Excellent idea!

Before long, traditional holidays will be dispensed with and be replaced with a 4-day Holiday that starts on the third Friday of each month called simply, "Gimme." Stores will host their own, say, Gimme For March with a picture of St. Patrick with his hands filled with sale items to promote the occasion.

Mothers will badger their bachelor sons with cries of "When'r'ya comin' t' see me on Gimme?" Children will harrass their grandparents with peals of "Whadja bringme for Gimme?" Girlfriends will chastise their boyfriends with subtle hints of "don't gimme whatcha gave me last Gimme." Lost-weekend stories will start with "Damn! D'ja 'member what we did for the Gimme Weekend in July, 2004?

Whaddaya doin' THIS Gimme?
