    I'm thinking of the Wicket Tinkers t-shirt with the "Certified Ethnic" endorsement in the lower corner....

    If that phrase is not "owned" by the Wicked Tinkers (??) perhaps a "Certified Ethnic" kilt pin...we could just point to it.

    "Set to."

    In his novel Black Ajax, George MacDonald Fraser reports that in the bare-knuckle days of prizefighting in the UK (ca. 1820), "Set to." was the referee's command to begin or resume fighting.
    "No man is genuinely happy, married, who has to drink worse whiskey than he used to drink when he was single." ---- H. L. Mencken
