    When people ask if there is something going on or a holiday, I tell them it's for kilt-fest (January 1st through December 31st)

    It would be cool to have a shirt to that effect, in the style of one you buy at a concert or similar such event.

    I once knew a gent from Flint
    By the name of Gary Wang
    When he got into his drink
    All holler'd “Be wary gang!”

    So "Gang Wary" really means Tread Softly?

    Like in "Tread softly, but carry a big stick."

    or more like "Watch out, you big lummox, don't step on my foot."
