Congratulations Ken.

"Is that fire real?" - I've heard that one at least twice at
re-enactments. To be fair, many people just want to say something to get a conversation started, and sometimes funny things pop out. The only thing better than wool on a hot day, is putting on sweaty wool the next morning after the temperature drops thirty degrees during the night. That always seems to happen at fall events.

Or when you can <i>pronounce</i> it.

Congrats Ken!

I've also heard "Do you shoot real bullets?"

Several female spectators approach Private Ken
of the 54th OVI, 2nd Ohio Zouaves on a sweltering
August day at a Civil War reenactment....

They inquire - " Are you hot in those clothes ? "

My response - " Some women think so " [:p][8D][:p]
