On Kilts and Shotguns

Is ORF Inc. web master kidding us?

What type of idiots works for Peter Carroll. Seriously guys, I have nothing against men in kilts. Heck, I have nothing against shot guns. Or is that a high powered rifle? Seriously guys, why on earth are they promoting their Highlander weekend with a picture of a guy and his shotgun? I thought the only hand held firearms of the time were match locks and those were few and far between.

Oh heck, did you know that fiber glass stage they call a pirate ship sits in an ocean?  According to their web site, they seem to have an ocean now.

    Are you kidding me?!

    Ok, so we’ve looked at your website - giving it a sporting chance and all - and we have decided that you are just a bitter, raving lunatic that is slowly ruining the festival for everyone (yes, I said “ruining”). Honestly, if you have to turn your rants to the random choices of graphics by the webmaster, you are just desperate for things to bitch about.

    Maybe they didn’t have any good shots that they liked of people in kilts from the faire the years before, maybe they wanted to pick something that they felt looked rugged and Highland-like. Whatever the reason, back the f**k off, it’s just a picture on a theme box on a website. You sound like a pissed off teenager whose finding any excuse/story that will make people hate your parents as much as you do. Honestly.

    And as far as the pirate ship thing… who cares if they show it on an ocean, really? I bet if you took a poll, no one would care. Besides, you’re a little late, that picture has been there for like… 5 years, at least.

    Uh ye, THIS site is Peter Carroll is an Asshole dot com. Duh. It is supposed to be a silly rambling, nutty sort of site. The real protest site is at http://orfprotest.com where specific violations of law and code are referenced in a very neat and orderly way complete with photos and other documentation.

    This site existed as a distraction so if Slick Pete tried to get an injunction right before the fair opened, he would go after this one rather than the one the authorities and press are looking at.

    Worked great. Got him all hot under the collar and he didn’t bother to try to address the many issues spelled out at the other site before the authorities and others started snapping pictures. Example: He got them sleeves on the pretzels but didn’t notice the cookies.

    It was kind of a one two punch, worked great.
