    For the older folks

    This morning when my wife joined me in our upstairs office where we process our eBay activities, my wife commented that she had noticed the neatly pinned pleats that I had done last night. With the lyrics of Chuck Berry's famous song from back in my era running suddenly through my head, I suggested that now I need a small celtic bell to wear carefully suspended beneath. To this she graciuosly replied, SMALL BELL !!!??? You need to get a cow bell! With that we both erupted in laughter at the obvious new rendition of "the question": I like your kilt, but what's all that racket when you walk? The answer is obvious...My dingaling!

    Just because I'm an evil fellow...here are the entire lyrics to the song.

    When I was a little bitty boy
    my grandmother bought me a cute little toy
    Silver bells hangin' on a string
    she told me it was my ding a ling

    My ding a ling, my ding a ling
    I want to play with my ding a ling
    My ding a ling, my ding a ling
    I want to play with my ding a ling

    And then mother took me to Grammer School
    But I stopped all in the vestibule
    Every time that bell would ring
    catched me playin' with my ding a ling

    Once I was climbing the garden wall
    I slipped and had a terrible fall
    I fell so hard I heard bells ring
    but held on to my ding a ling

    Once I was swimming cross Turtle creek
    many snappers all around my feet
    Shure was hard swimming cross that thing
    with both hands holdin' my ding a ling

    This here song it ain't so sad
    the cutest little song you ever had
    those of you who will not sing
    You must be playin' with your own ding a ling
    My ding a ling Your ding a ling,
    We saw you playin' with your ding a ling
    My ding a ling everybody sing
    I want to play with my ding a ling a ling

    Okay folks, remember you heard it from here first. I finally expect to make my millions with this one. Genuine, authentic, bona fide, certified, tiny sterling celtic bells on a little string. No guys, this is NOT a time for us to get into bell sizes!

    In the future I expect every kilt wearer around the world, and every attendee at the Scottish games in the future to wear them proudly. Maybe we even need a little card to hand out to those who pop "the question" with a few sample answers and the lyrics on the back.

    Now imagine the sound made by hundreds of these at parades and sporting events.
