A little trivia about how Dick Van Dyke slipped one past the censors.

In an episode called "Bupkis," Rob hears a song on the radio, called Bupkis, and reveals to his wife that he wrote it when he was in the army. An old army buddy has taken the song and turned it into a hit.

Laura asks Rob what Bupkis means, and he tells her it's an old Yiddish word meaning "nothing." That's sort of true, but the actual translation is "goat sh*t." It's common use in Yiddish was pretty much what it is in English, as in "I didn't get sh*t."

So, anyway, there's an entire Dick Van Dyke episode about the word "goat sh*t."
