So if Eddie wears his kilt, does he have to use an English style long bow? And would it be legal to use the bag pipes to stop the bull in his tracks? I personally love the pipes. My Dad, on the other hand, said they sounded like a bag full of cats. I hope his kilt is plaid and not a leopard print. God, I was just envisioning him in leopard print thong! But kilt would be just fine, and somewhat more manly, especially if he wears the bearskin pouch, and his sgian dubh in his stocking garter. Now that would be worth filming, seeing a grown man in a plaid skirt running for his life as an enraged buffalo with an arrow through his tail, is closing in on him. I somehow have this vision of an Ostrich on speed, or a coot running across the water, before take off.
But I do have to give im is due. The Lad would most likely be goin for it, if it was offered, and quite possibly run up to it, without waiting, like a good lad, and not notice the rest of the herd, like Mechslasher said. Personally me thinks ye would have to be a bit daft, to go nicking about the countryside, in a kilt, let alone thwack a full grown Buffalo, with a home crafted bow and arrow. Personally,if it were me, and if and when I was somewhat close, I would just as well say, Afternoon Argus, and cheerio old Chap,Ta Ta, and all that rot, don't ya know. By Gad, that is big cow! Well Governor, that is just me own opinion, as I know he is quite capable of crafting a bow and arrow to do the job quite properly, and could jolly well it is mark. I don't know if it would be the correct mark, but by Jove, there is quite a lot of mark to hit on a Buffalo, don't you know, and I would bet me bally hat, that he would go through with it. Well sorry about the British bit, but it seems a bit o me British ancestry has crept through. Perhaps, since he would be wearing a Kilt, I coulda had used a moorrr Scot-ish Accent, sted o the British one. But nae, I used the British one, being as how that is the source of me ancestry, from a beautiful, and quaint little town called " Wooten Under Edge ". Nice rolling hills, and Flint every where, really, really nice flint. Dark blue, light blue, and black! The beaches a Bog Nor Regis are covered with round nodes of it. Anywho, lets take up a collection to send Eddie and Tiller to Africa, to harass a Buffalo, and try to out run it. I bet Eddie could climb a thorn tree with no problems. He would probably take his kilt off and throw it in the Buff's face, and get away that way. Oooh, there's that vision bit again!
We might have to grade it as PG13 or so, to keep " the wee, ones from being traumatized, by the sight of a Semi naked, semi Scottish Tarzan, running around the bushes, desperately looking for a tree taller than four feet high! "
