"Last Word"-You Can't Skirt The Kilt

Thursday, April 03, 2008

SUSIE GHARIB: And finally, in case you don't have it marked on your calendar, today is "wear a kilt to work" day! The folks who make Glen-Livit single malt Scotch whisky say kilts are the ultimate sign of masculinity. That's because they were designed for men to wear into battle. So Glen-Livet says don't think of kilts as "skirts for men". Instead, think of them as a gallant tradition for facing the battle of the office workweek. Wearing a kilt today will also help people worldwide, because Glen-Livit is donating cash to a disaster relief charity to mark the day. Paul, it's also part of "tartan week," recognizing the contribution of Scottish Americans have made to the United States.

KANGAS: Susie, if I wore those things on the golf course, I'd get kilt by my playing partners.

GHARIB: You mean you're not wearing one underneath that anchor set?
