Costumes?

Why don`t you just go to the party nude??? LOL!

Surely, one should wear a ribbon. Dawne

An old boyfriend used to say "I'll be there with bells on", then leer and make sure I understood bells were all he meant to have on. :)

And then he'd chicken out and show up in a suit and tie anyway.

"Best in Show" perhaps?

Er - yes, OK, but where would YOU put it? ROFLMAO!

Well, in that song about the Scotsman, the girls figured out where to tie his "first prize" ribbon!

Don`t know that one - thank God, by the sound of it! LOL!

Tied on? Or pinned?

It's by Bryan Bowers and is very popular on the Dr. Demento show. Lyrics:

Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar on evening fair And one could tell by how we walked that he drunk more than his share He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye See yon sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see And there behold, for them to see, beneath his Scottish skirt Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth

They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree Behind a bush, he lift his kilt and gawks at what he sees And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes. O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize

Correcting self: The commonly-heard recording is by Bryan Bowers. The song is by Mike Cross.

LOLOLOL! Well, now we know the kind of parties YOU go to!

Reminds me of the terrible old joke about one of the 80-year old female residents in an old folks home doing a "streak" through the TV lounge. One female resident in the TV lounge turned to her friend and said "Wasn't that Mrs Johnson? What on earth was she wearing?" Her friend replied "I didn't have my glasses on so I couldn't see properly but, whatever it was, it needed ironing."
