I think a lot of us have a tradition of emptying the discretionary spending account on some male jewelry on a regular basis.

Tomorrow night I plan to de-flower a virgin and sacrifice a goat in order that the Rolex gods should bestow a MilSub upon me...

Since I shall no doubt have partaken enthusiastically in the consumption of the ceremonial libations prior to the offering my biggest worry is getting mixed up, sacrificing the virgin and de-flowering the goat!!!
