Off kilter

Hey, you can't fault a guy for trying to be authentic. I mean, Scotsmen aren't supposed to wear anything underneath their kilts, right? But I guess they frown on that in North Dakota:

A man was arrested on sex charges after an early morning escapade while wearing a kilt.

Police say Nathan Blair, 24, of Moorhead, Minn., was wearing a black kilt when he exposed himself to motorists near a busy street and had sex with a woman in the backyard of a house.

"In 17 years in this job I've seen a lot of different things. This is a new one," Fargo Police Lt. Pat Claus said Friday.

Claus said Blair and a 20-year-old woman were arrested about 3:30 a.m. Friday after police found them having sex behind a home. The couple first ignored orders to "cease and desist," and then refused to cover up, Claus said.

Both of them had been drinking, Claus said.

You don't say. And here I thought a guy who flashes traffic in his kilt and screws some girl in somebody's backyard was probably as sober as a Deacon.
