We had a kilt-clad bagpipe player at a funeral last year, and he was sitting cross-legged in the church nursery waiting for his cue, and...um...flashed...a couple of people...probably wasn't even aware of that fact, used to wearing jeans...but then again, I can't imagine WHY...well, oh well, never mind.

Miss Bratti...Lord forbid that men should wear a dress/skirt!!! However, I've seen a few ladies, uhh, scratch that, women who could have used a label with instructions inside their blue jean skirts...

Hmm, that is a rather disgusting thought.

I wonder what Zaccueus was wearing when he climbed the sycamore tree?

I had to bite my tongue till it nearly bled to stop myself from ruining the funeral and my somber, appropriate image.

Word To The Wise: Bagpipes are great if they're about a block or more away. Any closer than that...
Hilarious story!!

He must of been wearing something because he was a tax collector, and the Jews hated the boot lickers of Rome, so I would "guess" that to avoid a problem with those who would look for opportunity to have issue with Zaccueus he may have been covered below.
