dinner conversation

Phil took Ben to the local grocer where the meat department has no prepackaged meats. All are in the case, you pick, they bundle in white paper. Yum. Apparently as the service man was wrapping up the meat Ben exclaims (in his manly voice...if you've heard it you know it), "that's a MAN". Maybe there is something very mannish about wrapping up a package of fresh kill!! At least it made that guy feel manly. Then at the dinner table we were talking about it and somehow it came up that dad was a man. Amelia quickly rebuked us that he wasn't. So I asked, is he a boy...long thoughtful pause and she says, "he's a man boy!!"
Spot on, Amelia. Classic.
