    Talking T-shirt idea

    Just had this thought come to me today while working on my website. Might make a cool t-shirt slogan...

    Crushed Nuts Are For Ice Cream Sundaes!

    I think it would go over most people's heads. I for one do not immediately associate pants with crushed nuts, and I'd suspect the majority of pants wearers (and especially those without nuts) wouldn't either.

    You might be better off using Hot Nuts in a slogan. Not only is it more identifiable with kilts to the general populace, but it's got built in comedy.

    Or something or other...

    I love it. Cracked me up to see in in your signature.

    Maybe with an attribution to the American Association for Testicular Health.

    It's a bit of a scandalous idea, but how about somebody start a support group for guys who wear trousers and call it the American Society of Testicular Adjusters and see who actually gets it!

    I think more people than not would "get it", and the ones that don't wouldn't even if ti was explained to them. It would only work if you wore the shirt with a kilt, not pants.

    Besides...I love to use/say things that most people don't get. Keep 'em confused! The vanity plate I run on my SUV is a good example. Unless you're a car enthusiast you wouldn't understand the meaning behind "BOYDWHO". It made alot more sense when I had it on my '48 Chevy 1/2 ton rat rod.

    A lot of older guys might associate "Hot Nuts" with Red Fox, the black comedian who played Fred Sanford on Sanford and son. Before he bacame a TV star, Red made adult comedy albums, and the one that most remember was called "Hot Nuts"

    Maybe you could just preface it with;
