothing back in experiencing your life, a philosophy essentially synonymous with carpe diem.

For me, seizing the day means going further than the average man and taking that giant leap toward true freedom: the kilt.

As far as I'm concerned, a man has not truly lived until he has lived in a kilt, and to show just how satisfied I've been since burning my trousers, I'm making the commitment to a regular blog (which will be quite an accomplishment for me: I can sometimes be lax when it comes to deadlines, but I figure that this ain't no trivial matter - this is passion.)

And so begin the chronicles of how I am Living to the Kilt.
