"Yeah, its a word that essentially amounts to her parents like ya more than she does." What's not to like? The word has all the elements for a parent's proper regard for their child's friend: idiosy, syn, and crasiness

It’s fun when they get so excited, eh?
I think kids keep us young.

My impression is that she’s had as much fun as she can have without complete disaster or career crisis. Back in the Atlantic would reassure me; there are no pangolin here.
And being a Gunner’s Mate would require setting a good example for the rest of the crew.

Being a Cub Scout leader requires a person to enjoy simple pleasures, like being outside, setting things on fire, and getting dirty. I’m not as fond of getting dirty as most little boys, though.
They have a campout coming later in the monthm, with the opportunity to accidentally fall in a lake. Mecklenburg County doesn’t allow swimming in its lakes, but if all the kids are in the water with their clothes on, that’s not exactly swimming, is it? They’re ... doing science experiments!

"We have natural gas for the winter." Behold the power of the lowly pinto bean.
"More beans, Mr. Taggart?"

Interestingly, the railroad-builder in “Blazing Saddles”, that aforementioned Mr. Taggart, is in no way related to later scion of industry and railroad magnate James Taggart, of Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged”.
I wonder what Mel Brooks could have done with Atlas Shrugged?
Probably not as much sardonic irony as our brilliant young President has achieved. What a comedic genius. I laugh and laugh.
