Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, it's pretty amazing to see that that telephone pole
was nineteen foot long.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Fun of a dude wearing a skirt because he can
throw a freaking telephone.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yes, he can hundred yards. It's amazing. It's what they
do is they move and all that, and it's literally
one hundred and ninety pounds.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
You know, my wife shares the hero and she was
showing the family crest. It's on a it's a frame thing, yeah,
in the hall. But I ask about the tartan because
I wanted them know if we could wear, if my boys,
who love the heritage of it, could wear the tartan.
And she said, you can't. I'm not allowed to because
I'm not. That's serious business.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
There's some families are very strict rules about that. Some
are a little more open. My wife is a Cameron
and so she has her Cameron tartan. I do not
wear the Cameron tartan. Hell no, I wear the Tartan
day South Tartan. We actually had our own tartan approved
in Scotland two years ago and it is made up
of colors of the city of k c West Columbia,
(04:36):
town of Lexington and we had it approved. It's about
a six month process, about a sixty page application and
it's actually approved in Scotland. And all your fabric has
to be woven in Scotland, so we have to have
it done there and shipped over and we have kilts
made and different things made. So excellent.

the scenes and your army.
