1622...Happy Robbie Burns Day

Yes, today is the 2010 minus 1759th anniversary of the birth of, next to Sheena Easton and William Wallace of Braveheart fame, the most famous and acclaimed Scot in the history of history, Robbie Burns.

The above is verifiable, to wit: In 2009, STV ran a televison series and public vote to decide who should be named as being the Greatest Scot. On St Andrew's day, STV revealed the results of the public vote, and Robert Burns was voted as being officially the Greatest Scot of all time, narrowly beating William Wallace, Scottish Patriot and Independence campaigner, for the title.

Have a glass in celebration of the Greatest Scot. Or three.

  2. That's kind of gutless, not the name calling but the cowardly cloak of anonymity.

    I sign my name.

    Why don't you? What are you afraid of?
