Tartan Names Questions and Answers
Resolved Question: New tattoo idea, help?
Well, my mother has agreed to let me get a tattoo. I'm sixteen. My tattoo will be for my grandfather. We shared music, and love. I considered him as my best friend. (still do). He passed away about a year and a half ago. My idea: An acoustic guitar, with a rose wrapped around it. He had two small swallows, one on each hand. So, There will be a swallow "feeding" on a music note. There will be 3 all together (music notes). The banner with his name and dates will be wrapped around the bottom of the acoustic guitar. Also, I may incorporate the scottish flag or the burns tartan as the design of the acoustic guitar. It's very hard to explain, but could use some more ideas ! moreResolved Question: Our school social has been theemed "masked". Please help me out????

Right, this is the prologue of my story. It's my first draft and I'm currently on chapter 15 but I'm suddenly interested to know what you think of my writing. So, here goes... When people speak of the best cities to visit in the world, they may mention the combination of art and culture and the sensual romantic atmosphere that make Paris such an elegant place. Perhaps they’d describe the exhilaration experienced whilst travelling down a New York boulevard. They’d never talk about Swansea, an odd, vast city, located in South Wales. Maybe I fell in love with Swansea whilst standing on the shore with my trousers rolled up to my knees and my toes soaked by fresh, cool sea water that rhythmically moved to and from the fine, gold sand and the smooth pebbles. My parents were sat on a tartan rug, as far away from the sea as possible and my brother was playing football with some boys he had met on the beach. It was the summer before the beginning of my GSCE course and I had taken the opportunity to reminisce about my past. I grew up in a small but busy English city that didn’t often offer me a moment of contemplation or solitude. By no means was I a misanthropist – I enjoyed the company of my friends and their amusing jokes and stories – but I had a habit of mentally reliving past events and envisaging the future. Mama and Daddy said that I needed to be more social. That particular day, I was wondering about the “contradictory nature of human beings” and the existence of love so profound that “one would give their own life for the object of their desires”. The latter was just an over exaggeration of love that only ever occurred in fairy stories. I suppose these thoughts were deep for even me. A bit pompous, really. The only reason I considered them was because I picked up the ideas from a psychology magazine that decorated to tables from a café that I performed in on my last day in Wales. My father, a keen guitarist like myself, encouraged me to play a couple of instrumentals I’d written at a venue of my choice. Of course, the venue had to be as conservative and as clean as the environment my brother and I had been raised in: we were Muslims, and although my parents were liberal enough to allow me to learn a musical instrument and attend co – education school, they made sure that my brother and I kept in touch with our Pakistani roots. We had learnt to read the Arabic, we were forbidden to have boyfriends or girlfriends and we ate Halal meat. And for the first fourteen years of my life, I was content with this religious foundation. I wisely chose Café Maze. No alcohol was served and cigarettes were never smoked here. Customers consisted of art students dressed in bright, quirky colours and patterns, who listened to indie rock and talked about environmental issues. Apart from them, a few teenagers would bustle into the eatery, clutching bags full of entertainment items and clothes and they’d discuss a man named Pablo, with the art students. Whoever that was. On the surface, Maze seemed to be an appropriate place. At 7 o’ clock, the coffee house was lit only by three spotlights that were arranged on the ceiling. There were five mahogany tables in the entire café: four circled the other. The teenagers preferred to sit at these tables whilst the civilised art students lounged lazily on the polished black sofas on either end of the room. A potent refreshing aroma of coffee wafted into my nose and cleared my lungs and the continuous chatter filled me with sudden nervousness. I fiddled with microphone, wrenching it down so that it was level with my acoustic guitar. It let out a loud, screeching noise. Silence took hold of the ambience and as I tuned my guitar I could feel dozens of pairs of eyes staring intently at me, waiting for me to produce some melodic noise from my instrument. I began to pick the strings. I had been inspired to write the piece upon my stay at Swansea. The tension faded as my performance progressed but the focus of the audience seemed to increase with every note that I fretted. I finished playing. The room broke into applause and I even received a few whistles. The silence had been driven out of the room and the audience returned promptly to their conversations so that my next piece acted more as background music. Later, the café owner, a small plump man, with a heavy Liverpudlian accent, handed me a business card. “Fayha, if ya ever need a bit o’ cash, then ya can always come ‘n’ perform ‘ere for a few quid.” He chuckled. My father joked about becoming a street musician. I laughed and convinced myself that I was far too ambitious for that and that I’d rather enter a professional and more stable career. However, I kept the card as a souvenir and as I hoped to return to Swansea again, I observed the peculiar contrast of the winding streets and the houses tucked in the valley opposite the shopping centres and commercial billboards. I moreResolved Question: FRENCH TRANSLATION?!?!?!? EASY! Please help!!!!?

I have just started wearing kilts, and I know that there are some Universal tartans, while some are associated with families. I only wear my kilt around town, and have not been to any Ren Fairs/Celtic gatherings, so I don't think anyone would notice if I wore another clan's tartan, right? In my town of 36,000 Only me and one other guy wear kilts. I know I am Scottish, but unfortunately I can not contact anyone from that side of the family to learn my clan. The only last name on that side of the family is Frost, if anyone happens to know. >.< Any way, the question is, do Clans get mad when you wear their tartan? moreResolved Question: Thoughts/opinion/advice on intro (part 2)?

Granted, we should be a little mad about Michael Steele spending party money on bondage nightclubs, but that’s because he is spending money that isn’t his. Americans seem to get mad over all the wrong things. But I digress. The girl in the corner gave a neat little achoo which almost seemed to herald the entrance of another person entering the office. She looked to be about late fifties, early sixties. She was carrying a young child, not anymore than three, in her arms. Her balding hubby followed her in. She had short brown hair and was sporting a beige jacket and large brimmed hat – even went so far as to complete the look with some white sunglasses. She wore darker brown pants and black dress shoes. Her husband wore your classic Levi blue jeans, brown boots (by the look of them steel toed), and a plaid shirt, probably a Stewart tartan. Atop his head lay a quirky fez. They too had a verbal battle with the Receptionist. They want to see the doctor desperately; they think the kid’s arm is broken. “Sorry lady, Doc ain’t in right now,” she muttered heartlessly, “Feel free to enjoy all the wonderful pleasures of the waiting room though,” she added sarcastically. The couple walked toward the seats and sat next to me, save one empty chair as a polite buffer. “Bitch…” I heard her rasp under her breath as she sat down. She seemed spunky. Alas, the room was once again filled with silence. It is hard to pinpoint what sort of silence it was. In the end, it seemed to be a silence of four parts. There was the awkward silence after the exchange with the Receptionist. There was the dull dreary silence of much too much time passing with much too little action. There was the silence of thoughts. Each person was absorbed in there own world thinking thinking thinking. About what I cannot say. Lastly, there was the heavy silence of anxiety and anticipation that sets in right when one has that intuitive feeling that the silence will be broken. It was. The lady turned her brimmed hat adorned head and kicked this greeting right out into the open, “Hi, I’m Bethany. You can call me Beth,” she extended her hand. I took it. “Charmed.” I was so stunned by her outgoingness that I couldn’t manage to utter simple pleasantries. “And you would be?” I sat there dumbstruck for a moment then regained my composure. “Kelsey. Kelsey MacGregor.” “Well then Kelsey. This here is my hubby, Rick.” “How do you do?” Rick took off his fez and gave an elegant little bow. Or at least as elegant as one could get while trying to relax in a seat. “Well Rick, honestly I’m a little irked,” I admitted. Somehow these old folks were making me feel comfortable. They made me feel like I meant something to them. I know we hadn’t spoken much, but I was sure even then that these were people to whom I could talk. “The Receptionist is a genuine Nurse Ratched, wouldn’t you say?” “Ah yes, certainly. She has either has a bone to pick or a stick up her ass. Either way, I agree,” Bethany said heartily and intentionally loud enough for the Receptionist to hear. I caught the Receptionist give an exaggerated roll of the eyes. “Must be a thorny stick,” Rick added. I cracked a smile; my first smile in a long time. I liked these people; Rick and Bethany. In a veritable attempt to be social, I asked, “What’s the little tyke in for?” “Oh, the little squirt? This is my daughter, Missy’s, son, Ricky. Named after his dear old gramps,” she shot Rick Senior an affectionate glance, “We think his arm is broken,” she continued. I noticed how she was gingerly supporting it. I addressed Little Ricky, “Well you’re certainly being brave about this ordeal, aren’t you? Look at him, he hasn’t even grimaced. You’ll make a tough man some day.” The tyke seemed to give some gargle. The closest thing I could liken it to would be some sort of chortle. “How old is he?” “He just turned two.” “Pray tell, how did he break his arm?” “Well, we are not exactly sure. We have a couple of theories. Here’s the skinny…” moreResolved Question: this question is for any Macfarlane clan member?

Use of the term "Scotch" in the name has a pejorative origin. To cut costs 3M applied the adhesive only to the edges of the tape. A remark was made by a St. Paul automobile detailer that the stingy Scotch bosses needed to put more adhesive on it. Scotty McTape, a kilt-wearing cartoon boy, was the brand's mascot for two decades, first appearing in 1944. The familiar plaid design, a take on the Wallace tartan, was introduced in 1945. Now ya know. And now I know too. I have always wondered that but never bothered to look it up. Frigging racist tape-makers. What's something you always wondered about? Sellotape is not an American brand though, that's why. On this side of zee planet is referred to a scotch tape. Just because we were in the midst of a war (point well taken) didn't mean the detailing market went to an ENTIRE standstill. There was still an upper class, and there were still people getting their cars detailed. Furthermore, that wasn't said in 1944, the detailer said it in 1925.

UNTITLED “My name is Kimberly, and im an alcoholic” Those 3 words, those 3 little words. Recited with ease by most people, not for me. For me, these words were a harsh reality, a reality that took a lifetime to say, but an eternity to bear. The old man sitting next to me, dressed in that stupid tartan coat that only farmers wore, applauded like I had just given a speech to become president. Today was a new start, a start to become the old me, the one that cherished life, the one that lived for every minute, the one that people actually remember in the street. Today was my day. Sitting crossed legged on the cold attic floor J pulled his eyes from the pages before him. A sly glistening tear hugged his left cheek, perching itself on his top lip. As he looked around, J could no longer see the bright pinks and purples, or the beautiful butterflies, or the flowers that he always associated with Kim. Instead he was faced with two damp cardboard boxes, filled with ragged, worn out garments that contained more holes than he dared count. It was in this first box that he had unearthed a familiar looking object. Wrapped in a distained silk scarf sat the box J had been rummaging through just moments before. The rich mahogany box stood beautifully in the dim light of the attic. Its ornate birds and vines, intersecting with elegantly crafted butterflies. J stared solemnly at the box. He had given it to Kimberly the previous Christmas. That day had been the last time he had seen her and guilt now penetrated his entire body. . He had been in China that year, working on securing a major contract. As soon as he seen the box gracing the market stall he knew he had to have it. Kim had to have it. It was the least he could do after practically ignoring her for 6 months. She loved it but J couldn’t understand why it was now placed in the musty attic amongst disused furniture . “I’m sorry” he said aloud, “I’m so sorry baby girl” Questions began ravishing his already confussed mind as he slowly folded over the book that delicately sat in his hands. He lovingly caressed the book between his hands and held it close to his chest. A small whimper left his mouth. Salted drops fell to the floor. Why didn’t he know. Why didn’t he see? He should have seen. A father is supposed to protect and nurture their children. But J had been more concerned with work. Always had been. Now it was too late. Regret filled J’s heart. Why had he ignored her? He would have known if he had spent some time. In the space of two minutes, he had discovered she was in need of his help. But he was no where to be found. As he walked towards the stairs, a light wind hustled through the tiny window of the attic, caressing his greying hair. No longer did he have his natural dark locks, instead they were ravished by the grey ones now protruding from every angle. How could he have let all this happen? One question raced round J’s head more than any of the others. Even if his life had depended on it J couldn’t understand what it was that had made Kim turn to alcohol. Was it school, was it friends? Was it me? Blake, the descrptions are very well descriptive for a reason. Im trying to portray the old kim to the new. The light to the dark? ps j is not the characters name. I havent decided on a name yet. Lol. So its just there to show who we talking bout moreResolved Question: okay here goes, beginning of my story?

1: Flannel Man Here cometh the flannel man. Do go run inside. Here cometh the flannel man. It'd be best for you to hide. His eyes are flannel. His face is too. You'd better escape, Before he eats you. Here cometh the flannel man. Do go run inside. Here cometh the flannel man. Hide that shirt right now! For you know, he will get you, If you're dressed in flannel, somehow! By day he is tartan. By night, he is plaid. He preys upon those who are flannel clad. Here cometh the flannel man. Do go run inside. Here cometh the flannel man. Beware you, grunge pioneers! You'd be wise to switch to cotton, To remedy your fears. He'll come through your window. He'll come through your door. Better not wear that fabric anymore. Here cometh the flannel man. Do go run inside. #2: Loonies In The Corn There be loonies in that corn! They hide between the rows! There be loonies in that there corn! They scare away the crows! They speak in gibberish and twitch alot! They're afraid of clouds! But, they can never ever be caught! Because of their secret shrouds! The loonies hop up and down! They chase their own hands! They're always smiling, never a frown! They know no other lands! There be crazies in the ears! Sometimes, they think they're dogs! They get anxious as daybreak nears! They think they'll turn into logs! There be loonies in the corn! They live in corn husk huts! There be loonies in that there corn! Everyone knows they're nuts! #3: I Like Head Butting Famous People Part 1 The mighty Bruce Dickinson is a special man. And what ever he can't do, his spikey wristband can. I head butted him at Applebees. I rammed him with my skull. I told him to eat his burger but, he said he was full. And now for Gene Simmons. He has helmet hair. He looks very, very old but his girlfriend doesn't care. I head butted him at Walmart. It was lots of fun. He chased me in his very tall boots and I began to run. Then there is James Hetfield. He's a crazy dude. And his crazy crazy face puts me in a crazy mood. I head butted him at Target or as he would say, "Tarj-ay". He told me to leave him alone but, I rammed anyway. There is also Angus Young. He is 3 feet tall. And he was quite surprised, when I ambushed him at the mall. I head butted him in Macy's. He almost fell over. I thought he was leprechaun so, I asked for a 4 leafed clover. And now for Eddie Vedder. He pops out of ceilings. The sight of his billowy hair gives me crazy feelings. I head butted him in Dillards. I had an enjoyable time. I thought that he would run but, up the wall, he began to climb And lastly, for Les Claypool. He plays some crazy bass. He told me that his name was Mud, when I rammed him in the face. I head butted him at Denny's, while he was having toast. He is the famous guy, I like head butting the most. Which one do you like best? #1 is based on a man that broke into my house, who was completely made of flannel and asked me if I knew where Eddie Vedder was. I wrote this song and sent it via telegram to Eddie Vedder, to warn him that was going to be eaten, unless he hid all his flannel. I wrote #2 after the 5 years I was a member of a tribe of corn worshippers, after I escaped the asylum. #3 is based on my experiences with famous musicians. I really did head butt them. Hey, Mud!

Here's the poem: Shirt The back, the yoke, the yardage. Lapped seams, The nearly invisible stitches along the collar Turned in a sweatshop by Koreans or Malaysians Gossiping over tea and noodles on their break Or talking money or politics while one fitted This armpiece with its overseam to the band Of cuff I button at my wrist. The presser, the cutter, The wringer, the mangle. The needle, the union, The treadle, the bobbin. The code. The infamous blaze At the Triangle Factory in nineteen-eleven. One hundred and forty-six died in the flames On the ninth floor, no hydrants, no fire escapes-- The witness in a building across the street Who watched how a young man helped a girl to step Up to the windowsill, then held her out Away from the masonry wall and let her drop. And then another. As if he were helping them up To enter a streetcar, and not eternity. A third before he dropped her put her arms Around his neck and kissed him. Then he held Her into space, and dropped her. Almost at once He stepped up to the sill himself, his jacket flared And fluttered up from his shirt as he came down, Air filling up the legs of his gray trousers-- Like Hart Crane's Bedlamite, "shrill shirt ballooning." Wonderful how the patern matches perfectly Across the placket and over the twin bar-tacked Corners of both pockets, like a strict rhyme Or a major chord. Prints, plaids, checks, Houndstooth, Tattersall, Madras.

The planter, the picker, the sorter Sweating at her machine in a litter of cotton As slaves in calico headrags sweated in fields: George Herbert, your descendant is a Black Lady in South Carolina, her name is Irma And she inspected my shirt. Its color and fit And feel and its clean smell have satisfied both her and me.

Sorry about this but I keep having dreams where I die or the people around me die and what to know what the dreams mean theyre always different but about the same thing and I want to know what they mean. Well this one was pretty short but I still woke up crying but not as bad as the last two. Anyway I became a ghost and started haunting palces like my best friend Miki's (short for Michaela) place, my cousins April and Sara's place, my place, my school especially my RE class which had only like 10 people including me and the place where I used to do scouts. I wouldnt go to where dead people are meant to go like heaven I refused to leave until I knew the people I care about were going to be ok. Miki was the hardest she got so depressed over my death and one night she locked herself in the bathroom with a razor blade. I was standing (invisible to her) behind her and she put her knife on her jugular, she was going to kill herself and I got furious and made this wind which blew the blade right from her hand and smashed somehow against the window, then I whispered in her ear: "Stop it Miki, everythings going to be ok, I'll be watching over you". Then I floated back and it was like she heard because she whispered my name and sort of ran her hand through the space of air where I was seconds ago and then she slide down the wall onto the floor and was crying and crying. And for some reason as I watched I knew that everything was going to be ok and I didnt need to stay here. Then I just walked into this light and then I woke up. I'm not sure how I died in the dream but all I remember was that I was wearing a summer dress that was pink and tartan and I was thin as a rake which i'm not now. The tip of my nose, toes (I wasnt wearing any shoes) and the tips of fingers were all frozen and my skin was a very pale and had a bluish tinge to it and my lips were blue. moreTartan Names News
